About Joe

MY STORY

I was born and raised in Seattle, and moved to Tacoma after college and currently live in University Place.

I purchased my first home in 1999, and became licensed in real estate in 2001. Over the years I’ve bought and sold hundreds of homes for clients by 2010 I had personal production that ranked among top single brokers nationally.

I don’t share this with you to be boisterous. I share this with you because I want you to know I’ve been around the block, know a few things, and have a few tactics up my sleeve that I can use to help my clients get what they want.

My most recent success dates from my time at Commencement Bay Brokers. With the help of a tremendously talented team we were able to grow Commencement Bay Brokers into a leading, local, independent brokerage. By 2015 and 2016 we were ranked among top brokerages in the State of Washington by Puget Sound Business Journal.

In 2017 I sold my interest in the brokerage to explore other professional opportunities (more on this in a minute)…

The Team at Commencement Bay Brokers is amazing. They are incredibly professional, thorough, and some of the best friends I have. While I value the time I had with this amazing team I decided to branch out on my own to start Toner Real Estate Solutions.

I am passionate about my community and involved with the American Cancer Society as a board member and Team leader for the Relay for Life , the North Tacoma Cooperative preschool as a former board member and many roles with Saint Charles Catholic School and parish.

CORE VALUES
Throughout my career, I have worked towards and continue to refine a personal mission statement which I have polished down to “Give More”.

“Give more… to help others navigate toward realizing their fullest potential so that we are all impactful difference makers.”

Here’s a little bit about what I believe…
