Homes.com Review

I used Craig on a more unique property that required a particular buyer. Before I even listed the property with him he brought the buyer and we were immediately able to close. Regardless if you are the traditional home buyer or seller, or have a more unique or investment type property, I highly recommend Craig. He has personal experience with all classes of property and knows how to be creative when it makes sense. Mark W. - CHARLEVOIX, MI Response from Craig Lively on 08/12/2016 Thank you “M” for your kind words. We will stay in touch! Craig

We stayed in the market trying to buy a home closer to town. Craig kept his eye out for us and called promptly when a new listing came up in our price range. He was always fun to work with and very patient. Phil L. HARBOR SPRINGS,MI Response from Craig Lively on 06/22/2016 Thanks for your review Phil! Always a pleasure.

Craig helped me purchase an investment property in 2013 and it was a great experience. I have maintained contact with him and he is always quick to help setup a showing if I am interested in a property. He is very knowledgeable of the area and pricing trends. I would highly recommend him. Tim B. PETOSKEY, MI Response from Craig Lively on 06/08/2016 Thank you Tim!! As always, it is my pleasure.
