Why Work with Dave Regel?
Accessible Real Estate in Blaine & Twin Cities
I bring licensed real estate experience and decades of accessible construction know‑how to every assessment. I evaluate homes through a builder’s lens—threshold heights, door widths, transfer clearances, appliance reach, lighting controls—and explain how each element affects daily living for wheelchair users, seniors, and families planning to age in place.
