MISSION
The Real Estate industry at its core is a relationship business. My mission is to provide the best customer experience, educate my clients on the current real estate process, provide investment guidance, always put my client's needs first, and communicate every step of the way, while building strong relationships.
AFFILIATIONS
I am a full time broker and owner of Higher Ground Properties, a real estate firm located in the majestic mountains of Western North Carolina. I specialize in residential homes, land sales and assisting investors with property acquisitions.
​
Prior to entering real estate I served in the United States Marine Corps, worked as a military contractor in a training instructor role and operated a small farm selling to local markets. These experiences helped instill in me the discipline it took to become and remain a top producing agent. I am forever grateful to those in my personal life and in business who have helped me get to where I am today.
When you work with me you get an enthusiastic ally with a hard work ethic who loves navigating the real estate market and possesses the knowledge needed to know what to do and what not to do. My goal is to create lifelong relationships with my clients while helping them achieve their goals and dreams.
I am very fortunate to have my wife of nearly twenty years by my side as we raise our five children. Outside of real estate I enjoy attending my children’s sporting events, gardening, trail hiking and enjoying the great outdoors.

TESTIMONIALS
"Jon was such a pleasure to work with. It seemed like he was personally invested in us as well the process of assisting us with this important purchase. If he wasn't totally familiar with a situation or issue... he found someone who was. I would definitely recommend him as a realtor and you may come away with a friendship as well."
