Michelle and her team were extraordinary with the level of knowledge they have for short sales. I have heard several horror stories about short sales, and was extremely nervous about taking the plunge. After meeting with Michelle for the first time I felt more at ease with the process and as time went on I had every confidence that my husband and I were making the right decision for our family. The whole procedure was positive and Michelle surpassed my expectations. I would recommend Michelle and her team for any reality services, but most of all for her service that she provided for my family who needed to short sale their home for financial situations. The overall process was very professional, extremely timely, and proficient. Thank you for the excellent customer service that you provided it was greatly appreciated. I look forward to working with you again in the near future. Lisa and Nathan Struck

I would highly recommend Michelle and her team. She helped us with our Short Sale and it was very beneficial to have someone who is very experienced with short sales and has a relationship with every person or department along the way to get your house sold. She went above and beyond to work through any problems that can occur with a short sale (banks, life, etc.) and seemed to always be a few steps ahead of anything that came our way. We always believed that Michelle and her team would get our house sold and they came through. Michelle was highly recommended to us and we would highly recommend her to anyone else.

Michelle Minik's enthusiasm and determination was exactly what we needed! Michelle was extremely helpful throughout the entire process involved in selling a home amidst the insanity! Michelle ALWAYS answered her cell phone when I called or immediately called me back if she was on the phone - I never even finished leaving a voicemail! Michelle's Team helped us get in contact with the professionals we needed in law and financing and always stayed optimistic through the tedious and often aggravating process. Because of Michelle's expertise, along with her partners Joel and Tracy, we were able to negotiate a difficult 2-lien short-sale as well as find the perfect home/location for our family! I recommend Michelle to everyone I know who intends to venture into the craziness of buying and selling real estate in today's uncertain market. We will call her again.

We would definitely recommend Michelle to anyone in need of a realtor. She has knowledge about all aspects of buying a house, be it a new build, short sale or repossession. She is also knowledgeable about how things in the house work, ie a reverse osmosis system. She is very enthusiastic and wants to help you find a house you love and not just settle for something you like. She is available whenever you want to schedule a showing and answers your phone calls or emails promptly. She deserves 5 stars in every aspect of her service!!

We have dealt with several real estate agents over the years and Michelle stands head and shoulders above the rest. We requested showings of 30 houses in 1 1/2 days. She was able to accommodate us and helped us negotiate an excellent deal for our first choice in Sun City West. Since we were out-of-town buyers, she handled all of the necessary items for the sale which included attending the inspection, monitoring the loan and handling the closing and final walk-thru. If any of our friends or family need a real estate professional in this area, we would highly recommend her.

I debated on working with a realtor for many reasons, but after checking out Michelle’s web site & reading her reviews I knew I had to meet her. Words cannot describe how lucky I am to have worked with Michelle. She is absolutely, positively a great person & a phenomenal agent. Michelle shows commitment, dedication AND her No-BS attitude are qualities I never expected to find in a realtor! She made it happen for me and I was so pleased with her attitude and dedication that I recommended her to my family, friends, and continue to give her name to anyone I know that might be looking to buy. I can honestly say Michelle will work hard for you and truly do everything possible to make your deal work!

I am an out of state real estate investor and needed to sell my property quickly. After some research on zillow and other sites I decided to choose Michelle. I took a chance on her just looking at reviews etc.. I am pleased to say I made the right choice using her as my realtor to sell my property. She was a pleasure to work with and always kept me updated on the details of the transaction. Michelle had a lot of pieces to bring together in my transaction since I had a 4 year lease with tenants in the property. She not only sold the home in less than a month but got one of the highest prices in the neighborhood. I would definitely recommend Michelle to anybody buying or selling real estate in Arizona.

We had a great, professional exprerience have Michelle as our agent. This was our fifth time in buy and selling a home and one of the more complex transaction, for us, that we have gone into. Michelle Minik made it seem very simple and easy as we went though the proccess. We have had many agent in the past, some we good and some were not so good, a couple were terrible. What stand out about Michelle is that you can tell she in injoy's what is is doing, she alway and I mean always returns your calls, very professional and prompt in the way her handles the situations as they arise,Michelle has great knowledge and experience in the real estate industry. Michelle is the first real estate I have seen accompanied with a very strong and serious team backing her, Michelle is a one stop shopping agent, everthing you may need she has the resources for. I strongly recommend Michelle for ALL your real estate needs and if we ever need services again, her will be our first call. Michelle thank you again for what you had done for our family and may god bless you and your family and team. Sergio & Martha E. Ponce

