Mike Bell is an award-winning real estate agent specializing in Lake Murray and Lake Wateree, two of South Carolina’s most sought-after lakefront destinations. Raised in Columbia, SC, Mike has always appreciated the balance these lakes provide as spaces where families can unwind, explore, and create lasting memories.
Alongside his work in real estate, Mike has built a strong career in leadership and operations. For over seven years, he is currently overseeing more than 10 retail locations across South Carolina. This role sharpened his skills in management, customer service, and problem-solving, qualities that now serve his clients well as he guides them through real estate transactions with confidence and care.
Since entering the lake and waterfront market two years ago, Mike has quickly distinguished himself as a knowledgeable and approachable expert. His commitment to clients earned him the 2023 Rookie Agent of the Year award at Century 21, a recognition that reflects both his professionalism and his passion for helping others.
Living just minutes away from Lake Murray and Lake Wateree, Mike frequently enjoys boating, lakeside dining, and spending time with family in these vibrant communities. He understands firsthand what makes lake living so special: breathtaking scenery, land with character, and an atmosphere that fosters positivity and well-being.
At home, Mike is a proud husband to Hilary and a devoted father to Hampton and Harper. Whether it’s a movie night at home or a day out with friends and neighbors, Mike values making memories and investing in relationships.
Joining Lake Homes Realty was a natural step for Mike, as the brokerage’s people-first philosophy mirrors his own. For him, real estate isn’t about transactions. It is about impact. Helping families discover the joy of lakefront living is what inspires him every day.
