About Michael

When it comes to people and real estate, Mike is all in. He is personally invested in the best outcome for every client and values the relationships created. His goal for every transaction, whether buying or selling, is that it be a perfect experience and he will go the extra mile to make it happen. Treating his clients like family, he listens intently to their dreams and goals and creates a plan to fulfill them. Being a creative and driven problem solver, combined with compassion and empathy, Mike offers his clients a balanced approach to achieving the results they’re looking for. They and their best interests are truly the focus of his work. A rare Denver native, Mike earned a B.A. in Economics from the University of Colorado Boulder. He studied abroad in Denmark and after finishing college, moved to southern Germany to work for the Armed Forces Recreation Center in Garmisch-Partenkirchen in their accounting department. It was the beginning of a varied entrepreneurial business career, taking him from Europe to San Francisco, and back to Colorado where he’s been in real estate for 20+ years. He is an eight-time recipient of 5280 Magazine’s 5 Star Real Estate Agent award. Over his career, he has helped clients close 100’s of transactions. Mike is inspired by self-made people who had an idea, dream or concept, and through persistence and hard work, turned it into something amazing that benefits many. He strives to emulate these dreamers and entrepreneurs at work by building a real estate business that takes care of his clients and at home by being the best father to his two boys and husband to his supportive wife. When not putting his can-do spirit to work for his clients, you will find Mike skiing fresh powder, playing golf or tennis, drinking good wine, whiskey or craft beer, or cooking a meal to share with friends and family. He loves the Denver Broncos and music – especially live at Red Rocks. He even sings and plays the congas/bongos in a neighborhood dad-band called “Above TreeLine”! You could see him playing at a local pub near you. Above all else, Mike values being open, honest and transparent, believing that is the key to successful relationships. Fueled by his faith and belief in Jesus Christ, Mike prays daily for others and seeks a closer relationship with Him. Words Mike lives by: If you are going to do something, do it the right way or don't do it at all. When it comes to real estate, he has been known to talk clients out of purchases or sales because he knew it wasn't right for them. Mike understands that buying or selling a home is the largest financial decision in most people’s lives. His over 40 years of local knowledge brings valuable insight into the constantly evolving market. He loves the Denver front range and embodies the spirit of a CO native and couldn’t think of a better place to live. He truly enjoys sharing his love of his hometown with all.

Mike was referred to me by a friend and I was extremely lucky to get Mike as my realtor. Mike's attention to detail - even in preparing me to begin my search - was off the charts and immediately comforting. He was tireless in finding, filtering and walking me through properties, and was great at keeping me on track with what my original goals were. When it came time to make offers, his strategic approach, knowledge of current market realities and anticipatory planning made a huge difference. He successfully found me a property exactly where I wanted to be and dead center of the price point I laid out at the beginning. And he's a good person, so I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone that would be lucky to have Mike Baker guide them through this complicated process.

Mike is a huge nerd. When you think about it though, to be good at something, you need to be. Some personality traits lend themselves better to certain aspects of business: ethics, knowledge retention, adaptability, enthusiasm, Mike has them in surplus. His contemporaries have said that he is too nice which in a competitive business world can be a detriment, but he does not compromise his impeccable practices and is a relentless asset to work with.

Mike Baker is great!

We bought and sold homes with Mike. He is very helpful throughout the whole process and extremely knowledgeable in all things related to the Denver housing market. We wouldn’t go with anyone else!

Top Notch Service

I have had the pleasure of working with Mike on the purchase and sale of 2 homes in Douglas County (Castle Rock and Parker). Mike was extremely knowledgeable of the Denver market and was more than accommodating having to deal with our relocation schedule and having short windows to travel and look for homes. The first house we bought through Mike was our first home purchase. Mike did an excellent job walking us through the entire process. Mike is a top tier realtor, I would recommend his service not only to new home buyers but experienced buyers and sellers as well.

Mike is the best!

Mike started our as our realtor and has turned into our friend! He goes above and beyond and always has our best interest in mind! He has worked with us (and our family) and has helped us buy/sell about 10 homes! We trust him whole heartedly and wouldn’t want anyone else to guide us through the process of buying and selling our homes!
