Mike Gilbert was born and raised right in the heart of Downtown Boston. From day one he has developed not just a deep appreciation and love for the city and it's diverse neighborhoods, but has a lifetime worth of strong connections that to this day continue to further his business. Mike has an impressive educational background after attending institutions including Catholic Memorial High School, Stonehill College, as well as the Collège International de Cannes on the French Riviera. He thereafter graduated with a major in Business Management and a minor in both the French language as well as International Business.Before taking on his passion for a career in real estate, Mike worked at some of Boston's most famous restaurants for over ten years. This deep understanding for not only working with others but of putting his customers first has helped Mike's transition to the field of real estate immensely over eight years ago. In addition, Mike's earlier years were spent working alongside his father on renovating properties due to his father's background as a Master Tradesman. This extensive early exposure regarding a home's construction, the potential of certain spaces, and the risks and rewards associated with a property have all been ingrained in him.Now having lived in the Back Bay of Boston for over nine years, Mike is based out of the Gibson Sotheby's International Realty flagship office located in the South End of Boston at 556 Tremont Street. His deep-rooted attention to detail, thorough manner when carrying out business, and informative and responsive relationship he establishes with his clients is second to none. Prior to joining Sotheby's, Mike was the top producer for another Boston-based real estate firm for over three years, building a massive sphere of influence with investors in particular. It was the pull of the Sotheby's global brand, their expertise in the latest technology and trends for marketing, and benefit from an affiliation with the Sotheby's Auction House that made the recruitment of him by Gibson Sotheby's International Realty ultimately an easy decision.Mike is a current member of the Massachusetts Association of Realtors, the Greater Boston Real Estate Board, and the National Association of Realtors. In his spare time, Mike is a weekly contributor to the Animal Rescue League of Boston, and also donates to the Family Service of Greater Boston, The Fisher House, and the Walk for Hunger. After playing Division 2 football in college, Mike now spends most of his personal time staying active with Crossfit and has completed fourteen marathons including the Boston Marathon, Chicago Marathon and the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington D.C.
