About Our Businesses
Excellence By Education And Experience
Hampton Properties Ltd. was established in 1992 by Mr. Kennedy as a real estate organization affiliated with The Kennedy Law
Firm. Both Hampton Properties Ltd. and the Kennedy Law Firm are located in Petoskey, Michigan.
Hampton Properties acts as a buyer's broker or a seller's broker of Northern Michigan real estate for The Kennedy Law Firm's clients as well as for
those individuals who are not legal clients but who desire the advantage of brokerage services by a realty firm that has the backing of a law firm.
Our offerings of both real estate brokerage and legal services from a single source is patterned after Europe's traditions of 'Solicitors' also being
'Estate Agents'. (The office signs of those Old World law firms often advertise themselves today as "Solicitors, Estate Agents and Notaries" and
belong to exclusive services on which only attorneys can advertise their clients' properties ("Solicitors Property Centres"). Like our European
colleagues, The Kennedy Law Firm and Hampton Properties provide coordinated legal and brokerage advice (...and, yes, notary services, too ). This
unique customer care benefits every property transaction. Everyone is invited to use our services. Everyone is invited to benefit from the following
services:
Free Legal Services: When Hampton Properties is a participating broker in a real estate transaction, then The Kennedy Law Firm provides free
customary legal services to Hampton's customer who is involved in the transaction. The representation starts with the customers' first involvement
with a transaction and continues until it is closed. Only realty firms whose brokers are also lawyers provide that legal talent to a real estate transaction.
Talent Pool: Hampton Properties Ltd. has three realtors, working as a team, serving its customers from throughout Northern Michigan and
around the world. They are: Mr. Michael Kennedy (Broker and Chairman of the Board), Mrs. Robin Burmeister (Salesperson and President) and Mr.
William Day (Salesperson and Vice President). Mrs. Burmeister has a natural talent for judging the characteristics of properties. As a legal secretary,
she has been responsible for hundreds of property transactions and mortgages over two decades. Mr. Day is a retired President of National City Bank
in Petoskey and a retired President of Citizens Bank in Charlevoix. His insight into properties' financial matters is uncommon in the realty business. If
you want talent serving you, then you want Hampton Properties.
Immediate Sales: It is not unusual for Hampton's properties to quietly sell before they can be publicly advertised for purchase. The broad
client base of both The Kennedy Law Firm and Hampton Properties Ltd. often produces private purchasers for Hampton's properties. Please call
Hampton and let us know what type of property that you are looking to purchase, and we will, in turn, contact you as our customers' properties
become available for sale. Hampton's properties can unexpectedly become available for sale due to its customers' retirements, relocations, family
and other life changes. Therefore, Hampton recommends that you tell us now about your property interests, in order that Hampton can immediately
tell you later about its properties that are entering the market.
Hampton's properties may be located throughout Northern Michigan and elsewhere. For example, properties are often found in the Northern Michigan
resort communities of Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Walloon Lake, Lake Charlevoix, Traverse City, and Curtis. For information about our customers' real
estate that are now publicly available through Hampton Properties Ltd., please visit our Property Listings. For National and Area Multiple Listings you

The Kennedy Law Firm was established in 1978 by Michael Kennedy. Upon graduating from Wayne State University Law School in
1974, Mr. Kennedy first practiced law as a United States Judge Advocate in federal courts, and worked on Environmental Protection Agency issues.
Thereafter, he returned to his northern Michigan home town of Petoskey to begin his private practice as a Michigan attorney.
The Kennedy Law Firm emphasizes the practice of all probate, estate and real estate law. On matters, for example, of condominium law, land
development, and the buying and selling of property, Michael Kennedy has been an expert witness, counselor, or speaker to foundations, banks,
surveyors' conventions, legislative subcommittees, townships, as well as state and county departments.
Michael is a member of the Emmet-Charlevoix Bar Association, the State Bar of Michigan, the State Bar of Michigan Probate & Estate Planning
Section, the State Bar of Michigan Real Property Section, as well as past member of the Condominium Committee of the State Bar of Michigan and
the Northern Michigan Estate Planning Council.
Mr. Kennedy's involvement in the Petoskey community include being: Past President of the Emmet-Charlevoix Bar Association, Past President of the
Emmet County Red Cross, Past Chairman of the Emmet County United Way, Past Community Advisory Board Member to the Petoskey Salvation
Army; and a member of the Petoskey Regional Chamber of Commerce. Of course, Mr. Kennedy is familiar with, and has acquired valuable insights
into, Northern Michigan's properties and people around which he grew up and now works.
