About Michael Hankerson

Michael Hankerson brings a background that's genuinely unusual in luxury real estate: a former tech entrepreneur turned real estate broker and mortgage professional who has spent his career in Arizona's most prestigious markets. That combination of technology fluency, financial expertise, and deep local roots shapes everything about how he works — and why his clients keep coming back.

A lifelong Arizona resident, Michael founded the Hankerson Team and serves as Designated Broker of the Link Brokerages Luxury Division — a role that reflects both his market standing and his commitment to elevating the standard of luxury representation across Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, and Tucson. His focus is on multi-million dollar smart homes, luxury developments, and off-market investment properties — the kind of transactions that require discretion, precision, and a network built over years of consistent high-level work.

As a licensed mortgage broker through First Link Mortgage, Michael also brings integrated financing capabilities to his clients — streamlining the path from offer to close and providing a level of transactional coordination that the luxury market demands. For buyers and sellers operating at the top of the Arizona market, Michael Hankerson is a name worth knowing.
