REALTOR® · ABR® · West Michigan Lakeshore
Waterfront, lakeshore land, vacation property and new construction, from Grand Haven north to Silver Lake and inland to Fremont and White Cloud. I read the property myself before you drive up.

West Michigan REALTOR®
I was born here and have lived here my whole life, which is the difference between knowing the market data and knowing which lake, which shoreline, and what a seasonal road looks like in February.
Before anyone writes an offer on water or vacant land, I go and read the property myself, and tell you what I find, including when it means walking away.
Pick one and answer a few quick taps. I'll point you to exactly what to read, watch and do next. About a minute.
After dark
Buyers drive by after work. My yard signs light up at night, and one scan from the car opens the home on their phone, right there at the curb.
Always learning
I travel to train with some of the best in the business, then bring it home to the lakeshore.






The situation you are actually in
The fundamentals do not change. The sequence, the timing and how much coordination it takes change completely. Start where you actually are.

The part that goes wrong out here is rarely the loan, it is the property, and that is the part I read before you offer.

The West Michigan lakeshore from Grand Haven north to Silver Lake, including North Muskegon, Whitehall, Montague, Rothbury and Shelby, inland to Twin Lake, Holton, Newaygo, Fremont and White Cloud, and the smaller lake and shoreline communities in between. That is Muskegon, Ottawa, Newaygo and Oceana counties.
That is most of what I do. I go and read the property in person before you drive up, and tell you what I found: the frontage, the bottomland, how you reach it, what the road is like outside of summer. You see the honest version before you spend a Saturday on it, and you are not choosing water from photographs.
It starts before your home reaches the MLS, in front of a paid and targeted audience, so buyers are already waiting rather than being found afterwards. You get a written report every week on showings, feedback and campaign performance. And you can cancel at any time if you are not satisfied.
