My husband and I both couldn't have been happier with Mike! He was extraordinarily helpful and patient as we asked him lots of questions and had something very specific in mind. Mike went above and beyond to help us find our dream property. If you are looking for a trustworthy, kind, understanding and competent realtor, Mike is your guy!

Mike is very knowledgeable in his field. The house he helped us sell was a somewhat unique and difficult sale. Mike was always responsive and attentive, easy to work with and helped us accomplish what the previous realtor could not. I would recommend and use Mike again.

It was great working with Mike. We were out of state and not only did he preview properties for us, he did live video tours for us. He was always able to answer any and all questions we had and was always willing to grow that extra step. We would certainly work with him again and recommend his service to others. Thanks again Mike for all your help!

Mike Steed kept me informed during the negotiation of purchase which was short and sweet.
His communication skills are very good and important since I am an oversea buyer.

This was our second experience with Mike Steed. While looking to purchase a property, we needed a professional representative and our previous experience with Mike made him our obvious first choice. We highly recommend Mike Steed to anyone looking to purchase or sell real estate..

Mike Steed showed another home first, was friendly, down to earth, and helpful. We had a good rapport immediately. So I asked him to assist with another home that I ended up buying. He was very helpful and gave much of his time to the process. Very much appreciate his professional help.

We've used Mike for multiple homes now and every time is a great experience! He walks you through the entire process and is honest and thorough. It's more like having a friend or family helping you in the process than a realtor.

I worked with Mike Steed – an excellent agent. He listed my place in April and we were on contract in 3 days, for more than the asking price. He is an excellent negotiator with a very personalized touch. Highly recommended!

Mike was great from start to end. He kept constant communication open and answered all our questions, and if he didn’t have an answer, he found it. Made the whole process easy and a lot less intimidating.

Mike negotiated an offer for us in the first 5 days of listing, then provided excellent professional guidance thru until closing. We will ask him to help us sell our daughters house soon, we trust him. Thanks Mike

Mike was always so patient with me and my husband in finding our first home. He answered all of our questions even on the weekend and after hours! It was more like having a friend helping us find a house than a real estate agent! And he was always very upfront and honest with us. Didn’t make us ever feel pressured at all.

We found Mike Steed to be a very friendly, yet professional agent. He made us feel very relaxed and confident that we would find the right home for our family. His hands on availability brought us a lot of peace of mind in what typically is a stressful time. We are grateful to work with him.

We couldn't ask for a more affable and considerate agent.

We will seek out the services of Mike Steed for all our future home purchasing and buying endeavors.

My Dad is a Broker in TX, I ask him to find me the best realtor in Columbia to help us find a new home. That Realtor is Mike Steed. His knowledge of property values, the local community and ability to assess client needs make him a top pick. We will be calling Mike when it comes time to look for a new house. Give Mike a call, you won’t be disappointed.

Mike listened to what I was looking for and found many excellent listening. When I found the right house he made sure to keep me informed of all the details of the entire process. Mike went above and beyond to work with my mortgage lender and the seller. He worked out a great deal that made myself and the seller happy.

We interviewed several agents. Mike Steed stood head and shoulders above all other agents we interviewed. From the time of the interview to signing a contract with Mike, he kept in touch with us, sent us a Christmas card and showed a genuine interest in marketing our home. During the selling process, he kept us in the loop at all times and walked us through the process painlessly. Comments on the internet about Mike were ALL positive and that was a good indication that he was our best choice.

It was a supreme pleasure working with Mike. He made everything easy.
