He specializes in residential real estate and in his career has focused on resale homes, short sales, new construction, and helping buyers find their dream homes.

He started in the business by marketing to Expired listings, these are homes that other agents have listed and couldn't sell. Through that process Mike learned how to effectively market homes and as a result his marketing plan is second to none!

Mike has marketed new homes for multiple builders. For a little over a year, he helped one of the largest builders in the northland by meeting with their buyers and subcontractors working for the builder to make sure the home was built to the custom specifications the buyers wanted. Through this experience he learned the construction process from choosing the best lot through the final clean done just before new homeowners take possession. Mike's experience will help you with making choices for your new home and making sure you don't overpay for those features.

Helping people buy their dream home is a rewarding experience that he loves. One of the most important things that his experience has taught him is to listen to what home buyers want.
