Real Estate,
Redefined.
Temple, Belton & Bell County. Structured market intelligence from a solo agent with 100+ transactions and $28.5M+ closed.
Why Temple, why now, and why solo
beats a team in a market this tight.
Temple isn't Austin's overflow. It's its own market — 94,000 people, two hospital systems, one Army post, and a $2.4B industrial pipeline reshaping the next decade.
I work solo on purpose. No team funneling your deal to a junior agent. I've closed 100+ transactions and $28.5M+ in production — every contract, every walk-through, every negotiation. The agent you interview is the agent who closes the deal.
Whether you're relocating for BSW, PCSing from Fort Hood, or underwriting your third rental, you get the same thing: hard numbers, honest negatives, and a plan that holds up to scrutiny. That's the work.
The numbers don't negotiate.
They just tell you where you stand.

◆Supply loosened, prices held. That's not a buyer's market — that's a disciplined one. Temple fundamentals are still tight enough to reward informed offers and punish lazy ones.
Pick your lane.
The strategy bends to match.
Every audience has its own playbook. Most agents run one. I run five.
Buying in Temple
From $180K starter to $800K new-build acreage, every price band has its own strategy.
Most buyers miss that Temple runs on four price-band playbooks, not one. The strategy at $220K isn't the strategy at $480K.
Selling in Temple
Your house isn't a vibe. It's a financial asset with a closing date.
Weekly seller updates, data-backed price positioning, and no ghost weeks between calls. Every Sunday you get the numbers.
Investing in Temple
Cash flow over comps. Underwriting before offers.
Creative deal finder scans 5,200+ properties weekly for seller finance, sub-to, and wholesale angles. You get the list — I underwrite the ones that pencil.
Military Relocation
Fort Hood's rotation pattern is the clock. I read it so you don't have to.
VA loan mechanics, PCS timelines, BAH-anchored neighborhoods, and virtual tours built around your window. No wasted trips.
BSW Medical Relocation
Physician loan, 0% down, no PMI. Through the only legal BSW pipeline.
Stark Law blocks BSW-employed staff from distributing outside resources. The lender channel is the fix — and the only legal path to you.
Six neighborhoods, six thesis statements.

The receipts, not the reel.
Every deal tells a strategy story. Here are eight of mine.
BSW cardiologist relocation. Physician loan, 0% down, closed in 19 days.

Expired listing from another agent. Relisted with new photos and pricing, closed in 29.
Out-of-state investor. Full underwriting package before tour. Cash close.
This is where the thinking lives.
Public. Datestamped. Open to scrutiny.
Video. Newsletter. Blog. Market update. One cadence.
The six questions that decide
whether we're a fit.
Full-time. This is my only career. I've closed 100+ transactions and $28.5M+ in production working solo. Part-time agents lose you negotiating leverage — you don't want someone checking email between shifts at a day job when a counteroffer lands.
Texas allows intermediary representation with written consent from both sides. I disclose it immediately, explain what it changes, and give either party the option to use a different agent. Most clients appreciate the transparency; some prefer separate representation. Both are valid.
Teams optimize for volume. Solo optimizes for attention. On a team, the senior agent wins the listing presentation, then a newer agent runs showings, writes offers, and handles inspection negotiations. I run all of it. You hire one brain and get one brain, start to close.
Yes. Fort Hood, any branch, any rank. Up to 40% of my buyer-side commission back at closing, subject to your lender's approval (some VA investors cap rebates at specific thresholds). We structure it upfront so there are no surprises.
Before we tour: purchase, rehab, holding costs, financing (7.0% conventional investor, 7.25% DSCR default), rent comps (LTR and MTR separately near BSW), and exit scenarios. Every deal gets a pro forma. If the numbers don't pencil, I tell you — even if that loses the deal. Especially then.
Three steps. One — a 20-minute call to understand what you're solving. Two — I send a written plan: search criteria or pricing strategy, timeline, what I'll deliver weekly. Three — if the plan works for you, we sign representation paperwork and the work begins. No pressure, no follow-up sequences.
