Welcome to COLE STRANGE

Hey, I’m Cole Strange—yeah, that’s really my last name.

I figured if I was going to have a name like that, I might as well lean into it.

Welcome to strangecole.com—my little corner of the internet, where real estate, lifestyle medicine, and entrepreneurial experiments all live under one roof.

Let’s get right to it:
If you're looking for a local, no-fluff Realtor who knows the Forest Hills and Ada market inside and out, I’d love to help you buy or sell your next home. This is where I live, work, and raise my family. I care deeply about this area and the people in it—and I take real pride in delivering a high-touch experience that goes far beyond sticking a sign in the yard or unlocking a door.

I also run Strange Jack Builders, a small remodel and maintenance company, and 85 West Property Management, where we offer hands-on, responsive service to owners who want peace of mind without the nickel-and-diming.

But that’s just one side of the story.
I’m also a Physician Assistant with over a decade in emergency medicine. After years of treating patients in crisis, I started asking better questions: What if we caught things earlier? What if we actually prevented the avalanche of disease I was seeing? That search led me into lifestyle medicine—and now it’s a core lens through which I see the world, and how I live my life.

This site pulls all of that together.
Whether you're here because you're curious about real estate, looking for a contractor, exploring property management, or just want to read a blog post that doesn’t sound like it was written by a robot—you’re in the right place.

So poke around. Shoot me a message. Or better yet—if you live in or around Ada and you’re thinking about buying or selling a home, let’s talk. I’d be honored to be your agent and your advocate.

This is just the beginning.


HOW I SERVE


 🧠 Lifestyle Medicine & Wellness 

This started as a personal wake-up call. Years in the ER showed me what happens after things fall apart—but I couldn’t stop wondering what it would look like to get ahead of it all. Now I share what I’ve learned about metabolic health, stress, movement, and food—not from a mountaintop, but from the middle of real life. I write, speak, and coach with one goal: helping people feel better before they get sick. It’s not perfect, but it’s real—and it works.

 

🏡 Realtor – Forest Hills, Ada, and Beyond

I’m not your average Realtor. I’ve bought, sold, flipped, and house-hacked. I know how to see a home not just for what it is—but what it could be. If you're buying or selling in Forest Hills, Ada, or anywhere in greater Grand Rapids, I bring the same energy to your transaction that I bring to my own: sharp eyes, straight talk, and no wasted time. My clients know they’re not just getting an agent—they’re getting a strategy.

 

🏘️ 85 West Property Management

I manage properties the way I wish mine had been managed. That means less vacancy, fair and fast maintenance, and crystal-clear communication. Whether you're an out-of-state investor or a local landlord who’s just tired of the headaches, 85 West was built to make ownership simple and sustainable. We’re local, hands-on, and always working to deliver real value—not just collect rent checks.


🔨 Strange Jack Builders

A little bit strange. A whole lot reliable.
Strange Jack Builders was born out of a need for craftsmanship you can trust—from people you'd actually want in your home. We tackle small remodels, punch lists, and maintenance projects with honesty, clear timelines, and solid work. Whether you’re a homeowner or an investor, we’re here to help you protect and improve what you’ve built.
