My wife and I were looking to make the move from the city to the suburbs to buy our first home. Neither of us are from the Chicago area, nor do we have any family in the area, so our knowledge of the suburbs was minimal. I received Mike Long’s name from a colleague who had a great experience buying a home through Mike. From day one, Mike exceeded our expectations. He was attentive to our particular wants and needs in a home, but he also helped us set our expectations. His knowledge of the schools and neighborhoods in the area was incredible as was his knowledge of the overall market. We were also very impressed with Mike’s responsiveness in answering our questions and in hi communications with the seller’s agent despite having a number of other clients at the time. Mike was very involved and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire home buying process. He made sure things got done smoothly and with minimal stress. Since closing, Mike has also proved to be a great resource for information on contractors, plumbers, painters, you name it. Our home buying experience was breeze thanks largely to Mike. He went above and beyond our expectations for a realtor, and I would certainly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Mike, thanks for everything!

Mike Long was exactly what we needed in terms of knowledge, patience, and effort. My wife and I were moving from out of state, and we were dreading the house buying process knowing so little of the area.

But Mike made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. We contacted him on very short notice to meet w/ him during our short house hunting trip to the area, and he was quick to set up a time to spend several hours with us to maximize our time to familiarize ourselves to the area and to specific properties that may meet our criteria. His knowledge of the area and the types of houses put us at ease. It was obvious that he knew the area inside and out.

When it came time to make an offer on a house, Mike again proved invaluable with his offer strategy. He made a thoughtful analysis of the relevant market with support for his conclusions. We also believe that his advocacy on our behalf with the seller's agent made a huge difference.

He was always accessible to help us out with each step of the process. And his easy-going demeanor certainly helps during a process like this.

We would definitely recommend Mike Long to anyone else looking for a reliable and thoughtful agent.

Mike did a nice job of laying our plan of attack. He then executed to perfection. He was easy to contact. He would promptly return phone calls.

Mike Long was terrific to work with! He always made time for us and was very knowledgeable about the properties and area. Moreover, Mike was diligent during a competitive purchase process, and we came out of the experience with a home we love. Even after we moved in, Mike continued to follow up with us and offer support when needed. We will definitely recommend Mike Long to others, and in fact, we already have!
