Will the boat fit? That's the first question I answer.

Not all ocean access is equal. My proprietary tool tells us current bridge clearances, and I stay current on infrastructure improvements, so the local knowledge is at hand. Whether you're buying the property for the boat (we're happy to work with the marine industry) or buying it for the lifestyle, we'll help you underwrite this market and the water.

How we'll work together

  1. Your boat and your lifestyle first

    Draft, beam, air draft, and how often you'll actually leave the dock. That sets the search area before we look at a single listing.

  2. A short list that's really a fit

    Filtered for clearance, dockage and canal quality, not just bedrooms and price. You see fewer homes and better ones.

  3. The details answered before we tour

    Bridge heights, tide windows, seawall and dock condition, crew and charter considerations. No surprises on the walk-through.

  4. Negotiation through closing

    A proprietary contract abstract adds checks and balances drawn from experience. Commercial rigor, brought to single-family.
