About
The numbers came first. The houses came after.
I am a REALTOR® with Plum Tree Realty and a Dayton real estate investor, and the second half of that sentence is why the first half works.

Before real estate I worked in banking.

How I work
How I work: numbers first.
Today I buy, renovate and sell houses in Dayton, and the next step is holding them: buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat. Two of the properties on this site were mine. So when we look at a house together, I am looking at the same things I look at for my own money.
What it costs to carry
Reading a loan file the way an underwriter reads it, knowing what debt-to-income does to an approval, and understanding that a payment is a lot more than principal and interest.
What it needs
Renovating a house teaches you what a listing description leaves out: what the furnace costs, what the roof costs, and which updates come back at resale.
What it should sell for later
If the answer is that the house is overpriced, you hear it. If the answer is that you are a year away and should spend it on your credit, you hear that too, and Homeward, the free coaching program, exists for that year.
Outside of work
Outside of work I am usually outside.
Backpacking, camping, kayaking, trail running, and the Miamisburg Turkey Trot most years. Indoors it is pottery and painting classes, reading, cooking and baking, and yoga. I go to festivals and live music around Dayton whenever there is one on, and I travel when I can: Thailand, Spain and Arizona to name a few.

Licensed in Ohio, across the greater Dayton area.
I work across the greater Dayton area, from Miamisburg and Springboro up through Kettering, Centerville and Beavercreek to Englewood, Vandalia and Troy. I also teach a free first time home buyer class at Dayton Metro Library branches, because the belief behind all of it is simple: people are capable of far more than they know. They need a plan, some guidance and help getting there.
Let's start with your numbers.
A budget, an address, or the thing you think is standing in your way.
