About Benj
I grew up in Sun Valley, Idaho (Hailey actually) and have been privileged to live in many different places around the world since then. I spent ten years in France, three years in Scotland, and fifteen years in Israel. Now, after travelling the world for twenty-five years, I’m thrilled to finally be back in the beautiful state of Idaho.
Prior to my career in real estate, I worked as an Old Testament professor/scholar and published articles and books on a variety of topics related to the Hebrew language, ancient Near Eastern history, and historical geography. My background in education taught me how to communicate clearly, conduct thorough independent research, find creative solutions, and pay close attention to detail. All these skills, I believe, are extremely helpful in the real estate industry.
I love working with people, and as a real estate agent I am committed to clear and thorough communication with my clients, listening to their needs, working with precision and professional integrity, and ultimately make the buying and selling process an enjoyable experience.

Benj is awesome! That should be more than enough to tell how much I truly appreciated his help. But, more specifically, he made my first home purchase flawless and virtually stress free. Benj explained everything to me throughout the entire process, and was open to any questions that I had. I am impressed with his knowledge of the real estate industry and homes. And he is very personable, authentic, and genuine. I feel fortunate to have had my first home buying experience with Benj and recommend him without question. ~E. Shavers (November 2023)

Benj is simply amazing. We found him through his YouTube channel (go check out his videos if you haven't already, they are very informative). He was very responsive from the beginning and continued to be until, and after, the close of our home. Benj answered countless emails, texts and phone calls, and even helped us put an offer on a house when he was on vacation in Europe! Above and beyond is the best way to describe Benj and his service to us. We are grateful we chose him to be our agent and will use his services again in the future when the time comes. ~A. & L. Dischekenyan (October 2023)
