There’s no better way to really understand an area, a neighborhood, a town — the energy, the sights, the sounds, the smells. To capture all of that in a car passing by at speed is impossible, but to capture that on a bicycle is the essence of cycling.

BeforeAfter
Versailles Avenue, Ann Arbor. Drag to compare.
The difference is in the details.
Before and after, room by room. These are homes I've personally renovated. Not client projects, my own. It's the same eye and the same elbow grease I bring to getting your home ready.

I was the newcomer. Now I'm happy to be your guide.
When my family moved to Ann Arbor, I got to know the town on two wheels, with friends and with my young son. Before real estate, I spent two decades in international education helping people find their footing somewhere new. I still work that way: listen first, explain clearly, then help.
