Rooted in Nevada County since 1978, I bring more than 35 years of experience as a building contractor, investor, developer, and house flipper—with a strong focus on commercial real estate. My background in construction and investment strategy gives my commercial clients a distinct advantage when evaluating opportunities, negotiating deals, and maximizing long-term value. From retail and office spaces to income-producing properties and as an owner/investor myself,  I understand real estate with a greater depth. Bringing with me to the table, my family.

My wife and partner, Lore Reynolds-Hamilton, works seamlessly across both commercial and residential real estate. Her versatility, attention to detail, and strong negotiation skills ensure smooth transactions whether she’s representing business owners, investors or families looking for their next home.

Our daughter, Blake Smith, specializes in residential real estate. She brings fresh market insight, strong communication, and a client-first mindset to every transaction, helping buyers and sellers navigate the residential market with confidence. And our daughter, Baylee Drew, is our talented stager, ensuring every property looks its absolute best.

Together, we offer a comprehensive, family-driven real estate experience. With expertise spanning commercial investment, residential sales, construction knowledge, and strategic negotiation our team provides well-rounded guidance tailored to each client’s goals.

Whether you're expanding your business footprint, investing in commercial property, or buying or selling a home, our family is committed to delivering results and making your Nevada County real estate experience both successful and rewarding.

Let our family help yours make the most of Nevada County living.
