“Mike and his team were outstanding to work with. They were organized, had a thorough plan, analyzed the well, priced our house accordingly, assisted with staging and had very good feedback on improvements needed to increase the curb appeal of our house pre-sale, and then worked the pipeline of buyers hard and always had good intelligence on who was viewing the house. Post offer they were highly involved in inspections and other buyer diligence to ensure that we got across the finish line successfully. We could not have been happier with the outcome and the level of involvement and expertise from Mike and his team and would absolutely work with them again and refer them to friends / family.“ - Zaid

“Mike and his team went above and beyond our expectations. We had a property that we knew would be difficult to price and to sell. We were guided every step of the way and couldn't be happier. Mike and his teams knowledge of the and their negotiation strategies were exceptional. I truly don't think we would have been able to get our property if not for their guidance. Staging advice, color choices, landscaping notes, all were greatly appreciated. We will definitely refer "The Mike Mahlstedt" team to all our friends." - Steve W.
