ZillowVERIFIED Michelle has helped us a number of times with both purchasing and selling different properties and each time, we have felt she was the perfect person for the job. Professional, timely, knowledgeable, honest and just plain helpful whenever we needed anything. She was eager and showed that we matter as clients which we really appreciated. I don't think we could have had a better outcome each time. I'm just hoping that she is still available the next time we need a real estate agent.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle was warm and welcoming and very organized. I was only in the area for four days, so she had every property lined up for me. She was extremely knowledgeable and honest about each property. She helped me with the offer, which was accepted, and then walked me through the entire process with all the paperwork. She was always available for phone calls and/or meeting up. She also walked me through the closing process and answered all of my questions. She organized all the house, well, septic, and gas inspections, and kept me informed. She was a joy to work with and I highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle is an excellent real estate professional. She listens well, and communicates pleasantly, clearly, and quickly. Michelle sees the big picture, instead of getting bogged down by unnecessary details. Michell is the best of the many residential real estate professionals we have hired.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle made my remote sale of a property a breeze. She was always extremely helpful and proactive in getting us to the finish line in a very complecated sale. You will not be disappointed in having her on your team! (P.S. my real sales date is 04/10/2024...Zillow's form would not take it!)

ZillowVERIFIED We happened to connect with Michelle after looking at Mendocino houses on Zillow and had no idea what to expect. The first time we met in-person, she took us to five or six homes in the area in our price range and was extremely knowledgeable about both the area and the homes that were listed. Since we weren't in a rush to buy a home, we moved slowly on putting an offer in, and Michelle was patient the entire time. When we did decide to put in an offer, Michelle quickly drew up the papers and prepped us for the submission. The offer ended up getting accepted right away! From there, Michelle helped get us squared away with all of the inspections and stayed on top of communication. She absolutely went above and beyond her job responsibilities and we couldn't have been more impressed. We loved working with Michelle and highly recommend contacting her if you are ever in the market for a new home.

Review for Member: Michelle Deering
ZillowVERIFIED I'm sure that our home sale was one of the more challenging transactions Michelle has been involved in. Throughout it all, she was helpful, supportive, patient and knowledgeable. As I live in Reno, NV, and the property sold was in Ft. Bragg, CA, there were many details I was unable to address in a personal and / or timely fashion. Michelle was ALWAYS there to pick up my slack.In the end, we sold for over the asking price and the escrow closed early. I couldn't have asked for anything else.I highly recommend her to both buyers and sellers. She's professional and great to work with.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle did an excellent job helping us purchase our home in Ft Bragg, she was completely on the ball setting up showings, took us through the escrow process with great communication between the sellers, ourselves, lenders, and had very helpful referrals for support vendors. We will absolutely work with her again on any future transactions, and would recommend her to other folks without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle is a consummate real estate professional. Every step of our home-selling journey, we appreciated her no-nonsense approach. Due to COVID, we were out of town through the entire process. So we especially needed a broker we could trust since we couldn't be there in person. Knowing Michelle was on the job made us rest much easier. Most importantly, we sold our place quickly and well over asking price. We highly recommend working with Michelle!

ZillowVERIFIED Weve partnered with Michelle twice now, once to purchase a home and once to sell. Truly, there is no one better. She literally knows everything possible about the real estate business and works around the clock to advance her clients best interest. She is resourceful and a total problem solver. She is a good person - someone that is easy to connect with on a personal level and someone whose company is enjoyed. Choosing her to be your advocate and broker is a no brainer.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle was great! She found us exactly the house we were looking for. She was helpful, friendly, and prompt throughout the whole process. I highly recommend her and if we are looking to buy another house in the area she will be our first call.

Review for Member: Michelle Deering
ZillowVERIFIED In thinking about selling our house, I contacted several agents. I selected Michelle Deering because she responded immediately to our inquiry, answered all my preliminary questions and without any commitments within 24 hours examined our property, gave us a balanced assessment of the market and a realistic selling price range. She also advised on any priority changes that would make the property more sellable. In a fast-moving market she set a selling price, that resulted in multiple offers, two bidding rounds, and two equally high offers. Pest inspection and minor repairs were arranged promptly by this agent. The original selected buyer withdrew, and Ms. Deering had carefully set the second buyer as a backup. The escrow was completed in just over a month. Throughout the process she kept me informed, often several times a week and handled the paperwork by computer and mail with helpful efficiency. Ms. Deering made a complicated process understandable with results better than we expected.

ZillowVERIFIED For nine months Michelle Deering kept us apprised of the market here Fort Bragg, CA while we got our home listed and sold in the Auburn CA area. When we arrived in Fort Bragg after selling our Auburn house, Michelle knew very well exactly the home we were seeking with art studio space, and within a couple of months our perfect house came on the market and we quickly closed. We are delighted with the help and guidance Michelle provided. Gary and Jan Lord

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle represented the seller of the property we bought in Fort Bragg. This was during the COVID shut down, which made any transaction, visit or inspection rather challenging. Michelle was there to meet inspectors, be patient with the various back and forth of completing the required documents, and was kind and patient throughout the process. We are grateful for her professionalism, and good work. Highly recommended.

