About Michael
Tenacious, innovative, and always on the move, Mike Davis is New York City's preeminent real estate authority. He’s achieved a stellar track record of success throughout his 20 years in the business, and more importantly, he takes great pride in a long list of loyal clients and esteemed colleagues.

Mike and the DAVIS TEAM have closed well over $1 Billion in real estate sales total and have been ranked among the Top 1% of realtors in the country by the WALL STREET JOURNAL for the past 4 years running.
 
Mike heads the DAVIS TEAM at Compass, specializing in sales, rentals, and new development projects in Downtown Manhattan’s & Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods. He’s an established leader in condominium, loft, and townhouse markets and a certified neighborhood expert in the prime Tribeca, SoHo, Chelsea, Gramercy, Village enclaves, and Williamsburg, Greenpoint, and across Brownstone Brooklyn.

Mike Davis is a fierce negotiator known for setting price-per-square-foot records for sellers and locating outstanding deals for buyers in this competitive market. He knows every building below 69th Street inside and out, and clients rely on his expertise and down-to-earth personality.
 
In the trenches and a true local presence are the keys to success in New York real estate, and Mike is a fixture in Downtown Manhattan and North Brooklyn -- where he’s lived for over 20 years. A Brownstone Brooklyn owner, he loves an authentic neighborhood connection, vibrant culture, and sprawling outdoor spaces. Dubbed “The Mayor of Brooklyn” by friends and colleagues, to walk around New York City with Mike is to be greeted by shop friends, former clients, and neighbors on nearly every block.

Mike has lived in New York City for almost 25 Years, but as a native of Northern Virginia, he’s accustomed to a Southern charm and sensibility. When he asks, "How are you doing?", he's genuinely interested in connecting. When he’s not hard at work with clients, Mike can be found spending time with his French wife of 10 years and their adorable twins exploring Europe and the great outdoors. On the rare occasions he’s not working, he’s working out with his celebrity wife or enjoying museums and Movie Night with the family. Life is good!

Mike graduated from George Mason University with a BA in International Relations and Fellowships in 'Political Science' at La Universidad de Costa Rica in San José, and ‘Eastern European Development' at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. Needless to say, he loves to learn, travel, and connect with the people of the world.

Testimonials

Paula & Matthew 
★★★★★
As first-time homeowners, we were looking for a lot of guidance and he provided just that - clear and thorough market data and a lot of direction. Together we landed on an incredible property with beautiful views in our ideal location. Michael’s deep knowledge of Williamsburg allowed us to truly envision how this investment could play out in the future. He is patient and thorough - everything from financing to inspection to closing was facilitated with the help of his long-standing relationships within the real estate world. We recommend Michael to anyone interested in purchasing their home.

★★★★★
My family is very happy in the Condominium Michael helped us find and purchase. We LOVE where we live and we have Michael to thank for that!

★★★★★
Michael K Davis knows Williamsburg and Greenpoint like only someone that has lived there for years can. He has helped me navigate the complicated world that is real estate in NYC to help me find a reasonably priced townhouse. I would recommend him to anyone.

Juliette Shimkin
★★★★★
Michael Davis recently helped me buy a property in Brooklyn. He provided clear market data, sent me property details, and found me an extraordinary Penthouse that filled all of my needs (including 312 square feet of terrace with a view of Manhattan), and was in my price range. I didn't think it was possible. I LOVE my new home. I wasn't even interested in the building, and Micheal did a great job of coaxing me to go see it "just to see it" and lead me in the perfect direction. He has great intuition, and he not only helped me find great properties but talked to me at great length discussing many of my financial and personal concerns about buying a home--he was not only professional, but greatly supportive. I recommend Michael to anyone serious about purchasing or selling anywhere in NYC.

Martin Hoffman
★★★★★
I am a landlord and use Michael to list and rent the Garden Duplex in my building. Because of his marketing savvy, my property has been written up in major NYC newspapers and blogs. Michael has a special way of creating a buzz about his property listings. I could not ask for a more professional broker to represent my best interests as a property owner. I will continue to recommend his services to fellow Landlords, friends, and associates in the market.

★★★★★
If you’re looking for a great agent I highly recommend Mike Davis - His industry knowledge and ability to focus on your needs no matter how complicated makes Mike & Marta a “best in class” Team - They went above and beyond to close our family’s home at a great price. If you’re in the market planning to sell or buy please reach out to the Mike & Marta Team today! It will make your life easier!

Rachel Bonsignore
★★★★★
As longtime renters and first-time buyers, we were apprehensive about the entire process of buying a home in NYC, and if that was even possible for us. Everyone at the Mike + Marta team made the process smooth, easy, and enjoyable to boot. We felt well taken care of the entire way, with a team that was not only attentive and responsive to our needs, but one that provided us with valuable guidance on every aspect of this complex process. They walked us through each step along the way, and even introduced us to other vendors that made every phase, from open house to final closing, painless and pleasant. We encourage anyone currently on the market, or even considering a purchase, to connect with this amazing team!
