Working with Mike was an amazing experience! I recently sold my first house, and I would highly recommend him to anyone I know. Mike understood my personal situation and remained patient and helpful the whole way through. He has incredible knowledge in the field as he was able to give me so much information throughout the entire process. I will definitely use his services again!
Mike Barber of Cressy & Everett provided excellent service when representing me in the purchase of land. Mike is highly professional, knowledgeable and easy to deal with. The whole process went smoothly and I would definitely recommend Mike plus the team at Cressy & Everett to any persons seeking a real estate agent in South West Michigan.
Mike was always a true professional. He always answered all our questions in a timely manner. MIke showed patience with us throughout our journey to find the perfect condo in South Haven. With Mike's attention to detail, our purchase went smoothly and was enjoyable. Mike always accommodated our request to see a condo - even on short notice. We would definitely use Mike again
Mike was the absolute best in helping us with everything. We could not have had a more pleasant experience with purchasing the house. We recommend him above all others.

GREAT!!!!!
Danielle & Cesar Diaz, Benton Harbor, a buyer from St. Joseph, MI
Mike was excellent to work with! We found a house we loved, contacted Mike, and he started working with us right away to negotiate terms and get under contract quickly. He was knowledgeable of the area we were looking, was detail-oriented, responsive, friendly and always on top of everything. We would highly recommend Michael Barber to anyone.
Dale Burwell, Bridgman, a seller from Bridgman, MI
Mike provided a much needed market analysis as we had multiple appraisals that failed to provide clarity. Property was owned as tenants in common and 2 of the 3 tenants had virtually no past experience in the marketing/sale of real estate. Mike was able to explain in common terms the target pricing logic along with appropriate comps.
His calming personality and in depth knowledge was invaluable in getting them through the process. He is timely, proactive, knowledgeable, conducts himself in a professional manner and can be trusted. My career required 9 relocations, 7 of which involved the Purchase/Sale of Real Estate and he is the best I have ever dealt with. We were lucky to have him as our agent and I HIGHLY recommend him!
Paul Leifer - Northville, MIsoon to, a buyer from Saint Joseph, MI
Mike Barber was a terrific agent as my family moved to SW Michigan! He asked good questions to understand our must-haves and nice-to-haves. He was accessible nearly anytime and communicated well via email, phone, text, and in-person. His knowledge of the area and recommendations were extremely helpful since we had never lived there. Virtual showings were done quickly and at times that were convenient for us. His guidance on our offer and during negotiations helped us land a wonderful new home. Choose Mike for your next real estate need. You'll be glad you did!

Marla Ratcliff, Stevensville, a buyer from St. Joseph, MI
Mike was recommended and chosen by my Agent in Illinois. After discussing my situation with him on the phone, I felt confident that he had the knowledge and experience to help me move back to Michigan and find my forever home.
Mike is a knowledgeable and trustworthy person and agent.
Despite the fact that I was in Illinois, Mike kept me informed with any news, updates, and even texted me photos on the progression of my new house.
Buying a house in Michigan from California, would not had been possible without the help, knowledge and professionalism that Mike Barber displayed during every conversation, negotiation, and request. I will recommend Mike to everyone!

He always had good insight into what my needs were as a buyer of a shaper term rental property. Excellent attention to detail and follow up.
Jenny Smicklas, Lawton MI, a buyer from St. Joseph, MI
My husband and our children were moving from Indiana, for my husband's job. Mike made the transition easy. He listened to what we were looking for in a house and overall setting of the property. It took a little time, but Mike was always patient. He has followed up with us since the move to make sure certain things had been taken care of. We will definitely keep him in mind if we would ever decide to sell. Thanks again Mike for everything. You made our transition to Michigan much easier.
Amanda & Chris Rader, Bangor, a seller from St. Joseph, MI
Mike was amazing! He went above and beyond to get things handled for us. He was on top of things and great at communicating with us as we went through the process. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor. We wouldnt have been able to make it through the process without him!
I've worked with a hand full of realtors at this point and Mike has easily been the best to work with. I plan on going with Mike every time going forward if I can. If you want someone to go to bat for you, Mike is the guy. He understands your goals and gets things done. 10/10 would recommend!
D. Frederick Coon, Saint Joseph,, a seller from Saint Joseph, MI
Mike Barber is the most professional, knowledgeable and hardest working realtor I have ever known.
We met Mike when our son bought a house with him. I was impressed by his sincerity and caring to help my son and his wife find the right house for them. He even helped us install a vinyl floor that was required for their loan. When we decided to look at houses I knew I wanted to contact Mike and we have been satisfied with our decision.
Mike always kept us up to date on the progress of the sale and when certain things were needed for us to schedule or sign.
We are satisfied with the process of buying our new home and are enjoying renovating it.
David Fidler, Mishawaka IN, a buyer from Niles, MI
Based upon my experience, Mike Barber exceeded all expectations in timely and clear communication, honesty and transparency, and making my real estate purchase his priority.
Joanne Coon, Benton Harbor, MI, a seller from Saint Joseph, MI
We met Mike when we were looking at a property he had listed. The connection was immediate and used him to look at additional properties. We purchased one of those properties and he made the process almost effortless on our part. After our satisfaction, we didn't look elsewhere when it came time to list my home. We will use Mike again when we list my husband's property. Thank you, Mike!
He is just wonderful. My trust in him was complete when it came to buying and selling my home.
Sandra Collin Saint Joseph, Michigan, a seller from Saint Joseph, MI
We met Michael Barber for the first time right after he had been to our next door neighbors house. We liked him right away and felt comfortable talking about selling our home. He offered good suggests on how to get our house ready to sell. He was sincere about doing his best to sell our home and to get the right price for it.
Michael Barber was perfect and did all the above to the best of his ability. We were 100 percent pleased with him and so happy we had him as our realtor.
Our house sold in 2 days!!! We worked for over two years to get everything updated. Then Michael Barber helped us "stage" our house for an added touch.
We were 100 percent satisfied with Michael Barber! We would highly recommend him to friends and family or anyone who has a house to sell.
Michael Barber even checked the entire house to make sure we didn't leave anything.
He found in the linen closet some items that I did not mean to leave. I'm so thankful he called me because that was the only place in the entire house I forgot to check! Thanks Mike for finding these items and calling me before we headed to Georgia.
Mike had a lot of properties to show me and worked diligently with me on getting the right house for me and my family.
Joseph Smith - 6540 North Branch Rd, a buyer from St. Joseph, MI
Mike's a nice and respectful guy. He tried to accommodate for everything we were wanting done. He's went above and beyond his duties as my realtor. He knows just about everything there is to know about taking care of his clients and the VA buying experience.
our experience with Mike Barber was exceptional. He walked us through every step of the process to make our sale successful. We could not have picked a more experienced and professional person to handle our sale. We would highly recommend him to any person/s that need real-estate services.
Rebecca Smith Dowagiac MI, a buyer from Stevensville, MI
Mike always welcomed me with a smile and shared lots of knowledge and shed light on certain aspects of the home buying process that I sometimes didnt understand as a first time homebuyer , he really is quite good in his position as an agent!
Mike was absolutely terrific ! Very knowledgeable and always on top of everything professional and approachable. I was extremely satisfied with his assistance in helping me to find a home as well as his adamance to get things done. I couldnt have asked for a better agent and will be defiantly referring him to several individuals after the positive experience I had!

