Anne L and Pete F ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
SUPERSTAR. Highest recommendation. Michelle is a brilliant strategist; crafted our winning bid in the toughest market for buyers in history (Literally see stats for Jan 2022). Ethical, dedicated, professional, pleasant - and she knows the entire greater Denver area inside out. She worked unbelievably hard for us and has an extensive network of professionals to advise her clients. For example, she not only got a structural engineer to pick up his phone on a Sunday night, but he agreed to see the property on the very next morning. It had a sloping slab that concerned us. His independent analysis reassured us enough to make the offer on what is now our home. As buyers we were the clients from hell - couldn’t agree on a house. But she persevered. Got us the house. Like I said: SUPERSTAR.
Dennis S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle performed above and beyond duty. I had to sell a house 1,000 miles from where I live for a relative in need. She did everything I asked and priced the house at a critical point for an efficient sale, in this quickly changing market is important.
Michael and Camille C ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Buying a house in Colorado is already a stressful and wild process, but Michelle made it absolutely seamless. She understood our budget, what we wanted and what we liked. We found a home that really suited us and Michelle made sure that we got things repaired and added them to the contract to ensure we had the best deal and we did! She utilized other members within her realty office, and they were also great (Nicole). Michelle made the process easy, simple and painless. If you need a real estate agent who knows her stuff and will be in your corner, Michelle is your person!
Sarah and Leo ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle. She is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, experienced, and has remained positive and communicative during our 1.5 year search for a home. When possession date came, she went above and beyond to ensure that any complications were immediately rectified. She truly works with and for YOU to make buying a home a seamless process. I will never consider using anyone other than Michelle for my future real estate endeavors. Thank you, Michelle!
Conny and Max C ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My husband and I were first-time home buyers, and Michelle was absolutely perfect at walking us through the process. She answered all our endless questions, kept us up-to-date on the process, and made us feel confident about our choice to buy our home. I was especially impressed by the research she did on properties we were interested in and how she gave us all the information we needed to make our decisions without pressuring us to go in any particular direction. She was also very responsive and thorough when we needed to check in about something. I really felt supported and empowered in this process, despite being completely new at it all, and that's 100% because of Michelle. We'll definitely be recommending her to friends and family in the area.
Steve I ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
She consistently went above and beyond for me, my family, and my home. A rock star instead of the used car salesman types that one normally sees in the real estate field.
Kathy + Reily B ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle Schwinghammer was a pleasure to work with on the purchase of my son's condo in Lakewood, Colorado. She was very helpful and knowledgeable during the process and always responded quickly to our questions. I would certainly recommend her to anyone buying or selling their property. Thanks Michelle!
Lonny M ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nothing but good and positive to say about Michelle! Thank you for letting me be myself, working with my specific wants/needs, and helping me find the right home! A true professional through and through. Thank you, Michelle, you are truly appreciated!
Siobhan K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Stop looking, you’ve found your realtor. Take it from this Type-A, impossible to please, demanding client. If Michelle can impress me, she will make anyone happy. She is super-organized, and supremely professional. She was aggressive enough working on our behalf so that we got answers and results, yet still personable and funny so everyone she talked to wanted to work with us! She also has an amazing list of service providers and was able to get us great movers, inspectors, and an incredible mortgage broker. I cannot recommend Michelle more highly.
Diedre C. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
For a lot of us, selling a home is not only a business arrangement, but it is also an emotional one. There’s excitement, stress, and sometimes a little fear. In working with Michelle, those emotions were managed perfectly. She put me at ease by answering all my questions so that I understood the selling process. Michelle also handled everything, keeping me in the loop and allowing me to make smart decisions. We sold my house within days, and at a price that I felt so happy about. Use Michelle if you are in the process to sell or buy – the process will leave you feeling as though you have had fun and that you got the best deal possible!
Taylor L ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is FANTASTIC!! She helped me buy and sell with ease. With her, not only do you have a great Realtor to help navigate the crazy process, but a new friend as well! To top it off she recommended a great lender and we were able to do a 21-day close. Will be recommending her to family and friends.
Scott M ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I would highly recommend Michelle for all your real estate needs. Her sale of my property was handled with flawless execution. From the pre-sale consultation, through every step of the process, until the last signature at closing, Michelle handled the sale with professionalism, dedication, and tenacity. Michelle’s attention to detail and self-motivated, can-do attitude instilled the confidence I needed to guide me through an unfamiliar process. Michelle is honest, personable, and always made me feel like I was her top priority. Michelle understands the market and will surely be able to develop a strategy to cater to her client’s unique needs.
