Unlocking the Next Chapter: Expert guidance for seniors and their families in real estate transitions.
Submit the form or call me directly using the number above
I have over 25 years of expertise in real estate. In addition, I am a Senior Real Estate Specialist®, or SRES®. An SRES® is a realtor who has received extensive, specialized training covering topics that are of special importance to older adults and their families.
Transitioning from the family home to senior living, or a smaller home, can be a daunting task for older adults. The process of downsizing, selling the family home, and finding the right senior living community can be overwhelming. However, using a senior real estate specialist (SRES) can make the transition easier. SRESs have expertise in assisting older clients with their unique needs and concerns.
Additionally, a significant benefit of using a SRES® is their ability to connect you with their network of senior-friendly movers, Elder Law attorneys and estate planners, senior placement advisors, senior living communities, and other experts to help you through the transition. They can provide guidance and support throughout the entire process, helping older adults and their families navigate the complex real estate market and find the right living situation to fit their needs and lifestyle.
Please call me today if you have any real estate questions or needs. (971) 272-3956

"Ben is a person of Integrity. Ben provided his Expertise and Care in helping my parents sell their house in Tualatin this last December. Ben walked through the process with my parents and went above and beyond to ensure they had the resources to continue their journey. Thank you Ben (from a grateful son)"
Ben is an excellent realtor, and an excellent person. He was very helpful, diligent, friendly, and professional. He listened to us and helped us find our forever home.
He also is active in the community, helping seniors, veterans, and others.
We are very happy to recommend him to anyone needing a realtor.
Phil and Karen R.
“Ten years ago, we were moving to the area, intent on purchasing a home, and a mutual friend connected us with Ben. He accommodated our limited time and drove us to visit numerous properties that fit our general criteria. After signing a contract to purchase, we had to return to our out-of-state residence. Ben’s professional, and local, attention to the numerous details on our behalf during the escrow phase built a sense of confidence in him that did not disappoint.
Recently, our life plans directed us away from the area. This time, Ben worked with us to help sell our property. We were glad to consider him as “a friend in the real estate business.” But a very capable friend, indeed. He fully understood the market and the platforms for advertising our property, worked very well with buyers’ agents, and suggested a competent contractor needed to mitigate a septic issue. We have no hesitation in recommending Ben as your agent.
Timothy & Nancy D.
"Buying or selling a home can be quite stressful. Having an agent you can trust and rely on is crucial. Having Ben as your agent gives you that trust, reliability, and most of all, peace of mind as you navigate through the selling (in our case) process. From our initial interview with Ben, all the way through the possible pitfalls, to the actual selling and closing of our Tualatin house, Ben was there, in close contact, to make sure it all went smoothly. If we ever needed to have an agent for any future real estate transaction, there is no question we would have Ben work with us again.”
