CENTURY 21 Town & Country

In 1980, CENTURY 21 Town & Country began with one office and 11 sales associates, in Sterling Heights, Michigan. Broker/Owner John Kersten developed that one office into a "Centurion Award" winning office (top producing within the CENTURY 21 system) the very first year. The firm currently has 13 sales offices, almost 1,000 agents, and has held the title of Michigan’s Number One Producing CENTURY 21 firm for well over a decade.

Among the firm’s many accomplishments, CENTURY 21 Town & Country is ranked as one of the leading residential real estate companies in the Residential Broker Report published by Crain’s Detroit Business and the Megabroker Report published by both the National Relocation & Real Estate magazine and Real Trends. The firm has earned the CENTURY 21 International CENTURION Award since 1981, and the coveted Quality Service Award every year since 1990 - the year it was initiated. CENTURY 21 Town & Country has ranked consistently in the top 10 CENTURY 21 firms in the nation, holding the title as "Number One Firm" for 13 years straight. Perhaps the firm’s greatest accomplishment, however, is being the Number One CENTURY 21 fundraiser for Easter Seals.

My name is Mike Galinac and I have been a sales associate with CENTURY 21 Town & Country for over 17 years. I started the Bank Owned Property Tour for a few simple reasons. My buyer clients have been very interested in learning about bank owned properties for some time now. My seller clients are having a very difficult time getting a fair price for their homes. We cannot begin to recover our real estate market in Michigan (or the rest of the country for that matter), until we sell off the bank owned inventory and level out the playing field. There are some fantastic opportunities out there, and my buyer clients couldn’t be happier with the market than they are right now. By assisting the many people who would like to find a bank owned bargain, and eliminating the bank owned inventory, I can do my part to help put our real estate market back on track     

You don’t have to be a savvy investor to find a great real estate bargain. We will provide you with all of the tools and guidance necessary to be able to make a smart buying decision. We will tour up to 10 of the absolute best bank owned deals in a particular community, every Saturday at noon. If that schedule doesn’t work, or you would like to customize your own tour, we have the personnel and flexibility to accommodate your needs.

We will educate you on the many different financing options available, including rehabilitation loans, which allow you to roll the renovation costs right into your mortgage. Deanna White with Cambridge Mortgage will help through the mortgage approval process, free of charge. The banks will not even look at your offer unless you are pre-approved.

If you need to sell a home or condo, we are well prepared to help you there as well. I have represented hundreds of seller clients throughout the years, and have been very fortunate to have a strong following of repeat and referral business.

Whether you are buying, selling or even leasing, my philosophy is the same for everybody. I want to make sure that I do everything in my power to help you achieve your goal. I want to treat you as I would want to be treated, and in the end, I want you to be happy that you chose to put your trust in me.
