I will be using them again! So I was trying to buy a Short Term Rental property - site unseen from out of state. Through a series of contacts, I asked a great mortgage broker - "do you know any solid performing, go-getter realtors up in Panama City Beach area?" Without missing a beat, he gave me Mike Vogel's name and contact info. And he was right. Mike and Sarah helped us every step of the way. First of all, he knew the market thoroughly: location to focus on properties, historical issues with certain communities, features of neighborhoods - all with a purpose of making us successful. They had many contacts in the area - sometimes bringing off-market deals, needed services, and all the quick things you need when trying to move fast in an aggressive market. They are polite, friendly, extremely responsive, and just plain fun people to have as business partners. I'll be buying again in the market and I'll be staying with Mike and Sarah to get it done! Don't hesitate to call them!

We have use Mike as our realtor for two separate purchases. He makes the process so easy! Both him and his assistant, Bailey, stay on top of anything and everything you need. When we are ready to sell or buy again, no doubt who we will be calling!! HIGHLY Recommend!

About Mike

Mike Vogel's journey to becoming a real estate agent was a natural progression from his prior career in sales and customer service. After 15 years of selling software to human resources and payroll companies, while buying and selling real estate on the side, he took his understanding of sales and customer service and decided to apply it to a real estate career.

After earning his real estate license, Mike cut his teeth at a local brokerage selling condos, but soon realized he needed to look for the right career fit in real estate. A series of introductions brought him to Scenic Sotheby's International Realty, where he is building his own team, The Vogel Group, and was recently joined in its day-to-day operations by his wife, Sarah.

Hailing from central Florida, Mike has been coming to the area since his family purchased its first beach house in Blue Mountain Beach. After a short time living in Texas, he and Sarah, and their children, Andrew and Norah, decided to make the Emerald Coast their permanent home.

Today, he works closely with buyers and sellers along the Emerald Coast who are looking to maximize the lifestyle and investment opportunities available at the beach. His love of real estate stems from the ability to work his business from anywhere and his desire to help people buy their dream, based on their preferred return on investment. He considers himself a good listener and knowledgeable about the nuances of local communities and marries those traits for the benefit of his clients.

In his free time, Mike enjoys golf, paddle boarding and surfing. You can frequently find him following his kids' sports teams or reading and listening to favorite authors and influential figures.
