I confess…I am a transplant, a non-Yooper…but don’t hold that against me!
I understand the Yooper way of life. Even though I have lived the majority of my life in the Detroit area I have been a Yooper in my heart, ever since my first visit in the
summer of 1978. My soon-to-be-wife brought me up to the Copper Country to meet her born-in-the-area-Grandparents. Since that fateful visit, my family and I have made countless trips (yes, on purpose) back to the area. We always dreamed of moving to the Keweenaw, and finally did in 2002, moving to Lake Linden and never looking back across the Big Mac!
I am the Rookie agent here at North Wind Real Estate. I’ve only been licensed since March 2006 - but don’t let that scare you away. I have been trained by one of the best REALTORS in the area, Greg Lusk, owner and broker of the firm. He can’t do everything himself and I have lots of enthusiasm!
I believe there is a home out there that is a perfect fit for you. I am committed to helping anyone who wants an affordable home or property and I will not give up that search until they find it. Conversely, I will do everything in my power to sell your home or property finding that perfect buyer.
Experience Matters! That is the company tag line, but that also includes personal experience. I have 48 years of life experience that is too diverse to go into here. Feel free to give me a call and I will go into more detail if you like - all I ask is please don’t fall asleep on me during my stories!
I am not happy until you are not only happy but totally satisfied with your real estate experience.
