He's an all around good time, but he also brings an ambitious zeal to get the job done.
Ben started out his career serving our country in the Navy. While this helped him develop the mindset of a workhorse and a systematic approach to projects, after five years, he and his wife Teresa decided to come home to Ames. Before stepping into real estate, Ben owned a building service contracting firm, where he was able to hone is talents in leaderships, negotiation, and customer satisfaction.
In his spare time, he loves spending time with his family, whether that's cheering on the Cyclones, going on vacation with his four kiddos, or just hanging out at home. At the center of all Ben does, is a love for people. He's on of the easiest guys to talk to, whether you're looking to sell or build your house or just run into him around town.

Sell My Home
We believe that your needs should be front and center while we’re representing you! For this reason, your listing agent will not represent any buyers for your home. We understand that while “Dual Agency” is legal in Iowa, an agent cannot fully support their client if they are also looking out for
the needs of another party.
