We first became aware of TJ after he sent a letter to us in Texas. Very proactive, looking for business. He had obviously researched vacant property around Empire Michigan and was looking for a client. We had been seeking a realtor to utilize for the sale of our property, and it seemed that TJ might be a good fit. We reached out to him on a Saturday and he immediately contacted us. We gave him the property information and he created the write up and had our property listed by Monday afternoon. It was sold on the following Friday. A wonderful write up that really grabbed your attention and appropriate placement on multiple sites . Great job, great realtor. If you’re looking for a go-getter who interacts and is highly responsive, TJ would be a great choice.

TJ was a pleasure to work with. We were looking for our dream homesite in one of the most beautiful parts of Michigan. TJ's knowledge of the area and local real estate market were essential to our purchase. He was patient as we worked through candidate properties, and listened to our feedback, providing options that matched our needs. Always quick to answer our questions, TJ helped guide us to a property that was perfect. I can honestly say that we would not have found or purchased our property without TJ's insider knowledge of the area. We couldn't be happier.

It was a pleasure working with TJ. We purchased property to build a cottage about four hours away from our current home. He made the long distance process very easy. He worked hard locally to gather info and address concerns we had about the property. He was always accessible, even while out of state on business himself.

Testimonial in support of TJ Shimek, Realtor, of Serbin Real Estate TJ Shimek took time to learn who I was as a buyer and he showed me relevant options right from the get go, and I enjoyed learning that he is a very good listener. My experience with TJ tells me that he regularly sends out progress updates – even when nothing at all has happened, which as anyone purchasing today knows is just part of the deal. But TJ's upbeat professional style stood out even more during these times and reassured me, a novice buyer, that all was well. The result: I now own a great property in an ideal spot. For me it is truly a dream come true. It should also be said that TJ delivers excellent basic customer service; in fact, I couldn't be happier with the service and consideration TJ Shimek demonstrated during the search and purchasing process. Friendly, patient, not pushy, considerate, consistent. Problem solver. That's TJ Shimek of Serbin Real Estate. Reach to him if you need help buying and/or selling your home or piece of property.

TJ was always polite and helpful. Return calls quickly. Kept me informed. I was impressed on how prepared he was when first came to the house with the research he had done. I will definitely use him again!

TJ is an extraordinary person. His local market knowledge and understanding the purchasing decision process of buyers is remarkable. TJ assisted us in a recent long distance purchase of a fractional property. He researched my purchase questions and shared Face Time viewing of the property. He also kept track of property showings that gave us keen insight into finalizing our offer and decision to purchase. Highly recommend him!

The best part of working with TJ is that it seemed like he was ALWAYS available. If I had questions about a potential property, what was a god deal, or even the closing and financing process after finding our home, TJ was always happy to help. His attention to detail and overall customer service is unmatched. I strongly recommend TJ......11 out of 10.

TJ is a very knowledgeable agent and did a great job selling our property. He listed our townhouse quickly and then ended up getting 5 offers and closing at $30,000 over our asking price. We were very pleased with TJ’s professionalism and attention to detail. I would highly recommend him as a real estate agent to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

TJ is a great person to work with. He is well connected, quick to respond, and overall a realtor you can trust. He listed my house at a great price and had 3 above asking offers after a weekend open house that he hosted. We were under contract in less than a week and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thank you, TJ!

TJ was outstanding - great local knowledge and incredibly responsive. He spent a significant amount of time with me helping to find the right house. He was very patient and spent nearly a year helping to research multiple residences before finding the perfect house

TJ responded to an inquiry we made on a property over a year ago, and although we did not make an offer on that home, he kept in communication with me about other potential properties and when I found something of interest, he was quick to send me more information or take a phone call about it. He was patient with us and the market as we kept circling back to our original intention of a place to buy. His willingness to be responsive and available really helped us with the entire process that culminated in us finding and making an offer on our very own getaway spot in our very favorite part of the state. His knowledge of the area, the process, and the history really made the difference for us in getting our offer accepted, which is saying a lot in this market! We would highly recommend TJ Shimek as your real estate broker and representative.
