Michael has been practicing real estate in the greater Boston area since 2002. He lived in the Boston area for nearly 20 years, spending time in Allston, Brighton, Brookline, and Back Bay before buying his first house in Roslindale in 2002. Michael has spent nearly 10 years working with buyers, sellers, and developers in the neighborhoods of Newton, Dedham, Brookline, Allston, Brighton, Jamaica Plain, Roslindale, West Roxbury, Dorchester, Hyde Park, and Back Bay. In 2012, Michael moved to Dover, Massachusetts, and he has gained familiarity with much of the Metro West suburbs, including Dover, Westwood, Medfield, Needham, Sherborn, and Wellesley.
Michael believes in utilizing the local network of brokers to maximize his expertise in serving his clients. If a client requires insight into neighborhoods he is currently unfamiliar with, Michael promises to work with them to find them the best contact for those regions.
Residential real estate is first and foremost collaborative. Prior to any offer being accepted, working with other brokers and brokerage offices is essential to identifying and anticipating potential properties and buyers. Upon acceptance of an offer, a single transaction can easily contain more than a dozen different points of contact between principles, brokers, service providers, attorneys, bankers, and other entities. While maintaining his fiduciary commitment to his clients, Michael’s mission is to create a seamless connection between these parties in order to help his clients achieve their real estate goals.
Michael currently resides in Dover with his family with their dog. His wife is a law partner who practices immigration law. His son and daughter both attend Dover public schools. Michael has lived in the Boston area since 1993 after graduating from Bates College the previous year.
In his spare time, Michael enjoys skiing in Vermont, playing soccer, mountain biking, and cocktails by the pool. In his younger days, he played rugby for Boston Rugby Football Club and coached rugby at both the university and high school levels. He enjoys the arts, blues music, cooking, and any vacation that includes a beach.
