To him, a client is never just a client. And likewise, he's not just their Realtor. He quickly becomes a friend, a confidante — a person they can trust to have their best interest at heart. "My sales philosophy is simple," he says. "Know the needs and objectives of my clients, know my products, know the marketplace and make all of my clients feel like they are my only client." Real Estate, Real Service, Real ResultsMichael distinguished himself early on in his career by earning the "Rookie of the Year" award soon after joining Hunt Real Estate ERA. Since that time, he has proven himself to be a consistent sales leader, and has become a member of the Hunt ERA Executive Club for top sales agents. In fact, by utilizing unique marketing and sales strategies to achieve positive results, he has earned a national designation for outstanding sales performance and is currently ranked in the Top 1% of WNY's Licensed Realtors. "I'm dealing with people in all different phases of their lives," he says. "From first-time home buyers to seniors downsizing from their longtime family home." "I think one reason for my success is that I absolutely love my job. I work hand-in-hand with my selling clients to position their property to be Best in Class. It excites me to assist my clients in finding the perfect property to meet their needs, whether it is an existing home, investment property or new construction. I take great pride in delivering a strong level of communication and personalized service every step of the way." Who is Michael Burke?Being born and raised in Western New York gives him a clear edge in his profession. He has spent his entire life exploring the various communities he serves and can tell you everything you need to know to make the right decisions for your own unique needs. This married father of two has seen firsthand that WNY is a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family. Whether you are buying an existing home or building new, his philosophy is that it is not just a house, but your home. Michael, a graduate of Mercyhurst College who holds a master's degree from St. Bonaventure University, sees his dual-major in management and psychology as key tools in his sales success. He made a career switch after first exploring the banking and financial services industry, ultimately seeking greater flexibility and new opportunities. A never-ending quest to better himself led Michael to complete the Top Gun and E-Force professional sales education programs, as well as Dale Carnegie & Associates professional leadership training. He is also a marathon runner, an avid reader and someone who can occasionally be coaxed into tickling the ivories on a piano. "Whether you are selling, buying or simply investing, I will provide you outstanding service every step of the way." ^Top of Page^ |
