Michael has worked in real estate finance for the past twenty-four years, and truly values being a trusted and informed resource for his clients and referral partners. He prides himself on looking at the big picture of his client's entire financial situation vs. simply quoting rates and fees. After focusing primarily on traditional mortgages for the first twenty years of his career, he has particularly enjoyed becoming an expert on reverse mortgages over the past few years. He feels that being an expert on all types of loans and comparing traditional vs. reverse mortgages is of great value. On the personal side, Michael and his wife Stephanie have been married for twenty-three years, and have two wonderful children ages 21 and 17. Michael has been a lifelong resident of Washington, having grown up in Edgewood and returning there in 1999 to raise his family. In his free time, Michael loves to be outside boating, hiking, skiing and traveling.
