Heather and her team were a dream to work with, making the process easy and efficient…read more Heather had worked with our daughter and her wife to build their home. She's now worked with us to buy a home nearby. She navigated partners in different states, conducted both virtual and in-person showings, and negotiated with patience, skill and a sense of humor. Heather managed it all perfectly even when the property's zoning led to a change in our approach. Her expertise kept us on target and we closed as planned. As buyers, we're making life decisions in a business transaction. Heather and her team understands that -- she knew what this property meant to our family and it's now home. We're 100% satisfied and highly recommend Heather.

My wife and I had a great experience working with Heather. While not first time homebuyers, we were…read morenew to buying in Michigan. Heather met up with us ahead of time and reviewed the process and explained some details that were different in MI. The housing market was tough, but Heather helped us to understand our options for making a strong and competitive offer. She was helpful and patient with our concerns, and always quick to respond and give relevant information. While we never got the opportunity to meet Jamie, we appreciated the team approach and felt great knowing that there would always be someone there to answer questions or show us a property. The closing process went smoothly and we appreciated the responsiveness and communication of Heather's team. We highly recommend Heather if you're looking to purchase or sell a home.

I have sold over ten homes over the years and was immediately impressed with Kellie's technice when…read moreshe sold a friend's property. I recently used her to sell my duplex in grand rapids, and can't recommend her expertise enough. Kellie's ability to see what small improvements will net big returns is an asset I was very grateful for. Just her clever use of escalation clauses alone netted me enough to buy a performance car after closing. It was nice to feel so secure leaving such a life changing decision in the hands of someone so capable, and kind. Kellie used her knowledge to not only get the best price, but also look for workable solutions for all parties during the complex process of closing on a property.

My partner and I moved from out of state with the dream of buying our first home in Grand Rapids…read more As first-time homebuyers, we barely knew where to start. Before we had even walked our first open house, Kellie broke down the complex (sometimes convoluted) process of home-buying into digestible parts on a short call. Kellie's expertise became the lens through which we looked at every financial scenario over the next few weeks, and she carefully guided us through every aspect of the process. Having an advisor with roots in the community and across the city was also invaluable; her wide personal and professional network came in handy many times, and we simply can't imagine going through this process without the tools that Kellie has in her toolbox. On top of her industry knowledge and connections, Kellie's calm demeanor, unshakeable professionalism, responsiveness, foresight, and her goal-oriented attitude created a safe place for us to navigate the huge decision making required when buying a home. Kellie was always prepared for every meeting and every open house, and she always had insight on remaining competitive in a market that was tough for young buyers. Having Kellie on our team made the process feel exciting and manageable, even when curveballs were thrown our way. We would absolutely recommend Kellie to anyone purchasing or selling, whether in the west Michigan area or beyond.

I have had a professional relationship with BluHouse properties in the past. I teach Real Estate…read morelicense law and have taught several of their agents. Unlike private landlords renting their own properties, a property manager is licensed and regulated by the Michigan Board of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons. They must adhere to the law as well as the more strict "Code of Ethics". In the event of mishandling of funds a property manager is subject to fines, restitution and jail. Not worth "stealing $50".

One day randomly my boyfriend and I were staring at the rent prices increasing in Eastown and…read moredecided to look at houses for sale. We weren't looking too seriously, but thought it might be a good investment. A home in Heritage Hill really caught our attention and we had spammed realtors for a showing with no reply- except for Santiago from Blu House. Since the day we met Santiago he has always laid down the facts, came up with kick-ass creative solutions, and always went out of his way to make sure we had an edge in this chaotic competition of attempting to buy a home in GR. Now we're buying a home, about a month later from the day we started looking. Blu House as a whole real estate agency has taken care of us, been honest, and found professionals for us so our naive innocent perspectives wouldn't be a disadvantage (and our money stayed in our pockets!) I cannot tell you how much I love this business and how they approach what they do. I know at any time I could text my realtor and get an answer to whatever question I have. I know I will always get honesty through facts, and always a rational way of approaching a problem. I recommend them to everyone in this city. Support our awesome friends and neighbors :)

We used the Lucas Howard Group to help us sell our home in 2016. We were in a neighborhood where…read morewe had homes values drop. The listing agents came to our home and gave us a low, middle, and high market average price for homes that had sold in our neighborhood. We were motivated to sell, and we were encouraged to price it at the average price. Our home sold in 1 week with multiple offers. Imagine our surprise when we sold our home for 8% more than it had been listed for! If you are selling, buying, or investing in Real Estate I would highly recommend using this team!

Such a flawless experience. The communication was effective and she made it feel like we were her main priority. I can't believe how fast our home sold once it was on the market (4 days). The professional photography and the staging brought in the traffic which brought in offers. Above and beyond our expectations for sure. Thank you so much.

Trisha (and her husband Scott) was a great realtor for us. We were looking for a home in a very…read morehot real estate market (homes selling in 3 days - some even before listing). We were also pretty choosy about what and where we wanted to be. Trisha was very responsive and focused on us the whole time, never pushing us outside our preferences, but also offering the 'real world' perspective too as a reality check. Once we did find a winning home we made an offer, and then ... trouble hit! It felt like every three days we'd get another phone call that something else had gone sideways on our deal (usually finding unexpected deficiencies with the house). Trisha was swift to respond and help manage the situation - taking tons of logistics and pressure off our plate as she recommended and scheduled contractors to help us solve all the issues. In the end we were able to close on the home and we are very pleased with the end result. I highly recommend Trisha.
