Real estate decisions based on reality, not emotion.
Most people find us during a hard chapter: a missed mortgage payment, a parent's estate, a rental that has become a burden. We help you see the real numbers, the real timeline, and every option you still have.
Free, confidential, and no pressure.

Three kinds of decisions we handle every week
Pick the one closest to where you are. Each path explains the process in plain language before it ever asks you for anything.
Questions people ask before reaching out
Experience most brokerages simply do not have
High-stakes situations are not a side specialty here. They are the work.
- Former USDOJ bankruptcy counselor. Dave spent years reading household budgets and lender paperwork before he ever listed a house.
- Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist. He knows what the court expects, what a Personal Representative can and cannot do, and how to keep an estate on schedule.
- Direct lender experience. Loss mitigation departments have their own language and their own timelines. We have worked inside both.
- Local, not regional. Monroe County and Downriver pricing, buyers, and inspectors are specific. We work here every day.
What a first conversation actually sounds like
- 01You tell us what is happening, in your own words. No forms first.
- 02We ask about the numbers: the loan, the payments, the repairs, the deadlines.
- 03We tell you plainly what we see, including the options that do not involve us.
- 04You decide what happens next, on your timeline.
Confidential either way. Nothing is shared with a lender, a family member, or anyone else without your say.
Clarity first, decisions second
The same three steps whether you are facing foreclosure, settling an estate, or weighing an investment.
- 01
Understand the situation
A free call or meeting where we listen, ask about the numbers, and find out what deadlines are actually in play.
- 02
See every real option
Keep it, sell it, negotiate it, or wait. We lay out each path with its likely outcome, cost, and timeline, in writing when it helps.
- 03
Execute carefully
Once you choose, we handle the details: lender calls, court paperwork timing, cleanout, pricing, and closing.

Save or Sell My Home
Not sure whether to save your home or sell it? Our free Save or Sell tool walks you through your numbers and your timeline, privately, in about two minutes.
Real situations, handled quietly
Written client reviews are being collected with permission. In the meantime, here is the kind of work Dave does, described plainly.
Helped a family sell during the redemption period and keep the equity that was left, instead of losing it at the sale.
Guided a Personal Representative through pricing, cleanout, and sale of an inherited home while the estate stayed on schedule.
Reviewed a homeowner's real budget, then worked with the servicer on a plan that let them stay in the home.
Walked an owner through repair estimates and both retail and cash numbers so the decision was based on figures, not pressure.
Southeast Michigan, known street by street
Local knowledge matters most when the timeline is tight and the pricing has to be right the first time.
Including Monroe, Wyandotte, Trenton, Riverview, Grosse Ile, Lincoln Park, Taylor, Flat Rock, Southgate, and the surrounding Downriver communities. Our office is at 1285 Telegraph Road Ste. 215 in Monroe, and we are glad to meet at the property instead if that is easier.
