About us
I'm well-versed in long-term rentals and house hacking, and I specialize in helping investors succeed in the Milwaukee market. Milwaukee offers great opportunities for investors from all over, but investing here takes local knowledge. As an investor myself, I can help you run the numbers, find the right deals, and build the team you need to thrive. I believe a great agent doesn't just see you as a transaction. Instead, I believe in building a network of like-minded investors that can work together, trading contacts, knowledge, goals, and perhaps even sharing deals from time to time. As my client, you’ll gain access to this network and the same ongoing value I get from it. Our work together doesn’t stop at closing. I’ll continue to support you and your investments for as long as you’re active in Milwaukee. I look forward to connecting and seeing how I can add value to your investing journey.

I had the pleasure of working with Seth on a recent transaction for a mutual client, and he was excellent throughout the entire process. He was very proactive about following up on details, stayed on top of the various moving parts, and clearly cared about making sure his client was well taken care of.
There were several pieces that needed to come together throughout the transaction, and Seth did a great job coordinating everything and helping keep the process moving smoothly from start to finish. He was professional, responsive, and easy to work with.
I would absolutely recommend Seth to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and attentive real estate professional, and I look forward to working with him again.

Out-of-state investor review: Seth and I have been working together to get my first property in Milwaukee and we finally closed on it today. If you're reading this, you're probably vetting agents now. I was in your shoes a few months ago and interviewed 5-6 agents.
As an out-of-state investor, you need a solid team working with you. Seth has become the cornerstone of mine - from walking properties and documenting everything on video, to underwriting, making offers, and negotiating.
Overall, Seth has been great to work with. As an investor himself, he understands what other investors are looking for and what matters when evaluating a deal. He is always eager to deep dive into the numbers and doesn't mind sharing his perspective when needed. He's responsive and communicative and always gets back to me within a reasonable time. He spent a lot of time helping me better understand the Wisconsin market and we even exchanged our underwriting methodologies, which helped me refine mine based on local specifics.
I fully recommend Seth to any investors who want to get started in the Milwaukee market - whether you're local or out of state.

I have had the pleasure to work with Seth on a few different occasions, and he is a fantastic agent to have on your side! Not only is he very knowledgeable about the market, but is great with negotiations and has also provided excellent advice on rehab and inspection related items that come up in various homes. His personal experience with investment properties goes a long way to help all of his clients!

Seth was great to work with. He took care of things when they needed to be done. Everything was signed and back to me asap. The closing got pushed back because the mortgage company that gave the pre approval, decided not to give buyer financing. He connected buyer with another lender that closed on the deal in 2 weeks.

Seth was nothing short of impressive when helping my wife and I purchase an investment property from out of state. Purchasing a property from 1500 miles away can be very daunting but Seth put our minds at ease and made sure to walk us through the entire process! His communication and professionalism are top tier! Anyone interested in purchasing a property, near or far, can trust Seth to get the deal done. Highly recommend him!
