Client Testimonials

We have been nothing but thrilled with having you as an agent and a friend.  You stuck with us through the disaster of Tartan and have been fantastic with our new house.  There have been many hard decisions but who to have in our corner with us was never a question. 



Kevin A.

Our time working with Michelle was a five star experience. She had such joy and energy through the entire season. She listed our home and sold us another and the process was smooth and efficient. The support she offered was ideal for our family. We would highly recommend choosing Michelle to be your realtor.



Chelsea G.

Michelle was a dream to work with. She made the process of selling our house and buying a house seem so simple. Michelle gave us some pointers to get our house ready to sell and we had multiple offers on the first day! She negotiated tons of details for us and always was there to answer questions or guide us along the way. My husband and I highly recommended her services. If you are looking for a realtor, look no further!



Karessa M.

Michelle made our home purchasing experience wonderful.  She made buying a home we thought was out of our range possible.  Without her, we would have settled for less.  She is an amazing person who values her relationships ahead of making a sale.  She helped organize a moving party for us as I was injured and couldn’t move our family at all. 

Michelle’s values make her stand out in an industry that is full of people that place their own goals far ahead of their clients.



Bryan K.

 in a business where integrity ought to be valued more than profit, Michelle is genuinely concerned with her clients best interests and not her own.  She fast, polite, and a pleasure to work with!



Dan N.

Two years ago Michelle walked through the fire with us when our purchase fell through. She was patient, compassionate and knowledgeable. Moreover she had resources to help us when things got dicey. This time she guided us through selling out home and purchasing a new build. She helped us know what to look out for when selecting options and also pick a great offer. Michelle dealt with all of our questions and supported us through the whole thing. I trust her and would recommend her to everyone

Michelle has helped us buy one home and sell another. She is a personal friend, but the reason we trust her on a repeat basis is because she is a person of integrity. Also, Michelle is a real person, who truly cares about the person sitting across from her, on a soul level. She isn’t about the bottom dollar. She is about truth and doing things the right way. You can trust her to handle your transaction as if it were her own. We are grateful to call her our realtor and our friend.

We had been casually looking for a new home for a year or so when we finally found one we loved. We reached out to Michelle and within about 48 hours she had helped us get everything in order to make an offer and list our (then) current home. It was a whirlwind process but we never felt the pressure of it all thanks to Michelle’s guidance and expertise!



Meredith A.

Michelle was very helpful when selling and buying a new house at the same time. Typically a very stressful time. Michelle’s knowledge, availability, and great attitude made this very difficult time easier to deal with. I highly recommend using Michelle as a Realtor.

rhammond1919

Michelle is a wonderful real estate agent. Buying or selling a home can be a roller coaster and my wife and I have done both with her. I was so pleased with her level of service and expertise. Do not underestimate the value of a good marketing approach. Even with tight deadlines, Michelle used her network and marketing abilities to retain multiple offers on our house for sale in time to meet the purchase deadline of the home we wanted to buy. No deal is assured until the ink is dry but I always felt that even if our first aim fell through, I wouldn’t want anyone to else to help us pursue the next one.



MichaelSederquist17

I can’t say enough about how great Michelle is!! As a first time home buyer I knew very little about the process and honestly was scared to do something wrong, but Michelle literally walked us through every step. Michelle is professional, so honest, and brings a lot of experience to the table which makes the stressful process seem so smooth. I really trusted that she had my family’s best interest in mind and was not doing anything out of personal gain. We are now in our dream home and so pleased with our buy!

We were not looking to move but when our dream home went on the market, Michelle made it happen! I am especially thankful Michelle’s relationships with other local agents as well as folks who could do repairs quickly. We had multiple above asking offers on our home we needed to sell within 48 hours! Michelle is a clear communicator who listens closely to understand what is important to her clients. Thanks Michelle!



giambellucamelissa

Our experience with Michelle was seamless and short! Because she understands our market, knows how to market, and priced the house right and fairly we sold very quickly, yet received more than we expected. She is not only very competent but very warm and personable. She truly cares!

bolanmoen

We have used Michelle in several transactions In buying and selling over the years starting in 2014. Michelle knows the style of house that you’re looking for and won’t throw a bunch of houses at you that don’t fit in your criteria.



user97107003

Michelle Van Vliet was our realtor in the listing and selling of our home. We initially were nervous for this process since it was our first time selling a house, but our first meeting with Michelle put our minds at ease. She did her research on the area to give us factual information to assist us in the decisions that had to be made and her positive attitude definitely confirmed that we chose the right realtor. Michelle is quickly responsive to communication and was always keeping us updated at each step of the process. Her honesty and kind nature definitely was much appreciated, I would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to sell or purchase a home.



Kaylaaa

Michelle helped us sell our north Turlock property. She has a wonderful way with people and knows this area very well. She is very quick to respond to questions and concerns. She also seems to have a good rapport with her fellow agents. She would certainly serve you well in your real estate needs.

mgboster5

Michelle is very knowledgeable and helpful. Michelle has been our realtor for several transactions, which all went well. She walked us through step by step, and was always only a text or call away. We were blessed to find our “forever” home thanks to her help.

alison408

Our family has used Michelle twice for our real estate needs. The first time she helped our daughter find the perfect condo to buy. Michelle had her eye on things and was able to show us the condo before it was listed and helped make a great deal. Last year we needed to downsize, so we sold and bought another house. Michelle worked hard to meet our needs, kept us informed of what was happening, and was a joy to work with.

