Why RamseyTrusted
Dave Ramsey doesn't put his name behind just anyone. RamseyTrusted agents are interviewed, vetted, and held accountable to a standard of service most of the industry never sees.
I earned that endorsement — and I bring the same disciplined, no-pressure approach to every client, whether you're working the Baby Steps or simply buying and selling the smart way.

About Jake
Straight answers, a real plan, and zero pressure. That's the standard RamseyTrusted holds me to, and it's the only way I know how to work.
My Ramsey Story
My parents took me to a Dave Ramsey conference in high school and worked the Baby Steps while I watched. It didn't click until I got married — my wife and I came home from our Maui honeymoon broke, and when our car died, a $1,356 repair went straight on a credit card. I promised her that would never happen again. Today we budget with EveryDollar, are debt-free except our mortgage, have a 6-month emergency fund, and are working Baby Steps 4, 5 & 6.
Why Work With Me
I believe real estate is about the relationship, not just the transaction. A home is likely the biggest purchase of your life, and if you can't trust your agent, nothing else matters. My focus is to educate and advocate for you at every step. Buying or selling a home involves a lot of moving parts — with 136 transactions closed and $48.9M in volume, I'm confident I can guide you through the entire process with clarity and care.
My Process
It starts with a conversation — understanding your goals, timeline, and budget before we make a move. For buyers, that means getting pre-approved, touring the right homes, and writing a strong offer. For sellers, it means pricing smart, marketing well, and negotiating hard. Either way, I keep you informed at every step — inspections, appraisal, closing — explaining what's happening and why. My job is to advocate for you and make sure you feel confident from our first call to the keys changing hands.
My Personality
I'm someone who genuinely enjoys people, and it shows in how I work. I'm patient, honest, and easy to talk to — you'll never feel pressured or rushed. I ask a lot of questions because I actually want to understand what matters to you. Outside of real estate, I'm a family man — a proud husband to my beautiful wife and dad to our 2-year-old son — and I value doing things the right way, even when it's harder. That same steadiness carries into how I treat my clients: dependable and always in your corner.
Where To Start
