Buyer reviewThank you Laurel for helping us buy our first house! Our 2 children love it and Cristina and could not be more happy. Thank you for everything you've done for us!
-
Seller reviewWe chose Laurel Maki after talking with two other real estate agencies. As soon as Laurel started talking I knew she understood our needs and concerns. She was great to work with throughout the process and always kept us informed about what was happening. She is part real estate agent and part cheerleader. I will actually miss talking to her so often now that our house has sold.

Buyer reviewLaurel Maki was quick to respond to questions. She was knowledgeable and polite. She knows the Keweenaw area well. She was able to tell us where to be careful when doing a walk through of a home.

Buyer reviewLaurel Maki has many years of experience in real estate, and this was very helpful for answering our questions and pointing out things about places we toured. She knew what we were looking for in a home, and kept us updated on new listings, and responded promptly to our requests to see available properties. I am very happy that she was our buyer's agent, she worked hard for us to help us find the home we wanted.

Seller reviewLaurel Maki worked very hard for years to help with the sale of this property. It was a very unique property and took a while to find the right purchaser. She was very determined to get this sale done and worked both sides to make it happen. Thank you Laurel for you hard work.
