Michael's real estate career started when he bought his first house at 18. Now over 45 years of experience later, Michael has three employees and works in all lines of real estate including commercial, residential and multi-family. His home base is Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo County, but he has done deals all over the United Stated and also in Costa Rica. He's sold and leased hundreds of millions in commercial property over the years from small, free standing commercial buildings to shopping centers and he is well versed in all aspects of commercial property sales.

His small but mighty team is one of the top producing teams on the Central Coast. They are all about helping people achieve their dreams and their intention for their life through great real estate transactions. Michael always approaches transactions as though it was his property that he's buying, selling or leasing.

His team and he are proactive in getting listings sold. Their goal is not to collect listings but to move the property that they have listed quickly and get a great price for the sellers. Michael also loves to do acquisitions regardless of the size… He loves to see “the look” on people's faces when they walk onto that they were meant to be in.

Michael's team includes himself as the front man for touring properties and negotiations, Erik O’Sullivan, realtor associate, Maria Tun for in house transaction coordination, marketing and ground control, Brittany Crabtree for general administration and Amelia Puhek for social media and marketing. All who work with a high level of ethics and integrity.

Erik O’Sullivan

Erik is a local and neighbor to many on the Central Coast. He has naturally fallen in love with the beauty San Luis Obispo County provides. He can't get enough of it! His favorite part about the real estate industry is creating long-lasting relationships with clients and the opportunity to help others grow and achieve their personal goals.

Erik is excited to be part of RE/MAX Success and Team Puhek! They are a small but mighty top-producing team on the Central Coast. They are all about helping people achieve their dreams and their intention for their life through outstanding real estate transactions. Erik comes from a background that is well-versed in the world of personal relationships through business. He graduated from the University of Nevada Reno with a BA in Communication and Entrepreneurship. He has had hands-on experience launching his own business that created accessories out of upcycled sailboat sails with a full manufacturing line and e-commerce presence. Having a business background has allowed him to transfer his skills in to negotiating deals and taking care of buyers with precision.

Maria Tun

Transaction Coordinator

C: 805.621.2902

I'm a certified Transaction Coordinator and a Notary Public. I'm a mom to a new baby girl, a stepmom to a 6 year old boy and a sister to two younger sisters. In my free time, my favorite things are Jiu-Jitsu and Kickboxing, I found these sports as an adult and I love them! I also enjoy working on my art and woodwork. I am naturally a nurturer and helper. Which I think are traits that help me do my job with Team Puhek. I've been doing TC work for close to 7 years, over half of that time has been as part of Team Puhek. I'm a pretty meticulous person that likes order in my life, so being a TC is perfect for me! Auditing files and making sure i's are dotted and t's are crossed is fun for me. My favorite part about my work is running a smooth transaction, building relationships with our clients and sharing the exciting news that their Escrow has closed. It definitely gives me that accomplished feeling.
