New Houghton Office

Northern Michigan Land Brokers is pleased to announce that we are opening an office in Houghton, MI. We would also like to welcome our new Associate Broker, Josh Stein, who will be running the Houghton office. Josh is a young, but experienced Broker with a great sales history in the Houghton area. He is a Forester as well as a Real Estate Broker, which fits well with his area of expertise in vacant land.

We are excited to be working with Josh and feel that he is a great fit for Northern Michigan Land Brokers. Josh will be working on recruiting additional agents to work with him in the Houghton office, so hopefully we will have more new agents coming on with us shortly. You can get to know Josh by visiting him at www.joshsteinland.com. Also stay tuned to www.NorthernMichiganLandBrokers.com for our latest listings including the new inventory from our new Houghton office.

Get Out There

It has been a while since our last post, and we apologize for the delay. Business has been good and things have been very busy. The early departure of our snow pack has started our busy season early this year. The past month we have been hitting the woods looking at new properties, and checking on current listings. Last week I put on over 900 miles in the Upper Peninsula alone.

As I dove all over this wonderful region, I couldn't help but wish I everyone realized that this is when they should be out in the woods. The weather has been good for the most part. The leaves aren't out yet, which makes it easier to view properties. The roads systems have settled and most are in good shape now. The bugs are not out yet, although I did run into some ticks already. Basically, the conditions to look at property couldn't be better.

I urge everyone interested in looking for property to get out there and enjoy these conditions. It seems to me that in the past few years the Real Estate industry has been flooded with information. More people are looking online and less are getting out in field. While it's nice to have information at your finger tips, no website can replace looking in person. Sometimes you just need to go for a drive and see what you can find. Go it on your own, or give us a call for help. Either way, we encourage everyone to get outside and enjoy the wilderness that the U.P. has to offer. You never know what you might find.
