A native of the Jacksonville area, I have more than four decades of real estate experience and a genuine passion for helping families like yours find their dream home in my beautiful coastal community. Whether you're relocating from across the country or interested in moving just down the street, I always go the extra mile to find attractive housing options that meet your wants, needs and budget. I specialize in the military market, with an in-depth understanding of relocation nuances relevant to active and retired military members. Can't make a trip to Eastern North Carolina to view a house in-person? No problem! I'm accustomed to taking detailed photographs and giving FaceTime video tours for my clients, so you feel confident and comfortable submitting an offer. When I'm not working, I enjoy playing disc golf, kayaking and spending time at home with my black lab. I'm also a father of two girls and an alum of East Carolina University. I look forward to working with you!

Michael's Reviews
5/29/16Juan Gonzalez
Michael was a joy and extremely helpful in finding me my first home. He told me what to look for and always gave his honest opinion. He never once just tried to sell me on a house. Definitely knows what he's doing. I'd refer him to my friends.
