Hi, my name  Michael Gutleizer—most people know me as Mickey—and I help people in South Florida buy, sell, and invest in real estate with clarity and confidence. My clients are everyday homeowners, first-time buyers, and investors who don’t just want another agent; they want someone who’s going to fight for them, guide them through every step, and keep the process stress-free.

Here’s how I do it. For sellers, I design a clear plan to get their home noticed: the right pricing, smart marketing, and advice on how to present the property so it stands out. For buyers, I make the search simple and the negotiation strong, so they get the home they want without feeling lost in the process. And for investors, I connect them to opportunities that actually make sense in the South Florida market, not just whatever pops up on a listing site.

What makes me different is the background I bring to the table. Before real estate, I ran my own public adjusting company for almost a decade. That experience taught me how homes really function, how to spot issues others might miss, and how to negotiate under pressure with real money on the line. I don’t just know the contracts—I know how to protect my clients’ interests in ways that most agents can’t. 

And my process works. Sellers I’ve worked with walk away confident they got the best value for their home. Buyers tell me they felt supported and understood, not rushed or pressured. Investors trust me to find deals that match their goals, because I treat their investments as carefully as if they were my own. The reason is simple: I combine local market knowledge with the same persistence and problem-solving I built as a public adjuster.

When I’m not negotiating deals or coaching agents through my team, Backyard Tribe, I’m spending time with my wife and kids, enjoying the South Florida lifestyle I get to help others find for themselves.

If you’re looking for someone who knows the market, cares about the details, and actually delivers results—let’s talk.
