Working with Michelle was an absolute game-changer in buying our first home. From the very beginning, she was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right place. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions (and nerves), but she guided us through every step with clarity and honesty. She was always quick to respond, gave thoughtful advice without ever being pushy, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. What stood out most was how much she truly cared. She took the time to understand what we wanted and making sure we felt confident in every decision. We couldnt have asked for a better experience and are so grateful for her support in helping us find our first home. Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell!
It was a pleasure to work with Michelle. She ensured everything would go smoothly. Very professional and was able to guide me through the process of home buying.
I knew Michelle and was confident in discussing selling my home with her. She did not disappoint. What was special about Michelle was her caring that this was the right time for me to sell and she guided me through the process with professionalism. Her ability to handle not only the sale but my emotional handling of selling my home of more than 35 years was exceptional. We laughed and cried together and the outcome was very successful. I highly recommend Michelle and thank her for everything!!
This was my first time buying a home and I'm so grateful I got a chance to work with someone I can trust. Michelle was amazing and so proactive with everything. Immensely happy after working with her- Ill be recommending her to everyone!
Michelle was not only a pleasure to work with but she was a complete professional. She took great care of us as we navigated the unfamiliar waters of real estate. Letting go of a home after so many years is not an easy thing to do. Michelle held our hands through the process and reminded us that the house, after the sale, will belong to someone else but the memories we built belong to us forever.
Michelle is knowledgeable, skilful and very responsive! And that resulted in the smoothest two transactions of selling my townhouse and buying a house in this challenging market! She will exceed your expectations and I highly recommend her!
Michelle is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with. Her dedication to not only selling our house but helping us find a new one made the whole processes much easier. Buying a home is frustration and scary enough, but selling at the same time is even worse. Michelle kept us grounded and assured us we were in good hands. Michelle makes you feel like family and does an amazing job of explaining everything there is to know about the process and all the potential outcomes that may happen. Her honest insight and direct feedback made making decisions that much easier. If you are looking for a realtor to give you an honest opinion and fight to make sure that not only are you getting the best deal but the right deal for you and your family, Michelle is that realtor.
In this very competitive housing market, my partner and I felt very confident that we were in the right hands with Michelle. Michelle is very knowledgeable about the housing market, patient and was quick to answer all of our questions. With all the resources and connections Michelle has she was able to help us secure a winning bid, put us in contact with inspectors to complete a quick home inspection and got us to the closing table without any issues. We would recommend Michelle and House of Hawley to anyone looking for a real estate agent.
Michelle is the absolute best. Her expertise and professionalism made the process easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend!!Over the last 15 years I have used Michelle to buy and sell property. She never disappoints.
Michelle is great. Very attentive to your needs! Loved working with her. Would recommend her in heart beat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!She is also super knowledgeable and very pleasant always !
I did a closing years ago with Michelle I know her and I recommend to anyone ,shes really honest person, professional and going to do the best for sale your property or give you advice what she may think is the best for you ...Recently I sell another house with her and was a pleasure thanks so much Michelle
Our extended family has used Michelle for both buying and selling several homes over the past 10 years. She is very responsive and low pressure. It is nice to have an agent you can trust when needed during what can be a very stressful process and you don't have to worry if she is working any other reason than what is best for you.
My husband and I had been searching for a home for several months using a larger realty firm in our area of New Jersey and after dozens of viewings (47 to be specific) and tens of unaccepted offers (21), we decided to take a break from our search out of frustration and exhaustion with the seemingly endless failed attempts.About a week after we had taken a break from searching, we stumbled into an open house hosted by Michelle and House of Hawley. We immediately had a connection with Michelle and her team. Less than a week later, we had agreed to work together. Less than two weeks after that, Michelle had helped us find our home, negotiate the contracts, and we were underway to being first time homeowners.There's something unique and special to be said between working with a large realty firm versus a small, family-owned firm. The amount of attention and personal care we received while working with Michelle and House of Hawley was indescribable. Rather than feeling pushed to make a decision and urge us to push our offering prices as high as possible to ensure their own gain, House of Hawley cared more about making sure that my husband and I found the right house to meet our expectations, budget, needs, and dreams.Also, her knowledge of the New Jersey area and local contractors, attorneys, painters, etc. to help you make your home uniquely your own is invaluable.If you're searching for a realtor who will put you, the buyer, first and truly care about your happiness and satisfaction, you will find that with Michelle Hawley-Tsay and House of Hawley.We're proud to now call her part of our family.Thank you always, Michelle.
Michelle continuously went above and beyond guiding us through the entire home buying process. She answered questions all day/night and truly made our wants and needs in a home her priority. I would recommend her to all friends and family.
Absolutely awesome! Michelle's knowledge of the greater Bloomfield Montclair area is second to none. We started the process of selling our house around October of 2019 with a goal of listing in February of 2020. What sets Michelle apart from the rest of the pack is her attention to detail as some of the advise she gave with regards to improvements that needed to be done before putting the property on the market combined with her exemplary house staging skills helped us get over 10 offers after the 1st open house. The eventual selling price was 10% above what the listing price was. I would not hesitate hiring Michelle again and I would definitely give Michele a call If you are looking to buy or sell a house in the greater Montclair /Bloomfield area. You will only get more than what you bargained for.

