Bryan is fascinated by materials and mechanics… especially how wood, steel, copper, and sweat come together to make a home. As a child, he took apart & reassembled anything he could: his Speak & Spell, the kitchen faucet, and eventually cars and appliances. He holds two design patents.
His housing fascination began in 2002 when managing his first property: a 1923 Craftsman-style apartment in Minneapolis. “Once you know it, you can’t fear it,” is his personal homeowner’s motto. Bryan believes that home anxiety is best managed through deeply knowing a house. “Homes tell you exactly what they need if you know how to listen,” is another of his favorite sayings, and he delights in telling homebuyers what their houses are saying. Bryan has been inspecting since 2016, is a graduate of The ASHI School, and has an MBA from the University of Minnesota. He has eight years of property management experience, including three years as an on-site caretaker. Bryan’s family knows that when he’s out inspecting, he can’t tinker with his own house! So his passion is put to good use for you. He lives in New Brighton.
