Mick completely exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond to make sure we found the perfect home. He was professional, friendly, and prompt. He responded very quickly to any questions or requests we had. As we walked through various homes, Mick patiently helped us decide which home was right for us. His years of experience were evident and he was knowledgable about the neighborhood and each part of Lancaster city. Ultimately, he left the final decision up to us and never pressured us one way or another. Mick kept us well-informed throughout each stage of the purchase and ensured that the entire process went smoothly. We highly recommend Mick Kalata and his expertise in the realtor world.

Mick was great to work with and made the home buying experience feel like a team effort. His demeanor is relaxed and he has a helpful attitude. Mick displays great competence and knowledgeability in his chosen field.

My wife and I moved due Lancaster due to a job transfer. We didn?t know anyone who lived in Lancaster, so we didn?t have any connections with any local real estate agents. We met Mick at an open house, and he made a strong, positive first impression. After meeting several other agents at subsequent open houses, we knew Mick was who we wanted to work with. We really appreciated how he wasn?t trying to pressure us into raising our budget or looking in specific areas of town. Instead, he asked us good questions, listened to our answers, and showed us homes that well matched what we were looking for. We were shown several homes across town, and we ended up having an accepted offer on the second house we put an offer on. It came in under budget, and it had everything we were looking for. Being first time home buyers, especially first time home buyers in a new city, we?re very grateful that Mick was consistently open and honest with us. Our home is everything we hoped it would be and more when we submitted our offer four months ago. As some of our family considers moving up to Lancaster, we already have encouraged them to use Mick as their real estate agent. Thank you, Mick, for a great first time home buyer experience!

Mick was excellent to work with! He was always transparent with me about the shape of homes we looked at, and showed in depth knowledge of what to look for when touring houses as well as the neighborhoods we were looking at. I never felt in a rush to buy a home, as he was willing to go at my pace throughout the entire process. Up until I had keys in hand and even afterwards, Mick was always prompt via phone and email with any questions or concerns I had. He helped me negotiate with the sellers in ways that made me feel more confident about the first year of home ownership. Im very glad I worked with Mick and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home.

I would recommend Mick to anyone! He did an incredible job listing and selling our home in Lancaster City. Mick is VERY organized and kept frequent communication flowing even in times where maybe not much was needed. Mick went above and beyond and ultimately we were able to find the right buyer and accepted an offer $10K above asking price, 2 days after listing our home. Cant say enough about how well he took care of us and ensured we knew exactly what to do. Incredibly personable and easy to get along with. He laid out the options and let us make our own decisions based on the facts. If you are looking for a realtor in the area, look no further. Great job Mick! Thank you for helping us sell our home and for the great experience. All the best!

Working with Mick was fantastic! He is friendly, straightforward, and knows the Lancaster real estate market really well. This was the first home we have ever sold and Mick helped us to identify and prioritize items to take care of prior to listing our house and was also very helpful as we set the list price (he came prepared to our meetings with appropriate comparable sales in our neighborhood). Mick is a great listener and identified unique characteristics of our property that he included in the listing. Through a combination of these preparations and effective marketing our house received multiple offers within days of going on the market. We highly recommend Mick to others looking to sell their home.

Mick was so easy to work with! He is incredibly knowledgeable about the local, national, and global markets. We particularly appreciated his honesty, when asked, about the houses we looked at. He was a big part of the reason why our closings went so smoothly on the sale of our starter home and the purchase of our current home. We have already recommended him to our friends and will continue to do so. We purchased the perfect house for us and sold our starter home at top price so we have Mick to thank for that!

Mick did an excellent job of guiding us through the selling process, provided a level of service above and beyond our expectation level, and helped to obtain a net profit that was higher than our original goal when we elected to list our home. I would highly recommend Mick.

I found Mick through Zillow and he was amazing. Not only was he full of good information but he also advocated for me when certain conditions of the appraisal and inspection needed to be met. All his recommendations from inspectors to contractors to mortgage people have all been top-notch. His calm and mild mannered demeaner made all the issues (none of them his fault) much easier to deal with. I highly recommend Mick to anyone looking for a home.

This is our 2nd experience buying a house with Andy & his team, and both times they went above and beyond in helping with every step of the home buying process. There is no one else in Lancaster that I would recommend more. His quick responses to all questions and phone calls were always helpful in making the correct decisions quickly.
