About Sam
Ask anyone who knows Sam, and they’ll tell you he’s all business (almost) all the time. They’ll also tell you Sam brings his sincere personal charm, infectious sense of humor, and sophisticated perspective to every challenge—all of which has proved invaluable to his clients during his 20-plus year career in real estate.

If expertise is measured in part by the number of successful transactions, Sam’s record tells an impressive story. During his career, he’s played a significant role in more than 2,500 transactions in all residential categories:  custom homes, waterfront estates, urban condominiums, single-family residences, land, and resort properties; Sam and his team closed over $100M in sales in 2023.

He also managed sales for such luxury high-rise condominiums as Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue, Escala, Bravern, One Hotel, and Olive 8. 

Why is this important to you? Because experience begets exceptional expertise.

Sam’s professional experience is critical when advising clients looking to buy (or sell) an exceptional home. Representing exceptional properties requires an in-depth understanding of custom residential preferences as well as the ability to gracefully field unique challenges.

Fluent in four languages, Sam has been instrumental in developing global sales relationships. His background has proved invaluable in terms of representing clients attracted to the greater Pacific Northwest. Tellingly, Sam’s name has appeared on The Wall Street Journal's list of the top one percent of real estate in the world, for the past ten years. 

What does Sam do for fun? He spends time with his family, travels adventurously, and looks for the next culinary adventure.
