Michael co-founded and co-authors the blog P1Fran.com, and he co-founded and co-hosts the talk radio show BlogTalkRadio.com/RaiseTheBar, both of which focus primarily on the issue of “raising the bar” of professionalism in the real estate industry.
He is a CPA, and worked at the international accounting firm Price Waterhouse for 10 years before entering real estate. Michael attended Michigan State University, where he received a degree in Accounting.

Brendon Lemon
A man of mystery, Brendon is multi-faceted in his approach to life. He graduated from Eastern Michigan University, and, before that, Plymouth Canton High School.
Brendon was featured in a film about stand up comedy. In fact, at age 17 he was offered a contract to become a professional comedian by a star-maker within the world of comedy (a true story). Not wanting to drop out of high school to pursue this opportunity and forgo college, Brendon turned down this offer. To this day, his friends and family refer to this as “The Big Mistake,” and people speak in hushed tones whenever a comedian comes on TV when Brendon is in the room…(another true story).
The original inventor of the asterisk, Brendon can be found hanging around local Plymouth, Michigan coffee houses. He is known for his tobacco-less pipes and his odor-free smoking jackets, both of which are staples of the local avant garde wanna-be-beatnik community.
You simply don’t know when, or where, Brendon will appear.
But rest assured, when Brendon arrives, the conversation is just beginning…
