I have had the pleasure of working with Michelle both as a buyer and seller. To say she goes above and beyond for her clients is an understatement. She handles every step in the process quickly, efficiently, and professionally. Anytime an unforeseen circumstance arose, she had the wheels in motion to resolve it even before I knew there was a problem. If you are searching for an either a buyers or sellers agent, you simply will not find one better than Michelle.
I first used Michelle Amen as my realtor when I sold a home in the Vollentine-Evergreen area of Memphis. Michelle walked through the house, listened to me, answered my questions, and then worked her magic. She is knowledgeable about the markets and has a great eye for the touches that made my house stand out from others. She took care of all the details, including making my house shine and pop, kept the transaction on track, and sold my house for a profit. I used her a second time when I bought my current house in High Point Terrace in Memphis. Before finding this house, we looked at a number of other properties in a variety of neighborhoods. She was patient as I rejected house after house until we found this one, which she knew intuitively was the right house for me. Again, she worked her magic, connecting me with the right people to make sure the house was sound and the right mortgage company to make a seamless transaction. Michelle Amen is top notch. You will not regret using her to make your home dreams come true.
Michele Amen is the Best Realtor! She helped us through a difficult time when our family member needed to move out of her home of 40+ years. Michele is knowledgeable in Real Estate. She was able to guide us through this process. She assisted by getting us with other experts to clear out the house, clean it, etc. most importantly she gave us guidance for the details of listing, showing, negotiations, and selling the house. Michele is the BEST negotiator! We are very grateful to her for all she did for our family in selling the house to garner us the best price possible for our family member. Thank you, thank you!!!
I leased 3313 Stonecrest Cir in Lakeland, Tn for the past year. The manager of the property, Michelle Amen, resolved all issues or concerns we had very quickly and thoroughly. We enjoyed working with Michelle and appreciated how caring and responsive she always is. I would recommend her services to any potential renters in the future.
When our family was ready to start looking for a new home a year ago, there was no question Michelle would be our first call. She knows her job. Buying a house is stressful and confusing, and I'm grateful I had someone to make that process much easier. Shes bold, direct, and gets things done. No better advocate for you finding the home you are meant for!
Michelle Amen is a hardworking & dedicated agent who helped us navigate finding the right house under crazy market conditions. She was infinitely patient in explaining the process and in showing us multiple houses, multiple times. She offered great advice and we could not be happier with the service she provided.
Michelle is an all-star. We have used her twice--once as a buyer and once as a seller. She works tirelessly for you with a personal, caring touch, and she knows the business and this market like nobody else. She makes real estate transactions, preparation, and closing as easy for you as possible. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
Michelle was more than our agent through our first home buying experience- she was our friend! Through our stress and tears, she worked tirelessly during negotiations to get us the best deal, and had a way of making the impossible possible. She went above and beyond her job description, verifying we received the best mortgage interest rate, walking us through submitting information and forms, dropping everything to show us homes we wanted to see- She was simply the best. She WAS the order in what we considered to be a very chaotic-realtor-world, and we knew we were always in great hands. Truly felt cared for, by Michelle. All while she was recovering from eye surgery, no less. THANK YOU, Michelle!
Michelle was incredible to work with. As a first-time home buyer, Michelle was able to walk us through the steps of the process and helped alleviate much of our stress. Ended up with a perfect house for us! Thanks Michelle!
Wow! Where do I start? Michelle did an AMAZING job on putting the whole deal together from start to finish. She was very easy to work with and even met the repair guys for me. I have never seen any agent that was willing to go above and beyond to help out as I work 24/7.She would always return my calls or text messages asap which meant the most to me. I would HIGHLY recommend her to any of my friends or clients.
Michelle did a wonderful job for us as we searched for a home to buy. She is a very knowledgeable real estate professional. She listened to our particular needs and showed us homes that were great fits for us. When we made an offer, we felt that her insights were extremely useful in the negotiations. She was a strong advocate for our position. Highly recommend her.

Michelle sold my daughter's Cordova house within 10 days, so when I wanted to sell my Cordova home, I knew she was the one to do it- and she did it in FOUR DAYS!!! The advice I will give you is to do EXACTLY what she says- if that includes moving furniture, painting a porch, or changing out some fixtures-JUST DO IT. She brings a professional photographer and her own personal touches into your home because she KNOWS WHAT SELLS. Both my daughter and I were happy with the selling prices Michelle got us.