Michelle and her husband were awesome! I had seconds thoughts about going through with the shortsell procedure. When i sat down and talked with Michelle, she left my home with me feeling confindent in that i was making the right decision. Once the process began it was pretty painless. With in a day of my home going on the market Michelle had a buyer. Unfortunately this deal fell through. With in hours of my home going back on the market, another offer was made and within 2 months my home was sold. Michelle works with a team of experts that kept me updated via telephone and email almost weekly. Michelle and her husband also stayed in touch and kept me updated. Talking to Michelle in person or on the phone was like talking to a friend. She and here husband are personable, motivated and will bend over backwards to help you get your home sold. I have recommended her to my friends and strongly recommend her to anyone thinking about selling or shortselling there home. I will definitely be using Michelle in the future when im ready to buy another house.

Michelle is the ideal Agent to work with...not only is she honest and down to earth, but she knows her subject very well. She is expert in helping you locate up to date listings, especially new listings that pop up on the market. This helps you be first in line to not only view properties, but also submit offers. Michelle is very sincere about wanting to help her clients. She not only helped me find new listings, but also sold the house we lived in, which took some expert negotiating, as it was a short-sale. She makes you feel like you've known her for years, and still want to get to know her even better. Michelle is very approachable, and returns calls/messages promptly. If you want a top notch realtor you can TRUST, and who WORKS HARD to get things done, then she is the one for you! Again, in today's market, it is crucial to be at the forefront of current trends in real estate, so you can present a solid offer, be taken seriously by sellers, and get moved in or moved out without any problems. You will surely enjoy the expert advice she can deliver. Sincerely, Katrin Taylor

We prayed for God to send us someone who would truly care about our needs and knew what we really wanted in a home. We wanted a home that catered to our family, finances, and employment. Michelle was that answer. She made the whole process painless and worry free! She took the stress and anxiety of buying a home completely away. Michelle is honestly the best at what she does! We are now in our new home and loving it, just as she said we would! Thanks Michelle!

If you think that looking and trying to buy a home in AZ when you're living in CT is a day at the beach, then think again! It is tremendously stressful! Thankfully one day a good friend of mine recommended Michelle and let's just say from there on it was like a day at the beach! Michelle made the entire process stress free. We immediately reached out to her via social media, then we started informally communicating, then we did a formal chat via Skype or FaceTime, told her what we were looking for and then began our journey. After that first face to face encounter with her, we immediately felt that we could trust her and there wasn’t any misgivings. We immediately started getting prospective houses sent to us to view and narrow our search while at the same time we focused on selling our home in CT. During this process of sending us homes to look at, Michelle was always in contact with us, not just to find out if we're liking the choices she's sending but just to touch base to see how we were going. There were times that I called or texted Michelle at all different hours throughout the day, on any given day, and she immediately answered and remember there's a three hour difference between CT and AZ. Never once did she leave me hanging! I even called her to ask about aspects of selling our home in CT even though we had a different agent for that and she didn't once say, Well, I can't given you advice about that because it's a conflict of interest! No! She gave me the advice anyway without any reluctance to do so. When it came time for us to travel to AZ to finally look at the properties that we narrowed, Michelle was always there with us. One thing about her is that she isn't pushy so we still had our space while we were visiting in AZ. During that week while we were there, she was patient, she welcomed us into her home, showed us the area the houses, and introduced us to her wonderful family! She made us feel like we were a part of her family and even after the purchase of our home, she continues to do that. She doesn't drop you after you've moved in...no...it's like you've made a friend for life. During the home buying process in AZ, despite some up's and down's or misgivings that one of us went through, Michelle did her very best to be attentive and caring, trying to carefully examine why we were feeling that way, and counseled us in such a way that everyone felt cool, calm, and collected after. She's like that, analytical and driven and her passion for this career in real estate is so evident and so strong, you'd think that this was what she was born to do! You cannot go wrong from choosing Michelle. She will take care of you and put your needs first and foremost above all. There’s not enough adjectives to describe Michelle but in our book, she is truly a wonderful and special human being. We thank God that He put her in our path as we do not believe that our experience in coming to AZ and buying a home here would’ve been this excellent and phenomenal!

I happen to live overseas, and recently decided to sell a property in Arizona, so I decided to look on Zillow for an agent with good reviews. As a result, Michelle's profile came to my attention, and I decided to give her an opportunity to represent me. As it turns out, I'm very pleased. She was true to her word, took action when she said she would, and was very proactive. I also felt that she was direct and honest with me, not sugarcoating anything, traits that I value very much in a business relationship. I ended up receiving a significantly higher price than I expected, which only made the process that much better. Except for the notarized signing of the deed, all the documentation was handled with email. Considering that I have never met Michelle or husband/teammate Joel in person, I couldn't have asked for a more painless experience. I would definitely ask her to represent me again if and when another real estate transaction is in the cards. Thanks, guys!