Rami + Becky W ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We recently worked with Michelle when selling and buying a home and it was a great experience all around. Our goal was to have an easy, efficient process while making sure we got the right price for both transactions. It is a high priority for us to work with an honest, reliable, hardworking and authentic individuals and Michelle is all of those things. Michelle worked with us to fit in with our schedules and styles and was always available when we needed her. We would absolutely work with her again and happily be a reference.
Johanna + Nick H ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle was recommended to us by some friends and did not disappoint one bit! Michelle’s knowledge of the housing market and the entire home buying process is unparalleled, and she is an absolute joy to work with! Michelle was able to get us under contract and into a home in the crazy Denver market within 30 days, all while keeping us on track and organized with a smile on her face and genuine enthusiasm. Will 100% recommend her to others!
Cathy C ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I promise you will never for an instant regret it if you ask Michelle to help you with your real estate needs. She is a delightful, funny, articulate person who is wholeheartedly dedicated to your complete satisfaction. My only regret is that I will never be able to work with her again because I am so completely in love with my new home in Evergreen!
Joan F ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You cannot go wrong trusting Michelle to lead you through the real estate jungle. She knows what she’s doing and will look out for you. Experienced and professional, she’s also great with people and understands how stressful the process can be. We are so happy we put our houses – buying and selling – in her capable hands.
Michael H ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle was such a joy to work with as we needed to find a home in a limited amount of time. She kept us informed and walked us through every step of the home buying process. I cannot recommend her enough!!!
Emily + Scott S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Working with Michelle was a treat. She excels at both the professional and personal aspects of being a realtor. On the personal side, she has the ability to really understand what home would work for our family. On the professional side, Michelle made sure every single detail of the documents were perfectly correct (and there are a LOT of documents). Being able to trust her to represent our interests in contract negotiations and manage every document submitted removed a lot of stress of the process for our family.
Shayna + Ryan W ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle helped us find exactly the home we wanted! She gave such helpful advice, listened well, and got us into every single home we wanted. She was so easy to get ahold of and kept in communication throughout the whole process. As first-time home buyers, we definitely were not Michelle’s top dollar clients, but we still felt like a priority. We learned so much from her – highly recommend!
Greg H ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is truly unbelievable! I’ve perhaps bought and/or sold over 20 homes in my life, and this most recent transaction has been the most efficient and best of them all. Michelle listens to what you want, negotiates hard on your behalf, and keeps you on task with reminders and notes of what’s coming up – inspections, maintenance requests, financing deadlines, etc. Post-closing she checks up on you and follows up with neighborhood tips. Michelle is a special agent and person!
Piera T ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is a pleasure to work with and extremely knowledgeable. She is friendly but also a fierce negotiator. She didn’t just help me purchase a home, she helped me invest in my future! She went above and beyond and got me to the closing table with ease and precision.
Caroline S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable and professional. We were able to rely on her every step of the way to sell our home quickly. We trusted her to lead us in the right direction, and she did! We would use her again and recommend her to friends and family in need of a real estate professional.
Sandra S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Outstanding Realtor! She is the best Realtor I have ever worked with!! She helped us tremendously!!! Can’t go wrong with her as your Realtor at all!!!
Kristi + Cory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle Schwinghammer was recommended to us by family members who had recently purchased a new home - and she was fantastic! We've bought and sold homes in the past, but Michelle is far and away the best real estate agent we've ever worked with. From our initial meeting at a local Starbucks to signing the final papers, Michelle was there to guide and educate us at every step. Her expert advice helped us price our old home perfectly based on the current market, and she worked tirelessly to help us find the perfect new home - which we did! Five Stars all around for Michelle Schwingammer!
Heather + Jason S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle was hands down the best realtor I have dealt with in 30+ years of buying/selling houses. She was extremely knowledgeable about everything, and she is a gracious and well-spoken person. She always had our best interests at heart, and she worked hard on both the purchase of our current home and the sale of our last property. Our last property was a difficult property to move in this current real estate climate, but Michelle got it done. I literally cannot think of anything that I wish would have been handled any differently. 10s across the board. I have passed her name on to every person I have heard that needs a realtor.
