"Mike, thank you for the past few years
for your hard work as my Realtor.
You've asked me for a reference and I am very
happy to endorse you. The three transactions
you've successfully closed for me were done professionally.
You were very prepared, very enthusiastic, and
I discovered that you have an excellent reputation
in the industry. There were many little
details on my transactions and you knew
how to handle all of them. I am looking
forward to working with you again in the future.
I always recommend you highly to those looking
for a Realtor."
James R. Balesh, Esq., Pasadena.
"Mike, thanks for handling my family's trust sale in Pasadena so well. Your expertise in the market, and your understanding of the trust process made selling this property very smooth. Your attention to the small details, and all the updates and straight-talk was great. I'm glad that the HOA President recommended you so highly. Thanks"
Kathy Blond, Trustee, Fullerton.
"I would not hesitate to recommend Mike
Bell to anyone looking to buy a home in today's
tricky market. Even though the offer we made on
our current home was the third lowest monetarily,
it was accepted due to Mike's expertise in handling
the deal. His knowledge of the market, attentiveness
and ingenuity secured the home of our dreams and
I honestly don't believe we would be living where
we are without his fine work."
Mike and Jane Devlin, Bungalow
Heaven Pasadena.
"What I like about Mike Bell is his straight-forwardness in the difficult sales transaction he successfully closed for me in Altadena. Too many parts of this transaction needed to be looked after and taken care of, many that were beyond the scope of a normal agents' duties and abilities...but Mike was prepared, provided straight-talk, and went beyond what I expected, and got the job done."
Ali Farazdaghi, Altadena.
"Dear Mike, we appreciate the insight you have on investment and retirement
properties on the Baja Peninsula, and the fact that we will be close
neighbors in such a great place. Once you found a project that met our
needs, you immediately notified us and forwarded all necessary information
to us, and we appreciate all the pictures and notes from your own trips and
experiences in buying there. And thanks for not being pushy. We very much
appreciate your professional approach and look forward to enjoying our
wonderful home."
Anne and Tony Fletcher, Bay Area.
"Mike is a very skilled and great agent.
In the two transactions we worked on, I was impressed
with Mike’s ability to keep things moving
forward and his spot-on advice. I would
highly recommend Mike Bell to both buyer and seller.
He understands the market, and better yet he understands
people. Mike is a winner."
Jeff Jones, Business Administrator
at Lake Avenue Congregational Church, Pasadena.
"Mike Bell has been a great addition to
the Prudential family when he joined us in 2005
after successfully running his own brokerage for
years. Mike brought a wealth of experience, enthusiasm, and
comraderie to our Estate Properties sales office.
In his first year he achieved Chairmans Circle Gold, the highest nationwide level a Realtor can
attain, and he did this by providing excellent
service, long hours, and dilligent salesmanship."
Kyle Kemp, Branch Manager of
Prudential John Aaroe Pasadena.
"I met Mike after a bad experience with
another agent from another company. So, I was
wary about the entire process but he had helped
some friends of mine and they said he did a great
job. We found a great townhouse and he worked
to close the deal with a difficult seller. He
walked me through the entire process, explained
everything, helped with the financing, used his
experience and tenacity to make the deal a good
one for me. Since I am not someone who buys and
sells property regularly and after my previous
experience, he made sure I knew everything I needed
to know, dealt with all of my concerns, answered
all my questions and made sure the deal went like
it was supposed to. Mike will definitely be my
Realtor next time."
Mike Kranther, Los Angeles.
"As Susan and I gradually get settled in our new home, I want to take a minute to thank you for your help in selling our former home in Pasadena's Bungalow Heaven. The decision to sell our historic Craftsman home was a difficult one. I doubt that many people use the word "pleasant" to describe the home-selling process, but it's the word that comes to mind when I think about our dealings with you. From the start, you showed a keen understanding of the historic significance of our house, our desire to find a buyer with a similar sensitivity, and our overall needs. You explained every step of the process clearly, and you were exceptionally patient in answering our questions and following up on our requests. You were easy to
reach and always returned calls promptly, were on time, and were prepared
and professional for all appointments. As you know, we interviewed several
Realtors before choosing you. I look forward to catching up when we return
to Pasadena on our next visit. All the best to you and your family and your
own Craftsman masterpiece."
