Message from Garrett Ortolf, Founder of Guidance Real Estate
Selling a home is never one-size-fits-all, and it shouldn’t feel out of control, confusing, or purely transactional.
At Guidance Real Estate, we help property owners navigate their sale with clarity, flexibility, and confidence.
Whether that means a traditional listing, an off-market solution, or something in between, our goal is simple: understand your situation, outline your best options, and help you choose the path that makes the most sense for you.
