About Michael

The Zen Experience

Michael is a broker with almost 40 years in the business. He brings a unique skill set and fresh acumen for numbers. He’s a multi-tasker par excellence, with a relentless eye for detail. He has an insider’s understanding of the market and an encyclopedic knowledge of the what’s required at every stage of the selling and buying process. He can talk you through all the steps…and talk…and talk.
 
He will represent you and your best interests, not just the deal. Which means that if you have to sell a property where the bedrooms had been converted into chicken coops (true story), save a family from a nest of feral wasps (another true story), or your great-grandmother has bequeathed you her 6 bedroom century home where the last renovations took place before the invention of electricity (yup), Michael’s your guy. He’s seen it all and probably done it all (though we can’t know for sure).
 
Michael understands that selling your home is always a deeply personal decision. He knows you need someone you can trust and depend on to handle any situation. You can expect to be fully prepared beginning with a comprehensive list of things to do to prep your home for sale. Not to fear, he’ll guide you through every step of it.
 
And come offer time, when fielding multiple offers at the poker table, he’ll tell you instinctively how to play them to your best advantage.
 
It’s hard to find a type of property that Michael isn’t familiar with. Whether it’s an income property, fixer-upper or high-end luxury home, country property complete with a old septic and well, Michael has sold it.
 
You probably will wind up knowing more than what you wanted to know about your property and your neighbourhood, which is a good thing. He’s passionate about what he does.
 
Yes, Michael talks a lot, but as his arm-length roster of clients can attest, it’s all talk in your best interest. If you want a freakishly astute mind that doesn’t miss a trick when coming up with the best possible numbers for your sale, then we suggest you give him a call.


Testimonials

... Michael's careful assessment of market conditions, analysis of local pricing and deep knowledge of the local market were instrumental in ensuring that the sale went off without a hitch...
 
Bruce H.
 

I have a parent with dementia who has lived in her home for over 30 years, my childhood home. With me in the US and so much to do, I had avoided the issue for too long.
 
Mike Elmenhoff achieved the impossible. Nothing had been touched or cleaned out in over 4 decades, yet, in under a week, it was emptied, refurbished, staged and sold, at 150K above asking! Absolutely unbelievable and incredible!
 
Kindness is often forgotten in the business of selling a cherished home. His professionalism is undeniable but his delicacy around my mother literally brought me to tears. Michael and his team are exceptional humans, and have my undying gratitude. I wholeheartedly recommend his services!

Michael sold our house for $100,000 over asking with only four days on the market. Michael's careful assessment of market conditions, analysis of local pricing and deep knowledge of the local market were instrumental in ensuring that the sale went off without a hitch. When it comes to selling your most valuable asset, it pays to have someone with that much experience to maximize your sale price and manage the entire process.

Mr. Elmenhoff covers a lot of ground in his listing presentation. At first, it seems like a blur. But the process moved quickly, his long checklist got done and our house sold in under a week. The terms he negotiated were brilliant and a little outside the box yet presented to the other agent and his clients in such a gracious and professional way, no one objected and everyone was happy.
 
Anne & Frank B.

 

Our house sold easily and it was Michael that started the whole thing off with a promise that it would be a fun and educational journey. It was! We liked his style, his honesty and most especially his creativity. He’s been doing this for almost 40 years and it really shows. We got our price and then some, and then we bought with him and put him through the paces! But yes, he found us the perfect house.
