Michelle was recommended to us by our lender. We were not disappointed!! She made buying our first home easy! We lived two hour away from where we were buying. We sent her a list, and a date we could look and then she scheduled everything for us. When we arrived in town, she sent us our itinerary for the next day. It was great having her show us the homes. ( and the back roads!!) We found the one! Michelle helped every step of the way, with the offer and the negotiations, all while answering all of our first time home buying questions. I highly recommend Michelle! Thank you so much!!
We had a unique situation with moving from out of state to the Payson area. She was always very accommodating & responsive. Very knowledgeable of the area. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a home in this area.
Proficient/excellent/Amazing/spectacular Those are just a few words to describe my experience with Michelle Hagen! Next level experience if I could give more than 5 stars I would easily without question give her more stars! Just a wow experience!
Michelle was so helpful with the purchase of our first house. She kept in constant contact with us and helped make sure that everything that needed to be done got done.
Michelle was great to work with. She was always there for us when we needed and gave us great advice. We're so happy with the home she helped us to find!
I lived out of the area and Michelles hard work made the negotiation and purchase of my home painless and simple. Her responsiveness to my needs were top notch, she was always available whenever I had questions. I would definitely recommend Michelle if you are looking to purchase a home in the area.
Michelle was very attentive and worked with us on our limited budget. Just when it looked like we were going to loose our dream home in negotiations, she lowered her commission to ensure the sale! We were very impressed with her knowledge of the area and market! GREAT experience with her.
Michelle was a pleasure to work with as a agent to buy a home always knowledgeable, professional, patient and because we live in a different city she had get computer skills for excellent electronic exchanges as for bids, agreements and contracts. She put a lot time into us and it pay off for both of us, we found the home we were looking for. Excellent job and we highly recommend Michelle Nelson.
Michelle was great help, I was selling my home from out of town needed repairs done. She would take time out of her day to drive up to my place let repair man in and go back to lock up! Thanks a million. Graciela from Payson Az
I'm very happy that I chose Michelle as my realtor. I had an unusual situation since I work night shifts and my schedule is opposite most peoples. She always took my calls even though they were sometimes late at night or very early in the morning. She quickly found me the perfect house and guided me through the process. Her network of people is amazing. Anytime I needed something, she knew just the person from the right lender to a good handy man. My whole experience with Michelle was great.
I am extremely pleased my experience. I was a first time home buyer and she was by my side for every step. She handled everything in a quick matter. She always made herself available to me and went above and beyond to make this process smooth. I could tell she is experienced and she has great knowledge of the area. There were issues with the property that I thought I would need to handle and take on the cost, but she negotiated and got the seller to repair the problem. I highly suggest that you contact Michelle for all your real estate needs.
Michelle was extremly helpful through my entire buying process. I have been shopping for my dream property for over two years now. I had a specific need to have a place that could house my home based business as well as my home, which I feel should be a quiet peaceful safe haven while still being easily accesable in town with an out of town feel. Michelle was so patient in walking me through every option from property with a new build to looking at remodeling an existing residence. She set up meetings with contractors to discuss my needs which ultimately lead to finally settling on a place that im happy to call home now. She even whent the extra step and made sure my home was clean & "move in ready" at close. I had to do nothing but bring my belongings & decorate! I would highly recomend her to anyone looking to call the Payson area home.
Michelle was fantastic! She was incredibly flexible with a challenging situation and was incredibly helpful every step of the way! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor in the Payson area.
Michelle is fantastic ... She made a complicated process super easy... I didnt know anything as a first time buyer and self employed i hit several speed bumps but she guided me every step of the way ... I couldnt be happier ??????
Michelle was always there for us when we purchased and sold homes with her. She was responsive and very easy to work with. She was available to show us properties when requested and she always had our best interest at heart.
Michelle was truly fantastic to work with throughout the home purchasing process. She allowed us the to view/inspect the property several times on our terms (accommodating our last minute dates and varied times) as we were going through the decision process. She provided us with valuable insights and information about the neighborhood we were considering as our second home, as well as, the resources of the larger community. She promptly addressed any questions we had concerning the home purchasing process (before, during and even after) Additionally, she was still as available to us after the purchase was completed, when we were looking for local resources (e.g., handyman services, pest control, garden supply, habitat for humanity, etc.) . She has even gone to the residence upon our request to receive deliveries on weekends and weekdays. If you are considering purchasing or even selling a property in the "Rim Country" of Gila County, I would highly recommend Michelle Nelson, her extensive knowledge of Real Estate, prompt and professional manner and connection within the community gave us the confidence and trust to make this distance purchase efficient, hassle-free and on time. Dr. & Mrs Mark Johannsson
Michelle was excellent to work with. She helped us negotiate the best deal possible and was patient with us the whole time even though we were fairly demanding of the seller. She also has a lot of contacts in the area that were very helpful in making the sale proceed quickly. Having worked with many agents in the past, I have to say that she is one of the best.
