REALTOR of the Year | Mike Annelin

REALTOR of the Year | Mike Annelin slideshow item

It is our great pleasure to announce our 2022 REALTOR® of the Year, Mike Annelin with Century 21 Northland. It was just last year that Mike was awarded the Aspire North REALTORS® President’s Award. Past President Dave Wilsey felt he was more than deserving because of his upbeat attitude, industry knowledge, community involvement, and the integrity required to succeed in our industry. Those same qualities have earned him recognition for the second year in a row. 

As one of Century 21's top producers for the past 16 years, Mike has a wealth of knowledge in the Real Estate industry. He wants his clients, fellow REALTORS®, and new real estate agents to know that his door is always open. Mike is always game to help others in the industry. That helpful spirit comes naturally to him, and he puts it to good use in his community.

Mike has been involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters for many years, both as a Big and serving on the fundraising committee. His Little graduated from High School this year, and he couldn’t be prouder. Mike also invests time each month to participate in Century 21’s 21st-of-the-month events. Whether it be adopting a teen angel for Christmas, giving monetary donations to the local organization that the company sponsors each month, or even adopting a highway clean-up, he is always willing to help.

Outside of his work in real estate and the community, Mike spends time with his wife, two kids, and puppy.

Congratulations, Mike! We're proud to have you representing Aspire North REALTORS®!

As the Communications and Marketing Director, I oversee all the messaging and the manner in which it's delivered to our members.  This includes managing our weekly newsletter, social media presence, the members-only Facebook group, and our MLS Talk listserv.  With a background in visual arts, design, photography, and videography, I also help to develop original graphics, advertisements, and photo and video content.  If you're at one of our many events and see someone walking around with a camera, that's me!  As the unofficial tech guru of the office, I also work with staff to research and implement new technology and/or processes to better serve our members and reach them where they live, something that has become more important since the time of COVID.
