Michael went above and beyond expectations. They made the experience quick and painless.

The quality of Michael's marketing really helped get the attention of buyers with interest, not just lookers. Michael was frank about all aspects of the property, including the weaknesses. This gave us confidence in Michael's appraisal and advice as we went forward.

Michael was always attentive and quick to respond! Thank you to Michael for making this a tremendous experience! They were outstanding in every way!

Michael has been there for me from the very beginning and even checked to see if my move out of state has been going well, asking how my fur babies and I are doing (he spoiled my dog completely). I consider Michael to be not only my realtor but a newfound friend. The sale went through quickly and problem-free due to Michael. I couldn’t have asked for a more professional, personable, and people-oriented realtor.

Michael came highly recommended to me; he was very professional, available to me all the time, answered all of my questions, and had my best interests at the top of his mind throughout the entire process.

Michael Ballantyne is truly a professional real estate Broker. Selling a house is a complicated business, and Michael knows every detail inside and out and then some. Weeks after the successful closing of the sale of my house, he is still tracking unfinished business related to some of the important details regarding ME AND OTHER PARTIES involved in the sale. I would highly recommend Mr. Ballantyne to anyone interested in selling their home.

Michael's dedication to detail during the process of selling our home was impressive. He was always available to answer any questions we had during the entire process. His professional knowledge was very impressive, and his personable attitude made the sale of our home worry-free.

Michael is caring, thorough, and always goes that extra mile. Made a very tense adventure easier and reminded me to breathe. Love this guy.

Selling͏ a property with Michael went perfectly. Having sold several properties, I have never worked with an agent as effective as Michael. He knows the market, kept me up-to-date at each step, and provided insight on everything from plumbing to paint colors. He went above and beyond by helping prepare the house for sale and ensuring the work got done in a timely manner. It was a really great experience, and I am looking forward to working with him again.

Michael Ballantyne is one of a kind! He is very knowledgeable in his field, and he is a great listener. Michael was amazing from the beginning to the end! He was prepared with several listings that met our criteria each time we met. He answered numerous questions at various times of the day/night. Most importantly, for every call or meeting, he devoted his time 100 percent to us! We never felt rushed. As we were touring multiple listings, Michael was favorably known by other agents. He has a stellar reputation that has been rightfully earned. My husband and I most appreciated his expertise that guided our decision to buy a home in Florida without imposing his own desires on us to make a sale. Everyone should be so fortunate to have Michael Ballantyne by their side when buying a home!

Fantastic realtor. Michael was so comfortable to work with. I felt like he was an old friend. He anticipated everything that needed to be done and solved issues before I could worry about them. I would recommend him a hundred times over to anyone needing a realtor! He has his seller's interest as his top priority and makes a sale seem effortless! Kudos to a wonderful person!!!!

I started with one realtor and ended up with two on the same team. Since I am selling out of state, this may be common practice in Florida. Michael Ballantyne jumped right in. He really put in some SWEAT equity into the sale of my grandmother's condo. He was experienced in the procedures of clean out, arranging for giveaways, to both private and community-based charities, before arranging junk pickup. He contacted and arranged for the appropriate contractors to obtain estimates and submit them to me, thus keeping me informed and supervising the work that was being done, including inspections. I decided to put the condo on the market before making any more repairs or upgrades. Lo and behold, it sold before it went on the MLS listing. This was due to communication by the first realtor to interested parties.

Michael truly demonstrates a classic approach from start to finish. His time was our time; he is thorough, well versed with the market, and delightful when sharing the highs and lows with my husband and me during the life-changing experience of buying our first home together (in another state!) He even surprised us with the gift of moving boxes! Genius! Everyone should be so lucky to have his insight and support while buying or selling a home.

Michael was always the consummate professional in my lengthy purchase path. We looked at numerous potential homes, he always listened to my wish list and led me patiently through many options. He always came prepared to evaluate the pros and cons when looking at a property and was very gracious with his time, even when asking to go back numerous times to view a potential home purchase. I would highly recommend Michael!

I certainly appreciated your professionalism and dedication to duty. Florida has become a much tougher market since the pandemic and your persistence paid off.
