Working with Mike Emerson on the sale of our house in Saugus was an enlightening and thoroughly enjoyable experience. Mike gave us the necessary information on market trends, and provided the local data which helped us price our house appropriately. His all-inclusive marketing plan ensured that we would receive maximum exposure in the real estate community. Mike's team provided professional photographs, 3D pictures with 360° views throughout, and a flyover video using a drone! Prior to all of that, he hooked us up with a stager, to ensure that the attributes of the house were properly emphasized. We cannot thank Mike enough for all of his help from the beginning of this process to the final close. If you have a property you need to sell, or are looking to buy, then give Mike a call - he will surely exceed your expectations in every regard!

-Craig Stevenson

Selling a home is a stressful event but Mike made the whole process as easy as possible. He kept us up-to-date on every aspect along the way and delivered on all promises. Mike quickly answered all of our questions, no matter how silly. We are very happy with the final sale and felt he was watching out for our best interest through the entire sale. Would recommend him without reservation.
