With deep roots in the Walla Walla Valley, I’m proud to call this community home—now and for generations to come. I was born and raised here, grew up playing sports in the valley, and today I’m raising my own children here. Being part of this community isn’t just where I live—it’s who I am. I bring over 20 years of experience in sales, finance, and sales management to my real estate career. Throughout that time, I’ve built my reputation on trust, communication, and delivering results. My main goal is simple: to provide a Truly Exceptional Experience for every client I work with. I’m committed to being side-by-side with my clients—not just during the transaction, but throughout their entire homeownership experience. What I’ve enjoyed most over my 20+ years in customer service is building lasting relationships and giving clients peace of mind. I believe in going above and beyond, doing the right thing every time, and making sure my clients feel heard, valued, and genuinely cared for every step of the way. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me spending time with my family in the outdoors—camping, hiking, fishing (a lot), and shooting archery. Our home is also happily ruled by our three pups: Nala, Lenny, and Lou. We’re also proud supporters of our kids as they compete in athletics at Walla Walla High School and DeSales High School. I look forward to the opportunity to earn your trust and provide you with a Truly Exceptional Experience.

For M. Rick Phillips, real estate is about more than buying, selling, or managing properties - it’s about people, relationships, and helping clients make confident decisions. Rick and his wife, Nikki, made Walla Walla their home in 1986, choosing to raise their family and build lasting roots in the community. His real estate journey began in 1991 managing an apartment building, followed by earning his real estate license in 1996. With over 30 years of experience managing more than 600 rental units and a wide variety of investment properties, Rick brings exceptional knowledge of the Walla Walla Valley market, property values, building systems, and investment strategies. What truly sets Rick apart is his genuine commitment to people. Having worked with individuals from every walk of life, he has built his career on honesty, fairness, respect, and a willingness to roll up his sleeves to get the job done. Rick believes exceptional service begins with listening, understanding each client’s unique goals, and providing practical solutions with professionalism and a personal touch. His extensive experience and deep local connections make him a trusted resource for buyers, sellers, and investors alike. Some of his greatest rewards have been the lifelong friendships formed through real estate. Outside of work, Rick enjoys spending time with his grandchildren, tinkering with an old car alongside his cat, and playing music around downtown Walla Walla. His love for the community is reflected in his dedication to helping others succeed. Whether buying a first home, selling a longtime property, or exploring an investment opportunity, Rick offers the experience, integrity, and personal attention that make every move a better one. “When you make your move, my goal is to help you make the best move for you - boldly, confidently, and on your timeline.”
