Michigan Real Estate with Confidence & Curiosity

Hi, I’m Michelle Blaisdell, and I’m so glad you’re here! I created this space to help you navigate Michigan real estate with confidence, curiosity, and maybe even a little fun along the way.

Whether you’re buying your first home, selling your fifth, or just dreaming about what’s next, my goal is to give you honest insights and practical advice you can actually use — no corporate fluff, no confusing jargon.

I’ve spent years helping clients find the right place to call home — from cozy cottages in Alpena to family homes in Flushing and beyond. Every client, every story, every closing has taught me something new about people, community, and the magic that happens when someone finds their place in Michigan.

Before I dove headfirst into real estate, I built a career in publishing and marketing, which gave me a deep appreciation for the power of storytelling — and for making information both clear and engaging.

My Passion for Real Estate & Love for Writing

This blog is where those two worlds come together: my passion for real estate and my lifelong love for writing. Think of it as a front-row seat to the lessons, laughs, and behind-the-scenes moments that come with helping people move through life transitions, not just transactions.

Here, you’ll find a mix of content:

Buyer and Seller Guides — Easy-to-understand tips and insights tailored to Michigan’s ever-changing market (because we all know the only thing that changes faster than the market is the weather around here).

Real-Life Stories — Video tours, client journeys, and local highlights that showcase what makes Michigan such an incredible place to live.

Podcast Conversations — Honest, unfiltered chats with other professionals and locals about community, homeownership, and what “moving” really means.

My promise? I’ll keep it authentic, useful, and real. My goal isn’t just to help you buy or sell a house — it’s to empower you to make confident decisions and maybe even fall a little more in love with the idea of calling Michigan home.

So, grab your coffee, subscribe for updates, and join me as we explore the heart and hustle of real estate — one story, one home, and one move at a time.
