As first-time homebuyers, we were lucky to have Michael in our corner. Michael did an amazing job of explaining the home buying process and was extremely knowledgeable about the housing market. He knew what ours needs were and took it into consideration when looking at every small detail of each home we toured. He was patient and extremely easy to reach. When the time came to put an offer in on our dream home, he got our offer in that night. His strategic approach to negotiating ensured we walked away with the best deal possible. We put all of our trust in Michael and he delivered. We highly recommend him to anyone searching for their next home.

Michael is an absolute rock star! We were under contract on the sale of our home after only being on the market for a couple days and we closed less than a month later. He truly went out of his way to make sure everything was done quickly and correctly and explained every step of the process to us along the way. I would recommend him to anyone, and I definitely plan on using him for any of my real estate needs in the future.

Michael Vanderkooy was great from start to finish. From where to start the loan process to signing closing paperwork Michael was on top of everything. If he didn't know the answer he was able to get an answer in a timely fashion. His main concern was to set me up for success in the house I bought.

Mike was great to work with. He was always attentive, helpful and very knowledgeable

I am honored to not only work with Michael again, but also to call him my friend. An excellent experience with a true professional. Would greatly recommend him to anyone.

Michael truly had my family's best interest at heart. We looked at many houses throughout our purchase journey. His constant attention to detail helped my family purchase the correct house for our needs. Navigation through septic issues, financing issues, and contract negotiations were handled with professionalism. We greatly appreciate Michael's dedication to his job and how much he helped our family find our new home. Thank you!

I've worked with Michael before previously selling, and he helped me this time by now. He's very knowledgeable about the buying process what to look for in homes, what to avoid, inspections and all the homeboy needs a person would have. He is very timely and his response as always available if you have questions and I would only recommend him for purchasing a home or selling.

This is now the second time that I have used Michael and I would like to say I hope I don't move again but if I do, I would definitely have Michael as my realtor again. He is extremely knowledgeable. Easy-going helps point you in the right direction and also The way he works. It feels like you're working with family. Thanks again, Michael. You're the best.

We were from out of town and knew very little about the area. Afftr explaining the home we had in Huntsvlle, Al. and that we would like something similar if possible. Michael went to work finding us houses to look at. After narrowing that list to about six or eight Michael would set up showings and/or tell us about the areas. From that information we would decide on the final list of homes to go view arrange times/dates to come to Maryville. Viewing on line pictures and actually viewing the homes were often quite different. We went through this process a lot of times with many, many trips back and forth HSV/Maryville. We looked at a lot of homes that just did not meet our needs in the actual viewing. I kept waiting for Michael to give up on us but he never did. After around eight / nine months of searching and two offers that fell through, we purchased our new home. To date we love it here, Michael has followed up after closing on serveral ocassions. Michael gets 10 out of 10 STARs!

Michael was FANTASTIC. Deciding to sell our home was highly dependent on an accurate expectation of sales price. Michael did a great job of breaking down the price he believed we would sell for and also how he came to that conclusion. This was the main reason we chose Michael for the sale of our home vs our previous agent. He explained a well thought out plan for our property and in the end exceeded our expectations and had an offer at asking after the first showing. 100% would recommend him to anyone we know.
