Mike Altobelli's Reviews & Ratings

Mike Altobelli

  • Mike listed and sold my home

      Mike did an excellent job of explaining the process of selling my condo, telling me how to get it ready for showing, and keeping me informed along the way.

    • I bought my home near the peak of the housing market and was upside down with my mortgage. Several years later, I had to relocate from the area for work. To minimize my losses on my house, Mike helped me rent my house for 3 years. Mike also found some cost efficient contractors to do some minor repairs, took some good photos of my house prior to the house going on the market, and did numerous showings and open houses.Mike helped turn a potentially very negative financial situation into a net positive. I found Mike to be honest and professional. I would strongly recommend Mike.

    • Mike was great to work with. He knew all of the neighborhoods we were interested in very well. He was flexible with appointment times, and would routinely meet us early in the morning, late at night, and on the weekends as well. He was very honest, and helpful with his input on various homes, their condition, and also what repairs we could expect during the course of home buying experience. The selling agent for the home we ultimately purchased was quite difficult to work with, very shady, and Mike did a great job of making sure everything was taken care of fairly, and correctly. I would definitely recommend Mike to anyone looking to purchase, or sell a home.

    • We could not have been luckier with having Mike as our real estate agent. He helped us to both find our dream house and then to sell it a couple years later due to our relocation abroad. As we were looking for houses, Mike was readily available during our intense search, and stood out due to his great knowledge of the market and the area. Not only did we feel in good hands, but we also found a gorgeous house that proved profitable when we sold it a few years later. Mike sent two interior designers to stage our house, made sure that we would enter the market at the correct time, and provided us with great advice on how to to market and price our house. Due to his professionalism, we ended up selling our house for an excellent price in record time.

    • Mike was a pleasure to work with. Being a first time home buyer, he made sure to fully explain the processes we where currently going through, as well as what to expect next. When looking at places, he was extra prepared with other houses in the area that I may be interested in. I will be using him with future purchases and recommend him fully.

      - 02/15/2017 - cmarym3
    • Mike is wonderful to work with! I was a first time seller- Mike made the process very easy and was patient with all of my questions and needs. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone who is looking to buy or sell.

    • Mike was great to work with. He worked at our pace and was very responsive. He also helped us find reputable vendors to help get our property ready for sale. We will definitely work with him again.

    • My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael Altobelli to buy our first home. We could not be happier with the communication, professionalism and diligence of Michael Altobelli's wide range of services. We felt comfortable and confident at every point in the process, even when the search for the perfect place stretched from weeks into months. He was able to recommend a lender, a home inspector, and any other specialist that was required as we purchased a home, and they were all equally as pleasant to work with. I would recommend Michael to anyone and will use his services again for our next real estate purchase.

    • Mike is everything you would want in a realtor. He shows up on time to appointments, and delivers on his promises promptly without even needing follow up. For example, I am interested in buying the house he showed me, and he has already given me all the necessary information I would need to help with my decision. Things like, comparable home sales in the area, estimated cost to close worksheet both for buying and selling the home I am interested in, comparable rental activity for the home I currently have, etc. He is easy to reach by cellphone, text message, and email, and he really tells you what you need to know. I haven't given him any ratings for negotiation skills yet, as we are still early in the process, but from what I already know of him, I am certain it will be 5 stars as well.

      - 05/07/2016 - lesmerize
    • I not only sold a home in 2015 but bought one as well in 2016. Michael was my realty agent for both. I had excellent info for selling my home and we had an offer within 3 days of listing. Michael knew where I wanted to buy and kept me well informed of all listings in that community. He made every aspect of the sale a smooth process. I cannot thank him enough for taking such good care of me.

      - 05/03/2016 - kay brown638
    • I've purchased/sold several properties and worked with some really good agents, but Mike exceeds anyone Ive ever worked with prior. Mike is very thorough, detail oriented, and goes far beyond what most agents typically do for their customers. For this particular sale, we needed to make some repairs and have the well water tested. Mike located and contacted the service providers and then set-up all the appointments. Everything was completed before settlement and to the buyers satisfaction. Mike is an exceptional agent and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend him.

