Highly recommend Mike! Mike provided a seamless and easy selling experience for the sale of our home during spring 2022. He provided several pricing and staging consultations along the way as the market changed rapidly, and he knows the ins and outs of numerous specific local neighborhoods and pricing trends. He easily handled the extra complications required due to our home sale being due to a corporate out-of-state relocation, and shielded us from any extra burden at a busy time. Due to rapid market fluctuations due to rising interest rates, timing, and fluctuating supply/demand even from one weekend to the next, it's important to hire a realtor who keeps up with the market data hour by hour. Mike will be that person for you and make you feel as if you are his only client. He handled complicated situations like fitting in numerous showings into a tight time frame, and navigating multiple offer situations. We had many excellent offers to choose from and ultimately a smooth path to closing with carefully vetted, serious buyers. He handled all communications quickly and professionally and is always available for any questions, small or big. On top of that, the photography services and marketing materials he uses are top notch.

Mike Long came as a recommendation to me and I was very happy with his service! He was always thorough, timely, quick to get back to me, knowledgable about the industry, and very helpful in general with my entire house purchasing process! I'd highly recommend him to anyone in need of a realtor!

Mike was great! He went above and beyond making sure things were done in the appropriate time frames. When my original lawyer did not respond in time he helped by to get another lawyer at the last minute so I would not run into problems later in the process. He recommended movers who were great and assisted me by getting someone to take care of my radon problem. He made good recommendations as to how to handle sale ie: setting price etc. He was great with responding to questions and communicating.

Mike was amazing. He explained how to quickly get the house presentable, he consulted on efficient expenses that could be made and he was very nice to work with. I would never dream of using anybody else.

I cannot say enough how great Mike is. My husband and I had a great experience with Mike in our home purchasing process. He was always available, kind, responsive, and very knowledgeable on the housing market -- everything you want in a broker. Not being familiar with Chicago's western suburbs, we had many questions, and Mike was able to help us with all and provide guidance. Not only Mike helped us to buy our dream home at a perfect price, but he also introduced us to great inspectors and a construction company for our home renovations. He made the entire purchasing process smooth and enjoyable for us. We totally recommend working with him!

Mike was exceptionally helpful and easy to work with as I searched for and found a home in Aurora that meets my family's particular needs. Given the challenging market conditions during these pandemic times, his amazing support, patience, and know-how were nothing less than an Atlas feat!

In 2012 our family was given the opportunity to move to the Chicagoland area through an employer. A colleague had worked with Mike for the purchase of their home in Naperville, and highly recommended him. We flew out and for three days Mike showed us home after home in several cities near company headquarters. He was well-versed in each village - talking us through the benefits of each, noting what features might work for our young family. Not finding the right fit, Mike switched gears to help us find temporary rental and negotiated a fair rent for a short-term contract. Not once did we feel pressure for making a decision on a home just to close the deal. Mike was clear - he wanted us to find our home. Fast forward - the short term rental contract lasted almost nine years - and in March 2021 we found ourselves ready to find a home. Despite being in the midst of a sellers market, and with specific needs for our family (location, price, room number), Mike helped us navigate the market landscape. He refreshed our understanding of the process, gently walking us through the complex process of home buying, answering basic questions via text and calls. He also introduced us to fantastic partners for inspection, mortgage brokering, and legal representation, who also made the process smooth. In the end, we found a home that hit all of our needs, and he was able to negotiate with the home owners for a sales price within our budget. All the while, we felt like we had a friend who had our best interest at heart. Absolutely recommend Mike.

Mike was excellent, start to finish. I have never sold a home before and he stepped me through the whole process. He nailed the asking price and the eventual selling price and even helped to find the perfect time of year to put the house on the market. I could not have asked for a better experience.

We were referred to Mike by family, and we had an amazing experience! As first time home buyers, we were clueless about everything, but Mike was thorough and patient with us- no question was a dumb question. He took us to every single house we wanted to see. He offered honest opinions and advice- something we really appreciated. He is very personable and funny. In this crazy market, its easy to get discouraged, but working with Mike was the saving grace for us! With his guidance, expertise, and many years of experience, we put our full trust in him, and we are so happy that we did. We landed a gorgeous turn-key home in a prime location. Highly recommend him to anyone!
