Healthcare Research Report: The Growth of Ambulatory Surgery Centers
Healthcare Services Report | Q3 2025
As Managing Director of Colliers’ Maine office, my responsibilities include leading day-to-day operations in the office and fostering continued growth and market share in the state of Maine.
I specialize in many sectors of commercial real estate including office, industrial, retail, and investment sales. My previous experience in residential real estate has translated well to multifamily and mixed-use investment properties.
I became a licensed real estate professional in Maine in 2007, but I grew up with a father in residential development and have really been around it my whole life. I have extensive experience in client negotiations, as well as a background in construction, project management, and land development.
Prior to joining Colliers, I was a partner at Cardente Real Estate. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Business Management with a focus in Finance from Eckerd College. In my early years, I attended Cheverus High School, where I developed strong networking and personal ties to the Portland community. I still reside in Portland with my wife, Ali, and maintain strong relationships with both alma maters.

“Thank you for all your help with my first experience in leasing office space. You showed us a great range of properties and were always willing to answer any questions that I had. We are very excited to be moving in the coming weeks and could not have done this without you. I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone I know looking for commercial space. You are motivated, honest, and enthusiastic.
Once again, thank you so much.”

“I’ve known Mike Cobb for around four years. Our family moved to New England and conducted a 1031 tax exchange. Mike was the seller’s agent and did a great job. When we decided to sell the same property in Maine, I asked Mike if he wanted to list it for us, and he did. The sale went well and I’m glad I went with Mike. He possesses knowledge of the market some people twice his age don’t have. From institutional sized deals all the way down, he has a good mix of data driven analyses along with a thorough understanding of timing and people. He’s an excellent negotiator, always keeping it above board and straight forward. It’s been a real pleasure working with Mike on both projects. He’s a hard-working guy, dedicated to serving Maine and the Portland Community.”

“Thank you for finding our new location! We were in an existing space for over 25 years and reached out to Mike at Colliers to find us a spot to move our production facility for light duty transmissions. You found it in a very timely manner and I just wanted to share our appreciation for getting us into this great building and for finding it so quickly.”
