"I find looking for a home a miserable process in general. However, Michaela made it as enjoyable as I think it could be. Her professionalism, friendliness, and responsiveness made her awesome to work with. I never felt pressured into doing anything i wasn't 100% comfortable with." - Mohamed
"Michaela is absolutely fantastic. After speaking with many other agents, she is definitely the one to work with. It's more than just her professional knowledge of the market, it's her personality and work ethic. She is a blast to work with, as well as just to be around; it really makes what can be a stressful process very fun. She has a positive attitude that is contagious, and really gets you excited about everything. What really did it though, is how hard she works. She really showed me that she cares, more than any other agent about her clients' satisfaction and goals, something that we didn't get from other senior (citizen) agents. She makes you feel like you're the most important client in the world, not just another transaction. She is personable, trustworthy, fun, and always available. I can't recommend Michaela enough!" - Dom
"Michaela just helped me out with a condo purchase and she was great. She was easy to talk to about the process, fun to see homes with, and knowledgeable about the various neighborhoods in the East Bay. She is always happy and smiling, even when dealing with ridiculous questions and requests. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor. She also brought me a donut at closing as a special treat!" - Eliot
"Michaela was very friendly and approachable. We bought our first property with her and she was very helpful answering all our questions and walked us through all the details and nuisances of purchasing a home. She was always quick to respond and if she did not know the answer straight away, she would find the answers for us. She showed us countless properties and when we were ready to purchase, she diligently prepared a favorable rapport with the seller's agent and got us the house." - Danni
"While looking for a suitable home, I would spend countless hours doing the Zillow shuffle and at the end of the day, I would be reminded what the phrase 'housing crisis' truly means. There are few things in this world I despise more than looking for an apartment, especially in the Bay. It shouldn't been this difficult. I needed help. I contacted Michaela and within a week, she found an unlisted studio in a cute neighborhood that is 8 blocks from Lake Merrit. The place is pretty sweet: high ceilings, wood floors, two large closets, a large bedroom, and offered at below market value. I honestly didn't think this kind of thing happened in the Bay Area housing market anymore, but with her connections in the industry, it happened to me. Michaela is easy to work with and has a deep knowledge of the housing market that goes beyond her years. I really enjoyed my time with her and I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a place to call their own. Michaela is simply the best!" - Jon
