Michael did a wonderful job working with us to prepare our family home for the sale — managing multiple subcontractors and time tables; dealings with the town; and meeting our goals for timeline and price point. There were some obstacles to overcome and we made it to the finish line with Michael’s help and expertise. He was very responsive and communicated pros and cons with us along the way to help us make decisions as a family. Thank you!
Michael Olear and The Olear Team went above and beyond to provide excellent service with respect to the sale of our home this past summer. The results exceeded our expectations and I highly recommend them.
We first met Michael Olear at one of his seminars on downsizing and were impressed by his knowledge and his helpful handouts. This led to getting a home appraisal and listing our home. He was very aware of taking precautions of showing our home during the covid virus. We sold our home in 2 days with an offer over the listing price. We would highly recommend Michael Olear to anyone thinking of selling their home
Michael was phenomenal helping us list and sell our Aunts house. I would recommend his expertise and professionalism if you are looking to sell and/or buy a home.
Michael helped us sell my mom's house. He came in day one with a prepared report and kept my brothers and me in the loop throughout the process even though we all loved out of town. He was also respectful of our desire to sell the house as is and in a timely manner. I loved working with him.
My parents (in their 80s and having decided to sell the only house they've ever lived in to move into a retirement community) decided to use Micheal Olear and his team following a recommendation from a number of their friends as well as the retirement home's familiarity with Michael. My brothers and I do not live in Williamsville anymore, and therefore were helping my parents remotely. Michael and his team were fantastic to work with - always available to answer our questions or those from my parents, as well as patient and professional in their interactions with my parents and us. We felt that Michael has a very good feel for the market, and ultimately my parents' house sold for a very good price within a very reasonable amount of time. We would recommend Michael Olear and his team without hesitation.
We worked with Laura throughout the whole process of buying our new home and selling the other. I had paired up with Laura about 5 years ago when I bought my first home and had a wonderful experience. Due to the positive experience I decided to give them my business for a second time and it wont be the last time either (if I ever move again). The Olear team is wonderful to work with and Laura is very personable, professional and informative on the buying/selling process. The team correlated very well with keeping things running smoothly during negotiations and paperwork. I would highly recommend any of my family, friends and those looking around to get in contact with this team.
One of the things I liked about Michael was that he kept in touch with me for over a year after I met him and before I had even selected him to be my realtor. During that time, and after I did choose him, he always answered my questions immediately. I liked his manner as well. He was always calm and unflappable, no matter what temporary obstacles arose, and everything worked out well in the end.
We worked with Michael and Lou through our whole purchase. They are like a tag team. One of them is always available for showing houses and answering questions. They are also very well-connected in the area. Whatever we need, they always give us several choices so that we can call around and compare. They also know the in-and-out about real estate. They will know how to get things done quick and right. Highly recommended if you want to have a great team to work with.
"outstanding" sums up Michael Olear as a person, realtor, and service he provides. His impressive background in real estate and community service, adds to the understanding of client's needs and needed supports. As a senior, having the challenge of selling a home and downsizing into a senior apt., I could not have chosen a better person to assist with this challenging. undertaking. All steps were thoroughly explained, and any questions, issues were addressed immediately.
