Working with Mike O'Brien to sell my home was, in a word, fantastic. As you might imagine, selling a house in which you raised your family and lived for nearly three decades can be emotional and taxing. Add to that, in my case, an older home with a lot of challenges. During all this Mike was not only professional but always there on a personal level to offer support, suggestions, and clear guidance. I prefer people to give me straight-forward advice when offering a professional opinion and that is Mike. He was clearly sensitive to some of the more challenging aspects to selling our house, but his professional opinion was always clear and concise. As for the sale itself, it went off quickly and without a hitch. Mike was there every step of the way to ensure there were no problems and when we did find an issue or two (unrelated to Mike) he helped shepherd things through to the end. Words I would use to describe him are: professional, sensitive, friendly, decisive, thoughtful, and intelligent. Put them together in any order you wish, it all spells out someone worth working with. I can't really imagine buying or selling another house without Mike in my corner. That is a 100% endorsement of Mike O'Brien and Benchmark Real Estate.
