Michael earned a double degree in Business Management and Marketing from Northwood University in Midland, MI. He brings a diversified background of business launching, management and two years of retail experience. Ensuring his clients wide exposure, Michael is also a skilled website designer and has several listed sites. “The real estate industry has undergone a fundamental change over the past several years,” said Spruell. “A majority of consumers are taking the time to conduct their own research prior to contacting an agent. In turn, real estate professionals must be knowledgeable of how technology can assist them in serving the needs of the buying and selling public.” With his e-PRO certification, Michael hones the tools and knowledge needed to provide his clients the information they need and the customer service they demand. A former 1999 ARCA Street Stock “Rookie of the Year”, Michael chose the Lake Norman area thirteen years ago because of his love for a racing community and the similarity to his home town of Grosse Ile, MI, an island in Lake Erie. He is a former member of Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) and Automobile Racing Club of America (ARCA). “I chose Southern Homes Elite Realty because of the family atmosphere and the shared commitment to customer service” says Michael. “I’m eager to partner with clients and assist them with all their real estate needs!” In his spare time Michael enjoys hiking, camping, motorcycles, racing and website design. Mike is “Opening Doors to New Beginnings and Happy Endings”. You can contact Michael by any of the numbers above as well as his new Toll Free number 866-LakeNorman!
