Testimonials
The third house I have sold and first time working with Michael. I have never had a better experience or easier selling process. The level of professionalism, market knowledge and dedication to his clients surpasses that of any other Relator I have worked with. From start to finish he was able to handle everything quickly and efficiently. From stunning marketing photos, to marketing and handling the offer process I felt confident I was in good hands and consistent updates so I always knew what was happening. I was able to sell faster and get more than expected for my home than ever before. Buying or selling your home, there is no one better to put your trust in. He cares about his clients and building relationships. As a house flipper I have always bounced around with Realtors because I never felt like I was “getting my money’s worth”. I am glad that I found Michael, as I have found my Realtor for life!
Having Michael as our agent was like having a friend in the inside looking for a home for us. Very knowledgeable and professional. I will definitely recommend him! Thank you Michael, we love our HOME!
During an extremely chaotic 18 month window, Michael facilitated the sale of my dream home in Cascade; the purchase of a home in EGR (from a difficult seller, and in need of multiple improvements); then profitably selling that home within a year.
Michael was not only extremely professional and efficient, but also charming and caring. His attention to detail was impeccable. When we hit the unexpected glitches – along with a few surprises – Michael was there to handle the situation in a timely manner. He even helped me unpack, sort, and organize!
I have referred him to friends who have also appreciated his professionalism and ability to make major life changes with ease.
In regards to utilizing Michael Kooistra as a realtor, I highly recommend his services. I have worked with him to both buy and sell a home. When buying a home, it was several years ago when the housing market wasn’t doing well and banks could not process the sale of many homes in a timely manner. Michael stuck with us through 16 different offers before we finally got our home. It was an extremely frustrating situation and Michael remained positive throughout!
My family was recently offered an opportunity to relocate out of state. When I contacted Michael and mentioned we had to go through a relocation company he didn’t bat an eye. The relocation company was frustrating to deal with and wanted every document ever created. Michael dealt with it with ease. I was a bundle of anxiety trying to get ready to move out of state. Michael was very patient and reassuring even when I was not. With Michael’s work our home sold quickly and for a great price! I’m very grateful for all the hard work he has done on our behalf. If I ever get the chance to return to the West Michigan Area I know my first call will be to Michael Kooistra!
I had the pleasure to work with Michael for the first time. He was very helpful on the process and gave great ideas on how to make my condo ready for sale. He was able to negotiate a great deal for me on the final sale. I would recommend Michael and his team to anyone looking to list and sell their home. Great Job Michael!
I employed Michael to help me find a condo in the GR area. Michael is an expert in the field of real estate. He loves what he does and his knowledge and passion makes him one of the best. Michael was on top of every request that I made. He makes you feel like you are the only client he has. Michael wants what is best for his clients and will go the extra mile to help you find what you are looking for.
I have had the pleasure of Michael’s assistance for selling, purchasing and renting homes over the last 12 years. His excellent level of professionalism, his advocacy for his clients, his attention to detail and commitment to bringing a transaction to closing in a timely fashion are only a few of the reasons I keep returning for his services.
Michael, It was great working with you on our deal (104 Graceland). You were very easy and understanding, so that was much appreciated. I hope to work together again.
Michael Kooistra is a man of great integrity and dedication to his work. He knows the real estate business inside and out, cares about his clients and perseveres despite what sometimes seems to be insurmountable odds. He has an almost prophetic feel for the market and is not afraid to tell you like it is. Calm and confident under pressure, Michael succeeds where others can’t. We are so glad that we chose Michael Kooistra to sell our house and happily give him the highest recommendation.
The service Michael Kooistra provides is unmatchable. I found his honest and up front approach very refreshing. He was accessible to me, no matter what I needed, throughout the entire process. And made the experience fun and stress-free. I recommend him over and over again.
Michael was an excellent partner in finding the right property when we relocated from Chicago. He was very patient and attentive, as we desired to see a diverse range of homes in many different locations. We valued his honest input on neighborhoods and pricing and his ability to be available on a moment’s notice, if possible. He was not hesitant to go to bat for us when we placed offers on homes. He also has great support staff at his office if we required assistance while he was unavailable. We would use Michael as our realtor again and we highly recommend him!
My wife and I have now purchased two houses using Michael as our realtor and sold one house with him as well.
The process could not possibly gone smoother. He has an impeccable attention to detail and is consistently attentive to our specific desires.

Michael is honest and pressure free. Through all of our interactions he has been professional and a pleasure to work with. We have recommended him to several of our friends looking for a realtor and would do so again.

I have to tell you that I wish you could list every house I sell. Honestly in 14 years you are one of if not the best, most cooperative agents I have ever worked with. Thank you and your seller.
