Ben has been a REALTOR® for the past eight years and has a BA in English from Denison University in Ohio. He got into the real estate business because he believes buying and selling a home is an important personal and financial decision. He finds it gratifying to help people make such important decisions and ensure successful results. He loves the East Bay and enjoys serving as a guide/ambassador for people who are unfamiliar with our beautiful little corner of the world. Ben’s previous career was in advertising as a media buyer, which provided tons of negotiating experience. However, his first summer job moving furniture sparked his interest in real estate. He loved getting in the truck to see new homes and communities every day, and daydreaming about the houses helped take his mind off lugging all those boxes!
As a local himself, Ben was born and raised in Lafayette and has been around the country enough to know that the Bay Area can't be beaten. He loves the area's natural feel, from the hills and trees that dominate the landscape to the indoor/outdoor lifestyle provided by our mild weather. Ben believes no place in the country can match our location, from world-class dining and entertainment in San Francisco to out-of-this-world getaway destinations like Napa, Carmel, and Lake Tahoe right in our backyard.
Ben decided to join Dudum Real Estate Group because real estate is a hyper-local business. He believes that working for a local family-owned brokerage is ideal. Dudum Real Estate Group is their only focus here in the East Bay. When Ben is not selling real estate, you can find him chauffeuring his kids or doing other dad stuff like Little League, swim meets, etc. You may also find him hiking in one of our many East Bay Regional Parks.
