Real estate is a team sport. Behind every smooth transaction is a network of trusted professionals who show up, do great work, and put clients first. After 18+ years in the Greater Cincinnati market, I've built relationships with the very best — and I'm proud to share them with you.
When you work with me, you also have access to one of Cincinnati's most experienced brokers — a partnership built over 7 years of serving our mutual clients with excellence.
Pauline Justice Mami is one of Greater Cincinnati's most accomplished and deeply experienced real estate professionals. Licensed as an agent since 1980 and as a broker in Ohio since 1998, she has guided clients and shaped careers in this industry for over four decades — through every market cycle imaginable.
Before joining OwnerLand Realty, Pauline built a distinguished career managing agents at multiple local real estate firms across Greater Cincinnati. Her leadership experience gives her an understanding of this business that goes far beyond the transaction level — she knows how brokerages work, how deals get made, and how to protect her clients in any situation.
Pauline has also given back to the industry in a meaningful way, teaching new agents and continuing education courses at Hondros College — one of Ohio's premier real estate schools. The skills and ethics she has instilled in the next generation of agents speak to both her expertise and her commitment to raising the standard of the profession.
Pauline and I have been working side by side for 7 years, combining our strengths to serve clients across Hamilton, Butler, Warren, and Clermont counties in Ohio, as well as Northern Kentucky. When you work with me, you're backed by 45+ years of combined real estate experience — and a broker who has truly seen it all.
A great home inspector is one of the most important members of your buying team. After hundreds of transactions, I've worked with inspectors of every quality. The three below are the ones I call on personally — thorough, professional, and genuinely invested in protecting you. Each is fully licensed and insured in Ohio and Kentucky.
Brian Gibbs has been Cincinnati's go-to home inspector since 2012 and launched Master Home Inspection Services in 2018. With 5,000+ inspections completed and a 5-star Google reputation, Brian is meticulous, fast to report, and great at communicating findings in plain language. I've referred Brian to dozens of my clients — he never lets them down.
Garrett Gerard leads Greater Cincinnati's top-rated home inspection company, serving the Tri-State area across Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and Southeastern Indiana. Gerard Home Inspections is known for accurate reporting, cutting-edge technology (thermal imaging, combustion analysis), and a personalized approach that treats every client as a priority.
Caleb Kingsley takes a comprehensive, client-first approach — averaging 3.5+ hours on site and documenting 60+ issues per inspection. Holistic Home Inspections uses professional-grade equipment including infrared cameras, gas detectors, and sewer cameras. Caleb offers follow-up video calls to walk through every report item with you in detail.
A great title company is the backbone of a clean, on-time closing. American Homeland Title Agency has been my go-to for years — professional, detail-oriented, and genuinely easy to work with for buyers, sellers, and agents alike.
American Homeland Title Agency is one of Greater Cincinnati's most established professional title companies — handling real estate title searches, owner's title insurance, and closings across Ohio and Northern Kentucky with precision and care.
With 9 offices spanning Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, Dayton, and beyond — including a dedicated NKY office in Wilder and a Cold Spring location — they're perfectly positioned to serve every transaction in the markets I work in. Their SMARTtransaction system lets everyone track the deal in real time, so there are never any surprises at the closing table.
I refer American Homeland Title because they make my clients feel taken care of — and because their attorneys and title examiners know how to resolve title issues before they become deal-killers.
Jeff Fries isn't just my go-to mortgage broker — he's my brother. And in over 15 years of lending experience, he's become one of Cincinnati's most respected VPs of Mortgage Lending.
Jeff specializes in working with first-time buyers, investors, and clients with complex income situations — including 1099 earners, self-employed borrowers (Bank Statement loans), and DSCR investment property financing. He's helped 700+ clients across Ohio and Kentucky secure financing, and he's known for being available even on weekends.
When you're buying a home with me, Jeff is my first call — because fast, reliable pre-approvals win offers in this market.
Jeff's combination of deep lending expertise, local knowledge, and personal investment in every client's outcome makes him the natural first call for anyone buying in the Greater Cincinnati market.
In real estate, who you know matters as much as what you know. After 18+ years in this market, my network isn't just convenient — it's a genuine competitive advantage for every client I serve.
Whether you're buying your first home, selling an investment property, or hunting your next flip in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky — you deserve a team that's done it thousands of times. Let's talk.
