About Mike

About Mike Ring
Thinking about buying or selling in 2026?
Start with a simple conversation. A free, no-obligation call, text, or email can bring clarity and confidence in today’s market of low inventory and higher interest rates. The right guidance makes all the difference.

If you’re unsure where to begin, that’s normal. My role is to help you understand your options, create a clear plan, and move forward when the timing is right for you.

With 27 years of experience and a consistent top-3% ranking locally and nationally, I provide trusted advice, strong negotiation, and clear communication from start to finish. I founded Counselor Realty in 2007, now the #1 real estate team in the Lakes Area for the past three years, and excited to be celebrating our 20th anniversary in 2026.

As a Detroit Lakes native with decades of local knowledge and a background in construction and real estate, I offer insight that goes beyond the numbers. I’ve guided nearly 1,000 successful transactions totaling over $250 million across a wide range of properties.

Today’s market requires experience, strategy, and responsiveness. I stay proactive, accessible, and focused on protecting your interests—keeping you informed every step of the way.

Most of all, I believe real estate should feel clear, comfortable, and well-guided. If buying, selling, or planning ahead is part of your future, I would be honored to earn your business.

Let’s talk.
