Closed clean.
Every time.
You make the “hustle” look easy. I’m the “calm” behind your “closing.”
The thirty days quiet
What I handle
What I handle.
Four ways to work with me. Same discipline. Different scope.
Before the contract
Listing paperwork
Open the file clean.
Listing paperwork is where most files start to fray. I open it clean.
- MLS data form
- Signatures
- Ongoing file audits
- Compliance file setup
- Sign installation
Contract to close
Three ways to work together. Same care either way.
From one side to the file with the extras handled.
02
Both Sides
Dual representation
When you’re representing both sides, I run both files with the same discipline.
How it runs

- Same discipline. Same close.
- Single fee unless you’re collecting from both sides.
03
Premium

Some files need more. Premium handles those too.
Standard scope +

Who I work with
Who I work with.
On my desk
Real estate agents in St. Pete and Tampa Bay closing 8 to 40 deals a year. Busy enough to need a TC. Hungry enough to want your nights and Sundays back.
Brokerages in the same footprint who want to offload TC work without bringing it in-house.
St. Pete to Tampa, neighborhood by neighborhood.
Inside those markets, the title companies on each street, the inspectors who show up on time, the municipalities and how they move. I know who’s where and who’s good.
Hyperlocal by design.
Foundation
This is what twelve years inside the brokerage taught me.
Personal assistant. Then Director of Brokerage Services. Compliance, property management, agent onboarding, transaction coordination.
Volume that builds muscle memory for what goes wrong, what gets missed, and what a clean file looks like on closing day.
Across 350 files a year. On time. On your side.
Hyperlocal by design. I know the title companies, the inspectors, the municipalities, the issues before they show up.

FAQ
Questions I get a lot.
- What does it cost?
- First file, we’ll talk it through. The TC fee comes out at closing, so there’s nothing out of pocket for you. Pricing depends on which tier you pick (Listing, Standard, Both Sides, Premium) and the complexity of the file.
- How fast can you turn around a contract?
- Same day. Submit before 5pm Monday through Friday and the file’s open by end of day. Submit over the weekend or after hours and it’s open first thing Monday.
- What if my deal falls through?
- It happens. If we open a file and the deal terminates before closing, the unused portion of the fee carries forward to your next file. You don’t pay twice for a deal that didn’t close.
- Do you work with my brokerage?
- Probably. I work with agents from most brokerages in St. Pete and Tampa Bay. If your brokerage has a specific compliance system or platform, send me the details when you submit your first contract and I’ll confirm fit.
- What software do you use?
- Whatever your brokerage runs. AppFiles, Dotloop, Transaction Desk, Compass, Real. I’ve worked in all of them. If your brokerage has its own platform, I’ll learn it on your first file.
- What’s the difference between Standard and Premium?
- Standard runs the contract from open to close. Premium does that plus the side-work: insurance quotes, flood transfer, HOA documents, repair receipts, inspector coordination, re-inspection scheduling, open-permit search. Standard for clean deals. Premium for waterfront, condos, and anything with a lot of moving parts.

The last word
Closing day looks easy because of what happens in the thirty days before it.
I make those thirty days quiet.
