Randy Bierlein

A highly talented and thoughtful Principal Broker and Real Estate One Gladwin owner, Randy Bierlein is passionate about helping his clients achieve their real estate goals. He approaches real estate with the fundamental assumption that his job is to advocate for his clients, providing superior client service. Motivated by the fact that no two days in real estate are ever the same, with every client, property, and transaction presenting its unique challenges, Randy looks forward to working through them. The love for what he does and his tenacity to stay the course to find the needles in the haystacks sets him apart in a crowded field.

Prior to joining real estate, Randy worked in an accounting office for ten years. The nudging urge to work for the public, where he would face new challenges daily, propelled him into real estate. Randy also owned and operated a carpet and paint store for 20 years in Gladwin. While there, he acquired excellent organizational skills, a unique aesthetic sense, attention to detail, sound judgment, and problem-solving skills. The experience further made him very personable and elevated his customer care and ability to focus on the client’s needs and offer personalized service.

Randy’s educational background in Business Admin, Accounting, & Psychology aligns well with his personal and professional goals in real estate, giving him an understanding of the human aspect of real estate transactions and helping him run the back office. He is an active member of the National Association of REALTORS®, Michigan Association of REALTORS®, Clare Gladwin Board of REALTORS®, and Water Wonderland Board of REALTORS®. Randy’s clients benefit from his direct access to reliable and up-to-date information on market trends, giving them a competitive edge in the marketplace.

Randy’s client-centered approach is based on what is best for the client, not what yields the highest commission. His clients receive a dependable ally to negotiate on their behalf and the systems in place to streamline the buying process. A Resort and Second-Home Property Specialist specializing in waterfront buyers, Randy’s competency lie in his extensive knowledge of the local markets and customs. He advises, guides, and educates his clients, effectively empowering them in making one of their most significant financial investment decisions.

Randy is committed to white glove service anchored on the core values of professionalism and customer satisfaction. His friendly and responsive personality gives his clients peace of mind and assurance that he will walk with them from the start to closing and after the transactions. He focuses on establishing healthy professional relationships with his clients and earning their confidence. These attributes make Randy an outstanding advocate for first-time and seasoned home buyers. Ultimately, it’s about matching the right buyer to the right seller. Make Randy your real estate matchmaker for a stress-free experience.
