A home is not a home because of its room dimensions or the color of the walls. It is about how you feel when you walk through the front door. And the way you can instantly envision your life unfolding there. . . This is about more than real estate. It is about your life and your dreams. The Olsen Real Estate Group is different by design! We take a different approach to real estate, one that is built on personal touches, win-win deals and positive results. We appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.

FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Have a full time Realtor looking on your behalf daily. Homes sell quickly and it's important to see new listings right away and determine whether it's the home for you.. then go for it!
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
Price and condition. Oftentimes it's better to stay realistic with your pricing rather than going for a price that is not supported by comps. If you're priced right and your home is clean and staged you will sell quickly at a price that will excite you.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
Home Sellers; First Time Home Buyers; Move-Up Buyers; Relocation Buyers; New Construction Buyers; REO; Short Sale
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
A young couple with 2 small children purchased a new construction home from me three years ago. The husband had been working to become a firefighter and found a job in another town so they decided to move closer to his job. We found a house they loved on our first time out, made an offer that was accepted contingent to the sale of their home, and got their home sold - all in a matter of a couple of weeks. Really fun!
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I went to a couple years of college and realized I really just wanted to get into a business right away and not invest the time in a college degree. Real Estate Sales was the perfect answer. I can help people and make a great living.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
I am a CRS (Certified Residential Specialist); GRI (Graduate Realtor's Institute); and a Certified Corporate Property Specialist. As the Broker for my company I receive additional yearly education that keeps me abreast of new laws, etc., that will help me in guiding my clients.

Loved Mike and his wife Lynn. Amazing pair to work with. They sent us a suggestion after two short conversations on what were looking for and set up an afternoon to look at two houses. First one we saw we bought! Great job. Will definitely recommend to anyone buying a house and will definitely come back to him for our next house, if that ever happens!

Michael is a great realtor to work with. He is an expert in the realty arena and makes selling a house very easy. My house sold in one day and it was a very easy process. The close went smoothly and all aspects of the process was very simple.

Michael made my first time home buying process AMAZING! It can be a scary process in the beginning and Mike was there to make sure I was comfortable and confident every step of the way, answering every question and going above and beyond.
