    "Excellent. Mike helped us in all facets of the home-buying process from identifying a property to fully vetting and negotiating a purchase. We are not native Californians and his knowledge was essential as he did all the work digesting the information, permits and vendor bids to get us through the process. I have worked with many, many agents on the east coast and Mike was a breath of fresh air. He really put in so much more work than I expected and continues to help us as we settle into our new home. Such a professional, competent, and helpful agent. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to buy/sell real estate in the area!"

    "Michael recently helped us sell our home in record time. From the moment we met him we were impressed with his professionalism. For our first meeting, he brought a personalized, 43 page bound binder with an analysis of the market conditions, a description of his marketing approach, many pages describing comparable homes, and then a recommendation of a sale price range. We decided on a price, Michael had some amazing photos taken by a professional, and we had a great offer in one week! His calm manner and experience made us always feel that everything was fine and in control. We really cannot say enough good things about Michael and recommend him highly."

    "I have been involved with real estate transactions since 1973, first as an attorney, then homebuilder, now as a developer and investor. When my wife and I sold our beach home in Aptos, our Real Estate Broker was Michael Lavigne. Mike's background in sales and marketing in the hi-tech industry, and as a builder of high-end luxury residential and commercial projects, combined with his intelligence, high energy, and extraordinary work ethic, produced impressive results. Our sales process was the most efficient and effective I have ever witnessed. To say that we are happy clients does not begin to tell the story."
