What is my home worth?

“Having a person that represents your interests makes all the difference in purchasing real estate. I explained to Michael that I wanted to buy an income property at a reasonable price. We found a property; and he negotiated through three purchase agreements. At every junction, he encouraged me to not raise my offering price. This paid off, as I ended up buying the property for $70,000 less than the asking price. His organized, pragmatic style makes him an excellent negotiator. I would highly recommend him and will use his services again for future real estate transactions!”

“Thanks to Michael Dickman for helping us find the perfect home. His familiarity with Santa Barbara neighborhoods helped us to make the right choice for us. He is attentive, knowledgable, professional and follows thru on every detail and beyond . I would highly recommend working with him for any real estate needs!“

“Not only did he get an excellent price for our old home, but he negotiated and even better price for the condominium we bought. Mike did it all, from staging our home himself, to deep cleaning it for the new buyers. Ours was a double contingency transaction and Mike's tenacity in seeing both contingencies to completion was more than exemplary. He was calm, reassuring and supportive through both processes. We felt that we had more than a real estate agent working for us. We had an ally and a friend who kept our best interests foremost. My wife just read the above, agreed and added ‘He's a true gem.’“

“Michael is an absolute super star and wonderful to work with. He went above and beyond to support my husband and I navigate the challenging real estate market. Michael is always on point, has a vast network and is highly strategic in his approach and negotiations. We cannot recommend Michael highly enough! Thank you again Michael.”

“Mike has helped us buy and sell three properties in Santa Barbara over the past 3 years. Because his energy, knowledge of our local market, and real estate expertise was so impressive after the first sale, we called on him to facilitate our next 2 transactions. Mike was not only reliable but also available to us 24/7. We will use him again in any future real estate dealings and we recommend him to others.”

"Michael did an outstanding job in helping me with the purchase of my townhouse. He was extremely knowledgable, respectful, and most helpful in every step of the transaction. I had been looking for a long while and he helped me with patience in every detail. I would highly recommend Michael for the purchase or sale of any home. He was so easy to work with and was always available for questions or support along the way. On a scale of 1-10 Michael deserves one hundred.”

"Michael worked tirelessly to help us find the perfect home for our family. He is extremely responsive and kept us informed throughout the entire experience. He made every effort to reduce the stress of the home buying process and made it clear he had our best interests in mind every step of the way. Michael is an amazing realtor and we would recommend him to anyone trying to buy a home, especially in a tough market, where his local knowledge and expertise was a great asset during the purchase of our house.”

“Michael went above and beyond helping us purchase our first home. He is an expert negotiator, gave us regular updates and helped us keep track of all our action items. My wife and I could not recommend Michael more! If you want to buy in Santa Barbara, you want to work with Michael.”

"Mike helped us to both purchase our very first home and to later sell the same home. He is very knowledgeable and has a great network in Santa Barbara. Mike wore many hats while the house was on the market and made sure everything was neat, on time and running smoothly. He was very responsive and always showed up on time if not early. He was very organized and kept us on-track by proactively having all the paperwork ready and signed prior to each step which expedited our process. These all were key to a speedy escrow process of only three days! It was a great pleasure to work with Mike. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their house.”

"Thank you so much for all the hard work and gusto you put in to getting the condo sold. We are super happy with everything and couldn’t have asked for a better team."

“Michael has been very helpful and patient with us in our search for a house. He was very professional and always quick getting back to us with all our questions. We can highly recommend him for anyone looking for a house - you will be in very good hands.“

“Let me say it simply: you want this realtor! Michael is the best I have ever worked with, he is incredible and nobody is as connected to the Montecito market like him. He found me properties not yet on the market, he knows every selling agent personally and was able to get me information not readily available. And here is the kicker: it was his advice that was the reason I won our bid. I mean it, I followed his advice exactly and we won BECAUSE of him. And, the guy is just so dang wonderful to work with. He went ABOVE and BEYOND the call of duty to help, and I have a feeling that is not specifically for me, it is just who he is. If you need somebody to find you a home in the Montecito/Santa Barbara area, do yourself a solid and ping Michael. You will be forever grateful that you did.”

“It all started with a simple online search where I would never thought that I would be connected to Mike Dickman, an angel that came in my way to help me to achieve my biggest dream: to be a California (SB County) home owner! I was a first time buyer and Mike went out of his way to make the whole process to be very smooth and as fast as possible. From making any phone calls to HOA management, Escrow Company, Lender Company, Home inspection provider and even searching for a professional electrician! Also, he made himself available to join me and give me any support while signing all closing documents. Mike Dickman is a very honest realtor with great knowledge of this business and very responsive; he would always get back to my texts, emails and phone calls, and trust me, there were many. I cannot say enough about how great experience I had doing business with such an amazing professional and person.“

“Michael was absolutely amazing to work with. He is well-versed in the industry and neighborhood and was extremely detailed in handling our first home buying experience. He managed everything from start to finish, and we can truly say that we wouldn't have gotten this house without him. We would highly recommend him to anyone in the area looking for a home and hope to one day work with him again!”

“We have had little experience with realtors, but Michael Dickman was everything great that we could imagine! He offered assistance through every step of the way during our home-buying process. He was familiar with the MHP where we bought our new home, and worked with the management there to help us complete paperwork required by the management (it was inconvenient for us to meet in person). He helped us get a deal at less than asking price, without us having to make concessions to the seller. He was always available to answer our numerous questions. Mr. Dickman was an excellent choice for us, and we believe he would be a great choice for anyone.“

“Michael is not just an amazing realtor, but an awesome person! He is beyond helpful and goes out of his way to ensure all your needs are met! He is incredibly knowledgeable, very resourceful, and well connected to the community!“
