Michelle was wonderful to work with, we had a very short timeline to move out of our rental and into our first home in June of 2023. We were clueless. Michelle asked us what our budget, must haves and want-to-haves were and came up with many options for us to look at in a short matter of time. She was honest with her opinions on places we looked at as well as dug into the strata funds to ensure we were choosing a home that wasn’t going to end up with major issues. We appreciated Michelles attention to detail and fun positive attitude and would reach out again when/if we chose to move again.

What I love most is how collaborative she is — always open to ideas while offering great feedback. Together, we’ve transformed homes into stunning spaces that grab attention and sell fast. One of the best things about working with Michelle is her attention to detail and commitment to getting every aspect of a listing just right. Michelle’s energy, professionalism, and positive attitude make every project feel like a win. Partnering with Michelle Tomey and the Rethink Team makes every project exciting, and I can’t wait to collaborate again — it’s always a recipe for success!

I had the privilege of working with Michelle during the sale of my family home and the purchase of my new home, and I cannot thank her enough for her exceptional support and professionalism throughout the process. The sale of my home was tied to a marital separation, which, as one might imagine, made an already complex process even more challenging. Preparing, maintaining, and ultimately leaving a home filled with memories was emotionally difficult, but Michelle went above and beyond to make the experience as smooth as possible. From the beginning, Michelle was there every step of the way. She regularly checked in, provided practical tools like moving boxes, and even helped me declutter and organize my home, including clearing out the kitchen. Her advice on staging and preparing my home for viewings was invaluable and played a crucial role in achieving a quick and successful sale. Given the nature of the situation, we had to work with dual realtors, which introduced additional complexities. Michelle handled these challenges with grace and professionalism, navigating difficult circumstances with tact and ensuring effective communication with the other realtor. Her hands-on approach was truly remarkable. She loaned me equipment to tidy up my yard and the exterior of my home and personally checked in frequently to offer advice and encouragement. Michelle didn’t just provide guidance—she rolled up her sleeves and helped me every step of the way. When it came time to purchase my new home, Michelle continued to exceed my expectations. She spent countless hours viewing single- family homes and townhomes with me, always patient, supportive, and fully invested in helping me find the perfect place. She never rushed me, drove me to every appointment, and even treated me to lunch along the way. Her kindness and dedication were unwavering. Michelle has an incredible eye for detail and design, offering thoughtful curb appeal suggestions and ensuring that my needs were met in every way. She also provided helpful reminders about the legalities and paperwork involved in buying and selling, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. What stood out most was Michelle’s follow-through. She delivered on every promise, big or small. From arranging cleaners for both my old home and my new one to ensuring the transition was effortless, she consistently went the extra mile. On the day I received the keys to my new home—an emotional milestone—Michelle was there to celebrate with me. She even left a bottle of champagne in the fridge so we could toast this new chapter together. I am incredibly grateful to have had Michelle by my side during such a significant time in my life. Her expertise, compassion, and dedication made all the difference, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone navigating the sale or purchase of a home.

Michelle was a fantastic real estate agent - we really couldn't have asked for more! She was attentive, responsive, and so easy to work with. Michelle's strategic marketing and promotion efforts had us receiving verbal offers on the first day the listing was live. She supported us through the entire process, from the first listing appointment, through staging and pictures, hosting two open houses, and getting us an amazing offer. She was understanding and patient as we worked through the nerves of selling our home, and celebrated with us once everything was done. Thank you, Michelle, for your hard work in helping us achieve our real estate dreams!
