3rd Coast Real Estate · Milwaukee and Cedarburg, Wisconsin

The third coast is the freshwater one.

I list and sell homes from Brewer's Hill to Door County, and I am the contractor who could rebuild them. Mike Styke, owner of 3rd Coast Real Estate and Third Coast Renovation.

Two companies, one owner

Sell it. Build it.

3rd Coast Real Estate sells. Third Coast Renovation builds. I own both, so the person who walks you through a house is the same person who can price what it needs.

Clients

5.0 on Zillow, six reviews.

Every word below is a client's, copied from Zillow as written. Local knowledge, process expertise, responsiveness and negotiation skills each rate 5.0.

"Mike was fantastic to work with; easy going, professional and very detailed. ... There was another offer on the house we wanted, but Mike was creative during negotiating and we got the house we always wanted. Every step of the way, he catered to our needs; late night calls, early morning questions - him and his wife even had a new born during our search and he still never missed a beat! During the showing of the house, the lady was fixated on the stools in the kitchen, but the sellers wouldn't include them. So to top it off he even found the stools and bought them for us as a moving gift!"
Nicholas Hornyak, bought a house in Pewaukee, 2013. Zillow.
"We are first time home buyers, and Michael was fantastic. He knew the market and the neighborhoods. He understood our particular needs and our budget. He was also quick responding to texts and emails, and he was pleased to show us several properties in different price-ranges. We contacted him when we were still trying to decide whether we wanted to get into a house or a condo, and he was glad to let us explore all of that. He worked with us on our timeline, the negotiations (the home was in relocation, so the negotiation was a little more complicated than usual--Mike was great), the inspections etc.. I gather that we were clients in a lower price range than some of his other clients, and we were treated with the exact level of respect and responsiveness as if we were buying a million dollar home. We would use Michael to buy or sell a home in a second."
First time buyers, Riverwest, Milwaukee, 2016. Zillow.
"I've worked with Mike while buying and selling 3 homes. He has been very professional and knowledgable at every step of the process. He has always kept my interests a priority. He has consistently listened to my exact needs and followed through perfectly. I will use him again and I recommend him to anyone in the market to buy or sell."
Sold a house in Mequon, 2016. Zillow.
"It was great to work with Mike. We were first time buyers so the process was very new. Mike helped us understand the buying process and guided us with each step necessary to buy a home. He was always there to answer any questions we had, if there was a house we wanted to look at he made himself available right away. Mike helped us find the perfect home for our family. We would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home."
First time buyers, Mequon, 2016. Zillow.
"Michael was extremely helpful. He helped facilitate the purchase while I was overseas. Michael represented my best interest every step of the way. He made me very comfortable with this process and ultimately got me into a home I love. He also followed up and made sure I was settling into the Milwaukee area. I highly recommend Michael."
Mark S Manning, bought a condo in Brewer's Hill, Milwaukee, 2016. Zillow.
"Michael was a pleasure to work with on the purchase of my condo. He was very professional, prompt with his responses, and available for any questions along the process. He is very knowledgeable and seems to research properties thoroughly before showings. ... I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

On the build side

"Mike and Alan are great to work with and all of their subcontractors were very professional and did excellent work. Price was the most reasonable of all the estimates I'd gotten and Mike really understood what I was going for in terms of quality, design and future use and offered practical suggestions and worked with some of the unique issues of an older home."
Dan P., 2020. Angi.
"These guys were the top of the line. I was so pleased with the service and the workmanship."