Michelle went above and beyond in the sale of my mother's home as I live out of state and am power of attorney for my mother. I would highly recommend Michelle for any real estate business. Sharon Hunt
When my mother-in-law's home in Payson, AZ, needed to be sold, a friend recommended Michelle Nelson. She was very knowledgeable about that market and walked us through the process of getting the home on the market and sold. The entire process took less than two months; from the initial interview to the closing of the transaction.
Michelle was always very responsive to any questions I had. She was my buyer's agent, and helped me get a better deal than I would have on my own. She knows the local area, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an agent!
Michelle helped us find our dream cabin up in Strawberry that we love! She was a pro at showing us properties with our specific requests. She is very knowledgeable of the Rim country! Our closing went very smooth in a timely manner. Dan Griffin
Michelle has been more than helpful and dependable both in helping me sell a home and purchasing a new home. I highly recommend Michelle and will definitely use her again in the future.
We *loved* working with Michelle on the purchase of our home in Payson. We presented her with a difficult situation, because we were moving to Payson from Iowa - so we needed to rely on her to be our "eyes and ears" in Payson while we weren't in town. Michelle chatted with us about our needs, and found properties that she felt would be a good match for us. She then took us through the best possibilities - on a Sunday morning, which I'm sure that not everyone would be willing to do. She gave us the feeling that our time was precious; she was friendly, yet very professional. She did her job, bringing us up-to-speed on the current market situation as we toured the homes. And she didn't waste our time by trying to up-sell us into places that were out of our range, budget wise. While we were deciding what to do, another listing came onto the market, and Michelle notified us immediately. She then took a quick tour of the house, and knew that it would suit us exactly. We weren't available for a face-to-face discussion about our offer, so Michelle walked us through our options over the phone, answered all of our questions, and coached us on the best way to make an offer that would be attractive to the sellers. She followed up promptly on the paperwork, and when we had exactly the wording we wanted, she submitted our offer, and the seller accepted it. So with one visit from Iowa, we found the perfect home - and now we're all moved in, and couldn't be happier! We respect Michelle's abilities, recommend her highly, and would trust her with our business again, if we decide to leave our dream house!
Michelle was there for us every step of the way. She was always available to meet inspectors and service people, and even went out of her way to let us see the house again (and again) to measure for furniture, choose paint and carpet, etc. And she is an amazing mediator between seller and buyer when needed! She's a sharp Realtor and knows the Payson market. I am a Zillow addict -- found my home myself and called Michelle. No regrets at all.
Michelle was great!! She quickly adapted to what I was looking for and we ended our search in 1 day! A local who his very knowledgeable about the different types of communities and settings. Her ideas lead me to the perfect cabin and location I was looking for. As far as doing her job on going through the process, she was excellent!! Every call, every step, and even helping other people do their jobs through the process was a nice breath of fresh air. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Michelle Nelson was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire home buying process. Our calls were answered immediately, questions were thoroughly researched and answered, and all was done with a smile and pleasant attitude.
We had a VA loan close in 30 days. That is unheard of! Michelle was always available and dependable and honest. I would HIGHLY recommend her services.
Michelle Nelson was the first agent we had after a few years of trying to sell our house to really take a personal interest in trying to promote our property. She followed through with most of our requests and always met us with a smile. We would definitely recommend her to our friends that are looking in the Payson area. Tom and Sandy

Michelle was fabulous from the first time we met. She responds to emails almost immediately and was always easy to get in contact with. When we found out we needed to close earlier than expected, she made things happen immediately. She quickly understood our taste and what was important to us in a home. I would give her 100 stars if I could.
We had such an amazing cabin search experience with our Realtor Michelle Nelson. She acknowledged and understood exactly what we were searching for. She was always attentive with our requests and needs through the process. We have already recommended her to others.

