“Mike was excellent, start to finish. I have never sold a home before and he stepped me through the whole process. He nailed the asking price and the eventual selling price and even helped to find the perfect time of year to put the house on the market. I could not have asked for a better experience.”

“We were originally with a different agent looking for our first home when after a few months we transitioned to Mike Long. He has been involved in over a dozen real estate transactions within our family. When had our first call with Mike, we could tell he was an advocate for what we were looking for and positioned himself as someone we could trust navigating our home search. In one of the most challenging real estate markets and after looking at three dozen homes, we knew Mike was not a quitter. His optimism carried us through some of the most difficult weeks of our search. However, day in and day out, he brought humor, a shoulder to cry on and ensured that we didn’t stray from our core non-negotiables. Mike Long is an exceptional realtor.”

“Mike made finding and closing on a house from out of state so easy. He was always available for questions, helped me narrow my search, was able for virtual walk throughs, and provided sound advice during contract negotiations. I highly recommend Mike - he is personable, supportive, and made my home purchase less stressful than I thought possible.”

“Having Mike sell our home was a true pleasure & blessing. Mike exceeded all expectations. We highly recommend him. Mike was very professional & communicated with us really well. We were kept in the loop on everything. The listing pictures were phenomenal as well. The best I've ever seen. Thank you, Mike!”

“I recently moved to Naperville from Chicago with my wife and baby. Mike Long helped us navigate the buying process (first time homebuyers) and helped us secure our first home. We are extremely happy with the service Mike provided and we would recommend Mike as a realtor for many reasons. He is extremely knowledgeable on the area and the buying process. He will spent countless hours working with you to find the perfect fit. He will also act as your counselor (no joke) when you just need a friend to vent to. My wife and I moved 3 months ago and can confirm he found us a great home in a great neighborhood within our budget. Thank you Mike.”

“My wife and I closed on our house in October 2023….but what a journey it was! We have been looking for houses in Naperville for few months unsuccessfully. On a spring afternoon of the same year, at an open house, we met Mike. We discussed about market conditions, what we were looking for and he made some suggestions on to approach our home searches. At that time we were working with a real estate agent. Few months later, still facing tough market conditions, we decided to reach out to Mike as he seemed very knowledgeable about Naperville. We put up a game plan given the competitiveness of the real estate market. Although the plan required us to make some adjustments and being patience, it paid off at the end. Mike has been on our sides throughout the process, sharing his knowledge, his network, always responsive, and more importantly to us, he was very patient and not trying to interfere in our decisions.”

“Mike was referred to me by a long time trusted friend and after my home buying experience with him, he is my new recommendation for anyone in the Western suburbs. It can be hard to find an agent that you can trust and Mike is that guy. I was new to the Western suburbs and he helped me narrow down to the right towns and neighborhoods. He is extremely knowledgeable and also always had my best interest in mind. He skillfully pointed out potential issues on property visits that could have cost ramifications for me to understand and include in my cost comparison. He also pulled extremely detailed comparison properties and included notes for each so I could clearly understand how we was arriving at the market value. I was amazed at how well he knew pricing within the Western suburbs even on a street by street basis since it varies so much with proximity to the Metra. He also knew I wanted to renovate the property and also pulled comps for post renovation condition so I could understand if it was going to be a good investment. He was very patient and supportive in helping me find my new home. He also was respectful and guarding of my personal time by providing feedback on properties to help thin down the options. When I was under contract but got some disturbing news at an inspection (by Dave the “Dream Killer” Inspector), Mike was 100% supportive that we move on and start looking again. He wasn’t trying to push me into buying something I wasn’t comfortable with anymore and I found that to be a indicator of his great character. If you are looking for an awesome agent that you can trust, always has your back and provides you with accurate information to make highly informed decisions, Mike is your guy. WARNING: If you don’t like to have fun and laugh, you should probably call someone else.”

“From the initial consultation to listing our property for sale, Mike was simply a top notch real estate professional. He blends a wealth of experience in the local market, a clear and well thought out understanding of the market for pricing, and proactive communication that helped to make the entire selling process seamless. He was always available to answer any questions along the way. He provided tremendous value in getting our house ready to be put on the market and did an amazing job promoting the listing and selling in a timely manner. Our definition of a 5 star realtor!”

“Mike Long made our first home-buying experience more enjoyable than my wife and I ever expected it would be. He is the perfect blend of industry expertise and amiability. Mike took the time to really understand our needs and our timeline. He patiently guided us through each step of the process and never once made us feel pressured to act until we were ready. He always made himself available to answer our endless questions and has a gift for proactively providing guidance on issues we hadn't considered. We couldn't be happier in our new home and wholeheartedly recommend Mike to anyone who needs the services of an expert realtor.”

“Mike Long is the perfect realtor if you are feeling unsure, confused, or nervous about the house hunt. Mike was patient through starts and stops in our home search, worked hard to understand what we were looking for, and educated us in all we would need to know to get through financing and be prepared to own our first home. We came into a confusing and challenging housing market, which Mike guided us through with humor and kindness. Mike became our friend, and we knew we could trust him to advocate for us throughout the process. My husband and I cannot recommend him enough and will be working with Mike again if we need to look for another home in the future.”
