About

About the team.

Investment sales and advisory from Erik Swanson and Mike King at Kidder Mathews in Seattle.

Our philosophy

Every investor has a story.

We feel privileged to contribute to the remarkable success stories of investors in our line of work. Here are a few of the stories that we have heard from our clients.

  • A developer built a retail center and managed her family property for nearly four decades, raising the property value from $1 million to over $7 million.
  • An immigrant arrived in the United States with just $40 in his pocket. Over three decades, he advanced from working the night shift at a convenience store to owning that store and over a dozen others.
  • A fisherman bought all the land around a future freeway interchange. Over his 50-year career, he accumulated holdings exceeding $100 million as the area developed.

All of these success stories share a common factor— time. Real estate isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme. Instead, it’s a get-rich-slowly endeavor. Patient investors benefit from compounding over time.

Time in the market is more important than timing the market.

We feel fortunate to have been part of these stories. Having operated in this business for over two decades, we’ve seen the effects of compounding over time. Like investing, time has allowed us to refine our skills and compound our results. Over the years, we’ve developed a systems-driven approach, paying meticulous attention to every detail. Commercial real estate transactions are complex, and each deal is unique. Our role is to help investors execute their plan and build wealth.

We are hands-on; working diligently to deliver value to our clients. We roll up our sleeves and make things happen. Whether you’re an owner aiming to sell and maximize your asset’s value or a buyer in search of expert guidance, our team assures you extensive market knowledge, a proven track record, and an unparalleled level of service.

We invite you to join us. Let’s create the next great story together.

Sincerely,

Erik Swanson
