Steve began his real estate career in 2015 after retiring from a very successful 34 year career in California Agriculture. As a third-generation tractor mechanic, he served Central Valley farmers that continue to feed America today. As he transitioned out of this role, he opened a home inspection company in California, Jubilee PMI, advancing that business to a Home Energy Score Assessor.

In 2020, when the market began to boom, Steve realized that he and his wife April were better working together as the market ramped up. They wanted to maintain the exceptional level of service April's clients were accustomed to so he joined her in real estate. Today, they run The Blankinship Group together with an emphasis on knowledge, professionalism, transparency, and exceeding the expectation of their clients, regardless of the task at hand.

"I joined my wife to form The Blankinship Group as a natural progression driven by my love for my community. My background in home inspections has helped me to assist both buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals through a Commitment to Excellence"