ZillowVERIFIED We were referred to Michelle by a local realtor here in South Lake Tahoe. Michelle made initial contact with us providing her contact information and basic information regarding properties in the Fort Bragg area. During the entire process Michelle provided prompt and accurate information and always had our best interests in mind. During the aEURoeoffer and negotiationaEUR? portions of the process we experienced several issues and delays due to the current virus situation and difficulties with the seller. Michelle would consistently follow-up on the issues and keep us informed. Michelle made the entire process stress-free and understandable. We would definitely want to work with Michelle on any future real estate transactions in the Fort Bragg area.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle Deering is exactly what you want in a realtor! Experienced, conscientious, direct, exacting, and kind. She listens, answers questions thoughtfully, takes your needs to heart, and applies her 16 years of experience to guide you through the process. Never once did we feel pressured or misled into doing something we weren't interested in, or agreeing to something we didn't understand. Honestly, buying our house was so easy! Michelle told us exactly what to expect, and by when, and that's pretty much how it all worked out. Of course, there are many things beyond the realtors control, like your lending process, but even in that, she is involved as much as she can be, and to help explain things you don't understand.When searching for a realtor in Fort Bragg, many of them had "5-10 Recent Sales", while Michelle has "45 Recent Sales". That says it all right there!Thanks Michelle! You're the BEST!Pam & Jim

ZillowVERIFIED I was interested in buying a home on the coast. I started looking at Zillow ads. I saw a house that I was interested in. With some hesitation I clicked on the realtor. Michelle contacted me in a very professional manner. I didn't buy the house I was interested in because she found one that was a much better fit. Michelle made the process very easy. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED I met Michelle thru an email inquiry about a house here on Zillow. She replied promptly and I began to work with her on my search. Her knowledge of the area is very deep, and she quickly got a sense of what I was looking for and was able to make appropriate recommendations. She also told me that some of the houses that I was interested in were not suitable for me and explained why. I came up to Fort Bragg from the SF Bay Area several times to look at houses, and Michelle always worked her schedule to fit my available time. She is five stars across the board, and I recommend her without reservation.

ZillowVERIFIED My experience with Michelle Deering while looking for, finding and purchasing my new home was excellent. Michelle listened to my needs/wants for my new home and used her knowledge of her market area to find homes for me that met my desires. I moved to Fort Bragg from the San Francisco Bay Area. Michelle was very efficient so that the time I spend in Fort Bragg area was well used. She was always prompt in returning calls and responding to emails.I could not have had a better home purchasing experience thanks to Michelle.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle is a very thoughtful, empathetic, experienced real estate agent. She guided me through the somewhat emotionally difficult sale of my father's home after he died with great patience and compassion, dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's along the way.I heartily recommend Michelle without hesitation!

Review for Member: Michelle Deering
ZillowVERIFIED Working with Michelle was a great experience. She was always available which was very important to me. She is a kind person with integrity who really understood the process and made selling my house as stress free as possible. I found her to be particularly sensitive to the emotional process of selling a home I had owned for nearly 20 years and raised my family in. Her patience in explaining the paperwork process which I found intimidating was a big plus for me. She has a calm presence, but still manages to be a firm negotiator. She is a fellow animal lover and advocate. I would highly recommend Michelle. She's the real deal.

ZillowVERIFIED We recently moved to Fort Bragg in response to a business opportunity. During the last 6 months of 2018, we kept a sharp eye on residential offerings online from out of town. I contacted Michelle Deering because it looked like she was very active and knowledgeable about the Mendocino coastal area. When a certain property appeared to suit all of our needs, I hired Michelle to be our representative for the purchase. She was very helpful with the purchase agreement, finance, inspections and an early closing.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle was amazing. She went out of her way to help us with aspects of our purchase that were outside a realtor's responsibilities. She really went the extra mile to help this purchase go smoothly and guarantee our satisfaction. Her responsiveness and local knowledge were very important, because we purchased this home for our son and did all our communications electronically from San Diego. Her insights inspired confidence from afar!

ZillowVERIFIED Before deciding to put my house on the market, I consulted 4 different realtors. I found them tentative, insecure, or simply disinterested. Ms. Deering was the only one who came prepared with the facts on the property, and with a positive outlook. This shows respect for the client, and for that I recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle was a life saver. As the executor of my Moms estate is was tasked with selling her home in Fort Bragg CA. I live in Washington state so I was expecting this experience to be pretty difficult. When I met Michelle, I immediately felt at ease. She was easy to talk to and I really felt as though she was the right one for the job. We hit many roadblocks with the property and with having to proper Trust documents to proceed with the sale. Michelle took care of it all single handedly and never for a second led me to believe any of it was a burden for her. I would recommend Michelle in a heart beat!

ZillowVERIFIED MIchelle is great. It took us a while to find the perfect house, but she hung in there with me until that perfect house turned up. She is very familiar with the area and was able to suggest many great resources for inspections and then for some fix-up on the property. I looks forward to working with Michelle again in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle helped us to find the perfect retirement property several years ago. She was able to find us a nice older house in town on a property that was ready for a second unit with plans provided by the city. We live in that newer unit that we built and we have a wonderful tenant in the original house. Because of her local knowledge, hard work and diligence, we consult with Michelle often to help us look for other property

ZillowVERIFIED Michelle has been a true pleasure to work with. I was lucky enough to connect with her through Zillow, and I feel so fortunate. She is utterly knowledgeable about the area and a complete professional in setting up appointments, following up, and drilling down to all the most miniscule details necessary to buy a house. She is very soft-spoken and gentle in her communications but that doesn't stop her from getting things done at all levels, including planning departments. Under her care, I had no need at all to "freak out" over such a big purchase, she guided me every step of the way and even after the keys were handed over, she continued to reach out with additional information and follow-up. Her lovely soul combined with her expertise made home-buying an absolute dream.