Charles + Helene L ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We loved working with Michelle to sell our home! She was thorough, reassuring, and her expertise resounded throughout the process. She shepherded us through each step with ceaseless professionalism. She was always available, dependable, and went the extra mile time and time again. We could not have done this without her! Thank you, Michelle!
Darren R ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle put in a lot of time and effort to sell my condo in record time. I felt well advised about my sale and well educated on the market after initially talking to her; I knew she was the one I wanted to have handle the sale. Michelle even helped advise me on the purchase of a house that I partially inherited. I highly recommend Michelle Schwinghammer for your real estate needs!
Julie L ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is amazing! I've been an originator in Colorado for many years and haven't met a realtor who has impressed me more.
Brad M ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
She is one of best realtors I have ever meant! I used to be a realtor myself! She is very thorough and helps keep the time frames up to date! If you meet her you will be impressed right from the start! Very friendly and honest! She has great character and knowledge about the industry! You just won’t go wrong with her at all if she is your realtor! Choose her as your realtor for life!

Ryan S ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is well in tune with both the market and my particular preferences. She has always been at the ready, and even more proactive than myself, in looking for a new property. I happen to be in no rush and want the 'perfect place' to call my next home. Michelle has me dialed in with listings and is a perfect example of a great realtor.
Andrea M ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Having someone that you can implicitly trust to hear and also see your vision when it comes to purchasing your new home or selling your current home, I believe, is one of the largest factors. Rest assured, in choosing Michelle you will have made the right decision.

Movemasters Denver ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Having dealt with many realtors and realty companies over the years, we have found Michelle Schwinghammer to be among the most reliable and reputable. She is diligent and hard working.
Susy H ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michelle is an extraordinary person and Realtor. She will take care of you and then some. She is very energetic, positive, reassuring, creative and doggone it very very smart! She also works hard. She’ll listen and follow your lead but will be a go-getter once you are ready. We closed less than a month after listing our home, securing above asking price at a time when the seller‘s market seemed to be slowing. We highly recommend Michelle for both buying and selling and feel extremely lucky to have had her help. Whoosh job done with very few tears. Go for it. She’s lovely. Here are some details:
Michelle had an easy and approachable demeanor throughout our selling process. She said, “I will take very good care of you” and she absolutely did. She repeatedly checked in on how the selling process was for us, goal wise, and even personally. Michelle was flexible with our needs, yet extremely well organized; she didn’t miss a beat. She helped us stay on task with seller responsibilities and even provided a color-coded calendar indicating “due dates”, while also consistently apprising us of progress and issues using phone calls, emails, and texts. She was very available when we had concerns, as well. Michelle was an all-star advocate in negotiations with the buyers’ agent, a skill she had to use multiple times to our benefit, and which she excelled at. She was delicate in the dance, yet very firm in her advocacy.
We also found that Michelle has a keen passion for marketing. She was driven to make our home as competitive as possible, hoping to generate multiple bids by way of precise timing of listing and open houses. Michelle took great interest in the media for our home, working hand in hand with the photographer to manipulate lighting, considering time of day for the shoot, and even including pictures of some of the quaint aspects of our 1939 home. We definitely toed the line on her recommendations to stage and provide access to our home and heads up…this required some hard work on our part, but it resulted in a picture-perfect presentation of our home. I believe Michelle would surely flex for any style of home seller participation, we found her irresistible!
Above it all, Michelle is a quality person. This is also not unlike the Realtors we have used before, they have been exceptional people, easy and lovely to work with just like Michelle. But something additionally wonderful about Michelle is her mission in helping people FIND the home of their dreams, and even to qualify even in less-than-optimal circumstances. (We obviously used her to help us sell but her passion was clear) We were fortunate to have decent eligibility to purchase our next home, but Michelle took the time to find and vet a realtor for a home purchase in Grand Junction which took an enormous load off our shoulders. Actually, she found us several Realtors in nearby towns, as we weren’t at first positive about where to locate. Once we found a home, she checked in with our purchase process and loan issues on numerous occasions to make sure our best interests were met; she even reviewed the contract for the purchase of our new home. This went way above expectations but was demonstrative of Michelle’s utter passion and dedication to helping her clients find the right place to live.
We had a most amazing experience with Michelle Schwinghammer as our selling agent and highly recommend her. From first contact we found a warm, caring, engaging, and dynamic individual who is client centered and responsive. Thank you, Michelle!

Can't recommend Michelle enough. She was an enormous help in buying our first home and was there from the day we looked at it till the day we got the keys and has kept in touch since.