      - 07/08/2015 - Artisea
    • Mike was very helpful in my first time buying a home! In the beginning, we had an initial meeting where we sat down and he went over the entire home buying process to make sure I understood how everything worked. I felt comfortable calling with any questions or concerns that I had. He was constantly sending me listings for homes that were in my price range and fit the descriptions of what I was looking for. Which was not easy considering my price range while trying to afford something in the Montgomery County area. Every time I found a home that I liked he was very quick and responsive in sending me the information I was looking for, and also very quick to set up appointments to look at homes. It was a long process, but Mike was VERY patient with me and always willing to go out of his way to help. I would definitely recommend Mike to any of my friends or family looking to purchase a home!

      - 06/29/2015 - shannonprice812
    • Mike far exceeded any expectations we may have had. We hadn't sold a home in twenty years and Mike was there for us every step of the way. His advice proved invaluable in every aspect of guiding us in preparation and staging of our home. His honesty and genuine caring for our concerns during the entire process was always evident. We are sincerely thankful for the experience of working with Mike and we can confidently recommend him as a number one top notch agent.

      - 06/24/2015 - lkjohnson11
    • We've used Mike 2x now; once to sell our home in DC and now to buy a home in MD. We wouldn't consider another Realtor. He is professional while feeling like you've known him for years and could ask him anything. He is great with picky requirements and totally understood our need to look at every option and price point until we found the house we love. He worked on an extremely tight deadline to get us into our new home only a few weeks after our offer was accepted. We HIGHLY recommend him!!

      - 04/11/2016 - betsybowman 1010
    • Mike did a great job working with me to sell the house of friend who had asked me to be her personal representative. He was easy to work with, easy to talk to about repairs and moving the process along. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone.

      - 06/28/2015 - Keiran Atwell
    • Michael is professional, knowledgeable and has the clients best interest. I trust his opinion. Michael worked diligently with me and kept my needs and wants on the fore front. He is reliable and responsible, I will recommend him in a heartbeat. Finding realtors like Michael Altobelli has become a commodity.

      - 02/06/2015 - Larissa Amador
    • Mike is an absolute professional with a lot of experience and knowledge of the Metro DC area. We used him as our buying agent when purchasing a home, and at the same time use his management company to oversee our rental condo. He's always very quick with responses, and is not a "used-car salesman" when it comes to buying a home. He had plenty of patience with us over many months while we were searching for the right place. We've recommended him to a number of friends, and everyone has been satisfied.

      - 03/24/2016 - headsoak
    • I couldn't have asked for a better agent to handle my first home buying experience. Mike was very helpful in guiding me through this unknown territory and it was a pleasure working with him throughout the entire process. He is not only reliable, experienced and highly competent in all of the practical and business aspects of purchasing a home, but also has a gift for providing true customer service. He clearly worked towards helping me find the place that was just right for me, according to my own criteria. I never once felt pressured into considering a property in which I wasn't interested. In addition to his own expertise, Mike also has a great network of professional contacts who are skilled in providing the various additional services needed to make your home purchase a reality (e.g. obtaining financing). Although the dream of owning your first home is certainly exciting, the reality of actually getting there can be quite daunting. But, working with Mike as my agent the process felt as if it ran seamlessly. I love my new home and am very happy with the service he provided!

    • I highly recommend Michael Altobelli. I purchased a condo back in 2004 with Michael's help. Michael was very professional throughout the entire process, he showed me several condominium and townhouse units that were all within my budget and I eventually settled on my current condo. Michael has kept in touch with me from 2004 to now and I've discussed my future plans with him and plan to use him to purchase my next home.

    • Michael helped my wife and I purchase our first property. He made the daunting experience so easy for us. We had some hiccups with our lender and Michael was on the ball and ready to jump in and tackle the hard stuff. As a realtor he is one of the best, partly because he is just an all around great guy.

      - 09/27/2011 - ianpalmiero
    • I've worked with other realtors before, and Mike is the best, hand down. He is extremely responsive and proactive. He is very knowledgeable about DC/MD real estate and makes honest recommendations- he seems genuinely interested in actually getting you the house you are looking for, not just making the deal. I recommend Mike to all of my friends and family.

