What makes me different? I will not represent a buyer on my own listings, and explain to my sellers that they have an unwavering advocate from the beginning to the end.
In this challenging market, experience, hard
work, and reputation count. I've constantly had a probate or trust transaction, and in 2011 I helped 32 families close their real estate transactions. I even bought my current home in probate court. I also help train agents. We have E
& O, legal counsel, and I am a member of the National Association of
Realtors, the California Association of Realtors, and the Pasadena-Foothills Association of Realtors. I have 19 years experience
with over 220 sales. I consistently network with the top residential and
commercial brokers.
I am also an active Exclusive Sponsor of the Pasadena Bar Association.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Attorney testimonials:
"Mike Bell and his team were engaged to sell a somewhat distressed
residential property on behalf of a trust. He politely but aggressively
marketed the listing and succeeded in closing a sale in a very
difficult market. Throughout the sales effort, he kept the trustees
informed of all pertinent developments and never faltered when two
prospective buyers fell out of escrow. I commend his professionalism
and highly recommend his services."
Brian D McKay, Esq.
Pasadena
"I first knew Mike Bell as one of the top agents at the company for which I was General Counsel, Prudential California Realty. Later I represented Mike and was able to closely review his actions as a real estate agent. I found him to be thorough, knowledgeable and diligent - in short, exactly what one wants in a real estate agent. In this difficult market, it pays to work with a true professional like Mike."
Peter Solecki, Esq.
Winton Larson & Solecki LLP
General Counsel of the San Diego Association of Realtors
"Mike, thank you for the past few years for your hard work as my Realtor. You've asked me for a reference and I am very happy to endorse you. The four transactions you've successfully closed for me were done professionally. You were very prepared, very enthusiastic, and I discovered that you have an excellent reputation in the industry. There were many little details and challenges in my transactions and you knew how to handle all of them. I?m looking forward to working with you again, and always recommend you to those looking for a Realtor."
James R. Balesh, Esq.
Pasadena and Los Angeles (4 transactions)
"Mike, thank you for your hard work over the years. You've worked very hard and so well with all my different clients (and also on selling my own home) and I appreciate everything that you've done, and that's why I continue to give you all of my real estate business. Additionally, the probate sales you've handled were done extremely well, and the estates you represented were very happy with the tremendous overbids you produced because of your marketing know-how. Thanks again Mike."
Rhonda Walker, Esq.
Altadena and Pasadena (5 transactions)
"I recently had the opportunity to work with Mike Bell to find a new home in Pasadena. We found Mike to be knowledgeable, highly professional, and respectful of our time. Mike understood what we were looking for and worked diligently to locate and show only those properties that met our criteria. Once we found the right home Mike was an effective advocate on our behalf. We will recommend Mike to our friends and would not hesitate to use his services in the future."
Chris Borgeson, Esq.
Pasadena
"We highly recommend Mike Bell as a smart, diligent professional who knows the real estate business inside and out. He has always been responsive and thorough in his dealings with us. Mike knows how to use technology to get results for a seller, and in our case he was able to induce multiple offers that he evaluated for us with insight and intelligence. He also has a friendly, upbeat demeanor and the people skills that engender goodwill. He is a good listener, but he also has the judgment and experience that enable him to point out factors that a seller ought to consider before making decisions throughout the process. Mike gave us excellent advice every step of the way."
Scott Green, Esq.
Pasadena and West Hollywood
"I have known Mike Bell since I worked with him at CB-Richard Ellis, 14 years ago. He is an experienced and knowledgeable real estate professional, and it's a pleasure to work with him. I recommend him without reservation."
Nicholas West, Esq.
