Joseph & Elizabeth--Tuesday, July 24, 2012
"Myke and Rachel,
Elizabeth and I have been working hard to set up our new home and just put the finishing touches (for now) on the house yesterday. Now that we have some time to sit back and take a breath, I wanted to take a moment to thank you both for all of your help finding and closing on our home. Your expertise, skill, and sound advice throughout the process were invaluable. We appreciated your patience with us as we searched for what we wanted as well as your ability to navigate us through the process once we knew we were interested in this house. In particular, we want to thank you for finding a solution to our financing hiccup and helping that important piece go through. In the end, the rate and lender situation turned out better than what we had previously set up. What a blessing.
Thank you, also, for the kind note, the lovely framed "House Rules", and the DC key chain you left for us to find when we first got here. What a nice touch that was, it really made us feel right at home before we even unloaded.
We are so happy in our new home. Thank you again for all of your work to make this happen for us. We will certainly pass your name along to anyone we meet with real estate needs.
Best,
Joseph

Mary Meyland--Friday, May 18, 2012
"Myke worked with me from my location in Austin. I started my house search over the Internet as most folks do these days. Unfortunately as Myke confirmed most do the homes listed on the website where sold or under contract. Myke listened to my specific needs and never once pushed me outside my home buying boundaries. In fact she reinforced my choices and preferences every step. She does not hold back her honest property appraisals and really works tirelessly to find your home!! Her assistant Rachel keeps track of all the necessary does and don't and saves time and expenses with electronic processing. If you ever worked with a bird dog on a hunt and found great success, you will love to work with Myke. Cheers"

Myke,
Closing went just fine, and Landen is in the house. He and his friends love it. Mission accomplished!
Thank you for the "House Rules"; what a good mantra to live by.
We will definitely give you a call if we decide to invest more heavily in the College Staqtion area. We will also refer you to our friends if they ever need a realtor in your area.
Thank you, again, for your expertise.
Diahn & Blake Ehlers

"To Whom it May Concern:
I wanted to take a minute and tell you how great Ami Leatham is. I do not think she knows I am writing this to you, and she did not perform her actions to me to sing praises to her boss. Myself and my roommates are leasing a house on Paloma Ridge starting August 1. We soon realized that our current lease ends July 31, and that our furniture and ourselves had nowhere to go that night. I called Ami, and she first asked the current tenants if it was possible for them to move out a day early. One tenant could not, much to our disadvantage. However, Ami did not stop there. On her own, Ami first called the tenants in the other half of the duplex and asked if it were possible that they move out early. She then called the new tenants(that would start August 1) and asked if we could switch duplexes.
Because of Ami's selfless persistence, we now have a place to lay our head and put our furniture on July 31. Ami did not have to go out of her way to help us, but she did! She created more paperwork and more of a hassle for herself, just to help us out. We now are switching duplexes, and everyone is happy.
It is obvious that you hire the best of the best to work for you.
Thank you,
Lindsay M. Calvert

"Friday, June 19, 2009 10:20 AM
Good Morning Myke,
I love your mantra in helping me do my HOMEWORK!! Thanks to you, I just saved $6000.00 on my property value for tax purposes by protesting with the Brazos County Appraisal District. I did an informal appeal, had my homework together and low and behold, she lowered the value to match present data. Whoo Hoo!
Teresa and I really do appreciate you, your help and support of use being in our home. We love it. We love our neighbors. Rachel just sent us a report showing College Station is #6 in the nation in keeping its property values. My brother in Detroit's home is worth $50K less than what he bought it for some 20 years ago. I think we'll be staying here for a while.
Have a great weekend and thanks again for being the Best!
Regards,
Shawn

""I moved to BCS area in Fall of 2004 and started looking at houses the previous spring. Myke was very diligent in showing Cynthia and me "every house" in College Station. I know I must have tried her patience with my insistence that we see "everything", but Myke never showed it, always happy to meet me at or drive me to the next house, and some houses more than once. When we finally picked one (btw one of the very first she showed us), Myke walked with us through the entire deal, that closed without a hitch. Myke gets my highest recommendations for her professionalism in realty."

