Michael Alex

Michael Alex delivers! Two years after a lost-job bankruptcy and foreclosure, we needed to get back in the real estate market to find a new home to get out of a problematic rental and we were struggling to find a viable solution. It was a tall order and weren't really getting anywhere until we met Michael. Michael cut through the problems, found us a great house and ushered us through the short-sale problems and delivered a no-money-down VA loan at an exceptional price. You will simply not find a harder-working, more knowledgeable real estate expert than Michael Alex. We highly recommend him!

If you are looking for a hard working, knowledgeable, smart Realtor, Michael Alex is the agent.Michael has always been fair and honest,patience and professional and never put no pressure on me during the home buying process. I have used three other agents in the past and all were bad experiences, and seemed like they only cared for there paycheck. Michael Alex really cares and always stayed positive and helped my fears by answering my questions promptly during the search, bidding process, escrow, and even after closing.Michael also referred me to a great contractor that I was very pleased with upgrades in my property.I highly recommend Michael Alex, Thanks Michael for your excellent service!

Michael Alex is everything you want in a real estate agent, the BEST knowledgeable, passionate, hard worker, friendly and most importantly trustworthy. Michael doesnt just care about his paycheck, but cares about each of his clients. I've worked with other agents and nothing compares to Michael! He gets the job done in every part of the home buying process. From home searching to financing, escrow and title services. His lender is also the best in the business, together as a team, my home purchase was the smoothest ever. From pre-qualifying me with a great interest rate, his lender offering closing cost assistance, since my offer on my home was accepted with five other offers on the table, the seller didn't assist with closing cost assistance. At the end I paid market value for my property, and happy with the complete process. I have recommended him to all of my friends/family, and would do so to anyone.

Michael is an extremely talented straight-up,no pressure agent who goes the extra mile.This one has our strongest recommendation.His knowledge,expertise,great communication skills and extreme strong work ethic is a cut above the rest.He was always available to answer our questions and really listened to our needs.He worked diligently to make the entire process as simple as possible.We highly recommend Michael Alex for all your real estate needs!

I got redirected to Michaels page by a website that sent me to the wrong place. I'm so happy to say that I got to talk to Michael. Even though I'm no where near him, he took it opon himself to help me out and find a local agent for me. He is extremely amazing when it comes to keeping in contact with his clients and customer service is number one on his list. I have had such a great experience with him. Thank you Michael.

I'm a senior loan officer for San Diego Funding and I highly recommend Michael Alex to be your realtor. I have been in the mortgage business for 14 years and Michael is one of the hardest working agents I know. I see him in the office 7 days a week. He is 100% percent dedicated to his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure they are satisfied. Michael is hard working, friendly, knowledgeable, energetic and professional. You will not be disappointed!

My wife and I were looking to buy our first home and Michael was our Realator. My wife and I were new to this process and Michael help us every step of the way. He was very professional and was always available to us day and night, 7 days a week to answer all our questions. He was aggressive when he needed to be and always got our offers to be taken seriously by other real-estate agents. This is a really tough market right now and there is a lot of competition for homes and you need a strong Relator like Michael in your corner. After months of trying to find a home Michael found us a wonderful 4 bedroom short sale in the area we were looking for. Michael again worked day and night on this very tough short sale transaction and he closed the deal for us in early August 2013. My family and I are ready to move into our new home thanks to Michael's hard work and dedication to his clients. If you are looking for a great realtor look no further you have found it with Michael Alex.

Michael Alex fought for the house God saved for us. The home was perfect, it was on the market two years and had a cash offer on it. Despite the circumstances Michael trusted us and didn't pressure us into settling for less. He was sensitive to our needs and bargained for our loan as well. As a first time home buyer the home buying waters are full of sharks but Michael is truly a life saver. To him we owe so much I know our future children and our neighborhood will benefit from the hard work he did! You ROCK Michael! Grace and peace, The Blackshears

