In her own words

Honestly? I stumbled into this industry.

After years as a commercial real estate broker, I had to pivot in 2011. The market had shifted, life had shifted, and I found myself looking for something new. Domains found me at exactly the right moment, and what I didn't know then was that everything I had spent years learning in real estate, how to value an asset, read a market, spot an opportunity, and negotiate a deal that works for both sides, translated perfectly into this world. I just had to figure that out one deal at a time.

My first stop was DomainAdvisors, where I got my footing and closed my first real transactions, including ReverseMortgages.com and Cotton.com. I learned fast. The domain industry rewards people who understand value, and after years in real estate, I already spoke that language fluently.

From there, I spent six years at Uniregistry, one of the most respected names in the premium domain space. That is where I sharpened everything: high-value deals, complex negotiations, and the kind of relationships with buyers and sellers that take years to build and last a lifetime.

Then came SAW.com, where I worked as a Senior Domain Broker and closed some of the most recognized transactions in the industry, including Presto.com and Entry.com. I also acquired landmark domains for clients, including Ollie.com, Gate.com, Day.Ai, Entre.com, Peepers.com, AnyScale.com, Anatomy.com, Ashler.com, XPLR.com, Karlo.com, and many others, for corporate clients who needed discretion, speed, and results.

In 2026, I founded ProBroker. Not because I needed a new start, but because after 15 years learning from the best firms in this business, I was ready to do it entirely on my own terms. Everything I've learned, including the lessons I learned the hard way, now goes straight into your deal.

What started as a pivot became the best thing that ever happened to my career. And now I am here to assist others in this amazing industry!

Outside of domains

Life has taken me all over: I've lived in Mexico, Costa Rica, California and Arizona, and today I call the Atlantic Coast home. I'm a beach person through and through, whether I'm playing on the beach with family or out boating and fishing. I love the ocean and a good laugh, and I believe the best deals start with a real conversation and truly understanding what my client needs and how best to help them. And I work with everyone, from mom-and-pop shops and first-time buyers to startups and Fortune 500 brands. Every client gets me, personally.

What clients say

"Working with Brooke was a great experience from start to finish. She helped me secure a domain quickly and efficiently, and made the entire process feel straightforward and easy to understand. She took the time to clearly explain each step, which made a big difference. Her communication was especially impressive - super responsive, proactive, and always on top of things. Overall, she made what could've been a complicated process feel seamless. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient domain broker."

General domain brokerage questions

Why use a domain broker instead of buying domains yourself?

A good broker knows what names actually sell for, knows how to negotiate, and keeps your identity out of it. That usually saves you money, and it makes it far more likely the deal actually happens. We also know about a lot of names that aren't listed anywhere.

How much does a domain broker cost? What are typical fees?

Our fee is 12.5% of the final sale or purchase price, and you pay nothing until the deal is done. For domains under $2,000 there's a flat $250 fee. No upfront costs, no retainers.

How long does it take to acquire a premium domain?

It depends mostly on how quickly the owner responds and how complicated the deal is. Some close quickly; others take a while.

What makes a domain 'premium' or valuable?

Usually it's short, easy to say and spell, and on .com. Price comes down to length, how brandable it is, search demand, the extension, any existing traffic, and what similar names have sold for. One-word and two-letter .coms sit at the top.

How do domain brokers negotiate prices and get better deals?

Mostly by knowing the market, knowing the people, and knowing when to wait. We find out what the owner actually cares about, open with the right number, keep the buyer's identity quiet so the price doesn't jump, and we're willing to walk away. After thousands of deals, you learn where the real number usually lands.

Can you help with international domain acquisitions?

Yes. We've done a lot of deals across Europe, Asia and elsewhere, which means working through language barriers, currencies, international escrow and each country's transfer rules. Through our network, we've worked in 14 languages.

What happens if a domain owner doesn't want to sell?

A first no is common, and it often isn't final. We find out what actually matters to the owner, try a different structure like a lease or a payment plan, wait for better timing, or find you a strong alternative.

Do you offer payment plans or financing for expensive domains?

Often, yes. Many sellers will take installments or a lease-to-own deal if it's set up properly, and we can also connect you with domain financing companies.

What's included in your domain acquisition service?

Everything, start to finish: research and valuation, finding and contacting the owner, the negotiation, the contract, escrow, the transfer, and help getting the domain set up once it's yours.
