Led by Steve Edrington, President, CCIM, CPM, our company focuses on buying and selling residential properties as a multi-family broker; adding or legalizing units, including accessory dwelling units; landlord consulting; and providing expert witnesses for landlords and attorneys. The relationships we forge with our clients drive everything we do; and in addition, we capitalize on a unique blend of project experience, personal knowledge and industry expertise.
“Our success comes from a team working together not just to overcome challenges, but embracing those challenges and turning them into opportunities for growth,” said Edrington. “We leveraged technology in ways we never anticipated and were both focused and nimble in meeting client needs and surpassing expectations…even our own! Coming through the pandemic has left us stronger and even more confident that we can continue to grow and thrive.”

Our decades of experience allow us to navigate complex issues and ultimately maximize value and solve challenges for property owners, buyers/sellers, developers, and landlord-tenant attorneys.