"We would like to thank Michelle Leatham for her excellent service to us as our agent while we were selling our house in College Station, TX. We were leaving the state and were impressed from the first that we were leaving our house in good hands with Michelle. We were proved right many times as we went through the steps of selling and finally closed the deal.
We first met with Michelle to discuss our pricing options. She helped us arrive at a selling price that was fair and yet in our best interest. This was not a simple thing since we were arriving at a value which included a garage converted to living space. It was critical how we approached this as we could have potentially lost a lot of money. Michelle was very aware of our position and worked with us in a shrewd manner to arrive at a value that was in our best interests as well as fair to our potential buyer.
Michelle then, through many conversations with us, was able to assess the things that were most important for us as a seller. She was able to understand what our limits were within the selling arena and saved us aggravation by fielding several offers which were markedly below our comfort level. She was willing to stand firm on our desires for a fair contract on offers which were more of a judgment call, even though that meant potentially more work for her. We felt she truly had our best interests in mind. The situation that stands out most in our minds occurred when our future buyers selected an inspection company that came back to us with a report that had many miscalculations and actual misstatement of facts about our house. We all felt that the potential buyers (who were a young couple and first time buyers) would not be able to get past the outrageous inspection report. Amazingly though, Michelle worked with this bad situation by contacting plumbers, electrical inspectors, and others who could put the report into perspective. One of the best parts of this was that she had us fax her a copy of our home owners warranty and then was able to contact them before a deadline which ended up savings us around $900.00 in replacement costs!!
All through the whole selling experience, Michelle was on top of everything. She handled all our dealings in a thoroughly professional manner. She followed through- with everything she promised to do for us and had the natural capacity to deal with people and situations that arose. She came through in a most excellent manner! We would recommend Michelle to any of our friends in a second."

"Myke has an impeccable sense of timing! This was the first time for us to ever sell a house, and things just could not have gone any smoother. Within three days of when our house went out on the market, Myke came to us with an acceptable offer. Not only did she have our house sold but she also aided us in locating a house that we wanted to purchase. It was absolutely amazing how quick it all happened! Myke was there for us every step of the way. She could not have been any more supportive, or knowledgeable. We recommend 'Myke' to everyone we know!"

"When I listed my house with Myke, I knew I was getting someone that was eager to work with me. Myke was so attentive to my listing. She knows the real estate area well, therefore she was also able to determine what kinds of customers were interested in my home. She was available for questions night or day. She handled the sale of my house very professionally and courteously.
Myke was also able to help with the purchase of my new home. If I decide to sell again, Myke will be my listing agent."

"Dear Myke:
After our phone call this morning I thought back to working with you and the help you were to Bob and me when time was of the essence. As you know, prior to selling our home I spoke with you extensively about what we were looking for in a home, and you were kind enough to send us information regarding the area, activities that were available here, as well as several home listings. As we were a little uncertain about where we wanted to live in B/CS, you were able to limit our search to the areas that you felt we would be interested in - thus, saving us a lot of time driving around trying to find one that would suit us.
When we finally met, I found that you showed a professionalism about you, that you were ready and able to work hard with and for us, to find us a home. It turned out to be that we had to find a home very quickly as our house in Colorado had been sold and we were under a serious deadline. You showed me many homes, all of which had many possibilities, and you exhibited much patience with me as I was stubborn about what I wanted. You spent the time with me that was necessary and then even went the extra mile to help us close and move in a hurry.
You saved us much effort and frustration by handling matters with our lender, the builder, the title company, and other listing agent. Thank you for helping us find this lovely home and making us welcome in the Bryan/College Station area. Best to you and continued success in your real estate pursuits."