Michelle was the perfect agent for the sale of my property in Happy Jack. She was knowledgeable, professional and went above and beyond to ensure the transaction closed on time! If you are looking to buy or sell a home, Michelle should be your top choice.
Michelle was incredible! We were first time home buyers and she helped us every step of the way. She answered all of our questions before, during, and after our purchase. She always made herself available to us and had a great positive attitude. We got the house we wanted at a great price. :) We would recommend her to anyone!
We couldn't be more pleased with Michelle's services! Michelle was very responsive to our needs, had excellent follow through and demonstrated great professionalism, knowledge and guidance throughout our entire experience with her. We will definitely look to Michelle to assist us in any future real estate transactions and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a great agent who truly goes above and beyond to make your experience as smooth as possible.
Michelle was amazing! My husband and I were looking for our first home to purchase and at different realtors. She was so patient with us throughout the experience. We found a home that quickly went off market, and decided to keep looking. That same house came back on and we jumped on it. She was very knowledgable about the area and also about the many houses we previewed. She has been amazing to work with and i would recommend her to anyone!!! We were very impressed and are now homeowners. And she was able to negotiate so well. If you are going to go with someone, I highly suggest Michelle!!
We had a great experience with Michelle. Not only does she have a great skill set, but her personality made it fun to look for homes! She took the time to learn what we were looking for and in the end we found the perfect home for us. I would HIGHLY recommend Michelle!
Michelle is very very nice person. She has lots of knowledge and worked very hard to find a house for me and my wife. She is so easy to talk to and met with us on many occasions . She listen to what we needed and what we wanted in a house. Michelle found the perfect house for us and we are very happy.
I'm from the Valley, Michelle and I pursued two homes in the Payson area and we looked at many more. Complications kept me from getting either but her patience, understanding and professionalism exceeded my expectations. You won't be disappointed with Michelle!
Michelle Nelson represented us in selling our home. Although our home did not sell, it was in no way a reflection of Michelle's diligent efforts. She consistently went out of her way to assist us as well as convey potential buyers feedback through their agents. Her 00marketing skills are second to none. Michelle responded to calls and text messages within a few minutes every time we attempted to contact her. If anyone is looking for an honest, hard working and knowledgable agent that will make you feel as if you are her only client, Michelle Nelson is your go to agent.
Michelle sold me a piece of property ,she was very knowledgeable in the area and so easy to work with..my experience went so smooth and will use Michelle in the future.
We love Michelle; she is the BEST! I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone needing a real estate professional. Her knowledge of the area was invaluable which helped us to make the best decision. She listens, has integrity, and does what she says she's going to do. If you are looking for a high-quality agent, you should definitely call her.
It has been my pleasure to get to know and work with Michelle over the past year. She's so accommodating and responsive to requests for information, and second to none in her knowledge of the area and the market. As a Broker who resides outside of her market area, fortunately for me, she has always been willing to assist me and my clients in such a manor that the logistic problems have always been minimized or eliminated altogether. She's timely in her responses and has tremendous insights toward the successful completion of transactions. I'm big on communication throughout any real estate transaction, and she has ALWAYS responded without hesitation, and generally in a way that has been proactive to the situation. One cannot go wrong working with Michelle.
Very attentive! Was always available to answer questions. Helped me understand the paperwork and made the buying experience simple. I would definitely recommend to a friend buying or selling!
aEURc ?Michelle answered all of our questions and was quick to respond in all locations we were looking for, from Payson to Heber /Overgaard to Pinetop/Lakeside. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home or a get-away in the mountains. She does her home work ahead and really looked for what we wanted in our price range. Bruce and Carmen Williams.
We looked for a home in Payson for 14 months with another agent. Michelle found us a house when we switched to her. She knows the area well and has a lot of contacts which helped us to find the perfect house. It was the first house Michelle showed us. She listened to what we wanted and took us right to a house which fit our requirements. Great person to work with energetic, honest and always gets back to you with answers to you questions. It was a great experience.
We actually decided to switch to Michelle after having our home listed with another agent for over a year. Michelle sold our home in less than 30 days!! She marketed the home with great energy and direction which led to our buyer. I would highly recommend her.
Thank you Michelle for being so patient with my Husband and I. Moving to Payson was a big move for my family and you made it easy. You where always available for us and we appreciate you and all the time you spent to finding us our dream home. We highly recommend you and will be sure to give your number to all of our friends and family. Thanks again the Wahlburg Family.
