  • "Michele is the best realtor we've ever worked with. We refer everyone we meet who is interested in this market to her. We live in Ohio but wanted a northwest Michigan second home. Michele took us on a very well-organized, day-long trip from Charlevoix down to Muskegon looking at five lake homes along the way. We found our dream home and she never left us hanging and gave us her all to make the deal."

  • "Michele was an all-star! She worked diligently with my wife and I to help us move from Illinois and locate our home in Michigan, providing us with a tone of property recommendations, excellent assistance in understanding the purchase paperwork/other details, and worked lightning fast to help us lock in our home when we found "the one" in less than 24 hours after it went on the market. She was extremely easy to work with, helped provide us with answers or research any details we had questions with, gave us great recommendations for inspections, and made closing a breeze. We would highly recommend Michele to anyone who is lucky enough to be in her markets. Thanks Michele!!"

  • "Michele is absolutely the best realtor in all of Michigan, if not the US. She made the entire process of moving from Illinois fun and stress-free. We closed on my birthday and not only did she have a birthday card and cake for me, she also baked us chocolate chip cookies and oh my goodness, were they the best! She is the most friendly person I have ever met. She checks in on us and goes out to lunch with us. Not just our realtor, but a true friend. If you need a realtor in West Michigan, Michele is the best, she does things right, and doesn't play games like some realtors can do. Thanks for everything, Michele but most importantly, thanks for coming into our lives."

    Robert and Cyndi T.

  • "My fiance and I are first-time home owners. Michele helped us every step of the way. Not only did she make our dreams come true, she went above and beyond all our expectations. She didn't just leave us after we signed on the dotted line, she still checks in with us even months after. If you are looking for a realtor that is so much more than just a realtor, Michele Lipka is your gal!"

    Chris C and Heather C.

  • "Michele is friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable! We looked at houses while living in another state and Michele was so helpful in navigating that extra complexity. Being a native of the area, she has firsthand knowledge of the communities which is invaluable when finding the perfect home."
