About

For most people a real estate transaction is the largest financial decision they will ever make—and it deserves to be handled with expertise, care, and precision. While it’s easy to assume all agents deliver the same results, the truth is that experience, communication skills, and market knowledge can mean the difference between a seamless process and one fraught with missed opportunities. That’s where I come in. With a deep understanding of the market and the ability to anticipate challenges before they arise, I focus on delivering results that matter. My approach is about building trust and fostering meaningful relationships. At Team Keefrider, we embrace a “CAN DO” philosophy. We treat every client with the respect, transparency, and dedication they deserve, guided by the timeless principle of the Golden Rule: treating others as we’d like to be treated. Whether you're selling a home or purchasing one, I promise to make your journey as smooth, profitable, and rewarding as possible.

About

I began my career in Southern California in 1984 and have been a full time Realtor and investor since that time. During my time in California I became a joint venture partner in Mulhearn Realtors Long Beach branch office. I also functioned as the Training Director for the multi-office 400+ agent company. I returned to Upstate New York in 1997 and have worked at RealtyUSA (Now Howard Hanna RE Services) since that time. I'm married to my wife Nancy, a mortgage originator at Ballston Spa National Bank, and we have two adult children who live here in the Capital District. Experience matters in a Real Estate agent. Passing the New York State test does not mean you know how to do all the things necessary to bring about a successful sale. The process is complicated, and there are many pitfalls along the way. 35+ years of making my living in this business has taught me a lot, and that experience will translate into a better outcome for you. I look forward to hearing from you!
