Beginning his formal real estate career in early 2000, Mike started as a Sales Agent for a nationwide developer. There he sold large residential projects in various locations around the country. Quickly realizing his love for the industry and need to expand his knowledge, he ventured into the brokerage community less than a year later. He continued to double his gross annual sales every year for the next four years.  Initially focusing on individual buyers and sellers, he also expanded into new development projects and commercial properties as his practice grew. From 2004 to 2008 Mike owned and operated the boutique River North brokerage, Atland Realty LLC. In the spring of 2008, he merged the successful practice with Jameson and now operates as the Atland Group with his partner Jennifer Liu. The group has in excess of $120M in sales to date.

Mike continues to represent many individual buyers, sellers, and investors. Due to recent recent market conditions, he has also consulted with many large investment firms looking to acquire and/or develop distressed assets in the Chicagoland area. These market valuations have exceeded $500M in total valuations and continue to grow each month as more opportunities present themselves. Mike currently sits on the Professional Standards Board for the Chicago Association of Realtors. In December of 2010 Mike was presented the Jameson’s “Huzenis Award” for representing outstanding ethics and integrity in the industry. His annual sales consistently rank him in the top 5% of Chicago agents.
