RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE REPRESENTATION IN WEST MICHIGAN
EXPERTS IN PROBATE, TRUST, POA, AND OTHER FIDUCIARY MANAGED REAL ESTATE
FACILITATORS OF FAMILY COMMUNICATION - ELDER CARE, ESTATE, AND PROPERTY RELATED CONFLICT
MANAGING REAL ESTATE AS A FIDUCIARY IS NOT THE PLACE TO TAKE CHANCES WITH INEXPERIENCED REPRESENTATION
Did you know that a residential property transferred through a “Lady Bird Deed” is immediately uninsured if steps are not taken in advance of the grantor’s death?
Are you aware that most existing homeowners policies will lapse without warning under certain vacancy situations?
Do you understand that, as a decision maker with a duty to protect an estate, trust, or principal, a court could compel you to personally restore a financial loss caused by your decisions?
As Certified Probate Real Estate Specialists, Senior Real Estate Specialists, and formally trained mediators we understand the gravity and liability of acting in these roles. We also know that they are often performed in the midst of grief and family tension. We uniquely equipped to provide specialized information and services to help you through this time.
We are not attorneys and do not give legal advice, but after experiencing these roles ourselves, we understand the needs that you will face and how to work closely with your legal counsel to help protect you and the beneficiaries you serve.
We love what we do and the clients we serve! With 56 years of combined real estate experience, we’re professionals.
We’ll provide clear communication and easy access when you need it most.

POA, Trustee, Personal Representative and Other Fiduciary Managed Real Estate
Looking after a loved one’s affairs can be overwhelming. As an agent under their Power of Attorney, you may be managing finances, coordinating medical care, or taking the steps necessary to move them to a place where they can receive needed assistance. If your loved one has passed, serving as their Successor Trustee, or settling an estate, as their Personal Representative, all in the midst of grief, can be exhausting.

Enhancing The Value of Real Property
As professionals with decades of residential, commercial and appraisal experience, our tool box is extensive when it comes to determining the current (and future) value of a real property asset. While the valuation of some properties is straightforward, others hold the possibility to create what we refer to as “intellectual value”. Knowing how future land use, availability of public utilities, and possible financial incentives can be used to significantly enhance a property’s current value is key to understanding its true monetary potential. Learn more about how properties are valued here.
