Mike is an extremely organized and effective realtor, and I would highly recommend him if you are…read morelooking to buy or sell a home. He assisted me with purchasing a home in a very desirable community, guiding me step by step through the process and ensuring that I presented an attractive offer in a multiple bid scenario, while still keeping within my budget. He also did a wonderful job of communicating with the seller's realtor, as well as my lender, persisting when we needed additional information and always coming through ahead of schedule. While looking at homes in the area, Mike also was able to efficiently present me with market comparisons, ensuring I was not overpaying for a property. Mike was always prompt, courteous and available when I needed to communicate, even on weekends and after hours. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Mike was recommended to us by our daughter and son-in-law who were thrilled with the level of…read moreservice he had provided them in finding a home last year. I was myself a Realtor for many years so I have a ton of experience in the buying and selling of homes and I found Mike to be as good as they get in this business. He was always on the lookout for our best interests and very diligent in following through on things. He was readily available when we needed him and was an absolute delight to work with through our whole process. Without question I would use Mike again and recommend him to others.

Mike Benton review I tried to make a purchase from Mike for…read morethree weeks for a truck he listed on marketplace. Initially he answered me briefly and when I told him I wanted to come purchase it, he stopped answering. I contacted him for two weeks trying to buy the truck. After two weeks of him not answering he then lowered the price $3000. Seeing as Mike is a realtor and post a lot on Facebook I can only suspect that he spends a lot of time on his phone and was receiving my messages. Desperately needing the truck I then reached out to him through text message, phone calling, emailing, and even going as forward as to call City Hall when googling his name revealed he's the mayor of his town. Mike never answered me back after over three weeks of trying to purchase the truck, Mike sold it to someone else. I saw a review on yelp stating Mike was not found of out of town people and I have to wonder if this was the case and why he would not sell me the vehicle after trying for so long. If this is how he acts selling a vehicle I can't imagine using him to sell my house or using him to purchase a house. Very unprofessional of someone who holds a public spotlight as mayor as well as a realtor.

I read the previous (and only) Yelp! review for Ron on here. And yes, as any good agent making his…read moreway in the cut-throat world of real estate would do, Ron reached out to me unsolicited. And I am glad he did!!! I was dealing with lackluster agents who promised the world, but took forever to respond to a simple email. I wasn't selling a mansion and they wanted to invest little if any time in my modest townhome. Ron however was responding IMMEDIATELY to my emails (and later, texts). He promised me he would work diligently and he did. Not only did he get me $10,000 more than the ERA, Redfin, and USAA approved agents, his real estate instincts got my house on the market with PERFECT timing! He saved me at least an additional 2 months mortgage payments, got my house under contract within 10 days (by someone who saw it the third day it was on the market), and got it all done while answering all of my questions. Not only that, he and his staff navigated me through the tricky waters of the real estate legal speak. I would give Ron a glowing review; and I am!= Not only did he make me more money than the other agents, he did so with professionalism, respect, courtesy, and an eagerness to help. He is truly a nice and honest guy in a world that doesn't always reward that.

If 'Mr Waterfront' knows so much about waterfront and the surrounding communities, he would have known that this was a treasure enjoyed by generations in this community, and would promote the well-being and conservation of waterfront communities. It is shameful, and I wouldn't trust him or his team.
