“We had such a wonderful experience with Michelle at Compass Realty. Michelle is a very experienced real estate professional and provided expert advice about the Seattle neighborhoods, housing options and important elements to look for. Michelle really listens to her clients and took time to understand our current needs/ wants, helped think about what we might “need/ want” in the future, and also our concerns. In such a volatile and competitive Seattle real estate market, Michelle provided frank & honest feedback when bidding strategies and offers began to get crazy and we really appreciate the input.
Michelle was with us every step of the way from the initial open houses, assistance with arranging inspection and the offer/ purchase process. Michelle was very responsive to all our request and her attention to detail when providing bids, information on city zoning and questions about properties was really helpful to the home buying experience.
Most of all, We really value Michelle’s honest input on whether a property would suit both our budget and our needs. Michelle was very invested in finding the right home for our needs and we truly appreciate her work.
We really recommend Michelle Santos when you are looking to fund a true home . Thank you Michelle!”

“Michelle has been a fabulous realtor to us over the past year and a half as we navigated an incredibly tricky housing market in search of our next home. She is a wealth of knowledge and has a ton of experience on both the buying and selling side. Michelle was so patient with us and gracious with her time. Always available to answer questions, show us properties, educate us on the complexities of the market and buying/selling process. She really spent time getting to know our family, our needs and wants, and always met us with a smile. We were beyond happy with both the home we purchased as well as the selling experience of our first home. She gave us good advice, was an incredible savvy negotiator, and always made sure we were comfortable and confident in our decision making. I would not hesitate to suggest Michelle to anyone looking for an agent in the Greater Seattle Area, whether new to the home buying experience or not.”

“We are so grateful for Michelle and her experience and expertise in the industry. She has made the experience of purchasing and selling our homes relatively easy and stress-free and is incredibly patient and attentive in all she does. Michelle is responsive and enthusiastic. She has an impeccable eye for detail and design, and has been amazing in providing guidance to us across the board. We have trusted her every step of the way and look forward to her being there to help us as we move towards purchasing our next home later this year!”

“Michelle and her team are professional, easy to work with, and made our complex situation (selling our Seattle condo after we'd moved out of the US) feel easy. We've worked with Michelle on both the buying and selling side, and in both cases she was great at answering all of our weird questions, making sure we stayed informed, and moving the process along at pace.”

“The housing market in Seattle for first time home buyers can be challenging even at the best of times. Michelle was there with us for the marathon of finding our perfect home here in the Seattle Area. She stood by us with stalwart optimism even when we were unsure the right home was going to come along. Every weekend tour we took with Michelle felt more like touring homes with a close friend. She helped make the offer and purchasing of the home run smoothly and was always there with answers to our questions throughout the process. We loved working with Michelle and strongly recomend her to anyone looking for a home around Seattle.”

“We have had the pleasure to work with Michelle Santos on multiple transactions. She always goes above and beyond to help us find the perfect investment property. Throughout the process, Michelle was attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive to our needs. She took the time to understand what I was looking for in a home and worked tirelessly to find properties that met my criteria. She was always available to answer our questions, provide advice, and guide us through every step of the home-buying process. What really sets Michelle apart, however, was her dedication to ensuring that I found the right investment property for us, rather than simply trying to make a quick sale. She was patient and understanding, and never pressured us to decide before we were ready. Overall, I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her professionalism, expertise, and commitment to her clients are truly exceptional.”

“Michelle was very patient, never rushed and very supportive and thorough. We moved from Portland OR. where house prices are much lower than the Seattle area. Our expectations were much higher than reality therefore it was very difficult to find a house which we were satisfied. Michelle helped us find a great home. Excellent real estate professional, we appreciate you very much, Michelle!”

“Phenomenal - The one word that best describes Michelle. She made the whole home selling process for a remote seller as turnkey as possible - taking every possible thing into account, and constantly being on top of the situation. Michelle's market awareness, super prompt communication, transparency, friendliness, diligence and acumen, are all top notch. We'd highly recommend Michelle to anyone considering either purchasing or selling with her, since we've done both.”

“7 years ago I bought my condo and this year I sold my condo, both with the help of Michelle and it has been an awesome and pleasant experience. Back when I knew very little of home buying, Michelle was very thorough throughout the process and investigative of the HOA documentations. She's always patient with questions and consistently keeps me updated throughout the overall home purchase/sale process. This time through my sale, I was mostly out-of-state and Michelle professionally handled pretty much the entire process without any hassle or issues. I would highly recommend her and would work with her again if given the opportunity.”

“This is the third transaction we had with Michelle in the past 5 years. We bought our first home with her and sold it 5 years later to buy our new home. We've seen her handle both the buyer's side and the seller's side. We've seen her first-hand handle clients with low budget and with larger budgets and every detail in between. She has been amazing in all these scenarios. She was patient with us and was able to handle our quirky personalities. Our experience with her has been nothing but spectacular. I am sure we'll find her wherever she is to have our future home buying/selling experience with her again.”

“Michelle has been great across the board. When viewing a place, she had great insight on what to look out for - without being intrusive. But post viewing is where Michelle's experience shines even more: she makes the offer process as simple as possible providing the guidance and explanations we needed for our first house and making us confident we did the right thing.”
