Shuman and I am a Real Estate Broker with Real Estate One of Petoskey Michigan .  I specialize in listing and selling Real Estate throughout Northern Michigan.  Whether you are looking to buy or sell a home or property in Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Bay Harbor or one of our many surrounding lakes, I have the knowledge and experience to make it happen.  From Petoskey to Burt Lake, Crooked Lake, Walloon Lake, Pickerel Lake or Lake Charlevoix I have access to the latest listings and sold properties so you can be an informed and knowledgable buyer or seller.

 

Throughout this web site you will find information on the local community, advice about finding a mortgage and preparing your house to sell.
