Team Kinnear

Mike is an amazing realtor to work with. We are so lucky to have been introduced to Mike. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, loyal, and honest… And I cannot stress that enough. Whenever my husband and I would go to a viewing with Mike, Mike was great at catching the small details that could potentially lead to a big headache for a homeowner later down the road. Mike takes the time to learn about his clients to get a throrough understanding of not just what the client wants, but what the client needs. Mike also did a great job of breaking down the pros and cons of a home for us, while also keeping things real. We have been so happy with Mike and we will continue to share his name with friends and families to come!

We would strongly recommend Greg Kinnear to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. He helped us purchase our first home in 2015, and most recently sold our home for far above the asking price (60k above). Throughout the entire process, Greg was professional, knowledgeable, detail-oriented, easy to talk to, and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. He gave us great advice about selling a home and the whole process was seamless from start to finish. It was great working with him!

Although Greg was referred to me as an excellent agent, his performance exceeded my expectations. He sized up my situation quickly, made absolutely accurate assessments and sold my home at a good profit much above estimated assessments. Everything was done with clock -like precision. I am totally satisfied with his professional service and recommend him highly. Superior!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Michael for our first time buying a house. We met him by chance at an open house in Feb. 2020 (pre-pandemic) and had an enjoyable time chatting with him. It was immediately clear that Michael is friendly, good natured, down to Earth, and not pushy -- exactly what we were looking for. We took him up on his offer to meet one evening (maybe a week later), where he sat down and walked us through the house buying process. He explained the whole process very clearly and did an excellent job answering our myriad of questions. It was clear he was experienced and familiar with the process.

With everything shutting down for the pandemic around March, we put our house hunt on hold for a few months. By early summer, we deemed the risk acceptable to resume attending open houses, so we reached out to Michael for him to officially be our buyer's agent. With everyone wearing masks indoors and maintaining proper physical distancing, we started visiting houses with Michael. He was really helpful. His experience and knowledge made him able to offer honest opinions of houses and their pros/cons, and he often had constructive ideas for ways to use rooms or make improvements (and sometimes even renovations). We particularly appreciated his eye for potential issues with houses. He's done a good job over the years of learning from house inspectors, and can offer an unofficial, rough-pass opinion of the state of a house before you get too far along in the process.

When we finally found a house we liked, Michael made the bidding process quite easy. We had no clue what to open bidding at, so we asked him for his opinion on our semi-arbitrarily selected number. He warned us that it was likely such a lowball number that we might get laughed at and countered with essentially no give from the seller. We further asked him (again, not pressured!) what he might suggest, and we happily opened bidding with the number he suggested. We were quickly able to agree on a price with the seller (Michael handling all the communicating and paperwork, of course) that was only slightly higher than our opening bid. Noteworthy for the very hot market in our area in 2020, our final price was also below the list price of the house. Admittedly this is house-specific, since our house had some detractors that would turn off 90% of buyers, but were actually selling points to my wife and I. (We're DIYers, so having a large, unfinished basement and lacking a back deck were exciting future project opportunities.)

For communication, Michael was very responsive and easy to reach by email, text, or phone call. He was very good at accommodating our requests to view houses, which I'm sure was harder than normal given the extra pandemic occupancy restrictions on open houses (only one interested party at a time was permitted in a house). When we were in the final stages of closing on our house, he kept us well-informed in a timely manner of where things stood and helped us not forget anything. We never felt confused or left out of the loop.

We opted, but were not pressured in any way, to work with a number of people that Michael recommended: the house inspector, lender, and title company. We had very positive experiences all around and won't hesitate to reach out to Michael in the future if we need further recommendations for people to do work on the house that we can't do ourselves.

On the day we closed on our house (mid September), we discovered that the seller hadn't bothered to mow the grass for at least a week or two, so it was rather tall and unsightly. Michael promptly arranged to have someone cut it the very next day at no expense to us. Since we hadn't yet bought a lawnmower (being busy closing on the house and preparing to move out of a local apartment), this was a kind gesture that made our lives easier at a rather hectic time.

All in all, Michael is great as a buyer's agent, and a good person on top of that. Likeable, knowledgeable, helpful, not pushy, and patient. Highly recommended.
