Amy Michaels

Amy Michaels is simply amazing. As a homebuyer with very specific needs (a multigenerational home with wheelchair accessibility) and a pressing timeline, the prospect of looking for a new home was daunting. I met Amy at an open house she was hosting and was impressed by her easy demeanor, knowledge of the market, and ability to intuit my needs as a fellow Bethesda/Potomac parent. Her follow up was super prompt, she was always responsive and Pleasant, and she was incredibly proactive in her search (she even tracked down the absent owner of a house that was not on the market that she thought might be a good fit). She connected me with her Long and Foster network of resources but did not at all pressure me to use them (they were good referrals and I found it convenient to have a prescreened set of options). She also checked around with her colleagues for specialty contractor referrals that she did not have. She maintained her enthusiasm and sense of investment over the several months it took us to find a house that met my family's needs. Despite my harried schedule and family challenges, Amy was always super patient and I never felt pressured. She gave tips, advice, and support that went above and beyond the call of duty. And, finally, she was a fantastic advocate as we went through the process of making an offer and closing. She helped me get a great house in a great neighborhood at a great price. I really am grateful that we had Amy on our side. I strongly encourage anyone looking for a knowledgeable, proactive, and responsive realtor who will truly represent your family's interests to call Amy Michaels.
