Rock Realty Client Testimonials

“This was a great effort from Mike Collins. He did a super super job with the selling of our home in Wisconsin. I could not ask for more from him as he kept me well informed of things going on and we are 1200 miles apart. He did more than a 110 percent job on everything. Even removing snow and whatever it took to have our home ready to show. Again, THANKS Mike for everything. Great Job!!!!!!”

“Approx 4 years ago.. I was having some financial strain. I wasn’t able to keep up with a first and second mortgage alone as a single mom.

Through friends and family, I was introduced to Mike and Matt.

I didn’t want to have to go through the foreclosure process, because I knew that I would be able to pull through the mess I was in within a few years and I didn’t want to have that looming over me.

Matt and Mike were able to take over and help me with a short sale. They worked with me directly. They both came to my home, sat down, helped me understand this delicate process (which remains total Greek to me), and they were extremely efficient. My bank worked with me and these gentlemen, and withing approx 3 months, my home was sold in a short sale.

I remain amazed at their abilities and their continued efforts to help me.

Now, 3 years later, I’m looking to purchase… I have looked them up again… and they are helping me find a home that I’m looking for within my specifications and they also have resources to assist with lending.

Couldn’t ask for more!!

Thanks so much my friends!! you do an awesome job… Keep up the great work!”

“I had a very challenging home sale and Mike Collins was diligent every step of the way. The most difficult aspect may have been me, I was very specific about which closing dates worked and how I wanted to proceed. Mike patiently answered all of my questions and accommodated all of my requests. When issues between the title and mortgage companies arose, Mike was a swift and competent negotiator. I know that the buyer’s agent was very impressed with Mike as well. My house had an accepted offer within 10 days of listing. I am amazed that it all went so smoothly. THANKS MIKE!”

“Michael did a good job following through on the short sale that we did together. Short sales can be painful but he was persistent with the bank.”

“Working with Michael was outstanding. I moved to another state and I never worried about the house. Even with a long and stressful short sale Michael was always positive and reassuring that things would work out. I’ve bought and sold other houses but by far Michael was the best realtor I have ever had. I would recommend him to anyone!!! Five stars!!! Thanks again Michael!! Great job!!!”

“My home was in foreclosure, and I was going to turn it over to the bank, untill I spoke with Mike about putting my house up for a Short Sale. He explained the advantages of a short sale vs foreclosure, and I decided to let Mike sell my home. My mortgage company put up many roadblocks along the way, but Mike was able to solve everything. In the end Mike worked very hard on this sale. I am very happy with his skills at dealing with buyers/sellers, and Mortgage companies. I would recommend Michael Collins and Rock Realty in the future.”

“Michael Collins and Matt Heitmann with Rock Realty were great! I have been searching for a House/Condo for the past 3 years, and they were with me the whole way. Even through all of the struggles we had to deal with, they didn’t give up on me. They gave me great advice, and didn’t pressure me into making any decisions that they thought I would regret. Michael and Matt both actually even told me not to buy in some cases because they thought the house or condo would not be a good fit for me.

The overall experience was great, and I will definitely be using Michael Collins and Matt Heitmann of Rock Realty with my next home purchase.”

“Mike Collins helped us sell our home, he was a very nice guy and always there when we had any questions or concerns! Mike went above and beyond and even helped paint the house when there was a time crunch for the inspection. We appreciated all that Mike did!”

“My first listing contract (with another agency) expired without a single showing. I contacted Mike Collins hoping to get some straight advice about whether he thought the property would ever sell versus letting the lender foreclose on the property and save my mortgage payments for legal counsel. He was upfront from day one. He told me that it would take a while and that I’d probably have to hold it through the winter (I called him in September) but it would probably sell in the spring. His honesty made me immediately willing to hire him. He found a buyer in May and worked with my lender to close the sale in record time.”

“I am nothing but honored and enthusiastic to be able to write and highly recommend Mike Collins with Rock Reality for your next real estate adventure. I had a very negative experience with a different major realtor in the Janesville area who rushed me in an out of houses, pressuring me to sign purchase agreements, and caring more about the money then the person and the house that best fit them.

It was just the opposite with Mr. Collins. Mike with Rock Reality is honest, takes the time to find the right home for you without pressure, cares more about doing what is right by his clients and his reputation than just simply making the sale. For Mike, word of mouth is the best advertising he can get and he cherishes keeping his positive.

Mike Collins and Rock Realty were fair and thorough. When it came to signing contracts and paperwork, Mike took the time to go line-by-line to make sure I understood exactly what I was signing. Never did I feel like I was being rushed or taking up time from a different appointment.

With great pleasure and gratitude, I recommend Mike Collins and Rock Reality for your next home hunt or sale.”

“We are writing this testimonial to inform any potential clients that Michael Collins successfully helped save our home. We found ourselves in a financial hardship which caused us to be late on mortgage payments. This eventually led our lender to foreclose on our home. Michael Collins was able to negotiate with our lender and cancel the court auction. This gave us time to resolve our financial difficulties and eventually work out a payment plan with the bank.”

“We both strongly endorse Michael Collins as an agent who has the experience and resources to help people like us in a similar situation. We are deeply gratefull for his efforts and plan to use him as our agent in any future real estate transactions.”