We came from another state for the weekend to look at homes. Charles met our every request in such a short time period ( 2 days ) and was very helpful through the closing section as we found a home. He worked well with our family members, as we had left on the 3rd day and they helped finish this process. He kept in contact with us throughout the process and was continually available.

Having grown tired of agents that want to be quick on a sale, but short on time to find the home that meets my needs, it was a pleasure to meet Michelle and Joel Minik. Having seen the excellent reviews left by others, I contacted Michelle to get a better understanding of the southwest valley area having currently lived in the northeast area for over a decade. Michelle recommended that I give the area a look as it met all the criteria I had described that I was looking for (schools, family, shopping, community, forward thinking in growth). Throughout the entire process Michelle & Joel Minik have been both very professional and trustworthy, but with a very personable and friendly approach. Communication has been outstanding, and I'm pretty sure that they both have a clone as they seem to be everywhere and in complete access- at all times:) And this applies to everyone in the closing process. A process that I felt certain was going to be long and drawn out, took a fraction of the time- no guessing games. So now we are happily moving to the Estrella community and I would like to thank Michelle and Joel for going above and beyond to make the whole process so enjoyable!

Michelle knows the valley's real estate market like the back of her hand. She was very astute in matching our wants and needs with a community that's a perfect fit for our life style. She gets the job done and follows up with clients even after closing. We bought in a new home community, and with her help, we got better service after closing, than hassling with the builder on our own. She is a true professional.

Buying a home can be a frightening and overwhelming ordeal!. Not so with Michelle and Joel Minik at Team Minik. We had been looking for a home in the west valley of Phoenix, and at times were very frustrated at the entire process, as we bid on several homes and our bids fell short. Michelle was very understanding and completely professional during the whole process and she gave us very good idea of where our bid should be depending on the home's value. We purchased a 'Short Sale' home and Michelle and Joel were eager to take every phone call, answer every question immediately and keep us very informed of each step along the way. Without Michelle and Joel we may have given up on buying a home altogether. Thank goodness they were there. I would highly recommend Michelle and her team to anyone who wants a knowledgeable, professional, helpful and assertive Realtor.

My husband and I used Michelle Minik to sell our home and purchase another. From start to finish the whole process took 6 weeks! We LOVE our new home! I know we wouldn't have found our dream home without Michelle's expertise! When it came to selling our house, Michelle knew exactly what she was doing. We received our full asking price after only four days on the market! In terms of communication Michelle was amazing! When I first contacted her, she responded immediately even though she was on vacation! She is extremely knowledgeable and personable. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Michelle makes herself comfortable in a confident manner right away, in the door, on the first visit. She is prepared and determined to make the sale work smoothly from start to finish. Michelle is a powerful force when it comes to being ahead of the process, anticipating and meeting the needs of the day throughout the sale. As her client, we felt as though we received personalized service, and were her priority. You can count on receiving the same levels of Michelle's personal and professional attention to your real estate transactions.

Michelle Minik was very eager and aggressive from the beginning. When we first met she had done her homework for all things needed in selling our home and she was prepared on how and when would be the best time to sell. She was always positive and encouraging. I could get ahold of her at any time, including nights and weekends. Michelle was honest when it came to offers and always kept us informed. She forwarded emails from and all correspondence from other realtors regarding our property. I never felt in the dark. I would highly recommened Michelle Minik as a realtor!

We contacted Michelle after meeting with a couple other realtors in the area. We had narrowed our search to a couple homes and we were searching for the right person to help us with the home buying process. We contacted Michelle on short notice with a request to view a home within 24 hours. She answered her phone and scheduled an appointment for the next day. She sounded very knowledgeable and motivated. We met with her and instantly knew she was the right person to guide us. Michelle was very professional and confident in her work. Throughout the entire process she was always just a phone call, email or text message away. She kept us informed and gave us constant updates. Juggling work and a baby, Michelle made every step of the process convenient. We would definitely recommend her to anyone searching for a home in the west valley.

Michelle was excellent from the initial contact. She phoned me immediately and always returned my calls. Being an out of state owner, I relied heavily on her to handle everything.

Michelle is very talented real estate professional who is very structured with a thorough understanding of the real estate selling process. Michelle had answers to all our questions and was able to successfully avoid unexpected issues that could have been detrimental to selling the property. Michelle provided excellent oversight to the process and was supportive of working directly with her team. This empowerment is reflected in the quality support she has in place to make sure the process is seamless and executed in a timely manner. Michelle was open and honest with her recommendations and availed her time to communicate with us as required. I would recommend Michelle to anyone who is interested in selling their property and working with a highly qualified and efficient agent. I am very grateful we had an opportunity to work with Michelle and her team.

