critical tool in unearthing the knowledge home buyers and sellers need to
empower the decision process.

throughout the Northwest. It was there that Alex discovered his passion for
community and helping those around him. After moving to Seattle in 2017, he
began working for Mary’s Place, a local Non-Profit. He served at Mary’s Place
in various capacities, improving community engagement and helping families
in need get back on their feet.

that characterizes the Pillar to Post brand. He brings a drive for excellence in
customer service based on his years in the field and experience helping
realtors, buyers and sellers make homeownership a reality in the Puget Sound
area. He understands that thorough, non-biased and calmy explained
reporting is essential the inspection process. Now, as Co-owner, he is excited
to offer his years of experience with the Van Pamel Team and continue to
