I listed my house with Mike Bell after being referred by a friend. He had known Mike and been involved with him on deals for 20 years and said he is the best. My wife and I spoke with him and were very impressed. Mike has authored a book on common mistakes people make in selecting a selling agent. We read it and it is right on target.
Mike led us through the process and with his extensive networking in the market, was able to guide with sound input to overcome the obstacles.
We closed in a realistic time frame from listing. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mike and his team to you if you’re looking to sell in the San Gabriel Valley.

Mike Bell not only met but exceeded our goals: timely sale at a price above what we expected to a buyer who understood and appreciated our historic home and its landmark district location. These all confirmed our choice of Mike, as a fellow historic home owner and neighbor who totally believed in the home's value - his prediction as to price and buyer were spot on. Mike tailored the marketing for our sale, with input from us. He advised on readying the house for sale, and managed the city occupancy inspection and appraisal for timely and excellent results. He attended all showings (important to us since we were selling the home occupied), and helped us navigate multiple offers after only 7 DOM. We would not hesitate to recommend Mike and his team.

Deciding to sell the home that's been in the family for 60 years wasn't easy. Realtor Mike Bell stepped in with kind words and encouragement. Mike's mastery of his field reassured me, and his no-pressure attitude gave me time to make my decisions and clear out the house. With his help, I quickly sold the house for more than the asking price.

I wholeheartedly recommend the Mike Bell team to anyone considering selling their property, whether it's a recent acquisition or a family treasure. Thanks, Mike!

I'll be forever grateful for everything you did. My siblings and I were overwhelmed with the task of disposing of our mother’s large estate. We didn’t live near each other and the property had been deemed historical, which limited what we could do with it. Michael Bell was recommended to us and I will always be grateful. As soon as we listed the house with him, it felt as if a weight had been lifted from our shoulders. Michael sold the house for top dollar with minimal to no repairs needed, and escrow closed without a hitch. Thank you, Michael!

Working with Michael was an absolute walk in the park! The transaction was smooth and he answered every email and call promptly. My clients and I loved how knowledgeable he was about the city of Pasadena and Bungalow Heaven. He really knew the ins and outs of the neighborhood and answered every one of my clients questions. I've really enjoyed working with him and look forward to doing a deal together in the future!

We chose Michael to represent us for the sale of our condo after interviewing a handful of realtors in Pasadena. His confidence, yet personable demeanor, gave us the trust in him that he would be able to take over after we move out of state. He guided us with good insights during the process and when we had to make some big decisions. The communications and sale went smoothly every step of the way with him and his team.

After interviewing several local realtors, I selected Michael Bell to sell a probate house that had very serious deferred maintenance issues. Michael was able to see past the house's surface problems, recommend (then execute on my behalf) needed clean up and expedite an effective marketing plan. The end result was exactly what he told me to expect – an above listing final price with the deal closed within three weeks of the initial listing. What more can an out-of-town seller ask for?