Michelle Minik is an outstanding real estate professional and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home! She asked pertinent questions, listened to our responses and from there was able to help us find the right home. Being a newcomer to the state of Arizona, Michelle made our life super easy. Her expertise and knowledge of the region helped us to secure a new home that met our specifications in less than a week. We were extremely impressed with Michelle's response time during the entire real estate transaction. Plus, any additional assistance we needed for financing, inspections and contractors, she was able to recommend top quality businesses. We prayed after moving to Arizona that we would find a realtor that would care about us and help make our home search easy. Well our prayers were answered, and Michelle and her team worked their magic! Kudos to the team! Michelle treated us with respect and made us feel like we were her family. If you want a realtor who will work hard for you, then Michelle of Team Minik is the person that you will need. She is the best!!!

I had the pleasure of having Michelle sell my Aunt’s house in Peoria. I was selling the house for my Aunt as her power of attorney. Since I live in New York and was selling a house in Arizona I expected that timely communication might be difficult. From the day that I first contacted Michelle to the day of the recording of the sale, her communication wasn't just timely, it was immediate and continuous! Michelle held my hand the entire way. She kept in constant contact with me, my Aunt and her aide. She helped us find people to do some minor repairs and some cleaning. With Michelle’s help we were able to sell the house quickly and for a good price. Michelle was truly a blessing and certainly exceeded my expectations. If you’re in need of an agent stop looking and contact Michelle. She’s the one you want. Trust me. I would unequivocally recommend Michelle to anyone.

Michelle Minik and her husband Joel are an awesome team. They worked with my wife and I to find the home that we were looking for in the Goodyear,AZ area. We are from the Chicago IL vicinity and we were both working at the time but nearing retirement and had to do most of this via phone conversations,emails and pictures off the internet or pictures that Michelle would personally take and email us.A little scary for a consevative couple like us. Michelle and Joel were always there for us. Always quick and honest responses to our questions and concerns. They made us feel comfortable and confident through the whole process from start to finish. Even after the closing they made it clear to us that they are there for us after the sale as well as before the sale and we really appreciate that. We are so glad that we chose Michelle to work with us and we highly recommend the Minik Team. They are a pleasant and talented team to work with and we have enjoyed the experience. All we can say is that they are the best.

I live out-of-state and wanted to purchase a home for my Mom in the Goodyear area. Unfortunately, we started our search as the market began to pick up. We spoke with 2 different realtors that told us it was next to impossible to find something in our price range. Investors were snapping up the properties sight unseen with cash offers. The realtors were unwilling to work with us because they said it would take about 20 offers to be successful and they weren't interested in taking that on. Then we had the good fortune to meet Michelle. She confirmed the market conditions, but has a can-do attitude and was up for the challenge. Within a week, we found something we liked and made a successful offer. The offer was competitive so as to beat out a cash offer, yet it held up on appraisal value. Michelle and Joel kept me and my Mom in the loop through the entire process. Everything happened on time and our questions were addressed promptly. I have no doubt that had we not enlisted Michelle's expertise, we would still be house hunting. I would not hesitate to recommend Michelle to my family and friends.

I will start by saying thank you to Michelle Minik...My recent short sale purchase was anything but simple and she managed to not only negotiate the deal of the century but over come every hurdle that was in our way. Michelle listened to our needs and found the perfect home for my family. Being a short sale, my emotions were on a roller coaster ride but Michelle's upbeat, positive personality kept me optimist. Even with the curve balls the seller's bank threw, Michelle didn't flinch. She is truly the superwoman of real estate. Her husband and business partner, Joel Mink, was equally amazing. This power team kept us informed and educated throughout the entire process. After quite a journey, we closed on our first home February 14th...We love our new home and we have her to thank!

Anyone who can make a home buying a fun experiance and teach you at the same time the process and the ins and outs, has to be top notch. My experience with Michelle was absolutely wonderful, having to look for a home for almost month and half i was ready to call it quits until August. But Michelle would have none of it, she called every week to schedule Saturday home viewings. Hey, how can i say no to someone that is more enthusiastic about me buying a home then i was? If you ever had doubts about buying a home, or didn't know what it takes, i encourage you to get with team Minik. Yeah, no joke she actually calls it 'team Minik', and you actually feel like you are part of the team. Bottom line is, she's like a house hunting, house viewing chiwawa on steroids. You will love house hunting with her, and learn something in the process. Good luck everyone!!!

