Experience. Ownership. A Better Way to Do Real Estate.
Shirley the Real Estate Lady is a real estate professional, broker, investor, and property owner who has been making moves in Michigan real estate since 1996. In 2011, she took that experience a step further by founding Better Living Real Estate LLC, her own brokerage built around a hands-on approach to real estate.
What sets Shirley apart is that she doesn’t just sell real estate — she owns it, invests in it, and manages it herself. That firsthand experience shapes how she works with clients and how she prepares her properties. When Shirley says a home is move-in ready, she means it: fresh paint, refinished floors, appliances in place, and a current Certificate of Compliance.
From buying and selling to leasing and investment properties, Shirley brings practical knowledge, an owner’s perspective, and decades of experience to every transaction. She works throughout Michigan with a straightforward philosophy: know your business, take pride in your properties, and treat people right.
Backed by professional credentials including GRI, ABR, CRS, SFR, and SRES.
Real estate is her business. Better living is the goal.
