I cannot recommend Michele Phelan more highly, as a realtor. Michele was my agent for the sale of our family home, on Block Island-and there were MANY issues. First: multiple owners with less than "perfect relationships". As managing trustee, I was the one responsible for any decisions, regarding the house-sale or anything else. However, other partial owners approached Michele several times and she handled them, firmly with polite professionalism. At times, I had to contact her while she and I were both on vacation and she never let that interfere with our correspondence. She also dealt with some very difficult buyers and complicated Purchase and Sale agreements. The final result was a successful sale - despite all the people and issues involved-and Michele was never anything but polite, professional and available, anytime, we needed assistance. Again, we highly recommend Michele, and the agency, to anyone involved with the purchase or listing of a property on Block Island
Michele was a phenomenal partner to us throughout our search for a special island home. She possesses extensive knowledge about the island and always provided tremendous support to us through her insights and recommendations regarding homes as well as nuances of the island. She was lovely to work with throughout every step of the process and quickly became a friend and trusted advisor. Michele's kindness and dedication were instrumental to us and we felt privileged to have experienced her expertise. She remains a great friend whose love of the island allows her to support her client's every need.
