Agent Details

Meet Mike

Mike Swanson doesn’t just sell homes, he helps people make smarter moves. After going through his own foreclosure during the 2010 downturn, he made a promise to himself: he’d own a home again, and he’d help others avoid the same pitfalls. That experience is what led him to real estate and what still drives him today.

With a Marketing degree from Florida State University and 10 years of experience as a licensed Realtor—including the past 8 years as a Broker Associate—Mike knows how to break down the process, walk his clients through every step, and deliver honest guidance rooted in where they are financially and where they want to be.

He’s known for his contract expertise, negotiation skills, and the kind of follow-through that earns long-term trust. Ranked in the Top 5% of residential agents in 2024, Mike’s approach is never one-size-fits-all, it’s personal, strategic, and always focused on helping his clients win.

Outside of real estate, Mike enjoys jogging, working out, catching movies, and spending time on the river or at the beach.
