A native of Michigan, Michael was raised with what he calls "classic, small town, Mid-western values" including honesty, directness, and a strong work ethic. As much as he enjoys classic and beautiful things, Michael has never lost sight of these values. They are what make him the warm, good-humored, genuinely down-to-earth person he is today. When he is not busy with his clients, Michael is equally comfortable in a night out at the theater, entertaining friends at home, digging in his flower beds, or playing with Hudson, his Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound), his breed. He has had a total of five. With his timeless approach to life and work - and the people he encounters in both - it is no surprise that in his career as a real estate professional Michael has established a new tradition of going beyond the call of duty to meet his clients' needs. Michael is always fully involved in his clients' transactions, overseeing all aspects of the process to ensure that things run smoothly. Following his motto to "always be willing to do what other professionals can't or won't do," Michael is not averse to rolling up his sleeves and pitching in, and he has been known to do anything when needed, from painting trim, trimming trees to hauling boxes on moving day. It is that special touch of highly personalized service that truly sets Michael apart from other real estate professionals. Michael works hard to anticipate the needs of his clients and ensure that all the details are covered. He stays in close contact to provide them the support they need for a smooth, stress-free transaction. Buyers know they can trust Michael to provide up-to-date recommendations from the current inventory of homes. Sellers appreciate his exceptional skills in staging and marketing their homes for sale at top dollar. And both buyers and sellers alike benefit from Michael's expansive list of professionals to assist in the process. As an agent who is an expert in this local area, Michael brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It is not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information. He is eager to serve you. Here are some of the things Michael can do for you: When it is time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. Michael will take care of everything you need, from start to close. Oftentimes buyers do not visualize living in your home the way you do. He can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that is sold fast.
