Testimonials

My fiance and I were first time home buyers. We didn't even know where to start. We would call other realtors and just got voicemails. A friend of mine gave me Mike's name and it changed everything. Mike is always there for us and answered all of our questions. When I had a concern and called him, low and behold he answered his phone. He worked tirelessly for us to make the home buying process tolerable for everyone involved. The home buying process was quick and efficient with no glitches. When we move into our new house, Mike will be one of the first people I will call to invite over for a meal to thank for all the hours I know he put in. If you want a house, Mike is by far the best agent you can ask for. Thanks again Mike.. Jason and Jenifer. 9/28/2009

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ MIKE OCKERT WAS OUR REALTOR ON BOTH ENDS ,THE PURCHASE AND THE SALE OF OUR PREVIOUS HOME .We couldn't have been more pleased with the service he provided. We put our home on the market during the worst part of the recession of 08-09 so there weren't many interested, but Mike just kept finding prospects and believe it or not actually had closings set 3 times that fell through before the 4th finally completed the sale. He always maintained a very professional approach to the circumstances and kept us from getting too upset that properties weren't moving. He took care of all correspondence between parties and other services such as appraisals etc. We would highly recommend Mike for any realtor services one might need . We can be reached for any questions at 719-227-1578 Kent and Dianna Tuttle

Testimonials

Yesterday, I closed on my house, my first house and that was possible because you never gave up on me. I wanted to extend my gratitude and appreciation for all your hard work, its not easy to find a agent who is willing to commit and give his costumers 200%. You took care of us and got us in the house that we wanted.

When we first met I was like any other first time buyer "big dreams and no clue" but you took us by the hand and looked after our best interest. I never felt you wanted to sell us a house but to help us find a home and for that I will be forever grateful.

Excellence should be your middle name.

Thank you so much,

Noemi Wikstrom

Testimonials

Dear Mike,

Thank you so much for everything that you have done to help make our home purchasing and out of state relocation experience a joy. Our first experience with you was through e-mails that you sent with pictures of homes in our price range and target geographic area. Once you knew when we where coming to Colorado for the house hunting trip, you called us in advance to schedule a meeting. Your Follow-up was always very attentive without being pushy.

That day we drove around to look at homes, you provided us with great information and suggestions as we looked at several homes. You guided us throught the process of making an offer and getting connected with a lender very smooth. The entire time we were under contract, you made sure we were on track each step of the way. Everyone you referred us to was extremely professional. We have loved working with Pam and Linda at WR Starkey Mortgage and the Inspection Report put together by Brick and Mortar was amazing.

Your experience and advice was very helpful throughout the entire process. We really appreciate your strong recommendation to ask the seller to have a HVAC technician clean and inspect the furnace. This inspection revealed a carbon monoxide leak that if gone undetected, could have cause our family serious illness. you also saved us from having to buy a mew furnace soon after we moved in our home!

I have to say that I was pretty impressed that the entire contract and closing process went so smoothly, expecially since we were going through it while living 1,000 miles away from it all. You Kept us informed and on track the entire time. You were continually looking out for our best interests. I'd highly recommend that anyone considering buying or selling a home to usee your as their first choice for a realtor. It has been a real pleasure working with you!

Sincerely,

Sonia & Kevin Meeter
