" ★★★★★ My partner and I were first time home buyers looking for the type of house that almost everyone seems to want: a home with architectural interest but with enough room to make it our own...also a great back yard.  Within a week of working together, Michael found us the perfect spot! We told him that this was the house we wanted and he made sure that we beat out 5 other offers to win the bid!  This was the first and only offer we made on a home and Michael MADE IT HAPPEN.  Despite being a very competitive market with multiple bids, Michael was able to get us the house for under asking and negotiate an additional $25,000 in credits.  Having heard of other friends' horror stories of the competitiveness of the market, we're amazed at what he accomplished.  

In addition to all this, Michael was a great listener from the get-go. Despite being a tough negotiator on our behalf, he guided us through every step with patience and ease - explaining contracts, hiring inspectors, and connecting us with our loan officer - he made sure we were set up for a successful experience. Without hesitation I would whole-heartedly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the LA market.  We couldn't be happier.  Thanks Michael!
