A little bit about me...
Mike’s real estate roots are built on a solid foundation—literally. He got his start working alongside his dad and brother as an electrician, wiring everything from family homes to commercial buildings across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. With years of hands-on experience, Mike developed a deep understanding of how homes are built, how they should function, and what to look for long before a buyer ever steps through the front door.
After years on job sites, he brought that knowledge into real estate—and for the past 9 years, he’s been helping clients navigate the housing market with a sharp eye, steady hand, and a no surprises approach. From land deals to estates, fixer-uppers to forever homes, Mike combines practical insight with his certification as a NAR Pricing Strategy Advisor, offering strategic, data-backed guidance that clients can count on.
Mike’s no-nonsense approach and clear communication have made him a trusted name in the community. He doesn’t sugarcoat, overpromise, or waste your time—he gives honest advice, backed by real data, so you can make confident, informed decisions. And while he takes the job seriously, he never misses the chance to slip in a well-timed dad joke (you’ve been warned).
Outside of real estate, Mike proudly serves his community as a member of the Masonic Lodge and Scottish Rite in Cincinnati, continuing a lifelong commitment to integrity, leadership, and meaningful service.
In 2024, he convinced his wife Tara to bring her heart for people into real estate too, and together they created The Honey Hive at Pivot Realty—a family-run, award-winning team dedicated to people-first real estate that builds strong communities, not just closings.
