Lynn Robinson, Associate Broker

Welcome to beautiful Northern Michigan!  If you are looking for an experienced Agent to assist you in the purchase or sale of your home or property, let me guide and assist you through the entire process.  There's nothing more satisfying than helping someone find their dream home, the excitement of a first-time homebuyer, or the satisfaction of Sellers whose closing allows them to move forward on a different path.  Whether you are looking for the perfect home, a summer retreat for the whole family, a quiet up-north getaway, or a commercial business, I can assist you in finding the right property and close the transaction.

Many of our Northern Michigan Clients are second home or resort property owners.  Although my specialty is Waterfront and Luxury properties, I am experienced in all aspects of the Northern Michigan real estate market!  Give me a call, I would love to work with you!

The Power of Partnership

When you choose me as your Agent, you actually get two!  I partner in real estate with Mark Knapp, who is also my brother.  We've worked together for the past 15 years, and have over 58 years of real estate experience between us.  Our different experience, strengths, and backgrounds complement each other, and we use them to assist the best interests of all our Clients!

Professional Background

My Real Estate Career began 19 years ago (2001). Originally, I worked for the Developer of several luxury real estate developments but primarily worked in the Real Estate Sales Office of the one in Northern Michigan. By 2003, I obtained my Real Estate License and worked full-time as Office Manager for a start-up resort/luxury real estate office in Petoskey.  My position included all aspects of scheduling, marketing/advertising,  review of title work and contracts, bookkeeping/accounting, and statistics. At the same time, having my Real Estate license allowed me to gain experience in sales as well. I have been a full-time Realtor with Coldwell Banker Schmidt Realtors since 2005. Utilizing my past experience in luxury and waterfront, I specialize in the Global Luxury waterfront and resort markets.  I obtained my Associate Broker License in 2011. Prior to my Real Estate career, I was a Legal Assistant for 18 years, which laid a solid and disciplined foundation in not only details and ethics, but also computers, research, and administrative and business practices. Today, I enjoy assisting clients in all aspects and types of Real Estate here in Northern Michigan!