Michelle is a professional and expert of the Memphis market. She had our house under contract within 10 days of listing. She made several requests for us to get our house "show ready". We were hesitant to do this at first due to extra costs but did it anyway because we trusted her judgement. After we met her requests and the home was listed, we had multiple offers the first day of showings and a contract within 10 days!!
Michelle was awesome to deal with. Listed house and had contract on it in 4 days. Super knowledgable, honest and gets the job done. If you want your house sold by someone that keeps focused on you and your property, she is the one to go with

Michelle is a realtor who will get it done. Her focus is on getting your home sold for the highest dollar in the shortest time. My condo sold in 24 days. I also had to close with in 30 days. The closing happened on the date assigned. I know Michelle was working hard behind the scene to make sure it did. I would recommend her to everyone!!

Simply the best realtor anyone could want. Very hardworking and knows what she is doing. Don't know how I could have gotten my home without her help. Even after the purchase she has been there to help me. I was a first home buyer and she lead me through everything step by step. I really appreciate everything this amazing woman did. Couldn't ask for more from her.
She gave my husband and I a unique and reassuring experience. Unique in her quirky, fun-loving manner and reassuring as it was our first time buying and she never left us feeling clueless. Michelle Amen is a fine realtor and I would (and have) recommend her to anyone I know.
Perhaps great as a selling agent, as the other reviews state. Was not on my side as a buying agent- an unpleasant experience of being pressured to buy any house immediately at asking price so that she could move along.
Michelle knows the market and is amazing at her job! We listed the home that we had owned for 20 years with her. She knew what enhancements we should make to our house--new paint, flooring, fixtures--before we put it on the market to expedite the sale and to get top dollar for our property. Michelle was right. The sale price we got more than covered the cost of the updates. She was always prompt with communication and treated the sale of our house as though she was selling her own home. I highly recommend Michelle Amen!
I want to thank Michelle Amen for going above and beyond the call of duty. Michelle was not our Realtor, but she helped us out tremendously during our move. She represents her clients well and worked well with our agent, always staying in communication with our realtor. You can tell by her reviews that she is a sought after Realtor.
Michelle represented us looking for our new home, compared to other realtors it was an eye opening experience. She tirelessly researched houses, was available at all hours, and took us through no fewer than 54 properties until she found us our perfect home. I have never experienced ANY professional work as hard as she did for us, and she has everyone you may need to complete and finance your home on call.
Michelle was extremely knowledgeable both about the overall process of buying as well as Memphis and the surrounding areas. In short, she's a one-stop shop; all you need to get everything done with minimal hassle on my end. Thanks Michelle!
Michelle was great helping us sale our house. She was very professional and informative for first time sellers. I would recommend her to anyone looking to sell their house.
After months on the market with a different realtor, we paused, found Michelle through referral, & listed. 3 short weeks later, we were signed & packing! Michelle is a go-getter. Put your faith in her model of selling & you shall have a happy return!
Michelle was really a turning point for us in a long hard journey. Our house had to go on the market due to a job relocation and we were not prepared for the current real estate environment. By the time we found her we were pretty depressed and she was the first person that gave us any indication that she cared and that she would absolutely help us sell our house. We did have to do a few things she suggested, but she didn't require a lot of updates that had been requested by others we had interviewed. The most important thing is that she was always easy to contact and she was always doing everything she could to help. She went way beyond what I consider her job description. You really have a great new friend on your side,Ron and Melissa StockstillCape Girardeau, MO
We could not be more pleased with our experience. Michelle called me upon my completion of an online form, and within 24 hours we had an appointment to view houses with her. We gave her our list of requested viewings, and she brought along several more suggestions -- one of which ended up being our chosen home. We had an offer accepted the next day, and we closed 14 days later. My husband and I are real estate newbies, and her vast knowledge was extremely helpful as we navigated the whirlwind time frame. She and her team were very responsive (even when I was getting anxious and nervous!) and they calmly answered every question. She is hilarious and kind and honest. We had planned to rent out our old home, but after working with her to find our new home we decided to list it with her instead! She was THAT good. We could not recommend Michelle more!