      - 12/24/2014 - afalls78
    • I was referred to Mike from a friend (another realtor) who didn't work in my area. Couldnt have picked a better option!! Mike was amazing to work with. From the start, he didnt try to sell us on anything or come off as showy with false promises. He was very responsive, open and honest and really worked to understand what we needed and where we were coming from. He gave us options, spent time making sure we understood our options and assisting way more than expected throughout the process. Never did we feel pressured and he left us feeling fully supported. Weve already recommended him to a neighbor and friend and will continue to do so! If we were re-purchasing in the area, hed be e only one wed think of using. THANKS MIKE!!

    • Michael Altobelli was able to help my fiance and me find our perfect dream home. His knowledge of the area helped us find everything we wanted at a very affordable price. This was our first time purchasing a house and Michael was able to advise us very well and help inform us on making such an important decision/investment. We were never pressured into anything and he was always aware of what things we were looking for, and what we were hoping to avoid. This is why I'm so thankful for his patience, knowledge and expertise in finding our house. After finding the dream house, he moved quickly at submitting an offer (well below asking price) and was able to get the seller to agree to other requests which all made our moving and purchasing experience a very smooth transition. It was always easy to get in touch with Michael, and he was always flexible which made the whole "house hunting" experience nearly stress free. Living in a house you love is amazing and I wouldn't have this luxury if it wasn't for Michael Altobelli.

    • Michael is a real pleasure to work with. He is very patient, respectful, kind and understanding. He can make a stressful event a lot more manageable.

      - 01/09/2013 - user5631869
    • Mike helped us to sell our house at the worst possible time of the year. He was very knowledgeable about the market in Bethesda and did a great job pricing our home right. His staging team was fantastic and really helped us show our home at it's best. The online photos and tour were great as well. We got a full price, non-contingent offer almost immediately, even though it was right before Christmas! More importantly, the buyer was a complete pain in the rear and Mike did a great job running interference and handling him, even when the buyer's agent essentially checked out once the ink was dry on the contract. I almost cancelled the sale about 5 times and if it wasn't for Mike's infinite patience, I wouldn't have been able to stick it out. Kudos to Mike for his great attitude and hard work. I'd use him again in a heartbeat!

    • Mike is a reliable, professional, and personable agent. My wife and I really enjoyed working with him and he made sure that everything was done right. He really looked out for us through the whole process. We have used Mike for the purchase and/or sale of three homes, and all three transactions have gone smoothly.

      - 01/29/2013 - user2326910
    • We were moving to the DC area from New York with little knowledge of the neighborhoods and towns. A friend referred us to Mike and we could not be happier with the experience we had. Mike took the time before seeing any houses to educate us on the market and geography. Any broker can ask a client what they want in the perfect house, but Mike took this information and put together productive days with only homes he knew would be of interest. Once we found the home we wanted, Mike was an excellent consultant and negotiator on our behalf. Even following the close, Mike has remained in touch and has been helpful as our family gets acquainted with the area. Anyone considering Mike as their representative should feel confident they will not regret the decision to work with him.

      - 01/11/2013 - user3939845
    • Mike is not only a great realtor, but also such a nice person. We worked with Mike buying our first home. We were very unfamiliar with the process but Mike guided us through it with superb knowledge and patience! He was always available to show us houses and responded to emails/voicemails immediately. We felt very lucky to work with Mike and I've already highly recommended him to my family and friends.

      - 01/10/2013 - user3805520
    • Mike took us through the process at our pace, communicated with us regularly, and provided helpful suggestions and pointers. We listed our town house and looked at single family houses with Mike. We ultimately decided to stay in our town house due to changes in our circumstances. We will definitely work with Mike in the future.

      - 09/21/2012 - infokonigin
    • Just purchased our first home with Mike's help and we couldn't be any happier! From start to finish he was professional, timely, knowledgable and truely helped us to feel confident in our descisions! He found our dream house, went to bat for us with negotiations and got us into our home on time and at a great deal! He really made us feel like we were his only clients, we would reccomend his services to anyone and everyone!

