Years of Experience
Meet Jeff
Before real estate, I was a firefighter and EMT.
That experience continues to shape how I work today. Preparation matters. Clear communication matters. Staying calm under pressure matters.
For more than twenty-six years, I have helped buyers and sellers across Northville, Novi, South Lyon, Plymouth, and Brighton move forward with clarity and confidence. I live here. My family is here. I have built this practice one honest conversation at a time.
When families are navigating important transitions, a new home, a downsizing, a divorce, a loss, steady leadership makes a real difference. That is the work I care about, and that is the work I have been doing for twenty-six years.
No pressure.·Just clarity.
— Jeff Duneske, Associate Broker
How I Help
Every move is different.
Below are the four most common situations I guide families through. If your situation is not listed here, reach out anyway. Most real estate questions do not fit neatly into categories, and that is usually where the best conversations start.
01
Selling a Home
Data-driven pricing, professional marketing, and a steady presence from first conversation to closing table.
Sellers →02
Buying a Home
Honest guidance on neighborhoods, school boundaries, and what each home is really worth. No pressure to move before you are ready.
Buyers →03
Senior Transitions
A patient, coordinated process for families right-sizing into the next chapter. SRES certified.
Senior Services →04
Divorce Real Estate
Discreet, neutral, professional support during one of life's most difficult transitions. CDRE certified.
Divorce Services →Communities
Local knowledge, earned one street at a time.
Each of these communities has its own rhythm. The neighborhoods. The school boundaries. The way buyers and sellers behave in a given season. Twenty-six years of walking the same streets gives you a kind of knowledge that is hard to replicate.
What Clients Say
Relationships, not transactions.
Seventy-five percent of my work comes from past clients and their families. That number, more than any award, is what I pay attention to.
