Selling a house is stressful, especially if the seller already moved to a distant location as in our case. Michael helped us to ease the anxiety from the very beginning of the process. His knowledge of the business and the area enabled him to develop the best selling strategy for us, maximizing the proceeds and minimizing the stress. The house needed some upgrade and extensive repairs to correct termite and fungus damage. Michael stepped into the construction project manager role and oversaw the activities happening mostly during the Thanksgiving-Christmas holiday season while we were already in our new home, 400 miles away. He took care of the coordination and scheduling of the contractors, reviewed their work before releasing funds to pay the bills. All along he informed us of the project status, and discussed any decisions that needed to be made. He advertised the home all over the Web (AdWerx) well before the official listing, giving the home exceptional publicity. He also arranged preliminary showing for agents and brokers before the home was officially listed. 100 people showed up on the first open house, and Michael obviously handled the crowd well. He even tidied up the home for the following open house a week later, when 50 people came by. Several offers were presented soon after the open houses, and Michael summarized and tabulated the sometimes confusing offers for us to help with decisions. Michael's responsiveness is exemplary; he ALWAYS responds, whether it is late night, or holiday, regardless of his whereabouts. 20 years ago Michael helped us to find this house under extreme time pressure. We are glad we asked him 20 years later to sell the same house.

Michael was wonderful in helping me find the perfect house in a market with limited inventory and quick sales. He was extremely professional, exceptionally responsiveness and incredibly patient. He quickly ascertained my style and what peaked my interest, and was able to identify potential homes early in the process. He also knew the realtor selling my home, which gave him added insight into helping manage the entire process of selling one home and buying another. I would highly recommend Michael for anyone buying or selling a home.
