We just sold our Tacoma home with Michael Duggan, and I have to tell you - he's practically perfect in every way. He's like the Mary Poppins of real estate agents. I enjoyed best how knowledgeable and thorough he was, without ever being pushy. Also, we loved Michael's genuine, trustworthy nature. He was chill, thoughtful, and enthusiastic in just the right ways. I would 100% recommend him to friends and family, especially professional folks in their 30s-50s. His wife, Gretchen, also added a lot of heart and soul into the marketing surrounding the sale. (A++ would sell with again.) read more

As a former Real Estate Agent and a marketing professional, I can tell you I am glad we made the right decision to work with Michael to sell my mother's townhome. I had MANY great agents to choose from that I personally know and follow online that I could have introduced to my Mom. Michael's marketing really stood out. It was fresh, clean and told a story about the home he was listing and the surrounding community. He brought the same marketing to my mother's property and got her top dollar for the property. Michael was easy to communicate with via phone, text & email. He was open to suggestion on the marketing pieces. Michael and his wife got their hands dirty to help get the home ready for the market. He had the right contacts to get the house in tip top shape (staging, cleaning, painting, window-pane replacement, etc). I would not hesitate to recommend Michael Duggan to be your next real estate agent if you are looking to buy or sell real estate in Tacoma, WA. read more

Michael was super helpful in finding us the perfect home. We were relocating from out of state, making it difficult to see houses regularly. Michael went out of his way to record the house walkthroughs and talk us through any questions we had. Michael was very knowledgeable in helping us through ESCROW and negotiation process, and upon completion made us feel very welcome to the area with a guide, and some gifts to keep the house warm in the winter. As a first time buyer, I would highly recommend Michael as a Realtor. read more

Michael Duggan is an excellent human being and a fantastic real estate agent. I've sent several of my friends to Michael and they always have great things to say about his patience, expertise, and tenacity. He really cares about people. In such a fast moving market it's great to work with someone who has your best interests in mind, and Michael is that kind of guy. If you're looking for a real estate agent who knows Tacoma well, understands rehabs and construction, cares about his community, and who has your back- this is your agent. read more

Michael Duggan helped us buy a home in Fircrest, WA in February of 2020. Our search took place over more than 6 months and we explored various properties around Tacoma, ultimately seeing over 30 homes. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions, and Michael was the ideal guide to navigate us through the process. A few things stand out about our experience working with him: He's reliable and trustworthy. He never missed an appointment with us and was always on time. He kept his word, planned ahead, and even when we weren't reliable he was able to shift and adapt to accommodate us. Michael is uber-responsive and efficient. Whether a late night text conversation, or sending a market analysis, he communicated quickly and effectively. Our first offer wasn't accepted, but we did make a back-up offer that was. And if you've bought a house before you know it's an emotional roller coaster. Michael's demeanor helps to smooth out those bumps and we appreciated having someone level-headed and optimistic by our side. Overall we were really pleased with our experience and thankful for a knowledgeable and empathetic guide. You won't regret working with Michael and Gretchen. read more

After working with Michael to purchase a home, I just worked with him to sell a property. He was great on the buying side, but his true magic is as a selling agent. He was there every step of the way - from the logistics to the little things. He changed light bulbs, mowed the tiny lawn, and kept on all of the many contractors. I never felt like I had to worry about anything. And my house sold quickly for more than I originally thought it would. Could not be happier! read more

If you are looking for someone to assist you in navigating the Tacoma real estate market, look no further! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michael to any of our friends or family making a similar move to the area. My wife and I recently purchased our first home with Michael's assistance after several unfruitful years of trying to get our foot in the door up in the King County market. Throughout the entire process of visiting properties and weighing our options, Michael was exceptionally patient and thorough in explaining every possible contingency to us. When we finally found a house we were comfortable placing an offer on, and it was accepted, we started down the crazy rabbit hole of renegotiating contingencies when the home inspection revealed that the place was in need of numerous, very costly, repairs that the sellers were either unwilling or unable to accommodate us with prior to closing. Due to this there were several times that we were ready to throw the towel in on negotiations, but Michael was able to walk the tightrope between us and the other party, bring them back to the table, and keep the deal alive. Michael has great discretion in reading people, and the finesse to say what needs to be said in the best possible light. Put him to work for you, and you won't regret it. One of the biggest headaches that comes with moving to a new area is establishing a network of contractors you can trust to give you a fair shake when doing the repairs or remodeling necessary to make that house a home. Michael has proven himself invaluable in this regard time and time again by pointing us to the needles in the haystack of potential candidates, and saved us thousands of dollars, and hours of grief, in the process. read more

Michael was incredible to work with. In a time when the real estate market was especially hectic, we were able to look at houses, find one we both loved, and immediately get to work setting the wheels in motion. He was incredibly responsive and was able to work with the sellers to get a number of additional requests completed before we moved in. With Michael's help we found the perfect home for us, and felt confident at every step of the process. I could not possibly rate him highly enough. Where is the 6th star? :) read more

