Looking to sell your property, buy a new home, or just need some expert real estate advice?
My name is Michael C Harbord and I am a real estate professional with over 25 years in the industry. I am a lifelong resident of Ocean County making me very familiar with neighborhoods, schools, and recreation in the Jersey Shore. My expertise encompasses a broad range of homes from low-end to high-end, including waterfront, condominiums and adult communities throughout the area. I proactively advise my clients on every aspect of home selling and purchasing while achieving optimal results. Through my extensive experience I have developed and implemented strategies that lead the way through the transaction process by keeping abreast of the changing market conditions, trends, and property values.

He's the best.
We were working with another realtor, and realized he was not very knowledgeable about waterfront properties.
We met Michael at one of his listing and immediately saw how professional he was.
We began working with him. Michael knew what we were looking for and our budget he also did the research so that there where no suprises. With a little tough negotiating on our behalf we found just what we were looking for.
You'd be foolish not to use him
Michael was on top of everything from start to finish. From the way he markets the property to any/all questions he is there. I will only be using him in the future.
My fiancé and I had a WONDERFUL experience with Micheal Harbord. He’s on top of his game, super helpful with information about all of the surrounding towns, and is consistent with showing the homes. He made our experience so fun, I recommend him to everyone that is starting the house hunting adventure.
Michael is a shining star. He helped us for an extended period of time to get this house ready for sale. Once it was ready, he had it sold in days with multiple offers, above the asking price. He continuously went above and beyond for us and was always pleasant about it. Michael is professional, knowledgeable, responsive and helpful. I wouldn't think twice about using Michael again and you shouldn't hesitate to have him list your home or assist you in purchasing one.
Michael was referred to me through a trusted friend and i was not disappointed. We were purchasing our home on a contingency sale and from our first conversation prior to hiring him as our realtor, he was knowledgeable, supportive and honest. Our house was on the market within 72 hours of our first conversation. In a wild market, he always made himself available (day/night/weekends) to us to see properties just as they came on the market. When we found a house we loved, Michael worked tirelessly to make sure that our offer was accepted. Once the offer was accepted, Michael continued to stay involved in the process to be sure all the pieces were falling into place and remained on schedule. We sold and closed on our new home on the same day and Michael was an integral reason the process was so smooth. Even after we closed on our home he remained available to answer any questions. I love that he still calls or texts just to check in! I really dig this guy and the service he provides.
