His home building and real estate experience along with his passion for the mountain lifestyle and desire to share his knowledge and expertise is a winning combination,”… said Colleen Holmes, Real Estate Broker/Owner of Engel & Volkers Lake Placid.

Michael has been fortunate to learn the real estate business from the inside-out while being employed by regional real estate companies, enabling him to create networks in and become familiar with areas from the Catskills, to Saratoga, to the Adirondacks.
