About The Swaseys

We are a husband/wife team who began our real estate career with a passion for helping people. Having purchased and sold many homes ourselves, we understand that it can be a complicated and emotional experience. Our philosophy is simple: treat you like family, provide exceptional service, and take care of you every step of the way.

As a combined family, we have four children between us. It’s wonderful to see the adults they’ve become and the great futures they are creating. Now as empty nesters, we’ve moved back to the Detroit area to be closer to family and friends. Our house is not completely quiet though, as we have two wonderful dogs to keep us company, Milo and Oscar, plus Ruby the cat. Milo, our old black lab, is featured on our Swasey Team logo, as we champion charities that focus on the well-being of animals.

Tom was a business executive in the automotive industry for over 30 years prior to entering real estate. His engineering leadership positions helped in developing a well-rounded business and technical knowledge base which included experience in finance, problem solving, marketing and leading teams on a global scale. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Industrial/Manufacturing Engineering from Central Connecticut State University and an MBA from Plymouth State University. His education, along with his professional experience, prepared him for a real estate role where customer service, attention to detail, communication, marketing skills and technical acumen are key for success. Transitioning to real estate has been tremendously rewarding for Tom, with the ability to work with great people, both coworkers and clients, as his favorite aspect.

Susan is both a Spartan and a Wolverine. She earned a bachelor’s degree in Dietetics from MSU and a master’s in Education from U of M. Prior to working in real estate, Susan was the director of the regulatory department for a large global food company. Similar to real estate, food manufacturing involves many complex federal, state, and local laws, rules and regulations that must be followed. Team building and training, development of policies and procedures, and strong customer service were her main areas of focus to ensure success. Her varied experience, skills and education all contribute to her passion for helping people achieve their real estate goals.