Following the big decline in the housing market, I decided to get into buying investment properties. Although it may seem simple enough, getting into this business is full of danger. If you are buying investment properties you need someone who understands this field thoroughly. The best deals are often distressed properties, short sales, and foreclosures. The kinds of problems these properties can present are beyond what most realtors can handle themselves.After wasting a lot of time and money learning the business, I realized that this was something that I needed help with. The problem is that there are lots of realtors out there who will tell you what you want to hear in order to make a quick buck off of you. Realtors can not only be deceptive, they can be incredibly lazy. I had to do a lot of my own research just to be sure that my realtor was covering all the angles. I grew tired of working with realtors who keep trying to do what worked for them 5 years ago. I needed someone hungry, someone who could adapt quickly to whatever changes happened in the real estate market.A friend highly recommended Michael to me after he bought an investment property. He said things went incredibly smooth for him. Michael helped him from beginning to end. When you buy an investment property you need to quickly estimate how much the house is worth as is, how much time and money it will take to repair ,remodel the house, how much you can sell it for at market value and if there is any liens on the property. And you need to know this within a day because other investors can purchase the property.After buying my first investment property, I can safely say that working with Michael was a revelation. He not only understands things from an investor's viewpoint, he has lots of hands on experience in this field. He answered all the questions I had, and was genuinely interested in making sure that I learned about the process along the way. Michael always carries himself with such confidence and professionalism, I always felt reassured that he was on my side.Michael set me up with his team and affiliates and after remodeling the property and I made a nice profit! Michael understands the market inside and out in every aspect and always put my interests first. Ive built a great working relationship, but most importantly built a lifelong relationship.

I highly recommend Michael to list your property. Michael worked very hard under difficult circumstances to do my short sale. Wells Fargo only gave us a month to sell my condo so Michael was under a lot of pressure. He even helped me clean for the open house! He kept up with all of the banks demands which could change daily. All in all Michael was very professional and amiable. I avoided a foreclosure. My credit was not as severely effected and Michael even worked hard to get me the $3000.00 check at close of escrow. I recommend Michael for all of your real estate needs.

Michael provided unprecedented service and is a quality agent. He recently helped my parents sell a condo in the 92130 zip code area last month. I do not live near my (elderly) parents, so I felt a little bad that I could not help them get the place ready for market. Michael helped them stage the condo --brought in furniture at no cost, hung pictures, and made the place look really exceptional. I was amazed to hear the level of service he provided--even helping them with some repairs. My dad said Michael came up with great suggestions that really worked. How do we know? The place sold within weeks and above market. In a time when so many are just trying to make a quick buck, Michael demonstrated professionalism and sincerely cared about my parents' situation. I am so thankful that my parents were in such good care. Michael--if you ever read this, "I sincerely thank you for your help and care of my parents, and the sale of their property."

Mike was responsive and aggressive in finding me a home. Truly a buyer's agent. Always had my back! Definitely recommend Mike!

Michael Alex has to be the best real estate agent out there!! Prior to working with him I worked with two different agents. I felt that I would be better off making all of the calls and the house hunting on my own, as I had to contact them on a regular basis to follow-up with the process. It was a complete nightmare! In 2010, I gave up on searching for a home, because it was too much for me to handle, especially being that Im single and was planning on purchasing alone. I met Michael in November 2012. He invited me into his office and after I explained that I was no longer interested in buying at the moment due to my past experiences, he immediately gave me his word and promised to find me the perfect property with the best customer service ever. So there I went! Third time is a charm. Michael is EXTREMELY aggressive and ON TOP of things. I felt taken care of every step of the way!! Was he available when I needed him? EVERY SINGLE TIME!! Just so you have an idea, I made my current home offer in his office with my boyfriend at 10:30 pm on a WEEKEND!!! Regardless of the time or day, he NEVER said no to showing me houses. Till this day, I am still under the impression that this man does not get ANY sleep! He is very, very nice and respectful. He validated my feelings every step of the way and was never pushy. He always used to say, Listen, in the end, you need to pick what makes you happy. That is how I always knew that he is NOT in this career just for the money. My loan was FHA and being that this market is EXTREMELY competitive as sellers are looking for conventional, cash. I competed against 12 other offers (including cash) and Michael along with his lender (Mark Buchanan) with San Diego Funding made it happen!!! I greatly appreciated how attentive they were with me. Their calculations were right on. They said we will close the deal in ONLY 21 days and I did. Michael said he would find me a home with a mortgage payment that I was comfortable with, and it was EXACTLY the amount that I stated I wanted to pay from the very beginning!! All in all this process was the exact opposite of what I experienced with the other two realtors. Mark and Michael worked together made the process truly a breeze. In the end, to top it all off, Michael kept his word by hooking me up with brand new appliances at out of this world prices through a contact that he has in the retail home improvement business. If you are at all concerned about purchasing a home and you would like to work with people who treat you with respect, kindness, and practically hold your hand every step of the way; then youll be in the BEST hands with Michael Alex and his lender Mark Buchanan (from San Diego Funding). I totally recommend these guys for your real estate needs!