 

user7998489

Michelle is the only reason we were able to buy our house. Our home is literally perfect for us and we thought we had no chance at this dream situation, but her extremely good skills and work ethic, combined with her relationship she had with the selling realtor made the dream a reality! She’s the best!



Bryan K.

We sold and purchased a home at the same time. Michelle made the process as smooth as possible. She was consistently honest about the difficulty of processes but optimistic about tackling any challenge. She was able to negotiate our dates on the contracts so we could move out of our old home to move in our new home without having to rent a storage.



cn2222013

She was awesome to work with. She worked very hard to get us our dream house. She kept on top of every aspect and kept us in the loop with every step of the process. We would definitely recommend Michelle to everyone we know!



user08627129

Michelle represented us in the sale of our home and the also the purchase of our new home. She gave us great pointers on getting the home ready for sale by making some minor improvements and our home sold in under 10 days for full asking price. When we found our new home she worked diligently with the sellers agent, establishing a great rapport so we were chosen over several other bidders. We highly recommend Michelle as she is hard working, knowledgeable on market trends, and most importantly HONEST (which means the most to us since we had a bad experience with past agent during the collapse in 2008). You couldn’t ask for a better agent!



tmwallenburg

Michelle was our representative in the purchase of our home in Turlock, CA. She was very helpful and professional in our transactions with the sellers. She kept us informed on the progress of our negotiations by coming to our home in the city of Denair to keep us informed. We recommend her highly to anyone who is thinking of buying or selling their home.



zuser20150921083206366

Michelle was instrumental in us obtaining our beautiful home. She was honest, knowledgeable and had the courage to tell us when we were not realistic in our expectations. Everything went very smoothly and quickly. We have the privilege of knowing her, not just as a realtor, but as a friend. She is stellar at both. She’s not a salesman. She cares about people’s hearts, as well as their homes. Definitely give Michelle a call if you are considering home ownership.



tobenbarnum

Michelle is knowledgeable, professional, available whenever I had questions, had great suggestions for selling our home and was always cheerful & willing to help. I would definitely recommend Michelle to anyone whether buying or selling your home!



Rockett77cali

Michelle made our buying experience a dream! We were buying at a time where houses were practically sold the day they went on the market. We had made a few offers only to find out that they were already sold. Michelle kept our spirits high and worked diligently to get us in to the right home. When we finally found the house of our dreams she went above and beyond to get us in! She is extremely professional and knows how to get people in to the right house, not only for their budget but for their lifestyle as well!



bloomingmama5

I can’t say enough about Michelle and her ability to walk us through the sale of our home…and we weren’t from the area or living in town yet! Michelle made us feel like buying a home was just a joint project between friends, rather than a crazy negotiating frenzy. She kept everything at ease and very accessible to us. Top notch! We’re using her again if we ever need to buy or sell another home!



user09278855

We met with several agents before deciding, immediately, that Michelle would be the best fit to sell our home, while simultaneously find and represent us in purchasing a new one. The thought overwhelmed me in the complicated market we were in. This was our second real estate transaction so we had some idea of what to expect. The first transaction, 15 years ago was fine — transactional. With Michelle it was like working with an inside friend. We were picky in what/where we were looking for and she didn’t waste our time trying to sell us on anything outside of our parameters. She got us a phenomenal price per sq ft sales price and negotiated a fantastic purchase price. We didn’t have to stress. We completely trusted Michelle and was confident in her. Her services were exceptional and she will be our realtor from here on. Michelle could be a shark in negotiations while doing it with an endearing smile. I could get a hold of her anytime. She is an expert in her field. She could explain easily, give smart recommendations and has a vast network to call on if needed to handle whatever hurdle comes up during these transactions. Michelle is one of those people who has found her purpose, managing real estate deals for her clients and thrives in it. Her focus wasn’t to close a deal, it was to represent us. So if that meant we wanted to hold firm or walk away, that’s what she did, and led the way happily. I don’t know how she did it but she sold our home, got us into escrow in the new one and closed everything in less than 30 days…. mind blown.



Ashley N.

Outstanding Realtor! Michelle was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was incredibly professional and thorough throughout the entire process of selling our home. Michelle’s reputation in the industry is well earned, she is knowledgeable, dependable and goes above and beyond for her clients. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!



Tamara N.

Michelle is an excellent realtor! She has a lot of experience in realty and has a lot of knowledge on how to handle things. She is very organized and will give her best effort to find the best home for you!



Caleb V.

Michelle is everything we wanted in an agent plus more! She listened to our needs in our home search and would fight for us when it came to negotiating with the sellers and got us the best deal possible.

If you are in the Turlock or surrounding areas, I highly suggest Michelle and you won’t be disappointed…. TRUST ME! A++++++++

David N.

Michelle was great to work with. She found us the perfect house and facilitated a 14 day close.

Brent R.

Not only is Michelle, a great realtor. She’s a great person. Thank you, Michelle



Mr. B J

Michelle is awesome and incredibly professional! She was instrumental in us closing our first home. She provided guidance and support throughout the entire process and was quick with responses to our large amount of questions throughout the home buying process. Can’t recommend her enough! Thanks again, Michelle!

Nicholas G.

Michelle was the best! She sped my purchase along and always kept me informed on any changes. She also had a ton of insights and shared her wisdom along the way. #1 person I’d recommend when buying a house!
