There’s no place like the Upper Peninsula.
I’m Adam Taivalkoski, and I approach real estate differently.
Over the past 10 years, I’ve found joy in finding and selling homes in Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula. As a lifelong Yooper, I’m drawn to properties full of character—from quaint cabins and historic hideaways to remote riverfront and lakefront luxury homes. My local connections and “whatever it takes” mantra have served buyers and sellers alike.

“Phenomenal to work with"
"Adam was phenomenal to work with. He listened to what I was looking for and provided me with many options while looking at all from multiple perspectives to help me see all of my options. Adam also asked the questions I had not thought of, helping protect me through the purchase process. I would gladly reach out to and work with Adam again in the future."

“No pressure or headaches”
"Adam did a great job selling our house, we got more than we expected with no pressure or headaches."

SAVU, pronounced saw-vu, means smoke in Finnish. As a person of 100% Finnish descent, I try to embody the traditional Finnish values of being hard-working, having sisu (grit), and striving for simplicity.
Why smoke? Smoke coming out of a chimney tells us that a house is a home. A fire has been lit. A family is inside, safe and warm. I thrive on finding and selling houses that become homes.
What does SAVU mean?
