Michael Duggan | Windermere Abode — Local services in Tacoma

Michael helped our friend find a home they love. Years later, my wife looked at a house that Michael was representing. She didn’t know about his connection to our friend until after getting a great impression of his character and professionalism. Years later, we asked Michael to help find our home in Tacoma. We are both from surrounding areas but relatively new to Tacoma specifically. We had the greatest time learning about Tacoma by exploring houses in neighborhoods in all corners of the area. Michael took us to house after house, all the while pointing out the best that Tacoma has to offer.

This is our first home. We’d never been through this process and were often unsure of the best practices for success. Michael was the perfect guide. He consistently offered a balanced assessment and perspective of potential homes based on careful attention to our ever-shifting interests, wants, and whims. Through his guidance and knowledge, and the opportunities to explore and reflect on our hopes and potential Michael remained patient and steady. He gave his honest assessment and perspective without attempting to influence our decisions. He helped connect us to other professionals for assistance with financing, inspections, and various other community resources. He communicated clearly and timely, often when we couldn’t.

Ultimately, we found a home that met our needs and wants and we’re incredibly happy. I can’t imagine having found another guide with the experience, perspective, professionalism, and personability that Michael showed up with in every interaction. I am typing this from my newly reconstructed kitchen table in my new kitchen and I am smiling ear to ear.

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...

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...
