Since as early as 1985, Miguel Berger served as branch manager for two established brokerages in Albany New York, honing his skills by immersing himself in the inner workings of a real estate office. Having shown a knack early on for training and business sense, Miguel systematically retooled each office, increasing sales volume in one by 257% and market share from 20 to 55%.

Ready for a change and an early adopter of technology, Miguel struck out on his own in 2001 to create Tech Valley Homes, which in just 6 short years has grown from $10million the first year to $74 million in gross sales last year, and from 2 agents to 33 in three different locations.
