PASSION

I find helping buyers and sellers navigate the real estate process tremendously rewarding. I share my passion, excitement, and enthusiasm with my clients through every transaction.  As your real estate representative, I pride myself on my ability to negotiate strategically as well as provide a strong level of client service. These skills serve as the  foundation which builds long lasting client relationships and referrals.

EXPERIENCE

Today, with over 23 years of experience and success,  I am a Principal Broker with Hasson Company Realtors.  I represent clients throughout Portland, Lake Oswego, Tigard, Tualatin, Sherwood  Beaverton, and other fine outlying Portland communities. I bring outstanding experience along with my in-depth knowledge of the changing real estate market to every client I serve. As a relocation specialist I have gained a wealth of information regarding our current marketplace.  I have earned awards including the prestigious Diamond-Platinum Club Membership through the Portland Board of Realtors as well as being named a top producer with Hasson Company Realtors.  As a principal broker and a long time agent I have incurred a higher level of educational requirements and knowledge that has given me the tools necessary to help clients strategize as well as effectively negotiate all aspects of buying and selling process. 

PERSONAL LIFE

On a personal note, I have been married for 25 years and have wonderful family. I enjoy the mountains, local events and all that the great opportunities the Northwest has to offer.  I am passionate about raising money for both Juvenile Diabetes , Boys and Girls Club, local schools and various small organizations.  I truly believe the key to being a great realtor is not only having a satisfying career but having the ability to  give back to our communities. I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to work with you, and you can feel confident entrusting me with one of your biggest investments.

"Michelle was a referral from another family member, so we automatically figured she would be competent. But every deal has its ups and downs, and ours was no exception. We knew what we wanted, we just didn't know what house it would be. Sometimes we would get frustrated, sometimes we didn't understand. Sometimes we thought the seller was being unreasonable. Michelle was the glue that held all the pieces together. I have to admit, I was a skeptic about the value of real estate agents, but she opened our eyes as to what a good agent brings to the table. She was the deal manager. She was our expert. She was our sounding board to vent any frustrations, and she fixed them. At the end of the day, we got the best house for us, and it was largely because of Michelle."

"We worked with Michelle to help us find a home in Portland. We had a very short time line and she made herself available to look at homes as often and we needed. She was very knowledgeable about the area and listened to what we wanted in a home. Once we found our perfect home she kept the process going smoothly and kept us informed of everything. She recommended great vendors that helped facilitate the sale quickly. I would highly recommend Michelle as a Real Estate Professional."

"Our family moved from out of state, we got to know Michelle through a reference from another realtor in previous state.
We were also introduced to a realtor who toured us when we came for the job interview . However , since we decided to rent first , the "job" realtor decided not to reply to our emails or answer questions that pertained to renting altogether.
Michelle however helped kept checking on us throughout our move , helped us with the selection of neighbor hood even before we rented.
Once we were ready to buy , she again listened to what our needs were , understood them very well and zeroed in on the selected listings.We looked around for a good while she was never pushy or forcing and even on a short notice and on weekends , she would make the showings happen.
She had genuine advice , and helped us make right decisions -she advised not to buy a particular house as it had certain flaws that we thought we could live with ,it turns out she was right -that house is still on the market , more than 4 months after we bought ours.
Even after we made the offer , she would meet us at the house for inspections, walk through ,sewer inspections etc. We felt she spoke on our behalf and we were really comfortable knowing the fact that she was on our side. In the end we felt we not only found our "dream house" but also a friend for life in Michelle."

"I can't say enough good things about Michelle! She was a realtor who looked at our house while we were trying to sell it FSBO. In my follow up with Realtors who had come through, she was by far the most helpful even though there was really "nothing in it for her" other then to be helpful and promote some good will. When we finally decided that we needed to get some professional help it was a "no brainer" to give her a call. She did a great job for us and I can't recommend her highly enough. I'd give her more stars in the review if there were more to give."