My wife and I recently bought our first house ever and we have Michael and his amazing team to thank for that! After speaking with multiple realtors, Michael definitely stood out to us. As this was our first time buying, Michael was incredibly patient and answered all of our questions about how the process of home buying works and how he would work with us. We could not have been happier with our experience. Michael was great at communicating and coordinating with us, our lender and the seller agents. Any time we wanted to check out properties he was right there with us or had a member of his team ready to accommodate us. As we viewed homes he was very knowledgeable and saw a lot a things we wouldn't have noticed. It was great working with someone who wants to work with you. It seemed our goals became his and he never pushed us in any direction we didn't want to go. Michael was a great calming factor and helped give us confidence even in this aggressive market when we were working on a limited budget. We were so happy to find a beautiful starter home in Tacoma and Michael was great at setting up the inspection appointments and helping us negotiate a proper deal with the seller. Getting the keys to our home is a moment we will never forget and always cherish. We would recommend Michael to anyone without hesitation. read more

Michael Duggan is a class act agent! The house that Michael helped us sell was an estate sale due to my father passing away suddenly. My sister, mother, and I were (and are still) dealing with our grief and needed someone who was capable, thorough, and tenacious to take us through the process of selling a home that had been in our family for almost 40 years. Michael walked us through what we could expect to get for the home and what we should do to fix it up to make it super appealing to buyers (new paint, a myriad of repairs, staging). Thanks to his savvy we had a multiple offer situation, and when the first offer fell through due to unforeseen issues with the house, Michael was smart enough to have already signed the second buyers up as back up buyers. He moved us smoothly into a transaction with the second buyers and negotiated a second round of updates that would seal the deal. Throughout the sale of the house Michael enlisted and negotiated with agents, buyers, electricians, oil tank specialists, plumbers, roofers, cleaners, sewer scope peeps, and more. He was forthright in his communication and kept me in the loop through everything, even though I live in California. He is overall just a really kind, amazing human being. Case in point, Michael left flowers and wine for the new owners even though he represented the sellers. I highly recommend Michael for anyone interested in buying/selling in the Tacoma area. He will go above and beyond for you! read more

Michael helped my husband and I purchase our first home. Michael is from Gig Harbor and currently resides in North Tacoma so he really knows the Tacoma area well, which is where we looked at homes and eventually purchased our home. What I liked most about working with Michael is that he is very genuine and really cared about finding the right house for us, he wasn't pushy at all. He provided us with a lot of information throughout the home buying process, but he never tried to persuade us with his opinion. He made purchasing the home OUR decision. He was very patient with us throughout the entire search and was very responsive whenever we contacted him. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Tacoma area and we would definitely use him again if we either buy or sell a home. read more

From the moment you meet Michael you can relax, he has everything under control. He is very personable, professional and trustworthy. After searching the Tacoma market for about a month I got a text telling me he'd found a for sale by owner property that looked like a good option for me, before I could get back to him he was already calling the number to vet the listing. Who does that? Well Michael does. Once the deal was underway, he was fantastic at communicating and thought of things I never would have. He was a real pleasure to work with. If you're searching for a realtor, give Michael a call, he'll take great care of you. read more

My husband and I recently bought our first home and we were grateful to have Michael's expertise help us through the process. He is a genuinely caring person and we immediately felt comfortable working with him. Michael was patient with our questions, explained every step and contingency clearly and put us at ease through the whirlwind of the home buying process. When we found a home we fell in love with, he helped us craft a strong offer that was accepted in a multiple offer situation. After closing, Michael continued to be awesome with thoughtful "welcome home" gifts, giving us lots of fun suggestions to help us explore our new city, and recommending a fantastic handyman for addressing a few needed repairs. I know that he will continue to be a really great resource for anything home-related in the future. If you are looking for an all around awesome agent who really knows Tacoma and real estate in general-- I couldn't recommend anyone more highly. read more

Honestly, there aren't enough words to describe how great Michael is and how fantastic he is at his job. He's the most customer-focused and professional agent I've worked with. He was a complete advocate for us in every step of the process. Being unfamiliar with the area we put our complete trust in him to find the home that meets our needs, and he did so flawlessly with the utmost professionalism and sense of urgency. He was extremely patient and flexible with us through several months of searching and countless home showings with our 5-year-old child (not an easy task!!). He also knew what it would take to land a home in such a hot market so when we found the perfect one he deftly and expediently did whatever it took to make sure we got it all while being completely professional and ethical. I've worked with many realtors over the years and Michael is head and shoulders a cut above the rest. If we could clone him and replace all other realtors with him we'd do it! Seriously though, he's the best, and you can rest comfortably knowing you're in the best of hands. read more

Michael always kept us informed, always returned our calls and responded in a timely manner. He always kept the ball rolling and volunteered to help us in any way that we needed. If we sell or buy again, no question, he will be our agent! Thanks for you help. Couldn't have done it without you! read more
