When I began the search for a realtor to help us find our dream cabin in Angel Fire, I was hoping to find an agent like my Father. I wanted a realtor who was honest, very knowledgeable of the properties he or she was selling and committed to acting in my best interests. I found all those characteristics in Michael Stille. You can depend on Michael for an honest answer to any question you have. There is no realtor spin. He tells it like it is. He is very knowledgeable of the Angel Fire area and the particulars of homes in that area. He knows and understands views, drainage, foundations, plumbing, heating, roofs, windows, walls, and driveways. In fact he knew or knows many of the builders, may have sold them materials before he became a realtor, and observed a number of the homes being built. He has lived in the community for several decades. He was patient with us and in a short period of time he understood exactly what we were looking for. We lived hundreds of miles away during most of the period we were searching, but we could confirm in a quick email whether or not a home that popped on the market was worth further investigation. When our home finally popped up, he knew about it before it even hit the market. We had developed so much confidence in Michael that we did our “walk thru “ by FaceTime on his iPhone. It was thorough. He walked the property, took us into every nook and carney in the home, crawled into the crawl space to show us the plumbing and furnace, and then helped us secure the bid. He represented our best interests throughout the closing process. We knew we were in good hands. We could not have been happier and we give Michael Stille and our highest recommendation.
