Buying real estate is a complex matter and can be especially confusing for the first-time homebuyer. Do yourself a favor and learn as much about the process as you can before you begin. There are plenty of resources on the Internet, and most real estate offices will have pamphlets to explain things in plain language. You may also be able to research the real estate process by attending community-sponsored classes, or you can take a look at books like Home Buying For Dummies by Eric Tyson and Ray Brown, (IDG Books Worldwide, Inc.) Use a REALTOR(R). As a buyer, it usually costs nothing to hire a real estate professional to help you find and purchase a home--your Realtor will likely get a portion of the commission the seller pays to his Realtor. When choosing an agent, get referrals from friends, relatives, and co-workers, and then interview as many agents as possible. Pick an agent that works in the neighborhoods you're interested in. Listen to your agent, but make your own decision.

Highly Experienced, Incredibly helpful and friendly, Above and Beyond Expectations

Mike helped my wife and I (and 4 kids) move into our first home rather quickly despite the unfavorable market. He knew the VA Home Loan process and explained everything in great detail. All of our questions and needs were handled quickly. He went above and beyond what I expected from a realtor. Mike truly cares about his clients and their family. I can't put into words how thankful we were to have him as our realtor while purchasing our first home!

Great realtor-Mike Counts

Mike was great to work with in selling my moms condo. He really cared when it came to a lot of the details in this transaction. He communicated with me on a regular basis and always made me feel like I was his top priority. I would highly recommend Mike, as he is very knowledgeable and was always available to help make this a smooth process.

A once in a lifetime real estate agent

Let me tell you something. My wife and I were trying so hard to buy a home. This man went with us on facetime when we lived in another part of the country and did a visual inspection that went far beyond what we were used to by an agent. Mike is one of those individuals that truly cares for his clients. Everything from the inspection process to closing was done is such a delicate manner. When the inspection found issues Mike came up with a solution that worked amazingly by getting the seller to cover most of the home insurance to cover those repairs. What’s more he did all this while dealing with some personal issues. We were blessed and grateful for working with Mike Counts. As a Veteran this is the kind of service that military people truly apreciate. God bless you Mike and thank you for everything from the Babic family!

Mike - A Realtor Who Cares

Living in Minnesota, we were dependent upon a realtor who understood our needs. We had worked with Mike some years before on a home purchase in the Ankeny area, so when it came time to move back to the area, we turned, once again, to Mike's expertise. Having cultivated a relationship with Mike over the years, he knew what we would be looking for in a home. And he found a townhouse that fit our needs. Mike was a great communicator with us during the process - given that we were 4.5 hours away. The electronic paperwork was easy to do. Mike followed through on any problems that arose - and he handled those situations promptly and efficiently. From our initial contact to the day of closing, Mike guided us through the process. We would highly recommend Mike to be anyone's realtor.