Michelle Hawley-Tsay's level of professionalism and knowledge surpasses any other realtor without question. She never said "No," she always tried to answer every one of our questions, no matter how small. Mrs. Hawley kept us updated always, but was not annoying (which is hard to find in this industry). We worked with Michelle for 8 months, and she was as patient and kind to us on day 1 as she was on the last. She was always on time to our [many, many] appointments. She never resorted to petty tactics while negotiating. Needless to say, we felt comfortable, and it was a little sad that we would stop working with her after she helped us [FINALLY] find our dream home. Signing on to write this review, I was not surprised that she already has all perfect reviews.
Michelle worked incredibly hard to get us the offer that was just right for our home. We had so many obstacles and concerns, as we put our home right when the pandemic started!! However, Michelle was able to navigate through so much uncertainty with incredible grace and candor. She was by our side throughout the whole process. Thank you Michelle for all of your hard work!
Easiest and most professional Agent to work with. 100% would recommend. Michelle helped me find a tenant really fast without any additional hassle. They are currently some of the best tenants I have.

Michelle was wonderful to work with and we absolutely will work with her again. She is patient and really listens to what her clients want. We never felt pressured to settle for anything less then our dream home. She was so trusting and we were confident that we made the right decision. I would highly recommend working with her and her group.
Michelle is great and very honest helping people to buy a house, she helps us a lot in the transaction we made that was very difficult for us because it was our first time buying a house and her knowledge led us to make the transaction very satisfactory. I appreciate her help a lot and I recommend her 100%. I met her a long time ago she helps my aunt to sell her house and since that time I Knew it that I can trust in her to find my home and I wasn't wrong. Thank you, Michelle.
Michelle and is a fantastic realtor. Shes very knowledgeable about the areas. She helped us find exactly what we were looking for. She is great person to work with. I would highly recommend her!
Michelle was wonderful throughout the whole experience. As a first time home buyer I was nervous, but she made the process as smooth as possible and was there for me every step of the way!
Originally was going to sell the house to a property investor. Michelle convinced me to list the house and that I could get a lot more money for it and she was right! 85,000.00 more! She hosted an open house the first weekend she listed it and Sold it that weekend. I cant say enough on how great she was during the entire process from contract to closing. Highly recommend
I would highly recommend Michelle for anyone going through this process! She was extremely knowledgable of real estate and the market and helped us get an amazing deal on a house we love. Michelle is really personable and got back to us immediately with answers to our questions even when it was late at night. She gave us great advice and helped us through every step of the process to make it as stress free as possible. I cant imagine working with any other realtor because our experience with Michelle was so amazing.
Being first time home buyers, we were a little intimidated at first. Luckily we found Michelle whom made the process much easier than we had been anticipating. Any questions we had were answered quickly and efficiently. We knew we were in the best hands, when we could just walk through a home, and Michelle was easily able to point out the pros and cons. She was always honest with us, even if it meant shed have to work a little harder to find us our forever home. We never felt at any moment, that she was just trying to make a sale. I knew she had our best interests in mind. We both are very happy with our first home and couldn't have been more pleased with the service. We thank you for the time and effort you spent with us, making our first experience as easy as it was!
Michelle is extremely knowledgeable and made us feel very safe buying our first home. Buying a home is very stressful but Michelle walked us through every step and thoroughly explained all the possible scenarios. She showed us so many listings and gave us her honest genuine opinion about each one of them and gave us all the pros and cons. No matter how many questions we asked her and how much hesitation we had, she was always there for us and answered all the questions we had. I highly recommend Michelle because having her as our real estate agent made us feel protected and valued.

Michelle really went above and beyond on this one. She worked really hard on my house purchase. She helped me negotiate a lower price for the house, even to her own detriment. She always gets back to me quickly and answers all my questions, even late at night or on weekends. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house in the Northern NJ area.
Michelle and her company have worked with my family for as long as I can remember helping us rent out our 2nd floor apartment. When it was time for me to start looking for a house she was very helpful and her automatic emails of new listings was great. Always felt like Michelle was on my side and helped me countless of times at any time of the day, even after I closed. I almost feel bad for how much of her time I took up, but she was there when I needed. She then found renters for my 2nd floor apartment within a month of it being ready. I wouldn't use anyone else.

We had a great many headaches in the moving process that were not directly related to closing on the property we purchased. Michelle was able to help us navigate through them and made a difficult situation pass relatively quickly. She also ensured that we closed on time which was essential to our decision and now we live in a great home that she helped make happen. I would highly recommend her particularly for her responsiveness and for her compulsion to make certain that everything possible is done to accommodate her client and that said client is treated fairly and their needs are addressed timely.
