Lakefront & Resort Home Specialist      

Celebrating 30+ Years of Award Winning Service
Top Lake Geneva Realtor with Over $1/2 Billion in Career Sales
Over 700 Waterfront Transactions                                                                            

I am consistently a Top Producer at Keefe Real Estate with over $1/2 Billion in Career Sales as Keefe’s Career Sales Leader, and have averaged over $30MM/year for the past 2 years and over $20MM/year for the previous 20 years.  In addition, I have negotiated over 700 waterfront transactions.

Born and raised in the Geneva Lakes Area of Walworth County, my passion is the Lake and Country lifestyle.  I live on the shores of Geneva Lake and own several lake & recreation properties on our area lakes as well as a vacation home in the great northwoods of Vilas County, WI. 

As a Lake Geneva Real Estate Agent I specialize in Lakefront, Golf Course, Country, Equestrian, and Resort Properties in the Geneva Lakes Area of Southeast Wisconsin, including the lake areas of Lake Geneva, Lauderdale Lakes, Lake Beulah, Delavan Lake, Powers Lake, Potters Lake, Phantom Lake, Twin Lakes, Whitewater Lake, and Abbey Springs and Geneva National Lake & Golf Resorts.

I began my real estate sales career in 1989 as the first on-site Real Estate Sales Agent for Geneva National Golf Club in Lake Geneva, WI.  Then joined Keefe Real Estate in 1993 to pursue Lakefront, Country Retreat, Equestrian, and Resort Home sales. I have both my Wisconsin Real Estate Broker and Sales Licenses, I am an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) and Resort & Second Home Property Specialist (RSPS).

REAL Trends has designated me as one of the Top 25 Real Estate Agents in the entire State Of Wisconsin each year since they started their rankings in 2013, and I am consistently ranked a Top 10 agent in Walworth County and a Top 5 agent at Compass - Lake Geneva.

As the son of a prominent local architect & grandson of a developer I have a strong background in construction & land development which helps me assist my clients in their lake home maintenance, remodeling, tear down, and new construction projects.

I enjoy hiking, biking, travel, photography, boating, water skiing, snow skiing, snowmobiling, music & theatre.

My efforts for nearly 3 decades have focused on sharing my knowledge of the local lakes and lake-country lifestyle with Buyers & Sellers and bringing excellence & satisfaction to the buying & selling public with compassion, empathy & understanding.
