BROKER ASSOCIATE
Growing up in Eastern North Carolina, Michael Stroud developed a deep appreciation for the coastal lifestyle, spending summers with his family at Wrightsville Beach. The beauty of the beach community and activities like swimming, fishing, and boating fostered his strong connection to the area and its culture.
After graduating from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2004, Michael merged his passion for helping others with his dedication to the local community by launching his real estate career. He quickly learned that successful transactions are built on truly understanding clients’ needs, clear communication, and utilizing his extensive local knowledge alongside current market insights. With over 20 years in the industry, Michael has worked with luxury homes, investment properties, vacation homes, first-time buyers, and commercial real estate.
A firm believer in giving back, Michael has dedicated years to volunteering with local organizations and coaching youth soccer, always striving to make a positive impact in Wilmington. In his leisure time, you’ll find him on the water or at the beach with his significant other and children, playing golf, watching college basketball, or spending time with close friends.
Proud to call Wrightsville Beach and Wilmington ‘home,’ Michael’s real estate success is driven by a commitment to ongoing education, a deep understanding of market trends, and a personalized, client-focused approach to every transaction. His passion for the area and dedication to his clients make him a trusted partner for anyone navigating the Wilmington real estate market.
Michael was the BEST agent! I cannot recommend him enough. He was incredibly patient with us through our process of finding the RIGHT property for us. Michael is very responsive and always made himself available to answer any questions we had and research properties thoroughly before viewing them. He is also very trustworthy and candid, making it very easy for us to feel comfortable and secure in purchasing our property. I truly enjoyed working with him and will happily work with him in the future.
Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with from day one. He was always ready to jump on any new opportunity we found that might be a fit, as well as uncover any pertinent info to feel comfortable prior to making an offer; rental comps, year roof was replaced, any red flags, etc. In addition, he is a straight shooter and incredibly knowledgeable with all neighborhoods in the area. I cannot recommend him enough, and look forward to working with him again on my next purchase!
