From Harvard to Northern Virginia Real Estate
A Harvard MBA who chose to fix real estate
After 24 years and $2 billion in Northern Virginia real estate transactions, Michael founded RealtyPeople to do exactly that: deliver full-service representation at a fraction of what traditional brokerages charge.
Beginnings in business
Michael earned his MBA from Harvard Business School and held key roles in corporate leadership and innovative startups. His focus: improve broken business models for the benefit of clients.
Built to lead
In 2001, Michael launched an independent real estate firm that made the Inc. 500 list. He later merged into Long & Foster and served as Senior Vice President at Berkshire Hathaway’s largest brokerage. His team ranked top 30 among 8,000+ agents.
Experience that delivers
- $2 billion+ in real estate transactions
- 24 years in Northern Virginia
- Inc. 500 and Ernst & Young finalist
- 2,000+ transactions closed