Michelle was a true professional. Her knowledge of the area, her expertise and skill in negotiating, and her customer service exceeded our expectations.I knew after she toured the house with us, that she would be an advocate for getting us a fair price and that she was trustworthy. Over the course of the purchase process she validated that impression.We were only in town for the weekend and needed to be certain we were making a good decision. Michelle worked with us through the process and we were able to make an offer, and start the loan process the same day.She continuously updated us on progress and status - which was important since we were not in the area.She took a personal interest in our home purchase success, but more importantly, she was incredible effective and efficient. When there were hiccups, as there always are, she kept her cool and continued to give us sound advice and move the process along.I would recommend Michelle to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home.
Michele guided my daughter through the process of buying her first house. As her mother living about 300 miles away, I couldn't be there to help a lot and I missed closing day. Michele listened to what my daughter was looking for. She never gave up and never gave in until she found the perfect house. She then worked with my daughter, a new graduate with a challenging financial background, to get her loan approved. Michele Amen was there every step of the process and went above and beyond a realtor's responsibilities. She is more than a realtor. She's a friend that you can count on to get the job done.... no matter what. She gave me peace of mind because she stepped in for me to help my daughter. Go with Michele if you want success in real estate. Beth-White House, TN.
It was very friendly, detailed introduction of many properties that were of interest for me in in different areas of Memphis, from Germantown, to downtown Memphis. Ms. Amen showed an amazing knowledge of not just each of the properties that were of interest for me, but also of entire city and region, which was as important me considering the fact that the whole area was totally new to me and it was my very first visit to Memphis area.
Her name is Amen for a reason. She worked a miracle and got me in my dream home within just a few weeks! As a first time homebuyer with very high expectations, I was sceptical at first if she could find me a home but she quickly proved me wrong with her vast knowledge and experience. She responded very quickly to all my messages and took care of everything from getting me set up with an amazing mortgage company to finding a company to clean the roof. This was the least stressful move I've ever had. I can't thank her enough. She has a customer for life!
Michelle will overwhelm you with blah blah blah and will not let you make your own decision. If you question anything she says or offers you, she will tell you that you don't know what you are talking about and that you are uneducated (Literally). She has a guy for the mortgage loans who will try to abuse you big time with his number and if you question anything, she will tell you to either take it or leave it. She wants you to buy the house in a record time so she can make money and forget you if you did not have enough time to think about the house or the contract deal. You are in the house, you are paying a premium and she already made her money/commission. So if you are a first time buyer or you like to read about what you are offered and make good decisions, this is not the right agent for you.She sent me an email telling me that she is too busy to spend unproductive time. I worked with her for 1 week and went out to see houses only 1 time, we decided on one but the mortgage loan the guy gave me made no sense, so I asked questions about it, she wanted me to take it or leave it. Then when I fired her she turned nasty and started saying mean things. This agent does not care about you she only cares about making her commission and quick. Do not work with her.
Our heartfelt thanks to our agent, Michelle Amen, for sticking with us and leading us on this real estate roller coaster. We asked Michelle to help us sell our home- our first home together- so that we could move on to our aEURoeforeveraEUR? home as soon as possible. We were on a tight timeframe and we knew what we had to get out of the house in order to make it work financially. She had her work cut out for her, but Michelle and her team were up to the task! Michelle aggressively marketed our home, using her contacts and expertise to get our home in front of the right buyers. In 22 days, we had an offer. In 25 days, we had three offers. Michelle patiently worked with a less-experienced agent to ensure that we were protected as sellers and that everything was aEURoeby the book.aEUR? Although the sale to the initial buyer fell through, Michelle dug the situation out of the ditch and managed to get us back under contract with one of the original offers within a week. We closed on our home two weeks later, thanks to Michelles expert negotiations and guidance and her teams willingness to coordinate all of the details that go along with selling a home.When we got emotional- as sellers often do- Michelle listened patiently, then encouraged us to remember the bigger picture. The goal was to get our house sold and Michelle got us there. Many, many thanks.
Michelle Amen sold my house in 7 days! THAT is AWESOME! She was professional and caring. She knew the market and guided me to the right price and what to do inside and out to sell quickly. I was very pleased with Michelle and her team-the service they give you is above and beyond any realtor I have ever worked with-and I have moved seven times during my career. Call her now!
Michelle was our buyer's agent and we couldn't have had a better advocate. She was excellent at understanding our needs and providing us with options. Michelle takes time with her clients. She makes you feel you are her number one priority. I realize she is a busy agent, but she never made us feel that way.
