Hi

I’m Joe

I've been helping people buy and sell homes here in Des Moines for over 20 years, and I absolutely love what I do. Whether you're buying your first house, selling a family property, or looking into commercial real estate, I'd love to help you through the process.

As a south side native and proud Iowa State grad, Des Moines isn't just where I work, it's where I've chosen to build my life and raise my family. I genuinely believe in this community's growth and potential, and there's nothing I love more than being part of someone's journey to find their place in it.

My goal is simple: make every step of your real estate experience feel easy, exciting, and exactly right for you. Because at the end of the day, we're not just neighbors, we're building this community together.

Family and community have always been the foundation of everything I do.

People participating in a Democratic political parade, holding a large banner with the Democratic Party logo. Some are wearing 'Resist' shirts, and there are American flags and various signs supporting Democrats and criticizing billionaires and politicians. A man walks with a dog in the front.

As a father, I'm incredibly proud of my two sons: Zachary, a Drake University graduate who served as a Windsor Heights city councilman and is now a successful real estate broker in the Metro, and Jacob, a dedicated Staff Sergeant with 14 years of active duty service in the U.S. Army, currently stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. Jacob's deployments to Afghanistan, South Korea, Malaysia, Germany, and Alaska have shown me the true meaning of service to country.

My commitment to community extends beyond my family. As Past National Vice President for the twelve Midwest states of LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) and current President of LULAC Council #307, I've spent years advocating for civil rights, education, and civic engagement. LULAC, founded in 1929, is the nation's largest and oldest Hispanic civil rights organization, and I'm honored to represent over 150,000 members across our region.

Whether I'm working on advocacy programs, participating in community events, or helping families find their perfect home, my goal is the same: to serve others and strengthen the communities we all call home. These values guide everything I do, from my work in real estate to my involvement in causes I believe in.
