“Many people, including yourself, thought it strange that I, a real estate broker, would ask you to list my home. But like the expression says, ‘He who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client.’ I did some research on realtors in Rochester. I compiled statistics for number of transactions, number of listings, percentage of listings closed, percentage of listings lost (expired or cancelled), sales price as a percentage of list price and median days on market. You were in the top 5% in all categories. I already knew from word-of-mouth and from working with you before I was a licensed agent that you are very good at your job. I think it is safe to say, you are the best residential real estate agent in Rochester.” ~ Michael Chaffee, Broker

"Very, very satisfied is how I would describe the experience of selling my home with Lori Mickelson. What else can I say? My house sold within the first week on the market at the asking price. The whole process was completely hassle free. Lori and her assistant took care of everything. Professional is how I would describe the approach of Lori and her team." ~ Dennis Mays
