I've recently sold my Ann Arbor home with Nate as my agent, and let me assure you that Nate is the…read morereal deal. If you're reading this review, you must be where I was a couple of months ago-trying to get a sense of which agent will be your greatest advocate in your real estate transaction. I met with several real estate agents in my search and decided to go with Nate. I'm so glad that I did. The first thing I noticed was Nate's honest appraisal of my situation. He didn't try to up-sell me or promise me the world; his advice was earnest and reflected his years of experience in the Ann Arbor market. I was living 2,000 miles away in California while the house was on the market. But with Nate as my agent, I was always in the loop. Texts, emails, home checkups, phone calls-- he was always available for my questions and to give his recommendations. Nate's a "Full Service" Real Estate Agent-- and he exceeds his reputation. It should have been difficult to sell your house from the other side of the country. Nate made it a breeze. His price recommendation was right on the money. As a negotiator, he was able to work with the buyers to get any issue resolved quickly. With his help, I was even able to complete the transaction remotely. But as an agent, he went well above any expectations I had. Allow me to share a story with you. At the house I've had stuff stashed in storage in the basement for years. Photos, books, personal knick knacks. When the house closed, Nate and his wife drove to the house to sort, pack, and then deliver my things to my parents' home over an hour away. WHO DOES THAT?? I was blown away by the level of service. Let me say that Nate Foerg is an absolute professional. Like you, I found him on Yelp. But his rating and reviews on here are well deserved. The guy truly goes above and beyond. And if I ever decide to return to Ann Arbor, he'll be the first person I call. I hope you do too.

The response on this review is incorrect. Unfortunately instead of accepting their mistake and…read moreapology they justify their mistakes and this is the theme with the general manager, my agent and this response here. Again my agent gave me WRONG information. I am attaching a picture of his text and you can see that clearly he did not know about our non- homestead tax until July. The picture is for after I confronted him that the initial information he gave me was incorrect. Also we wrote our own objection letter with ZERO advice or help from our agent. He just shared our letter with the seller and did not negotiate those items, We Did. He even had no idea we are getting a new furnace. I told him that if he asked about that in advance we would pay the difference to install a high efficiency furnace rather than an 80% and he admitted he had no idea. Our agent tried to accommodate our constraints when it came to giving us tours. After we withdrew from our first offer (since the house turned out to be modular in the inspection), many texts and calls went unanswered or were answered really late. we value knowledge and considering Buyer's benefit in a buyer's agent (rather than early closing) unfortunately our relator John did not fully meet our expectation in that regard. If you are okay with receiving the wrong information you can choose them. Below I describe our experience with our agent : For the property that we purchased, I noticed the high taxes and asked him about the reason before making an offer. He mentioned it is because the property is non-homestead and we can change this status right after closing to prevent higher taxes. Given his incomplete and in my mind false information, I thought we can homestead the property and avoid high taxes right after closing. When I reviewed the taxes around the closing time I noticed that we are paying the high taxes and told him about miss informing me. He mentioned that it is only a three-month extra tax until Dec +/-$700 and was not worth negotiating. Again he was wrong because I called the township and noticed that the summer tax is still non-homestead and I cannot change that until July of next year. Long story short, either he genuinely did not know about this tax issue or he misinformed us. Both of which are unacceptable for an experienced realtor.

We would definitely recommend her to others!

If I could put no stars I would.

If she felt her listing price was too low she should have listed it for the right value, not try to start a bidding war. On another note...she only had one recommendation for us to use as an inspector should we have wanted an inspection. She gives this person plenty of business so why would he honestly try to look for any defects that would crush the deal or make her renegotiate. Be forewarned! Let the buyer beware (of her).

This is strictly a review of DIANE HUDZIK!…read more I was introduced to Diane by a family friend. I was a bit nervous as this was my first home purchase. I was surprised by how incredibly personable, attentive, and flexible Diane was during our first meeting, which was on a Sunday morning. Right away, she addressed our concerns and needs. We even went to see two homes that afternoon. We were able to reach Diane by phone, e-mail, and by text. We NEVER had any communication issues- Diane was always prompt to respond, and that's only if she already wasn't one step ahead of you by e-mailing you answers to questions you hadn't even thought of yet. During home showings, she pointed out areas which concerned her that we didn't pick up on, which I was very thankful for. She recommended several contingencies to put into the contract when we found the right home to ensure that we were protected. Her advice were honest, unbiased, and clear. During closing, Diane was with us during the entire process. The seller actually told us that there was another offer on the table- the only reason the seller chose to us was because of Diane's courteous and professional demeanor. If she's in the business next time we buy a house, I know exactly who I'll be calling. If you're in the South East Michigan area and you're looking for a realtor, she's the one.
