Services when Listing

This is a great team and Michael has made a mark on the Real Estate Industry! Hats off to this guy whose lit a fire on how to really do real estate!

Michael and his team go above and beyond what any other agent I have had experience with does. The marketing knowledge they have to get your house sold quickly and for maximum value is outstanding. This is not a job for them, its a passion. I value and trust Michaels opinion and honestly wouldn’t go with another agent again. You will not be disappointed with the high level of excellence this team brings to every listing they have!

I have had the pleasure of working with Michael and the associate agents with the Michael McDougall team for over 8 years. As a home inspection professional for almost 20 years I have worked with hundreds of agents and performed thousands of inspections. I can tell you first hand that the level of professionalism and caring for clients can't be outmatched by this team of agents. They are dedicated to always making their clients the number one priority and bringing the best in industry expertise to every transaction. At AGHI inspections we pride ourselves in providing the best service and deliverables for our clients during and after our inspections. We value developing lasting relationships with our clients and industry partners. The Michael McDougall team shares those same values. I wholeheartedly recommend them for your next real estate purchase or sale. You're in good hands with the Michael McDougall team.

Mike and the entire McDougall team were amazing! We had a tight timeline during an unprecedented time and they kept the entire process stress free with a sold sign on our lawn in under a week! From start to finish they cover everything, paying attention to every detail, every need and ensuring you get the absolute best experience. The energy and passion that this team has truly shows how much they love what they do! Thank you so much for making this process stress-free and as smooth as possible!

Michael's enthusiasm for his clients is only matched by the stellar team that surrounds him. Every team member looks after the client like they're the most important person in the world, and the results speak for themselves. I've used Michael and his team members now for three real estate transactions, and I have been blown away each time by the service I receive. I can't recommend them enough: they are the real deal.

I have to begin by giving mention to my mom’s terrific neighbour; who happened to be Michael’s sister-in-law – who first gave me insight into your wonderful team. Upon meeting Michael, I knew instinctually that – not only would this daunting (to me) task of selling a home – be made with the utmost of professionalism; but also with a caring sensitivity. Michael was fully prepared with all the necessary facts and figures from the get-go; just as he was genuinely thoughtful and receptive to, what was, a difficult and personal event for me. Truly, from the moment I signed on with your team, any concerns and apprehensions disappeared. I was kept current without the slightest of worries. And it seemed within a blink - the house was sold. From beginning, to middle, to end, and to today - I maintain a whole-hearted and sincere appreciation to your team, who turned out to be a most lucky star within the Realty world. And especially since the onset of these precarious times that we continue to face; I want you to know that it is often that I give thanks to your team for coming into my life when you did and helping me to make the right decision for my family’s life. It isn’t just a decision for ‘in the moment’ – but also one for the future. And because of all of you, I continue to reap the reward of meeting you. One doesn’t forget people who bring that kind of capacity of expertise and depth to their clients – that continues long into the future. The gratitude is ongoing and authentic.

Highly recommend Bobbi, she was amazing to work with and we are so thankful to have had her as our realtor for our purchase. After only a week working with her, she found us our dream home that checked all of our boxes of what we wanted. We were faced in a multiple offer situation - and she guided us in making a strong offer that got us our home! Her negotiation skills were incredible, as she had a strong knowledge of the market. THANK YOU BOBBI for keeping our interests as your number one priority and getting us into the house of our dreams!

In the fall of 2017, my brother approached Michael McDougall regarding listing our mother’s 1950’s bungalow in Oshawa that had been her home for 59 years. Michael visited the home which was in original condition, had not been upgraded but was well maintained and on a large lot. Michael suggested a listing price based on his extensive knowledge of the market and his assessment of the house. Michael’s strategy was to sell the house in its “as is condition” after my mother had moved to a retirement home. His team provided modest staging, signage, the MLS listing, staffed the house for 2 or 3 days of open houses and counselled all brokers to “bring your best offer” as there would be no negotiations but simply the best offer would be accepted 1 week after the listing went on the market. Michael was particularly sensitive to the feelings and emotions of our 96 year old mother who was having a difficult time with the whole idea of selling the family home. His professional, candid and strategic advice made the entire transaction seamless. Michael and his team made several practical suggestions to our family related to the sale. Michael spoke personally with several agents and brokers who represented buyers submitting offers and kept us informed throughout the entire process. As a family we were invited to review offers at Michael’s office at the time offers were to close. Michael and one of his staff presented us with 20 excellent offers, the best of which was unconditional, had a large deposit, short closing date, and was significantly over the asking price. Between acceptance of the offer and closing, Michael’s staff was most helpful in addressing administrative issues between ourselves, the purchasers and their agents. We believe Michael and his team to be professional, knowledgeable, thorough, helpful and with a strong commitment to customer service.

We have purchased and sold houses with The Michael McDougal Team and each time had a great experience. The whole team works collaboratively to provide their clients with exceptional encounters. From the fantastic custom service, prompt responses to inquiries, professional negotiations with other buyers/sellers, to sealing the deal to get us what we wanted, we highly recommend The Michael McDougall Team.

Working with The Michael McDougall Team to find our first investment property was incredible! Their experience in the Durham region saved us from buying in the wrong areas and when it came time to put in an offer, they were savages, and went to work and advised us so well. They secured the property for us and our only regret is that we didn’t buy 5 more then.
