Meet the Team

Randy Hubbs

As a real estate agent and active investor in the Tri-Cities, I am here to provide you with all the resources and information you need to buy or sell real estate. As “Investment Housing Specialists”, my wife Jana and I have over 35 years of experience as investors in single and multi-family income producing property here in our local market as well as in other emerging markets throughout the US and internationally.

If you are considering purchasing investment property, the first question you should always ask an agent is “Do YOU invest in real estate?” As a native Tri-Citian, I am an expert in our local market. My training in real estate marketing and investing goes far beyond the local and state courses and I have had the opportunity to study and learn from many of the top experts in this field. I can offer you knowledge and tools most other agents cannot.

If you are merely looking for an agent to list or sell your home, I am uniquely qualified to provide those services for you as well. Because of my investment experience and construction knowledge, I am able to spot potential issues or provide advice on cost effective improvements that can be helpful with your decision process.

Thanks and I look forward to assisting in all of your real estate needs!

Randy Mattila

As licensed real estate broker at Investment Housing Specialists, I have built a reputation for integrity and excellence in the Tri-Cities real estate industry.

I have a unique perspective on the world of real estate, having successfully "house hacked" two different fourplexes. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of the ins and outs of owning and managing rental properties, which I am able to use to help my clients make smart investment decisions. I am committed to providing exceptional service to my clients. Whether you're a first-time investor or a seasoned pro, I have the knowledge and expertise to guide you every step of the way. With a keen eye for opportunity and a passion for helping people achieve their real estate goals, I am an excellent team member for anyone looking to invest in multifamily properties in the Tri-Cities and Eastern Washington.

As a former residential construction professional, I bring a unique set of skills and knowledge to my role as a real estate broker. My background in construction gives me a deep understanding of the building process and a keen eye for detail when it comes to assessing the quality and condition of properties. I know what to look for in terms of potential red flags and can offer valuable insights to my clients when it comes to making informed buying or selling decisions. Furthermore, my hands-on experience with construction projects allows me to effectively communicate and negotiate with contractors, architects, and engineers, ensuring smooth transactions for my clients. With my in-depth knowledge of the residential construction industry, I am well-equipped to provide my clients with the highest level of service and expertise.

So, if you're ready to take your real estate investment portfolio to the next level, look no further than Investment Housing Specialists. Let's work together to turn your real estate
