We're building a deck in our backyard with redwood because it is the most budget-friendly. However, we much prefer the color and tone of Ipe decks.

Do you think there is a stain that could help us achieve the look of the attached deck using redwood?

You cannot get redwood to look like IPE wood when stained. Your above picture is IPE unstained BTW. Stained and it will look like the wet spot on the right side of picture.
