Mike knows and lives Grand Rapids. He was extremely helpful in getting us to understand the downtown area and find condos that suited our liking. I would highly recommended him as a realtor because of not only his knowledge but also he is not a hard sell.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Mike was very knowledgeable and had good advice throughout the whole process and I appreciated that as a first time home buyer he was always there to answer questions. He was very responsive and worked fast to get into showings on a tight time frame, which was important with such a competitive market.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience than the one Alissa Degeorge and the entire Smallegan team provided us. From showings to close Alissa guided us the entire way and we found our first home. The team at Smallegan gave us great service and got us through all the final steps of close. Couldn’t recommend more.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Just a solid guy. Realistically the underpinning before my wife and I hire someone is to find whether or not they're genuine. No facade, no sales tactics, just a genuine guy in your corner who doesn't portray themselves as anything they're not. Bailey helped us check one of our dream homes off our list, a fantastic lake home. Highly recommend… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

My wife and I are extremely happy with the entirety of our recent home buying experience with Jordyn. He demonstrated excellent knowledge of local markets in Western and Northern Michigan. We witnessed his dedication and hard work first hand. He was always available (day, night, weekends...etc.) with prompt responses and solid advise. We had a general idea of the type of vacation home / investment property we were looking for. He listened to us and provided options that helped to educate both of us regarding the "why's" (and why-not's) in a personal, yet professional way. His market expertise and negotiation skills really helped us make the best choice at the best price. We couldn't offer a stronger recommendation. Jordyn will always be our "go to" for any / all real estate needs moving forward!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Anna helped us purchase our dream cottage in the Yankee Springs area. She responded quickly on a Sunday afternoon and showed us the cottage on the same day! She helped us communicate back and forth with the seller's agent through the multi-step process of negotiating work that needed to be done to complete the sale. She was courteous and pleasant to work with. She responded to our questions quickly and professionally. She is relatively new to the real estate profession and is willing and eager to learn more. She went out of her way to make sure the details were completed.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Our five generation home needed to be sold. Stephanie knew the neighborhood not just real-estate but the streets, local shopping, and restaurants. She showed how the asking price for our house would fit with other houses on the market. She offered three scenarios for selling - as is, simple fixes, and small updates. From start to finish we knew what to expect even when the offers came in. Each of the 18 offers were explained and the choice was ours. The higher than asking conventional loan offer looked good. After a few weeks Stephanie saw signs that the buyer might be backing out. She had already called our second choice offer with a heads up. Indeed the first offer backed out. No time was lost for us, the week of closing was the same week as the first buyer. Stephanie is highly recommended for listing and selling your home.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
I just graduated college and needed to move into a house as soon as possible for a new job across the state. Alissa made the entire process smooth and taught me a lot about what to look for in potential homes. She was professional and always available to answer my many questions either through email, calls, and even texts. I'm genuinely thankful for her help in the negotiations with the seller since it dramatically decreased the price of the home. I originally thought buying a house would be stressful but Alissa made the process quite enjoyable! I will use her services again.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Bailey was an amazing resource during our first home buying journey! Bailey excels at being up front and critical, while also being supportive of your preferences. You will appreciate his keen and honest eye when touring homes and his amazing communication. If you want a realtor who will take time to get to know you and will find you the best home for YOU, Bailey is your guy!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Jordyn was a gift to have as my agent, I've had others that I've spoken with in the past that were pushy and didn't seem to have me in mind. He was very easy to reach and got answers promptly and stayed very flexible throughout the entire process which is very helpful for a 3rd shifter. He was able to sense when I was getting frustrated with the market and would throttle back or give inspiration to keep going. I would highly recommend him to others.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Joni was fantastic. She worked tirelessly to understand what we wanted and to find us the perfect match, even in this crazy real estate market. She was always kind, always encouraging and supportive, and maybe best of all she brought great advice and real wisdom to the table when we needed direction. We were so blessed to work with her!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
I was very fortunate to have Bailey as my realtor! A first time home buyer, I was looking for an experienced realtor with knowledge of the current housing market, reliability, and my best interests in mind, and Bailey went above and beyond all expectations I had for a realtor. He took the time to sit down and explain the entire process to me, and genuinely listened to my needs as a buyer. I felt fully informed at each step of the process as he was well organized, and was quick to respond to any questions of mine, no matter how trivial. Bailey is not only professional and competent in his role, but he is also very down-to-earth, making all communications between you and him comfortable and easy. Bailey is one of those agents that I would recommend to any friend or family member looking for an agent because I know that they will be taken care of! Smallegan’s entire team deserves high praise, as they operate like well-oiled machines, demonstrating a dedication to quality and service that is unmatched!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
When finding ourselves in a scary and sad situation losing our family home, and not knowing what we were gonna do Jordyn turned everything around for us. Jordyn worked hard and patiently with us throughout the process of selling our home and making sure we were getting the best offers, to going as far as taking us to homes himself so that way we could find the perfect home for us. Jordyn helped us find a home that accommodates all of our needs, and wants. He worked so long and so hard for us and we are forever appreciative for him. I recommend Jordyn to anyone and everyone who is in need of buying and/or selling a home. Thank you Jordyn.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

