Helping Greater Des Moines clients buy, sell, and invest since 2001

I represent buyers and sellers in all areas of Greater Des Moines with special expertise on the south side where I was born and raised. My work spans residential, multifamily, and commercial real estate throughout the metro, including development partnerships on projects like Culver Ridge Estates, Park Fleur Condos, Prairie Hills Senior Living, Grandshire Estates, and the Historic Ft Des Moines Army buildings.

One of my favorite aspects of this work is educating and advocating for first-time homebuyers as they navigate what can be an overwhelming process.

I work with buyers and sellers at every price point.

Hello, my name is Joe Henry!

I am a realtor who connects buyers and sellers with residential, land, and commercial real estate. Serving clients in the Greater Des Moines community is my passion.
