Testimonials

Hi Mike,

The task of purchasing a home is, needless to say, a daunting one, and even more so if one is a first time buyer, such as my husband and myself. A good home buying experience begins with having a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, dependable, determined, energetic, and most importantly, someone who is set on finding a home suitable to one’s needs, and within the budget of the couple in question. Mike Lefton embodies ALL of these qualities, plus more. It was through his extensive expertise that my husband and I have gained a better sense of what buying a home entails. Mike Lefton filled in all the gaps and addressed our questions with more than simple one-word answers.

Purchasing a home for the first time comes with mixed emotions: inexplicable happiness with a vast amount of stress. Mike made it his primary task to ensure the experience did not overwhelm us and turned what could have potentially been a negative experience into a positive. We are grateful for all he has done in aiding us to have our dream home and highly recommend him to anyone who would like to have a similar experience.



Sincerely,

Daniel and Janet Griffitts

My sister was a client of Mike's and I would like to give a testimonial regarding Mike's awesome help in finding a house for her. We were not familiar with Simi Valley and Mike was a fountain of information and guidance for us. I was there when he found the right house for her and presented the right opportunity to buy the perfect house. He met all her criteria. He was courteous, knowledgeable and confident, which made my sister and brother-in-law more assured in their purchase. He is a fantastic real estate agent. Thanks for all your help Mike! George

This thank you is long over due, it may be a little long winded but this is how I truly feel about my real estate experiences with you.

10 years I called several realtors whose name I obtained from the listing on the houses I was interested in seeing. Mike Lefton called me back within hours, the other realtors called a couple of days later or not at all. The following day I personally met Mike, when I first saw him I was a little hesitant in trusting him with such an important task of finding me a home. He looked so young! I thought this kid surely has no experience and he probably doesn't know the ropes of real estate. I didn't want to be rude so I went to see the house I had picked from the listing. We saw the house, as well as two other properties. Neither of these properties appealed to me, that weekend Mike called me back and said I have other houses I want to show you. I thought, I don't want to waste his time...but he said...I made some notes on the comments you had on the houses we saw and I think I know what you are looking for. I agreed to see those houses....wow...he was right, the houses he showed me were the type of floor plan I was looking for. Not only did he find the perfect home for me, he sold the home I was living in at the time, timing it all to perfection. Mike was so organized, followed through on everything, paid attention to details and my comments and he certainly knew his business. Boy was I wrong with my first impression, he never missed a beat and he sold and bought my home with no stress on me. This year I called Mike again; there was no hesitation this time. The great experience I had with him 10 years ago as my realtor repeated itself. He remembered my preferences, and again made the purchase of my new home a terrific one. This time, again, he went above and beyond in insuring I was purchasing the right home, helped me with the mortgage loan, escrow etc. He was just as I remembered him organized, committed, patient and now with 10 more years of experience (he still looks like a kid). He didn't just treat me as his customer; he made me feel like a friend and always looking out for my best interest. He knows Simi Valley like the back of his hand and he has all the necessary business connections which made this purchase experience a terrific one again.

Mike I can't thank you enough for all your effort in again finding the right home for me. It's been 5 months since we closed escrow and I could not be happier with my new home. You truly are a Real Estate Consultant For Life!

Testimonial:

I can't tell you how thrilled we were to have our house sell this past week. It was a difficult sale and it took a lot of hard work by our agent, Mike Lefton. It was a shortsale and we had a difficult tenant in the house which did not make the job any easier. I firmly believe the only reason the sale finally went through was due to Mike's tenacity and dedication to get the job done. He would not give up and was so determined to finish the sale, when I think other agents would have thrown in the towel. Thank you so much!

We were particularly pleased with Mike's attention to detail, timely responses, follow-ups, and professional due diligence. We are going to refer Mike to all of our friends and family because of the high quality service that he provided to us!
