Recent Sales Activity

Over the past 12 months, MLS records show Michael on 11 closed sales (2 as the listing agent, 9 representing the buyer), about $4,507,050 in total sales volume. Most active in Lebanon, Miamisburg, Franklin, Fairborn, Turtlecreek Township and Middletown.

Overview

Michael Slafka is a REALTOR with Plum Tree Realty, a brokerage with offices in the Cincinnati and Dayton areas. His brokerage roster entry places him with the Plum Tree Realty office at 9078 Union Center Blvd in West Chester, and his Plum Tree agent page lists him with the same office. His tenure with the company began in January 2016, according to his professional profile.

Over the past 12 months, Slafka closed 11 sales across the Dayton-area MLS, totaling $4,507,050 in volume. Nine of those transactions were on the buyer side and two were on the listing side, a mix that reflects a practice weighted toward helping buyers find and close on homes.

His work is spread across southwestern Ohio rather than concentrated in a single neighborhood. Closings this year touched ten different communities in Warren, Butler, Montgomery and Greene counties, from Lebanon and Springboro to Fairborn and Centerville.

The Sales Record in Numbers

Slafka’s 11 closed sales in the past 12 months produced $4,507,050 in total volume. That works out to an average of roughly $410,000 per transaction, though the median is lower at $325,050, which points to a handful of higher-priced sales pulling the total upward.

His price range is wide. The least expensive sale closed at $190,000, and the most expensive reached $1,175,000. That span, from an entry-level purchase to a seven-figure transaction, shows a practice that is not tied to one price tier. His own professional profile describes a buyer price range from about $30,000 to nearly $2,000,000, which is a self-stated figure, and his recorded closings sit comfortably inside that window.

Of the 11 sales, 9 were buyer-side and 2 were listing-side. On those two listings, the median time on market was 107.5 days, and the median sale-to-list price ratio was 99.1%. One of the two listings sold at or above its asking price, and the other closed slightly below. With only two listings in the window, those figures describe a small sample rather than a trend, but a 99.1% median ratio indicates that sellers came away close to their list prices.

The property mix is also worth noting. None of his closings were new construction, and none were multifamily sales. About 55% of his sales were renovated homes, which suggests a practice oriented toward updated, move-in-ready properties for a majority of his buyers.

Where He Works

The geographic spread of Slafka’s closings is broad. Lebanon was his most active area with 2 sales. Single sales closed in Miamisburg, Franklin, Fairborn, Turtlecreek Township, Middletown, Union Township, Franklin Township, Centerville and Springboro. He recorded no sales in the City of Dayton or in West Dayton during the period.

In Lebanon, his two sales had a median price of $334,000, compared with an area median of $370,000. Lebanon sits in Warren County, and the figures place his buyers somewhat below the typical price point there. In Miamisburg, his sale closed at $190,000 against an area median of $274,900, a more affordable entry into a market where the typical home costs more. Union Township followed a similar pattern, with a $220,000 sale against an area median of $349,000.

In Franklin, his sale closed at $260,000, matching the area median of $260,000 exactly. Turtlecreek Township produced a $500,000 sale, a little above the area median of $485,000.

Other areas ran above their local medians. In Fairborn, his sale closed at $325,050 against an area median of $220,000. In Middletown, a $265,000 sale compared with an area median of $230,000. The largest gap came in Franklin Township, where his sale closed at $580,000 against an area median of $312,000.

Taken together, the pattern is one of flexibility: some closings below the local middle, one at it, and several above. Records also show him as the buyer’s agent on a Springboro sale, and his personal agent page shows a Fairborn listing among his properties.

Background and Credentials

Slafka is listed as a REALTOR on the Plum Tree Realty roster and on his personal agent page, which carries Ohio license number 2016001132. His professional profile dates his time with Plum Tree Realty to January 2016 and lists Geneva College under education. One online directory lists a title of Executive Sales Vice President at the brokerage.

He describes his specialties as single-family homes, multifamily properties and investment properties. In the past 12 months, his closed sales were all non-multifamily and non-new-construction, so the single-family side of that description is the one reflected in the recent numbers.

His professional profile also describes him as ranking in the top 5% of agents in Cincinnati. That is his own statement and has not been independently verified here. He is listed as a 2025 RPAC investor with the REALTOR Alliance of Greater Cincinnati, a contribution to the industry’s political action fund.

The Ohio Division of Real Estate directs license holders to verify status through com.ohio.gov/real, the state’s current lookup portal, for anyone who wants to confirm licensing details.

How the Record Fits Together

Slafka’s year is best read as that of a practitioner working a wide territory. Eleven sales across ten communities, with no more than two in any one place, point to a business built on individual relationships and individual properties rather than on a single subdivision or a single price band.

The buyer-heavy split, nine of eleven sales, is the defining feature of the year. On the listing side, a median of 107.5 days on market is longer than a quick turnaround, but the 99.1% sale-to-list ratio shows that the homes that sold did so near their asking prices.

The renovated share of 55% and the absence of new construction suggest that much of his activity involves existing homes in established areas. Combined with a median sale price of $325,050 and a top-end closing of $1,175,000, the record shows a practitioner comfortable across a broad range of the southwestern Ohio market.

Slafka works under the Plum Tree Realty name, which also lists an office in Dayton on Far Hills Avenue. His own roster entry and agent page place him in the brokerage’s West Chester office, in the Cincinnati area, and his Dayton-area numbers reflect closings in the communities on the northern edge of that market and in the Miami Valley corridor.
