Julie Baker: A Dedicated Real Estate Professional Guided by a Spirit of Service

With over seven years of dedicated experience in real estate, Julie Baker has established herself as a trusted and respected professional serving the Greater Grand Rapids and Lakeshore areas. Her journey is defined not only by her accomplishments, but by a steadfast commitment to service?both to her clients and her community.

Before pursuing a career in real estate, Julie built a strong foundation in precision and care as a Cardiac Surgical Technologist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Lenox Hill Hospital. That experience cultivated her meticulous attention to detail and deep sense of responsibility for the well-being of others, qualities that now shape her approach to real estate.

A proud Army Reserve Veteran, Julie served as a Medic and Surgical Specialist, where she developed not only technical expertise but also a profound respect for the dedication and sacrifice of those who serve. Married to a combat veteran, she brings an especially personal understanding to the needs of active-duty service members and veterans navigating the home-buying or selling process.

Julie's clients benefit from her broad range of experience and thoughtful guidance. Whether working with VA loan buyers, first-time homeowners, seasoned investors, or later-life clients, she tailors her strategy to each individual's goals. As an investment property owner herself, she offers valuable insight from firsthand experience and a genuine desire to help others achieve financial success through real estate.

Her leadership and commitment extend beyond her business. Julie was honored with the Ken Schmidt Humanitarian of the Year Award (2023) for her outstanding dedication to community service and veteran advocacy. She currently serves on the GRAR Government Affairs Committee, and as a Board Member for both K9 Camo Companions and the Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP), where she also serves as Government Affairs Liaison.

A proud member of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), Michigan REALTORS® (MAR), and the Greater Regional Alliance of REALTORS® (GRAR), Julie upholds the highest standards of professionalism and ethics in every aspect of her work.

At the heart of Julie's philosophy is the belief that real estate is about more than just property?it's about people, stories, and the milestones that define their lives. With every transaction, she strives to make the process as meaningful as it is successful, ensuring that laughter, connection, and care remain at the center of every step.

In Julie Baker, clients find not only an experienced real estate professional but a trusted partner who approaches each relationship with integrity, empathy, and an unwavering dedication to helping others achieve their real estate dreams.
