Michael Jewer
Originally, from the Mid-Atlantic, I moved to northeastern Mass in 2010 to be closer to my future husband, Guy. We first lived in Malden on the Revere and Saugus lines, later we moved to Melrose and finally purchased our first home together in the Tewksbury area on the border of Wilmington and Billerica.
Having spent over 20 years as a retirement plan consultant, helping employers and employees navigate the path to securing a meaningful retirement in the future, I began wondering where else my professional skills and care for the future of individuals and families could best be of use. I know from my own life, the lives of family members, friends and retirees I’ve worked with – the home is usually everyone’s greatest and most cherished financial and personal asset. It is what provides the most comfort and security no matter our age or other circumstance. It is the last thing my grandmother ever wanted to leave and the biggest goal most of us work towards obtaining once we leave our parents home.
With encouragement from family and friends, along with the suggestion of several of my colleagues, I began pursuing a career in real estate. My outgoing personality and ability to make complex transactions seem simple helps clients, whether a seller or a buyer, be more at ease. In addition to really enjoying the process of meeting and collaborating with individuals and families to achieve their objectives, I find great pleasure in providing clarity and consultation to my clients. My decades of experience in the financial services industry provides my clients with the benefits of my project management and contract negotiation expertise, my ability to think outside the box and be creative in marketing and securing client transactions in varying local real estate conditions and cycles.
Finally, I am a connector at heart. I have a large network of regional service providers in the industry, such as lenders, attorneys, home stagers, photographers, inspectors and specialists in all types of home maintenance and repair needs to assist with all aspects of the home buying and selling experience. These valuable resources allow you, as my client, access to skilled professionals who are committed to delivering the same top-notch service experience and dedicated to the same principles as I am.
When I am not busy working for my clients or investing time hopefully acquiring new ones, I enjoy spending time with my husband and his family. I enjoy a good meal with friends at one of our wonderful area restaurants or drinks and lots of laughter. I am a member of Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Wakefield, Mass and spent a couple years as co-chair of our Mission Commission. Participating in charitable endeavors and finding ways to support organizations focused on helping our Greater Northeastern Massachusetts neighbors is something I cherish. I am also a member of the Santa Rosalia DiPalermo Society of Boston and chair of our mission committee.
