She was on site during our home inspection to make sure she knew everything that was going on before we proceeded with the purchase.

The response on this review is incorrect. Unfortunately instead of accepting their mistake and…read moreapology they justify their mistakes and this is the theme with the general manager, my agent and this response here. Again my agent gave me WRONG information. I am attaching a picture of his text and you can see that clearly he did not know about our non- homestead tax until July. The picture is for after I confronted him that the initial information he gave me was incorrect. Also we wrote our own objection letter with ZERO advice or help from our agent. He just shared our letter with the seller and did not negotiate those items, We Did. He even had no idea we are getting a new furnace. I told him that if he asked about that in advance we would pay the difference to install a high efficiency furnace rather than an 80% and he admitted he had no idea. Our agent tried to accommodate our constraints when it came to giving us tours. After we withdrew from our first offer (since the house turned out to be modular in the inspection), many texts and calls went unanswered or were answered really late. we value knowledge and considering Buyer's benefit in a buyer's agent (rather than early closing) unfortunately our relator John did not fully meet our expectation in that regard. If you are okay with receiving the wrong information you can choose them. Below I describe our experience with our agent : For the property that we purchased, I noticed the high taxes and asked him about the reason before making an offer. He mentioned it is because the property is non-homestead and we can change this status right after closing to prevent higher taxes. Given his incomplete and in my mind false information, I thought we can homestead the property and avoid high taxes right after closing. When I reviewed the taxes around the closing time I noticed that we are paying the high taxes and told him about miss informing me. He mentioned that it is only a three-month extra tax until Dec +/-$700 and was not worth negotiating. Again he was wrong because I called the township and noticed that the summer tax is still non-homestead and I cannot change that until July of next year. Long story short, either he genuinely did not know about this tax issue or he misinformed us. Both of which are unacceptable for an experienced realtor.

Have you ever thought about what realtors do to earn their impressive commissions? Let me tell you…read moreabout my experience with The Bauma Group, a truly dynamic and effective team. Their impact can be summed up in two key areas: their attentive and talented team members and their exceptional marketing efforts for my home. **The Team:** Mary Jo was my "Listing Agent," and she was nothing short of amazing! She guided me through the entire process, anticipating my questions and providing answers even before I asked. Her extensive experience shone through her proactive approach. At every step, she kept in touch with other team members, ensuring I was updated on their progress. Mary Jo's assistant, Kelly, sent me preliminary forms to review, ensuring everything was accurate and comprehensive. Since I had already moved 200 miles away, I truly appreciated her diligence in monitoring the property and coordinating access. The team even had a courier who checked on everything at the house. Michael, the Concierge, kept me informed with links to the "coming soon" listing on their website, Instagram, and Facebook. Different team members managed the open houses and coordinated with me beforehand to highlight key features of the property. Mary Jo guided me through the offers, while Kandice handled various aspects of the closing. Each team member was friendly, skilled, and made me feel important as a person. Their effective communication was evident, with everyone aware of each other's contributions. **Marketing:** The way this team presented and promoted my home was outstanding. I initially thought my house was ready to sell, but after following their recommendations (which I called a hit list), I saw a significant difference. Their suggestions helped modernize the appearance, emphasize key features, and effectively showcase the property. This resulted in 31 showings in just one week! Their marketing strategy included: - An 8-page dynamic brochure instead of a simple flyer - National exposure - Stunning drone photos - A 3-D virtual tour in the listing - Assistance with staging - Promotion through their website, Instagram, and Facebook Prior to listing with them, my house sat on the market with another agency for 6 months, garnering fewer than 10 showings and no offers. After switching to The Bauma Group, I was thrilled to sell my house over asking in less than a week. Their professional system and dedication truly impressed me. I wholeheartedly recommend The Bauma Group for anyone looking to sell their home!

After we closed on both houses, he went out of his way to take care of a small issue we had with our new house. Just to be clear--he had already received his commission, but he still went way out of his way to help us out. At some cost to himself. We would definitely work with him again. He's a really good, decent human being.

Jon Gordon helped my partner connect with the perfect commercial/studio space earlier in the year. So when the time came to jump into the market for a home, we immediately thought of him. Jon mostly handles commercial properties, and is also an associate broker, so we weren't sure if he would take up our cause or pass us along to another agent. We were happy when we heard that he would indeed be our buyer's agent. We knew from the start that we had a good "gut feeling" about Jon -- he seemed to have enough experience in the business to know all the ins, outs, and everyone around town, but he also seemed honest, up-front and on the level, something I haven't always sensed in my interactions with other agents. Throughout the process, we were glad to have Jon representing us and going to bat for us. He was a great listener and plenty personable, but could get tough when the situation called for that approach. And, of course, the situation did at times. We honestly could not have been happier or had a better guide through the process of first-time home ownership. After this positive experience as well as the positive experience with my partner's commercial space, I'd recommend Jon or any agent on his team that he personally recommended in a heartbeat.

I cannot imagine you could find anyone better as an agent to partner with for your real estate efforts! Stacie Dugas was highly recommended by a dear friend to help me find a place for my husband and I. When we 1st met, I realized that I wasn't ready to move forward. Stacie kindly showed me the property I was interested in and was wonderfully accepting that I wasn't ready. Months later, I called on Stacie again and she immediately jumped to help! We saw the property one day after it was listed and she had the offer submitted that evening! With her guidance and her crafting of a stellar offer, our bid was accepted 2 days later! From that moment on till even after the closing, Stacie's gentle guidance and perfect communications ensured the smoothest transaction I could have ever imagined!

From the first day when we met, when he picked me up on campus during my welcome weekend visit and drove me to a wide variety of his properties, I was impressed by his care and his desire to make sure I found a place to live where I was really happy. The apartment I rented was exceptionally well-maintained, and I lived there the entire 3 1/2 years I was in Ann Arbor. Every time I called Bob, he answered the phone. And anytime I needed a repair or regular maintenance, his warm and friendly staff (the wonderful Al and Tony), arrived within the hour. Whenever I called Bob, he asked how I was doing, and it took me a while to realize he was really asking and really wanted to know. And once, when I was horribly sick with the flu and I had to be on campus until 10 p.m. and I had a flight at 6 a.m. the next morning and my car was snowed in, I called Bob to tell him of my predicament and ask if he knew anyone I could call for help, and he sent over his crew to shovel me out, just out of kindness. I felt cared for and taken care of by the folks at Arbor Properties. I'll miss them, and I give them my highest recommendation.
