Originally from Alexandria, Virginia, Mike's pursued an understanding of globalization through earning a BA in International Relations from George Mason University. His studies took him to La Universidad de Costa Rica and Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic where he studied Latin American and Eastern European development respectively. Mike has an obvious love for learning, travel, and cultural exchange.

Mike has lived in New York City for almost 25 Years, but as a native of Northern Virginia, he’s accustomed to a Southern charm and sensibility. When Mike asks, "How are you?", he's genuinely interested in learning about someone. When he’s not hard at work with clients, Mike spends time with his French wife of 10 years and their adorable 7-year-old twins exploring Europe and the great outdoors. On the rare occasions he’s not working, he’s working out with his family or enjoying museums and Movie Night with the family. Life is good!

Testimonials

★★★★★
Mike Davis helped me sell my building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He got me the price I wanted and guided me through the process of selling. He is knowledgeable, patient, and he is always available. Thanks, Mike!
- CHEYNEY THOMPSON

★★★★★
Mike Davis sold my Brooklyn Heights Coop in record time -- for 23% *ABOVE* the asking price. Mike and his advised us on minor staging tips for our home and laid out a strategy. It all worked to create a bidding war and drove up our price. Mike secured the best possible deal and we closed on a timeline that worked for us and our wonderful new buyer. Mike is amazing and truly knowd the NY City market. #LOVE
- JULIA KING

★★★★★
As first-time homeowners, we were looking for a lot of guidance and he provided just that - clear and thorough market data and a lot of direction. Together we landed on an incredible property with beautiful views in our ideal location. Michael’s deep knowledge of Williamsburg allowed us to truly envision how this investment could play out in the future. He is patient and thorough - everything from financing to inspection to closing was facilitated with the help of his long-standing relationships within the real estate world. We recommend Michael to anyone interested in purchasing a home.
- PAULA & MATTHEW

★★★★★
Michael K Davis knows Williamsburg and Greenpoint like only someone that has lived there for years can. He has helped me navigate the complicated world that is real estate in NYC to help me find a reasonably priced townhouse. I would recommend him to anyone.
- STU KABAKOFF

★★★★★
I am a landlord and use Michael to list and rent the Garden Duplex in my building. Because of his marketing savvy, my property has been written up in major NYC newspapers and blogs. Michael has a special way of creating a buzz about his property listings. I could not ask for a more professional broker to represent my best interests as a property owner. I will continue to recommend his services to fellow Landlords, friends, and associates in the market.
- MARTIN HOFFMAN

★★★★★
As longtime renters and first-time buyers, we were apprehensive about the entire process of buying a home in NYC, and if that was even possible for us. Mike made the process smooth, easy, and enjoyable to boot. We encourage anyone currently on the market, or even considering a purchase, to connect with this amazing team!
