OUT-OF-STATE EXECUTRIX NEEDED SOMEONE SHE CAN TRUST TO HANDLE EVERYTHING & PROTECT A LITTLE GIRL’S FUTURE

Single Family Home in Queens NY
> SITUATION
After a tragic accident left a nine-year-old girl as the sole
survivor, her family’s executrix. Living out of state with no trusted contacts in New York, she made the decision to hire us to help. This property was under probate and one of their challenges was that the case was taking too long. With a reverse mortgage in place every month was counting and every month with the house vacant and not sold was less money for the little girl. In addition, the house was full of items so they needed to do an estate sale, a clean-out and light repairs in order to get top dollar. Their attorney recommended not to do anything until the probate was granted but they couldn’t wait and hire us for the job.
> SOLUTION
They turned to us to handle everything locally. After we gathered some estimates, we successfully coordinated the estate sale & clean-out. We introduced an affordable handyman to do some light repairs to the house to increase its value. After all of this was done, it was our (The Miguel Team) turn to get our team to start the pre-marketing phase.
> RESULTS
After just a few days being on the market we got multiple offers where we were able to negotiate the highest offers and get them up to 25K over the asking price. Unfortunately, We closed in 90 after because we were still waiting for Probate to be Granted. However, sellers were very happy with the approach because they were able to finalize everything after Probate was Granted instead of starting the whole process then. This approach helped the little Girl get more money for her future.

LOOKING TO SELL A HOUSE “AS IS “ Look no further The Miguel team is where you need to be!!
My mother and I are very pleased with Miguel and his team who went above and beyond to help sell our property that we inherited. The property had extensive water damage due to a broken pipe and The repair cost for the home was astronomical. Faced with this unexpected cost and unable to afford it we decided to see if we could sell the property as is and that’s when we found The Miguel team. Miguel explained the process to us with transparency and honesty. Weighing out the pros and cons, explaining the sellers and buyers market, helping us agree on a reasonable and realistic price to sell, pointing us towards a great lawyer ( James Franzetti) to help delegate the legal technicality of a living will, probate, property gains, etc..and ensuring the closing process went smoothly. He was always patient and responsive to all questions and concerns, looking for and finding solutions which really took the load off of our shoulders as we were also in the grieving process. We had a buyer in under 30 days and went under contract, closing went smoothly as expected and with the utmost professionalism.
Selling as is houses can be challenging but Miguel and his team have excellent experience and really look for the best solution that best fit your needs. We are more the grateful to have found him and feel confident that anyone who may need his assistance will too! (Executrix)

I cannot express enough gratitude for Michael and his exceptional team. Selling my deceased father’s house I knew would be emotionally challenging, and I knew very little of what to expect but Michael’s
unwavering support, calm demeanor, and proactive approach were a lifeline during this stressful time. He not only managed every detail with precision but also went above and beyond, taking on tasks beyond the typical realtor’s scope. Michael ensured a smooth journey, ultimately selling the house immediately for more than the asking price. I’m immensely impressed and will be entrusting him with another property in the near future. Thank you Michael and your team, for your professionalism, dedication, and outstanding results. (Executrix)

I interviewed three realtors and chose Michael and his team. Nothing negative about the other two, but Michael came across genuine and sincere - I felt most comfortable with him.
Michael took time to educate me about selling a home, assuming nothing, and provided me with options on how to proceed. Once I signed with Michael, he was in constant communication. Michael and Sylvia even physically helped me in preparing my home for viewing. Michael was there every step of the way. Michael brought me a qualified buyer is less time than I expected. A few days before closing, there was a hiccup with the buyer and Michael assisted in rectifying the issue. I was very pleased with Michael's service and found him to be an honest, caring person.