Dear Michelle;Marcia and I want to thank you for the effort and time you have invested helping us find the house that we have been looking for. We want to stand out and express on this letter our gratitude for Medley Grinder professionalism and kindness. Since the first time we met Medley on October 19, 2013 she has been very professional, reliable, honest, patient and friendly with us. Medley deposited on us a blind trust that we do not think money can pay. We do appreciate Medleys efforts and time invested meeting with us on weekends besides having a family.We feel very lucky to have met and work with Medley. I consider myself a very straightforward and serious person who prefers to work my own way and Medley has responded to these characteristics perfectly from the beginning. We will highly recommend her in any future reference. We are very happy to have decided to work with Michelle Amen Team and Keller Williams Realty. Best regards, Borja Giralt Chavarri
Michelle absolutely went above and beyond as a real estate agent and a woman of character. My boyfriend was searching for a home in Memphis while spending a significant amount of time working remotely in California. His time in the Memphis area was limited and Michelle worked around his schedule to find him the perfect home. She allowed him to form his own opinions about the homes he visited without inserting her own; but when asked, she offered honest, informed opinions that were extremely valuable. His purchasing process was not the smoothest due to new lending regulations (and whose process is really smooth?) and Michelle made it her mission to make things happen so he could close on the home within a matter of weeks. Because he was not in the area she coordinated his move, cleaning both his old and new place, and having carpet installed in the new home. NONE of that was her responsibility but she was always kind and willing to help. When he and I arrived in Memphis late on a Thursday night to spend a weekend at the new house, we arrived to the best surprise. Michelle had ordered dinner and dessert from a local Italian restaurant and set up a candlelit dinner by the fire complete with flowers and a bottle of champagne to celebrate. I was blown away...and crying at this point. I can't say enough positive things about Michelle. Not living in the Memphis area I hate that my word doesn't spread to enough potential clients of hers and I can only hope that this review does just that. If you are looking for a real estate agent, LOOK NO FURTHER. You found her. She was truly a Godsend to my boyfriend and me and when I get to Memphis permanently I hope to be able to pay it forward by continuing cheerleading for her to all those I meet who are in the market to buy/sell. Michelle, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!- Katie
Finding and choosing a realtor is a crap shoot. At least I thought it was. Little did I know it at the time, but I rolled a lucky number 7 when Michelle Amen responded to my inquiry.Michelle has gone above and beyond for me, including supporting me after the purchase was complete! I cannot say enough how great she is, not to mention the people that support her.There were a couple of snags, some little, some big, in purchasing my house, and I can absolutely say that without Michelle the deal may not have gone through, and as a self-employed person I am not kidding. She worked a lot with a couple of bankers and finally put me in touch with the one who could do the deal.I will not hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone in the Memphis area who is looking to buy a home. Nothing I can write here can accurately communicate how awesome she is and how grateful I am to have met her.
I decided to give Michelle Amen and her team a call, because of all of the stellar reviews here on Zillow. A wonderful lady named Medley returned my call and began helping me find a home in Bartlett. She and Michelle were incredibly helpful, kind, knowledgeable, honest, genuine, professional, hilarious, and definitely on top of everything. It was the best house buying experience I have ever had. I wasn't pressured or talked into or out of anything. It was such a pleasure working with them. And if I ever need help buying or selling real estate in the Memphis area again, I will call Michelle and her team immediately.
Michelle is upbeat and positive, savvy to current market conditions. She listens well and responds appropriately to client requests. She takes good care of them and forms lasting relationships with them. She is a knowledgeable powerhouse for the client, always on the lookout for the best options, avenues, and financing for them.
Michelle is the BEST. You will not find any other real estate person out there that can do what she does. She gives 1,000% of herself, her knowledge and her experience. My search was a difficult one because I was trying to find a house that would enable me to combine two households into one. If it wasn't for Michelle, who had to take charge, tell them how to do things, use her people to get things done and keep on top of all them, I would most assuredly still be waiting to close. Things would have fallen completely apart. So, if you are looking to buy or sell the choice is simple - call Michelle!!!!!!
We needed to find an agent that could help us as we moved from out of state. I was very impressed at how knowledgeable she was with the area. She helped us find the right home in the right neighborhood because she listened to our needs. She quickly found out how much good schools and nice neighbors meant to us. She was eager to help us find the perfect house. We are very lucky we found Michelle because she worked hard for us and are very happy in our home.