Mike & Susan Lange, Prescott, Arizona.
"I enthusiastically recommend Mike Bell
to anyone looking for an outstanding Realtor.
We met Mike when he showed one of his listed properties
to us and he continued to work with us for some
time until my wife and I had about given up trying
to find a house to fit our budget and taste. Mike
continued to work with us long after we began
to feel guilty for taking up so much of his time
until just the right house was found. There were
several offers on the house but Mike skillfully
guided us to the winning bid without having the
highest monetary offer. Mike understands all aspects
of real estate and is a great people person. We
have purchased several homes in the past working
with different realtors. Mike is far and above
the very best."
Bob and Melissa Melendes, Bungalow
Heaven Pasadena.
"Mike, thank you for a great job in finding
and smartly negotiating the purchase of my
home in South Pasadena. We had met at an
Open House and I used your services because of
your market knowledge, and was happy that
you knew most of the agents in the area.
When a friend or family member needs great real
estate consultation, I will have them call you."
Rustin Mork, South Pasadena.
"Thanks for being a bulldog in protecting our contract rights in helping us buy out first home. Also, you had a lot of great ideas and insight as to how the house was built, and how to improve the flow into the backyard. Honestly, we thought you'd be too busy to help us, but you did a great job at making us feel like we were your only clients. "
Dorian Quispe and Nicole Dressler, Pasadena.
"Mike, thank you for your excellent work
in both selling my home in Pasadena and negotiating
the purchase of my new condo in Pasadena. I received
an excellent referral to you through a work colleague
and have been consistently pleased with your preparedness,
organization, market knowledge, and frank and
professional nature. In addition, you are just
a true pleasure to work with during what, by their
nature, are stressful situations. I will definitely
use you for future real estate transactions and
will gladly refer you to friends and family."
Christina Smolke, Pasadena.
"Michael Bell has had a profound affect
on my current financial condition. In the
past 4 years he has handled 3 real estate
transactions for me. Despite the fact that
I have family and friends who also work in the
real estate field, I chose Michael because
he is the only one who seemed to take me seriously.
He has a very keen business sense and always seems
to be privy to information that other agents aren't.
I've gotten in on some great deals just because
he already had his foot in the door, a door that had
already been closed otherwise. He is tenacious
and hard-working and doesn't stop until he gets
you what you want. I so appreciated what
Michael has helped me achieve, and recommend him
to anyone who is serious about investing in their
future real estate position."
Christina Spano, Altadena.
"Mike, thank you for your hard work over
the years. You've worked very hard and so
well with all my different clients (and also on
selling my own home) and I appreciate everything
that you've done, and that's why I continue to
give you all of my real estate business.
Additionally, the probate sales you've handled
were done extremely well, and the estates
you represented were very happy with the tremendous
overbids you produced because of your marketing
know-how. Thanks again Mike."
Rhonda Walker, Esq., Pasadena.
"Mike, thank you for doing what you promised
in successfully selling our Pasadena bungalow
and finding us a new home in South Pasadena's
Mission Meridian Village. Your knowledge of the
market in both cities allowed us to to capture
substantial equity in both transactions. Your
prepardness, reputation with other agents, and
advice was clearly a huge advantage, and your
attention throughout the process anchored our
trust."
David and Frances Valera, South
Pasadena.
"Mike, I didn’t know you were an Eagle
Scout until I read your bio. I don’t
know much about Boy Scouts, but you certainly
were prepared, informed, enthusiastic, and handled
my business with integrity. You’ve
helped my family and I purchase our first home,
and a few years later, our present home.
In all 3 dealings you were never pushy, and I
really appreciate that. Thank you Mike!"
Celia Wong, Alhambra.
