I started Ember Stone Properties to make some changes in the real estate industry that I didn't like. I saw too many companies using shady strategies and lying to people, I saw a ton of slum lords who did not take care of their tenants or properties, and I saw a lot of flippers who do just what they can get away with and sell for a profit. I was lucky enough to get my start with Aurumys who pushed us to be transparent and up front. I started Ember Stone to do more and expand, doing my own high-quality flips without cutting corners, buy and hold properties to provide safe well-maintained housing, and add transparency and honesty to an industry full of dishonest people. As a Marine Corps Veteran I was taught the values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment. I plan to bring these values to the real estate industry and be the change I want to see in this world.
