About

Scott Dylan Westerlund has been writing about homes and real estate for almost ten years.

You'll find his byline on articles about everything from buying a house and managing rentals to clearing clogged drains and picking the right lumber for your home improvement project. Prior to writing, Scott was an apprentice building contractor and property manager--so he knows how to keep the lights on and the water running. When he's not writing articles or fixing something around the house, he enjoys working out, playing piano, and spending quality time with his wife and daughter.
