David Bailey

David Bailey built his real estate career on the same principle that defined his decades as an investigative journalist: people deserve the truth. Before becoming a West Michigan broker, David spent more than 20 years uncovering facts, fighting for transparency, and earning five Regional Emmy Awards for his work. Today, that same commitment to honesty, precision, and steady communication guides every client he serves.

With 7+ years of consistent sales volume, David leads Dream House West Michigan as a boutique brokerage focused on clarity, calm, and client-first results. His background as a licensed private investigator and FAA-certified drone pilot gives him a unique edge—pairing detailed analysis with elevated marketing that helps every property tell its story the right way.

Whether guiding a family through a traditional home sale or supporting clients facing difficult life transitions such as divorce, probate, or senior relocation, David brings a rare blend of empathy and expertise. Clients trust him not just for his market knowledge, but for his steady presence, direct communication, and ability to bring calm to the chaos.

A lifelong advocate for truth and thoughtful decision-making, David continues to serve the communities of West Michigan with integrity, modern strategy, and a genuine commitment to helping people move forward with confidence.
