RE/MAX Advantage | Kearney

I've been in the business since 2015 and have already gained an incredible amount of valuable experience. I obtained my brokers license in 2017 with aspirations of owning multiple RE/MAX's. I'm a die hard Nebraska Cornhusker fan of any sport and love supporting them. I'm married to an incredible woman with two wonderful kids, Lincoln and Maddox. I love selling real estate, and all aspects of buying and selling because it allows me to help people and that's truly what I love to do. Helping guide people through one of their biggest purchase is such a joy. I live South of the River and grew up North of the River, so my area of expertise is the entire Kansas City Metro area.

After an amazing career in higher education/intercollegiate athletics and moves all over the country, I became a real estate professional in 2017. The experience of buying and selling 10+ homes personally as well as owning rental properties provided me a wealth of knowledge and I was able to hit the ground running. Home ownership is very personal and very rewarding. My primary goal is to make the buying and selling process as smooth as possible for my clients, guiding them through what is often an emotional time. I am licensed in Missouri and Kansas and have a variety of sales in my portfolio, ranging from homes in the inner city to luxury homes on acreage to vacant land in Clay County and north Missouri. I am certified as a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) and have earned the REALTORS Commitment to Excellence Endorsement (C2EX). As an educator, I am passionate about making sure I do the research to provide the best available information to my clients so all their questions are answered for their particular situation. I am active in the Kearney community and currently serve as President of the Board of Education for Kearney School District.

As an Army brat, I was born in Denmark but my dad retired 3 months later and we moved back to the KC area where they decided to put down roots in Liberty MO which is where I graduated high school. I attended NWMSU as an instrumental music major, and even though I didn't graduate, I continue to play in several community bands and wherever I can to keep my skills up and to enjoy making music. I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have two outstanding boys that are the light of my life. After closing my home daycare in May of 1996, I researched what direction I wanted to go next. In December of that year, I officially started my real estate journey. Through the years I have assisted many of my daycare families, both parents and now grown children to purchase or sell their homes. I love people, plain and simple and helping them with one of their largest purchases is a blessing. I reside in Kearney Missouri, where my kids went to school from kindergarten to graduation. Being very active in the community through the Chamber of Commerce (past president), Rotary, and my church, I am invested in keeping the small town values even while we grow.

I am a young entrepreneur whose life revolves around 4 people. I have an amazing wife, Tabitha, that has supported me on every path I've taken. I have 3 boys (Benjamin, Brayden, and Braxton) that look up to me every day. I enjoy being involved in the community and helping teach. I currently coach Middle School football for Polo School District. I enjoy getting to teach kids about a game that I love. Everything I do in life is inspired by my family and my journey into real estate is no different. Recently my wife and I bought our dream home and fully remodeled the house. Prior to this we had purchased and sold 3 different houses that helped us reach our goal of having a house with land. We now have our dream home on 17 acres and love the life we have created for our family. None of that would have been possible without the help of some great realtors who helped throughout the process. My goal as a realtor is to make these dreams come true for other families. I want to help people looking to invest in their future through home ownership accomplish that goal and obtain the prideful feeling of knowing that a piece of land is THEIRS. I also want to help families maximize their properties value when they are looking to move onto their next chapter. I have significant experience in the home buying process as I have worked closely with loan officers and realtors through my independent insurance brokerage, Dylan Fry Goosehead Insurance. I have studied the home buying industry during my time as an insurance agent to better understand what it takes to buy and sell houses in today's market. If I get the opportunity to work with you, I promise to bring a great level of professionalism and experience that makes the process of buying or selling your home one you truly enjoy. I look forward to being your Agent!