Michelle contacted me as I was trying to sell my son's house FSBO. She sold it in 2 days. A year later I contacted her to sell my personal house and she sold it before it was on the market. BAM! She's our Real Estate aEURoeGo ToaEUR? Girl!
We had our first house listed with an agent who A.) brought no traffic through so therefore; B.) couldnt sell it in 6 months. We contacted Michelle who had absolutely fabulous photos made, had it SOLD in 1 day to a guy in Kuwait. She worked a lease-purchase out for us that was a win-win for both of us. We then had to sell another house and once again, she did it again. She sold it before it was listed and on the market. We love Michelle and highly recommend her!
Michelle made a difficult process much more manageable with great results. She gladly accommodated requests I made regarding a sales strategy and provided valuable and sound advice for the marketing, negotiation and ultimate sale of my home. We managed a very good price for my home and ALL parties were happy with the outcome! She sold our home in 5 days of having it on the market at more than list price!!!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for your agencys assistance in purchasing and closing on our new home in Collierville this month, were actually scheduled to move in this Friday. Donna and I sold our home in Almadale Farms last August to embark on a mission of downsizing somewhat and capitalizing on the distressed market with what we thought would be a sixty-day adventure that turned into a seven month deplorable ordeal. While I have an extremely controlling personality and believed that I was infinitely knowledgeable of the distressed real estate market and didnt require any assistance, Donna and I missed a couple of wonderful homes and we decided to look for some assistance.In late October after realizing that I wasnt the distressed sale market expert I thought and needed some help in finding that bargain home, Michelle Amen contacted via an aEURoeinternetaEUR? inquiry made to your organization and we began our journey. While its sometimes difficult for me to slow down and commend people for their extra efforts, I would like to take this opportunity to praise Michelle for her efforts and patience. Ive worked with numerous agents over the past thirty years, but none with the tenacity and drive that Michelle exhibited during our trying ordeal. I'm reasonable sure Michelle would say the experience was memorable, definitely one for the record book. At times Michelles persistence was the only thing that kept us on track when we derailed, especially when Donna and I were at different places. She should probably be a relationship counselor in her next life.We were so impressed with Michelles knowledge and overall service level, weve praised her numerous times to our friends and acquaintances for future referrals; and have entrusted her with our youngest son with the purchase of his first home. Well definitely use Michelle again in the future and will continue to refer her to friends and relatives.In summation, Michelle has not only achieved greatness in our eyes through assisting us with our home purchase, but weve also gained a good friend.
As a new homeowner in the Memphis are, I'm elated to be affiliated with KWR, and have been taken care of by your BEST realtor, Michelle Amen. I first contacted Michelle while deployed on a United State Ship in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Within a few minutes, a unique trust had been accepted by your realtor. My wife and daughter were in Japan, and had just returned after being evacuated after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami. She understood our circumstances, acknowledged our desires, and left every conversation with the same mission---Find the Taylor Family the Best Home! Let me be the last person to tell you, SHE DID! And she did it with Style! Michelle went above and beyond the call of duty to answer our questions and arrest our worries, through numerous avenues. She posted secure, invite-only videos of the house and home inspection for my wife and me to view. Anytime we had a question, day or night (and we were 14 hours ahead in Japan), she was available. We had a daily conference chats via Facebook, and Michelle performed numerous video chats with my wife via Skype.Michelle Amen expertly navigated the digital waters, and allowed our entire home purchase to be completed with over 9,000 miles between the new and old homeowners! Given truly one-of-a-kind situation, Michelle made this the best home purchase we have completed to date! THANK YOU!
Michelle Amen came highly recommended from another highly satisfied client. We took his glowing review to heart and put Michelle to the test. We have been through several ups and downs, as can sometimes be the case in selling a home. That said, Michelle kept us on target and on task. She never wavered when challenges appeared. She had a plan B for every situation and the experience to back it. And the most important thing: if you want to be successful, you need to listen to her advice. Michelle tells the truth and she knows her industry. She doesn't sugar coat but provides you the information you need to be successful, whether buying, selling or both. I can't tell you what a breath of fresh air it is to have an uber professional leading the team. And she has a team and they are awesome. I don't say this lightly and I am a critic at heart but this lady is the real-deal. You will not be disappointed. You will be able to rest, assured in the fact that you're in the best of hands. I am thrilled with our experience with Michelle Amen. Highly recommend.
