My Testimonials
Michal Porath is a highly professional, experience, and sensitive Realtor who is well organized and attentive to details.
Selling one's home is a major decision which easily translates into stress. Michal's demeanor was both reassuring and energizing for me during this process. She kept me well informed and was always positive; a true advocate for my home and myself.
She had the ability to be both respectful and responsive to my concerns and questions while sharing her advice and broadening my perspective about the local housing market. Her advice in preparing my property for sale was invaluable.
I am deeply grateful for her capable assistance in selling my home. She exceeded all my expectations! I highly recommend her to anyone contemplating selling or buying a home.

When you're trying to sell a home while buying another it almost feels like the stars have to align. Therefore, when we unexpectedly found our dream home, we needed someone with experience to offer the professional guidance necessary to sell our house quickly. Michal was incredibly responsive and efficient, and offered direct and practical suggestions for preparing our house for sale. She truly went above and beyond, and was someone we could trust and rely on as we moved through the entire selling process. I have already recommended Michal to friends who are considering a move and will continue to do so in the future.”

"Charlie and I just wanted both of you to know how much we appreciated your concierge service during the time we had our home listed with you. You certainly went above and beyond what we expected in terms of knowledge, professionalism, special service, handholding, and expert advice. If we had a problem or concern, you were always there to comfort and make something positive happen.
After moving out in February, I don't know what we would have done if you had not been there to advise, help with repairs, and keep a close eye on the house for us. We truly couldn't have managed or slept at night without your assistance.
We certainly would recommend you to anyone we know planning to sell a home. Your tag line, "Think Michal", certainly applies and we will always both think and thank Michal for all you have done for us. I'll look forward to seeing you June 2nd and so appreciate your willingness to deliver materials I was unable to take to the buyer. Your service and friendship extend way beyond the point of sale."

"Michal was tremendously helpful throughout the process of selling my home. She was honest, direct, and available, and provided frank recommendations and options for how to present my home to potential buyers. She directed me toward excellent contractors to make needed minor repairs and was a terrific advocate who secured several offers in a few weeks, including one for full asking price. I highly recommend her."

“I recommend Michal because she is both extremely competent and easy to deal with; I particularly liked getting an honest, rather than merely complimentary, evaluation of my house. She took care of many details, had good recommendations of companies to do required work, and mostly, sold my house quickly! I was very happy with all aspects of the transaction.”

“We would like to thank your team for helping us with the sale of 2509 Country Village Court, especially with the extra complexities involved (and tons of paperwork) that SIRVA Relocation had your team fill out. It was a very pleasant experience for us, with your team taking the entire responsibility for marketing and closing of the sale, since we moved out of state soon after the house was on the market. For us, it could not have been more smooth a transaction. Your team’s efforts and initiatives in keeping communication going during our move is highly appreciated.”