I highly recommend Michelle and her staff. I, unfortunately, hired another agent before Michelle. That agent had the listing for 4 months without any activity. Within 30 days of hiring Michelle, I had two good offers and we closed within 50 days of hiring Michelle. She was honest, straightforward, and genuinely understood my needs and wants. Most importantly, she was down to earth and told me like it was without holding back. Sometimes the truth is hard to heard but she made it very palatable. I truly believe that because of Michelle's expertise, I got the BEST price I could for my property. Who could ask for anything more???

Michelle Minik has a great philosophy towards her clients, she keeps it simple and straightforward. First, she explains her role as the real estate agent and what to expect from her involvement. Second, she describes in a positive way the process of buying or selling a home, including the frustrations likely to be encountered along the way. Third, she tries to learn from the client everything about their search criteria, for example , taste in homes, preferred locations, proximity to schools and shopping. This may require more than one meeting, but is a key element in creating a relationship based on truthfulness and trust. Additionally, she keeps herself up to date of the trends and developments that occur in the industry and in her geographic area. I truly believe Michelle to be a great asset if looking to buy or sell a home.

I want people to take full advantage of Michelle's abilities and understanding of the Phoenix area's West Valley, namely Goodyear, Avondale and Peoria. This is a very talented and young real estate agent whose exceptionally well versed in the area she farms. however, she's not afraid to admit something she's not certain about or unfamiliar [that's the part that I respect most]. Unlike so many quote-on-quote real estate agents, Michelle will readily admit she may not know the EXACT answer, but she will hustle and go get the answer. Best of all, she looks out for her clients, willing to battle for your best interests. Last, and for me one of her most valuable attributes, she communicates and gets back to you QUICKLY!. I've purchased two properties with Michelle as my agent and both have been executed without flaw. Meanwhile, 3 other properties of mine whereby others have been involved have all encountered some type of glitch or hiccup, that's not the case with the transactions I've executed with Michelle. I respect her and I believe she's a an exceptional real estate talent that will only become better and better. If you're considering an agent, I think you'll miss the boat if Michelle isn't your choice.

Michelle and her team are AWESOME!!!!!!!!! I was working with a different realtor and company for months and was getting nowhere. Put in several offers and never once did our bid get considered. The realtor I was using at the time had no knowledge of the west valley and was like pulling teeth trying to get her to meet with us to view homes. A friend of mine recommended Michelle so I gave it a try. Complete night and day difference!!!! From the first conversation she made me feel so much better and actually explained a lot of issues and questions we had. She kept her word on everything she told us. We found a home that we fell in love with and Michelle met us there within 30 minutes.She got ahold of the agent and went to work for us.Within the hour she had our offer in.Come to find out there were numerous offers for this property and she kept in contact and explained everything step by step to us.After a few days our offer was accepted and could not have been happier. Michelle even saved us on closing costs and had seller pay partial. Michelle and her team closed and had us moved in our new home within 3 weeks!!! She even has all the right contacts for A/C,Handy men Etc. If we ever buy another home again without a doubt we will be using Michelle Minik and her team!!!!!! Could not be happier.

To say Michelle and Joel are great would be an understatement! Michelle and Joel were our sixth realtors in 4 months. We were outbid on 2 previous homes and when the Avondale home came up for sale I immediately contacted my previous realtors. I wanted them to go check it out since we live in SD and could not be there. But after 2 nonchalant emails and no return call I decided to call the agent that my sister had given me the number too and that was Michelle! I called at 11:30 - she answered - hallelujah! By 3 pm she was in the house taking pictures (99 of them to be exact!) and by 4:30 we put in a bid and our offer was accepted by 9 am the next morning! It was a short sale and I did as much research as I could on these types of transactions. The process was long over 5 months, but the Minik Team kept us informed with weekly email updates and phone calls. I have to say I am a type 'A' person that leaves no stone unturned and asks loads of questions. There was never a time that Joel or Michelle did not have time for my husband or me and was always able to answer our questions and calm us down well ok mostly me:) And most importantly they were always professional and provided us with true customer service. Even after the sale they provided us with everything we would need including contact information to help us establish our second home. The Minik Team doesn't work for themselves...they work for YOU! I know that sounds so cliche but it is true. In a world with great skepticism and untrust, it is nice to know there are still genuine people out there willing to be in your corner. And best of all we have made great new friends that will experience many wonderful memories together in the future. Thank you Joel and Michelle from the bottom of our hearts for helping us make our dream come true:)! Troy & Gidget Milton
