Michelle Keene is a dedicated real estate professional with RE/MAX Bayshore and a proud member of the Dakoske Team—a group of exceptional agents known for their integrity, strong values, and elevated client experience. With three years of experience specializing in Northern Michigan, Michelle brings a thoughtful, client-first approach paired with a deep appreciation for the lifestyle this beautiful region offers.
Michelle believes real estate is about more than transactions—it’s about people, relationships, and life-changing moments. Whether working with first-time buyers, seasoned sellers, or anyone in between, she is committed to delivering a seamless, personalized experience with a level of care that makes her clients feel both confident and genuinely valued.
She prides herself on being approachable, responsive, and fully invested—because to Michelle, her clients are never “just another deal.” They’re people she gets to champion, celebrate, and often stay connected with long after closing day.
A Northern Michigan enthusiast at heart, Michelle thrives in the summer months, and is happiest when she’s near Lake Michigan. On a rare day off, you can usually find her and her daughters, significant other and furry friend at Elk Rapids beach. When winter inevitably rolls into the “Great White North,” she fully embraces her other favorite hobby—planning her next warm-weather escape (purely for balance, of course).
At home, Michelle is a proud mom to three wonderful daughters, has a strong and supportive family, and shares life with Oliver, her long-haired dachshund who brings just the right amount of personality to the household.
Michelle’s passion for real estate comes from a simple place: she truly loves helping people. There’s nothing more rewarding to her than watching clients step into a new chapter of their lives. Being trusted with that journey is something she never takes for granted—and it’s what continues to inspire her every day.
Helping her clients achieve their dreams isn’t just her career—it’s what allows her to live hers.
