Justin Abel was born and reared in the beautiful Wood River Valley where he spent his formidable years working in construction and honing his customer service skills in multiple restaurant positions. Justin has a BA in Psychology and an AA in Culinary arts. His years in restaurant management and eventually new home sales have helped him with his empathetic approach to Real Estate. Being able to understand what a Buyer or Seller needs and wants gives him an advantage that leads to long term relationships, over one time sales. Having worked with countless Buyers and Sellers with build jobs, spec homes, and existing home sales Justin has the understanding of what a Buyer looks for in a home and how a Seller can capitalize on the positive aspects of their home. My lovely wife and I have been married for 30 years and we have two boys Chase and Chandler. Thanks to my wife’s persistence in trying to get us to move back to Idaho, we tried Seattle and San Diego and she finally reminded me of the beauty of Idaho. I can say without any doubt that I love it here more than anywhere I have ever spent time. I enjoy coaching Lacrosse, tailgating at BSU games, The Idaho Steelheads, and all of the wonderful outdoor activities afforded us here in this fantastic Valley of Treasures…
