EXCELLENT Based on 31 reviews Posted on Google Margaret JadallahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t say enough about Michell! She is a top notch real estate agent who puts her clients’ needs first and foremost. Michell helped my parents, who are in their mid 80s, find the perfect downsizing home. She went above and beyond assisting them with tech support etc needs kindly and patiently, and kept me (their daughter) in the loop on the opposite coast. No small feat! My parents are now selling their old home with Michell with absolute confidence in her expertise and client focus. Trust in Michell.Posted on Google Shelly SmartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michell is an outstanding realtor and a great person all around.
