Your Buyer's Agent in IN & KY
Not Just Another Agent
I chose Kentuckiana because I fell in love with it — the walkability of downtown Jeff, the river views, Louisville's energy without the price tag. I've spent my career helping other families discover what I already know: this area is one of the best-kept secrets in the Midwest.
I'm not a team. There's no assistant screening your calls. When you work with me, you get me — at your showing, on the phone at 9 PM when you're second-guessing an offer, and at the closing table making sure nothing falls through the cracks.
I work both sides of the river, which means I can tell you exactly how Indiana property taxes compare to Kentucky's, which school districts are trending up, and where your dollar goes furthest. That cross-border perspective is something most agents in this market simply can't offer.
It's why most of my business comes from past clients and their referrals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to questions I hear most from buyers and sellers in Kentuckiana.
Do I need a real estate agent to buy a home in Indiana or Kentucky?
You're not legally required to use an agent, but having one costs you nothing as a buyer — the seller typically pays the commission. An experienced local agent helps you negotiate better terms, navigate inspections, and avoid costly mistakes. I'm licensed in both Indiana and Kentucky, so I can represent you on either side of the river.
What are closing costs in Indiana and Kentucky?
In Indiana, buyers typically pay 2-4% of the purchase price in closing costs, including title insurance, lender fees, and prepaid taxes. Kentucky is similar at 2-5%. I provide a detailed net sheet estimate early in the process so there are no surprises at closing.
How long does it take to buy a home in the Louisville metro area?
Once you're pre-approved, most buyers in the Louisville/Southern Indiana market find a home within 30-60 days and close 30-45 days after going under contract. In competitive areas like Jeffersonville, Prospect, or St. Matthews, homes can sell in under a week, so being prepared with pre-approval is essential.
Is it better to buy in Indiana or Kentucky?
It depends on your priorities. Indiana generally offers lower property taxes and no state income tax on most retirement income. Kentucky has a wider variety of neighborhoods and is closer to downtown Louisville amenities. I help clients compare costs, commutes, and lifestyle to find the best fit.
What is a buyer representation agreement?
A buyer representation agreement formalizes our working relationship. It outlines what services I provide, how compensation works, and how long we'll work together. This is now required before touring homes. It protects both of us and ensures you receive full advocacy throughout the buying process.
How do I get a free home valuation?
Visit my free home valuation page or call me at (502) 379-2365. I'll provide a comparative market analysis based on recent sales in your neighborhood — not an automated estimate. I physically preview your home's condition and upgrades to give you an accurate price.
