Michaels Ferro Wynn Ojai Real Estate Group - Ojai, California

Charlotte Massey

I had the pleasure of working with Char Michaels as my agent during one of the toughest periods of real estate markets for buyers, 2021 - 2022. When we first met, Char was very quick to get a sense of exactly what I was looking for in a new property. She was very prompt in providing me with updates when anything was listed, or soon to be listed, that fit my criteria. She was always very friendly, thorough and patient with every step of the process. Because of the tough market, we worked together for just over a year, and she maintained a high level of professionalism, engagement and connection throughout our time together. Once we found the right house for me, Char was an expert with navigating all aspects of the purchase from start to finish. Her level of communication and consistency made the process very smooth for both me, the buyer, and the seller's agent. I would highly recommend Char to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. She has a wealth of experience and a high degree of finesse with navigating all aspects of real estate.

We highly recommend the Michael + Associates Real Estate Group in Ojai, specifically Char Michaels and her staff. They are thorough and competent in the technical process of buying and selling. Char showed impressive creatively in marketing as well. But what we appreciated the most was, even though we were not selling a high-end property, we were treated as if we were. The service was first rate with extraordinary attentiveness and professional grace. Our recent transaction, and we’ve had many in less regulated times, was as near flawless as possible. Thank you Char and all.

Char Michaels deserves high compliments for her expertise. She and her two colleagues that I had the pleasure of working with, had the knowledge and professionalism to advise me in getting my home ready and on the market. Their advice was sound and any critiques were gentle. They communicated every step of the way. Overall, the experience was trouble free and pleasant!

Char helped us buy our first house and we couldn't have had a better realtor on our home buying team! She expertly guided us through the process by providing complete transparency at every step while also giving the seasoned advice that comes only from a local agent with 35 years of experience. It has been a few months since we worked together and looking back at all the critical decisions with the benefit of hindsight we wouldn't have done anything differently. Being first time buyers we reached out often for advice and recommendations for other local professionals. She always responded quickly and cheerfully and each recommendation turned out better than we could have imagined. In the end we got an amazing home at the right time at a fair price through an effortless process. No matter the situation, whether it's buying your first home or what you plan to be your last, you could do no better in Ojai than with Char!

Char and her team were invaluable in helping us to sell our home quickly in a difficult market. From getting us ramped up with staging, to helping us find providers to do necessary preparation, to marketing our place in all the current formats, the team was both professional and highly skilled.

We particularly liked the team approach which covers various areas of real estate expertise. We hadn’t bought or sold a house in over 20 years and appreciated their long term experience and current market awareness.

Highly recommend!

We are incredibly grateful to Char Michaels of Michaels + Associates for representing us in the sale of our historic landmark home. We are extremely pleased that she connected us with the perfect buyer to carry on protecting an important piece of architectural history. We also appreciate the buyer / seller relationship she created and maintained throughout the transaction. Char and her team were always there to guide us through every step of the process. We give Char our highest recommendation.

Char Michaels is a wonderful realtor to work with. She advised me on preparing the house for sale and arranged for the photographer, house, termite and septic tank inspectors. All of the paperwork was handled efficiently and professionally. All I had to do was sort through things and pack and she even recommended people to help with that. My house sold within a week for the asking price plus! I'd recommend her in a heartbeat.

Char Michaels is one of the best brokers I’ve dealt with. She is straightforward, honest and gets the job done. Her team is highly connected to other professionals and has an abundance of contacts in any real estate transaction. She knows Ojai like the back of her hand, has her finger on the pulse of everything on the market and knows exactly “what time it is.” I highly recommend Char and her team for any purchases and would certainly use her again - and that’s the best testimonial!
