When you start to think about buying or selling a home, you have many choices when it comes to who can help you. Finding someone who you can trust and has knowledge of the local market can be challenging.
My family and I have travelled around extensively, but found that our hometown was the place where we needed to settle. We know the value of a tight knit community and have an extensive knowledge of the richness of the foothills just outside Yosemite National Park.
As you look for a home here, one things for certain, I'll help you put down new deep roots in good soil.
I'd love to chat with you about how you can live like a local by scheduling your free consultation.
I became a real estate agent because I wanted people to realize that purchasing a home in an area like Oakhurst or Coarsegold, doesn't have to be an overwhelming process. When you decide to move, it can be hard to know where to start in the homebuying process. Even if you are a seasoned home buyer, things can get overlooked if you don't have a local agent you can trust that knows how the market works. Eastern Madera County is a rural area in Central California, and as such, the process of buying a home differs than in the city. While you may not have to worry about things like septic systems or water wells in a more urban area, here in the mountain community, these can be a given. You need a real estate agent who knows how to not only navigate these systems, but can also help you overcome potential issues that may arise in the future. I understand the nuances of living in the mountains and the importance of cultivating a tight knit community because this is where I grew up.
I know what it's like to try and replicate the community where you grew up. My family and I have moved around, trying to find the right place to settle in, but found ourselves, like many others, drawn back to the place where we originally set roots. There is something incredibly comforting about driving over Deadwood as you descend into Oakhurst, or hiking the Lewis Creek Trail, or cheering on the Badger football team on a chilly fall evening. The vibrant history, the beauty of the foothills and the peacefulness of this area make the soil rich. Let's dream together and see how I can help you navigate this season because I understand what it is like to return home. I am a part of this community as much as it is a part of me.
Leaving a lasting legacy where you choose to live is an incredibly important endeavor-something not to be taken lightly. There are many different considerations to take into account. Are you looking for a smaller place now that your children have gone off to college? Maybe you have finally saved up enough money to buy your first home? Do you need more space now that you are growing your family? Depending on your specific situation means you have to take a tailored approach to purchasing a home. Allow me to be your local expert on the market and guide you to just the right home-whether that be your first home or the dream home you've always wanted!

You may not be at the stage where you are ready to write an offer for your new home, and that's ok, really! It takes time to understand the market, know your unique financing position and find your ideal home-which is why I sit down with all of my buyers for an initial consultation. I love educating my clients on the best possible routes to take as they navigate the, sometimes complex, real estate market here in Eastern Madera County. Whether you are wanting to get into a new home right away, or maybe thinking about a move next year, don't be shy, schedule your free initial consultation. I'd love to meet with you, in person (or on Zoom!) and talk about your specific situation and what will work best for you. Click below to get started now.
I never want to just sell you a home and not talk to you again or move on to the next client. I take pride in making sure you know how to care of the biggest investment you'll make. Every week I send out a variety of information on how to maintain your home. Such as, when is the right time to refinance or what types of service contracts you should have before the next season.
I will be with you every step of the way, like the master gardener showing you how to enrich your new plants, so that they take deep roots. My passion is for you to succeed in homeownership and I'm happy to see you flourish in this mountain community.
"Although the market was tough, Justin never let me get discouraged and never made me feel like I was asking too much. He was kind and patient and, when we were outbid several times, he was supportive and encouraging. When we finally found "The One", Justin gave great advice on how to make a competitive bid. After we closed, Justin checked in a few more times to be sure we were satisfied."
