Michelle was great! We had the easiest time buying our first home. Whenever I needed anything I felt like I could reach out and she always answered the phone or quickly got back to us. Michelle helped us negotiate, get ahold of the correct people, help us inspect the home, and just a genuine person! I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone that is going to buy or sell a house!

Michelle was an excellent agent and advocate throughout the homebuying process. She kept me in the loop whenever there were things I needed to know and handled the mundane in my stead, freeing me up to take care of my responsibilities. She made the whole process feel less stressful and was a breath of fresh air for a first time home buyer. I would absolutely use her services again if I were to buy another home and would recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable agent that will work hard for them and make the process much less stressful.

Michelle was very knowledgeable when it came to using the VA loan to help us purchase. She didn't make us feel pressured to close on a home and took us around to see a variety of options. Ultimately Michelle found us are dream home and we couldn't have done it without her.

Tina Ortega
Paradise, CA - Mar 26, 2025

Absolutely loved working with Michelle, she went above and beyond for us. She drove on multiple occasions from Live Oak to Paradise with no hesitation and even when the seller was not willing to pay her full commission she made sure to let us know that she was ok with it, getting what we needed was more important to her. She is amazing!

We absolutely loved working with Michelle!

When we started this process we had heard the advice to find someone with a 'teacher's heart', someone who could guide you through the process with kindness, and patience. While also being more than happy to answer any questions you had along the way. This was Michelle. She was down to earth, very kind and friendly, and always easy to get a hold of when we had questions or listings we wanted to view.

In the current market, it felt crucial to be able to arrange viewings as soon as possible to be able to get your foot in the door with an offer on a house you love. In many ways, this was our highest priority as we could see how quickly homes / properties we were interested in were switching to pending. Michelle made this easy for us, we knew we could count on her to reach out quickly and follow up with the seller's agents to arrange the viewings.

Overall, it was fantastic working with Michelle, she was professional, timely, and kind-hearted. She helped us find our forever home and we will be recommending her to everyone we know!

Michelle was wonderful and made the home buying process pleasant. She took my concerns and needs seriously and helped through every step of the process. She is very knowledgeable in regards to VA home loan purchases and the needs of veterans. I would highly recommend Michelle for anyone that is a first time home buyer or is buying a house with a VA loan.
