Mike was amazing. He really had a sense of how we wanted to go about finding a house, and suited everything to our needs. He was honest about any detail we asked about, and was never pushy. Finding a house was an extremely pleasant experience, and I can’t imagine another person doing a better job. After our offer was accepted he found us an amazing interest rate, got us more for our money, and pushed the deal through escrow, while closing a day early. I can’t recommend him enough.
Mike is a true customer advocate throughout the house buying process – he has extensive knowledge of house structure and has a great eye for spotting trouble that was invaluable, his experience and history in the SF market helped me to find the treasures in the area, his energy, enthusiasm and passion for what he does is contagious and made the house-hunting process fun and exciting, he far exceeded my expectations in customer service with his attention to detail and helping me through every step of the process – and the value of his absolute integrity cannot be measured.
I always imagined the search of my first home being a long and frustrating process. With Mike as my realtor, I couldn’t have been more wrong. From setting our initial ‘wish list’ to signing the closing papers, Mike guided us every step of the way. Not only did he joyfully answer my relentless questions, he educated us on things like the market, bidding, inspections, escrow, and so much more. I’m not sure I’ve met another professional, of any discipline, with such high spirits and customer service as Mike. I highly recommend him.
Mike just helped us buy our first home in San Francisco. Throughout the process, Mike was thoughtful, considerate, hardworking and always available for questions and discussion. I found Mike to be very willing to stay within the parameters of our search and even help us think ‘outside the box’ in terms of getting the most bang for our buck. We found Mike’s customer service skills to be top-notch. He listened to our concerns, addressed each issue and in the end, made sure we found the perfect home! I would highly recommend Mike.
Mike has helped us to find (and close on!) our very first home in San Francisco, and I cannot put into words how thankful we were to have worked with him. Mike had immense patience and understands the complexity of the decisions that have to be made and his knowledge of San Francisco real estate helped us navigate and figure out how we can get the best property for our money. On top of everything else, his honesty and integrity are his strongest suits and all of the advices he gave us were spot on. Mike goes above and beyond for his clients even after a closing and I would definitely recommend him!!
It was awesome working with Mike on the sales of my condo listing in San Francisco. He brought in an exceptional offer and met all the deadlines on the offer. Mike is very knowledgeable, professional, and easy going. He did a great job representing his client while collaborating with the Sellers. He kept us updated throughout the transaction.
Can’t wait to work with you again Mike!
Mike is principled, trustworthy and conscientious, and goes the extra mile to make sure no small detail of the home-buying (or selling) process is overlooked. Highly recommended.
Mike is a great! He’s very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.
I’ve worked with Mike for decades. He’s patient, persistent, a great listener and always responsive. He has deep roots in SF, which explains his extensive city knowledge and connections. He keeps his client’s best interest a priority. I’d definitely recommend Mike Plotkowski as your real estate agent.
Mike is THE agent to have on your side. My wife and I purchased a house in Sonoma last year and Mike was the best champion to have in our corner. We got to know him about a year before we bought and he kept us in mind as he saw inventory that would fit our pretty specific preferences. Then as we narrowed in on one particular property he expertly navigated the competitive bidding process and ended up helping us land the property for asking price. His expert negotiation skills and deep network in Sonoma real estate was the reason we were able to take it off the table so efficiently. I will 100% work with Mike again in Sonoma and San Francisco. Thank you Mike!
My wife and recently worked Mike Plotkowski on our purchase of a home in San Francisco. We live out-of-state so we needed someone who knew the City well and who could help us find the right home in the right neighborhood, Mike has great real estate expertise having grown up in the business. Once we found the right house, Mike led us through a successful negotiation with the seller. Mike is by far the best real estate agent we’ve ever had. He listened to us and he was very patient. In the midst of our search, we changed our focus from the southern part of the city to the north. He was able to pivot without missing a beat. We’re currently doing some renovation work and Mike helped us find a trusted contractor. This is our third home purchase in the Bay Area and I hope it will not be the last. We will call Mike P. when we need anything real estate-related. He’s absolutely a treasure!
Mike’s an amazing expert to have by your side when looking to buy a home: he knows the market and will spend some time investigating into disclosures to ensure you always do the right move!
Mike was knowledgeable, professional, and very easy to work with. San Francisco is not an easy market to buy in but he made the process as easy as possible. If you’re looking for a home in San Francisco, Mike is the person to go with.
You won’t find a better all-around realtor than Mike Plotkowski. He’s knowledgable and proficient in San Francisco real estate, with the experience to back it up. You’d expect that from a luxury real estate agent anyway.
Though where Mike stands out the most is his ability to connect with you, empathize your situation, and then plan the best course of action given the opportunities on the table to buy or sell a home. It’s this “people skill” that truly sets Mike apart from the rest.
I highly recommend Mike as an exceptional real estate agent. He’s incredibly affable, experienced, and knowledgable about the entire Bay Area. He has a great instinct for laying back while offering the perfect support in any given situation. You can’t ask for a better sherpa when you’re navigating a real estate deal!
I had the pleasure of working together with Mike on a real estate transaction in the Santa Rosa area, as he represented the buyer and I represented the sellers. I found Mike to be very professional and attentive to details. He did a great job representing his client, while maintaining a collaborative approach towards resolving any challenges that came up. You’d be in good hands should you choose to work with Mike on a purchase or sale of property.
Working with Mike has been a great experience! He has extensive knowledge in the real estate industry and over 20 years of experience, and you can tell just by talking to him.
His team is professional, reliable and committed to the success of their clients. You won’t regret working with Mike!
Mike helped me buy a home in Sonoma county during the pandemic. He was really great to work with during a particularly crazy time in the market – from talking through options to negotiating the offer. Whether it’s your first home or you 50th, Mike is a person you want on your team!