The Udell's, Stevensville, a buyer from Stevensville, MI
We loved working with Mike when buying our first home. He really got to know us as a couple and listened to what our needs were. Mike is extremely patient and wants to find the right home for you. Not once did he make us feel pressured to buy a home that we didn't like. Mike was only a phone call away. He was able to get back to us promptly, if not immediately. He was professional and organized throughout our entire home buying process. Mike is great at what he does. We would recommend him to anyone buying a home. We'd love to work with Mike again in the future! 2018
Caleb Caldwell - St Joseph , a buyer from Saint Joseph, MI

Bob Tiefenbach, Stevensville, MI, a seller from Stevensville, MI
Mike was a top notch realtor. We have dealt with a lot of realtors from being in the Air Force and there were none as knowledgeable. Mike was the best. Mike was thorough in ensuring our property was seen by the most people. He handled the whole process as it was his own house making us his number one priority. 2018
Clark G, Grand Junction Michigan, a buyer from Stevensville, MI
Mike Barber couldn't have done a better job in every way possible. He was extremely knowledgeable, always ontime, and patient with me. He took the time to help me find the right house. He didn't just want me to get a random house that I would later be unhappy with; he wanted me to find the house I would love for years to come. He was always patient with me: even when I backed out of a sale at the last second due to concerns of cell phone tower radiation (was about 50 feet from the house LOL).
Mike would answer the phone for me @ 11:00PM on a saturday (consistently) if I needed to get ahold of him with questions, concerns; that meant a lot to me.
10/10 ... I could not have asked for a better Real-Estate Agent. He also has good connections in the lending industry, and suggested I get a USDA loan (no money down), which helped me IMMENSELY. I don't have much to compare him to; but I would never go through another real estate Agent other than Mike Barber, if I didn't have to.
Call Mike Barber if you're looking for a top notch real estate agent. You will not be disappointed. 2018
I had talked with Mike on a couple of occasions, and when I was finally ready to find a home to purchase I reached out to Mike. He seemed to drop everything else he had to do and arranged showings for me immediately, fully understanding my need to quickly find the right home. After finding the one, things on my end seemed to be falling apart at every opportunity. Mike stuck with us and effectively held our deal together for nearly three months. Open communication was and is important to me and Mike went out of his way to to exceed our expectations. 2018
Eric Standen, St. Joseph, MI, a buyer from Stevensville, MI
Michael Barber handled the work for this purchase quickly and efficiently. 2018
Ben Freeman, Berrien Springs, a buyer from Stevensville, MI

Mike Barber was phenomenal to work with in the selling of my home.
This was the first home I have ever sold and he made sure I understood each step of the negotiations, he proactively provided solutions to help me maximize my sales potential, and communicated on a regular basis.
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike and have already recommended other friends and family take advantage of his services.
I will definitely use Mike again in the future 2017
Joseph Dec , Benton Harbor , a buyer from Stevensville, AL
I'm a tough old retired military guy . I don't take a lot of guff from people and can smell a liar and a phony a mile away . Mike Barbar was an honest professional . He alway found solutions and answers to , what seemed to me , impossible situations. Maybe more importantly Mike was able to communicate to me, in layman terms , what was really going on with the process , the seller and the loan company If you are looking for an honest , and professional person to guide you through the confusing and scary maze of home buying or selling , I most strongly recommend Mike Barber. 2017
