He has been increasingly successful despite starting his career in a declining economy and understands the demands of a dynamic real estate market. Chris initially gained his experience and expertise in transactions dealing with distressed properties, such as short sales and foreclosures. Although these situations often bring distress among families, Chris feels he was able to assist them through the difficult process and, ultimately, lead them to finding joy again through home ownership.

Staying abreast of current market conditions and shifting legislature is Chris' passion. His ability to apply that information to each of his client's situations and make the best deal is unmatched. Ultimately, Chris wants his clients to gain a sense of pride in their homes and their community. He is proud to say that Northern Nevada is a beautiful place in which to live and raise children.
