"It was only by chance I happened to speak to Michelle but after I talked with her about the properties I was attempting to sell I was very impressed with her knowledge of the market and her creativity in searching out buyers. As for getting the escrow closed, her work and concern exceeded anything I even remotely expected. She was instrumental in a meaningful way in working through the details of the escrow and getting the matter closed. I have and will continue to use her as a resource and will recommend her without equivocation. "