    • It was a pleasure having Mr. Altobelli as an agent. Mr. Altobelli was very familiar with the neighborhood I wanted to move to and was always more than happy to meet and view properties. His knowledge of home building and experience in the field of construction was a big help in guiding me to purchase the right home for me and my family. I appreciated having someone with an eye for detail, who could explain to me how good (or bad) a home was constructed. This ultimately, along with the price he negotiated, led me to purchase my current home.Mr. Altobelli kept me updated, informed, and was alway in contact with me throughout the purchasing process.I highly recommend Mr. Altobelli to my friends and associates, and recommend him to anyone who reads this review. I'm very happy with the home I purchased and the experience of working with Mr. Altobelli.

    • Michael along with his dad, Mark, were a great team helping us purchase our new home. They were always very responsive and knowledgeable of the entire home purchasing process. In addition to helping us purchase our new home, they also assisted us rent our previous home with advice, forms, credit check, and finalizing the rental agreement. Between the both of them they have decades of rental and resale real estate experience and have the reach back capability to access financial and legal resources to provide total spectrum support. Without doubt we would reach out to them again to assist us with any real estate needs. We highly recommend the "A Team" to anyone looking for a topnotch real estate service!

    • Michael was extremely professional and knowlegeable about the neighborhood and past sales history. He was also very responsive to all my questions and concerns and was a great negotiator with the buyer's agent. The paperwork was in order at settlement - all in all a very positive experience. My husband and I would highly recommend Michael Altobelli.

    • Excellent agent, very professional, and honest. I worked with Mike to purchase my first home. I was worried that the process would be hectic and stressful, but Mike did a great job making sure that everything went smooth.

    • Mike was very helpful in buying both our condo and current residence. He is very professional and gives you honest advice. Honesty is huge and Mike did an excellent job of providing us non-biased advice about the homes and recommendations.

    • If you are a Military person moving in to the Maryland/Northern Virginia Area...Michael Altobelli is the Realtor that you want!!! I was impressed with his knowledge, responsiveness, and INTEGRITY!! He is a pleasure to deal with and has an exceptional knowledge of the pros and cons of every area in the region. His knowledge of the market is exceptional, and his advice was spot on. I was very impressed with his depth of understanding relating to schools, shopping, and commutes. Bottom line, you will NOT be disappointed! He goes the extra mile, and genuinely cares about his customers. I can guarantee that he is going to be my Realtor anytime that I need one!

    • Mike Altobelli helped us to sell our home and purchase our current home. We sold quickly and were able to get into our current home without the need for contingencies on either end. It was a super smooth transaction. Mike comes from a line of experienced real estate agents, and it shows. He knows the market and makes excellent recommendations. He's also friendly and a great guy to work with!

      - 09/23/2011 - ck2011
    • My wife and I have worked with Mike to purchase 2 homes and sell 1. He is very knowledgeable of the home buying process and offered recommendations and feedback on all aspects of the selling process as well. As first time home buyers we had tons of questions and Mike had the answers to all of them. He listened to what we wanted and then was able to find what we were looking for. When we went to sell our first home he put together a great plan that got us 3 offers and under contract in 10 days. When we were ready to move Mike traveled a great distance to meet us and address all of our questions and concerns to get us into our new house. We highly recommend Mike and his team.

      - 09/27/2011 - bobboc6
    • Mike is a knowledgeable, personable and customer oriented agent. He is patient and genuinely likes to work with people. He will not try to change your mind, and will help you expand your knowledge as a buyer or seller. I highly recommend Mike Altobelli as an excellent real estate agent.

      - 09/24/2011 - DianaTato
    • My fiance and I met Mike 8 months. Although we have yet to purchase a house, he has been our "go to guy" about the house buying process. He responds to both phone calls and emails in timely manner, he gives you information about the area of your interest, and he takes the time to ensure that you not only find your perfect home but you also acquire the best deal. When we do find our perfect home, Mike will definitely be the Realtor of choice. His dedication to us thus far on our search says it all.
