About Iron Gate Real Properties in Sonoma and Marin County, CA

Owner-Operated Construction and Real Estate Services Since April 2024

Iron Gate Real Properties is a co-owned LLC providing integrated construction, renovation, and real estate services throughout Sonoma and Marin County. Founded in April 2024, the company brings together two complementary disciplines: Michael’s 30 years of hands-on construction and handyman experience, and Jacinda Duvall’s licensed real estate expertise (California DRE #02192939). Together, they offer clients a seamless approach to buying, improving, and selling properties across Wine Country.

As co-owners, Michael and Jacinda work directly with clients through every phase of a project. Michael personally oversees all construction and renovation execution, ensuring high-quality workmanship from initial planning through final walkthrough. Jacinda manages the real estate strategy, providing direct market guidance, transaction oversight, and property acquisition or listing support. This direct owner involvement gives clients clear, consistent communication across both the build and real estate sides of their investment.

Both owners share a grounded, results-driven philosophy: deliver quality work, offer transparent guidance, and build long-term relationships through proven results. You won't find inflated promises or aggressive sales tactics here. Michael’s three decades in the building trades and Jacinda’s local real estate knowledge have been built on repeat referrals, deep community roots, and a straightforward approach to helping clients realize their property goals.

The partnership between licensed real estate services and construction execution creates a complete, end-to-end service model. Whether you are looking to purchase renovation-ready homes with reliable cost estimates, prepare a property for sale with high-ROI improvements, navigate investment property flips with realistic budgets, or design a custom build, Jacinda and Michael provide unified representation to maximize your property's potential.

From Keeler Handyman to Full-Service Real Estate Construction

Before founding Iron Gate Real Properties in April 2024, Michael operated as Keeler Handyman, building 30 years of construction experience and strong local ties throughout his hometown community. To offer clients a complete property solution, he joined forces with Jacinda Duvall, a licensed real estate agent (California DRE #02192939) with Jana Adams & Associates | LPT Realty. Together, they expanded from local handyman services into a comprehensive, dual-specialty firm serving Sonoma and Marin County.

This balanced partnership directly addresses a common challenge in Wine Country real estate transactions. Buyers often struggle to estimate true renovation costs before making an offer on fixer-upper properties, while sellers frequently overspend on pre-listing updates that fail to yield a high return. By combining Jacinda’s real estate market analysis and transactional strategy with Michael’s practical building expertise, Iron Gate Real Properties provides clear guidance on both property values and actual renovation budgets.

Both owners bring deep, complementary networks to every client project. Jacinda leverages her active connections with regional real estate agents, buyers, lenders, and market databases to find off-market opportunities and position listings effectively. Simultaneously, Michael coordinates construction execution, sourcing quality materials and overseeing project management directly. When you work with Iron Gate Real Properties, you benefit from a fully integrated team that understands both sides of the local property market.

Beyond their daily client work, Jacinda and Michael share a commitment to community involvement and clear, straightforward communication—including Michael’s work as an author of published children’s books. Their business approach is simple and grounded: provide honest guidance, deliver exceptional work across both real estate transactions and construction projects, and build long-term client trust through proven results.

Jacinda’s real estate insights align every renovation with true market value and long-term investment return, while Michael’s 30 years of hands-on experience inform accurate project timelines, realistic budgets, and durable material choices.