I can't say enough great things about Joni. She graciously navigated my husband and I through the home buying process. The current market is crazy, and we had heard horror stories of people searching for a home for years, putting multiple offers on homes – and still coming out empty handed. We had the complete opposite experience with Joni. For us, no time was wasted. The second home we toured, we fell in love with. Joni navigated us through the experience of drafting up a strong offer. She did all the "extra work" (that most agents don't do) of contacting the listing agent and gathering the insights in order to draft the strongest offer. In the end, all of her extra effort paid off. We didn't have the highest offer – but the strongest offer, and ultimately got the house. If it weren't for Joni going above and beyond and doing all of the "extra work" – we wouldn't have the home we do. She single handily made our home buying experience seamless and painless. I will be sending all family and friends her way!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Megan was great. Our move was from California to Michigan, so part of the process was done remotely and part of it was done face to face. This was a complex deal, but Megan handled it with remarkable ease. Megan's understanding of the local market was an essential part of our making the right purchasing decision, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. We got the right home, in the right neighborhood, at the right price. That's what we were hoping for, and that's what Megan delivered. Thanks Megan. Highly, highly recommended.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Megan was a huge help in selling our home. Her confidence, research in the market and the team approach led to selling our house quickly. By pricing our home correctly and weighing the multiple offers that came through she helped us navigate the process with minimal stress. Throughout the sale, Megan and her team kept us informed with their online platform and by phone. She was available to answer any questions we had, even when we were out of the country for business.

My husband and I just recently closed on our first home with the help of our realtor, Jim Hocking! Jim was AMAZING and I couldn't imagine working with anyone else.

We worked with Jim Hocking and he was an amazing realtor. He wasn’t just trying to sell a house, he would point out things wrong with the home and give us his opinion which I really appreciated because I felt like he was really looking out for us. I didn’t want just another person trying to make a sale, I wanted someone who actually knew what they were talking about and was looking out for our best interest. He would point out things we didn’t even notice or even give us an estimate of how much it would be to fix something. He made sure to check all the big ticket items like the furnace, water heater, and roof. He was very thorough and informative. Even when we decided on a home, he was good about recommending someone for an inspection and appraisal. We wanted to move because we had been living with my mom for a couple years and felt like it was time. We weren’t sure what we were looking for in a realtor so when Jim reached out to us through Zillow, we gave him a shot. I liked how he made time for us even if it was last minute and he tried to fit in as many showings in the amount of time we had. Working with him was a great experience and I would definitely recommend him to other people looking to buy a home.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

I accidentally ended up with Kurt Loosenort as my real estate person. I feel so lucky having him made all the difference. We were only in town for a few days house hunting and looked at a house which a bid had to be in that night. We looked at some others but I knew that was the one so he stayed up really late to get the bid in and was a master at negotiation. We got the house! He's been very helpful because we are moving from out of town and everything is hard, we can't go back and forth to do all the little things that need to be done.The thing that impressed me the most is how he really loves houses! He was fascinated in the details of every house we looked at from a architectural/structural perspective. I thought that was so cool cause it told me it's not just a job to him it is his passion.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
I cannot say enough about Kurt. We have been searching for our new home for over a year with Kurt. He kept us optimistic after we were out bid time and time again, until we finally found our dream home. Without Kurt's expert negotiation skills we would not have gotten our home. I cannot thank him enough.
Kurt was a pleasure to work with throughout our home buying process. His knowledge of local neighborhoods was very helpful, communication is key to any successful endeavor and he was on point, answering any questions we had and clarifying anything that needed it. I found Kurt through online reviews and I was not disappointed and now I'm hoping to add to his resume another satisfied customer! Highly recommended.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
I was purchasing a property in Grand Rapids from another state, Kurt was a magnificent ally! Even in this extraordinary time in the market, he was the knowledgeable and steady support I needed to find a property that works for us. His negotiating skills served us very well and I can heartily recommend him. even after the closing, Kurt's brokerage stepped up and helped me get the utilities switched over and recommendations for local services I might need. Thanks Kurt!
I was directed to Kurt through scheduling a showing on Zillow and I can say at the end of this process I could not have been luckier to have been directed to Kurt!! As a first time home buyer, my favorite thing about working with Kurt was that from the beginning he wanted the whole process to be a learning experience. Through this experience I was able to view a lot of homes that ultimately were not the right fit but allowed me to understand what was my right fit! Through it all Kurt was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and best of all just enjoying the process with absolutely no pressure on any home. I would recommend Kurt to absolutely anyone and could not be happier with the service that Kurt provided from start to finish. 5 stars isn't enough for Kurt!!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Just the best. Kurt closed the deal on a house for us by working on Saturday afternoon and evening. That’s dedication. We found him to be knowledgeable on prices, neighborhoods and construction.

Kurt researched my area thoroughly in order to determine a listing price. His sale strategies resulted in significant gain in the sale of my home. Kurt continuously informed me about the progress of showings. He made repeated efforts to guarantee there were openings for interested parties beyond the initial time parameters. Kurt was always concerned about my feelings about the sale experience as well as my opinions. He negotiated on par with others considered to be of high expertise in the lakes area. Last but not least, I feel Kurt’s personality, genuineness and warmth are tremendous assets in the real estate field. One couldn’t hope to work with a professional of higher character.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Jill is great to work with. She made the home buying process a breeze! She was very kind and very understanding. I had been very stressed out overall in the beginning of this and jill helped reassure me and helped me not be stressed. She was truly one of the most understanding and helpful person out there. I don’t know what I would have done without her there with me every step of the way, without her I wouldn’t of known what I was doing and I would have been way more stressed out over this situation than I needed to be. This process can be very fun and very easy when you have the right people around you helping you out and guiding you through the way.
