JOSEPH SMOGARD

Partner and Founder

Joseph Smogard graduated from Case Western University in 2011 with a degree in Management with a Concentration in Finance and a Minor in Political Science.  Upon graduation, Joseph worked for PNC Bank as an Auditor.  In 2014 Joseph decided to start working for himself instead of for a larger company and founded the MyPhilly.House Team. 

 

Joseph grew up with a family business New Construction and has been able to use his background in Finance and Construction to offer help and guidance to his clients throughout the buying and selling process.  He has the unique ability to see the business of real estate from all aspects to help provide his clients the highest level of service.   He uses this knowledge to not only help his clients but also to empower them by encouraging clients to learn more about real estate when they are in the process of buying or selling.  Joseph is passionate about the city of Philadelphia and highlighting all it has to offer.

COLIN GOOD

Partner - Over $15 Million in sales in 2019

As a graduate of Penn State University, I decided to move to the Philadelphia area in 2005 to pursue a career in real estate. Licensed since 2005, I quickly put my real estate degree to the test in a hot market. Since then, I have sold over $100 million in real estate in Philadelphia, Montgomery and Delaware counties. Over the past 5 years, I have sold an average of 35 homes per year and eclipsed the $11 Million mark in sales in 2018.  


As a partner in the MyPhilly.House team, I strive to provide clients with the highest level of service. I enjoy helping buyers search for their dream home, negotiate an offer, and navigate them through the home buying process. When representing a seller, my focus is finding the right buyer and negotiating a fair price based on the current market conditions. I also work with numerous investors & landlords, assisting them in keeping their cash flow properties full of great tenants.  


I am proud to be part of Keller Williams Realty, which is now one of the largest real estate firms selling residential and commercial real estate in southeastern Pennsylvania.  We have the experience from selling thousands of homes. Chances are there isn't any inspection, radon, termite, or mold problem that we haven't handled.
