“Mike was by far the best agent I have ever worked with and I'm 73 and done this many times. Mike was very knowledgeable but never pushy. He is very gracious, well-organized, and was always punctual. He also was excellent after the sale and all his recommendations ended well. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone.”

“It's been great working with Bobbi - she is very responsive (never once missed a phone call or text), always on point but never pushy, be it her advice on pricing changes or negotiating an offer or following up on repairs. She arranged multiple open houses, brought in a steady stream of potential buyers, helped us a lot thru the whole process, made it easy for us even after we moved out of state and got our home sold just before the winter hit. Loved working with her and would definitely recommend her. ”
