In discussions with several different teams throughout the Midwest, we researched a variety of approaches and concepts which are used in a team concept.  Many and most teams operate with a team leader directing and coordinating "worker bee" sales associates to help produce toward one large production goal.  This was not the goal of Okoboji Property Group and we had little interest in running a team as such.  We wanted a more united front with equal benefits.

We have developed an equal team structure, whereby each member still manages their own client base, no different than before.  However, having a team structure provides us all opportunities of branding, marketing and support that many individual agents are missing when operating individually. 

Joining together in Okoboji Property Group offers our clientele almost 20 years of combined real estate experience in the area.  We each bring a significant profile history of both listing and sale transactions.  We are particularly fortunate that RE/MAX Lakes Realty and RE/MAX International are strong supporters of individual branding for both ourselves and our team.  We are strong supporters and advocates of the RE/MAX system and believe their branding will only heighten our clientele's exposure in marketing.  We are excited to be a part of such a strong and experienced team, and look forward to offering a real estate selling and/or buying experience that is second to none. 

Introducing the Okoboji Property Group at Re/Max Lakes Realty.

I have called this area home for my entire life, I grew up and went to school in Spirit Lake and moved back to Okoboji after college.  I am a 2003 graduate of the University of Iowa with a degree in finance.  Before starting at RE/MAX, I worked at a local bank in several different areas of banking, this experience has become helpful to my real estate clients.

In 2006 I joined RE/MAX, essentially joining the family business with my parents and sister who taught me the business.  I am the only remaining Lippon team member actively selling real estate.  In 2014 I obtained my brokers license and I am licensed in Iowa and Minnesota.  I received Hall of Fame status from RE/MAX for my production over the years.

I am married with three daughters.  Outside of work I like to spend time with my kids and also enjoy golfing, fishing, hunting and following my favorite sports teams.

Since I was young, I have been driven to make a name for myself. I started my own lawn care business as a teenager, and have only expanded my entrepreneurial and customer service skills from there.

After graduating from Minnesota State University in Mankato with a Bachelor's degree in Finance, and a minor in Marketing and Business administration, I began a career as a financial advisor. I have a sincere passion for sales and marketing, which is what drew me to real estate sales

I joined RE/MAX Lakes Realty in 2015 and bring with me an incredible amount of business experience and knowledge of the market. I am a family man at heart. I spend my free time with my  wife Sabrina, and son, Leo, and I also enjoy the outdoors, namely playing golf, fishing, and hunting.

I fully understand and appreciate how important customer service is, especially in the real estate industry. I strive to provide high quality customer service, along with new and innovative marketing concepts, allowing my clients realty dreams to become reality.
