We cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle Cook. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make our property purchase a smooth and successful experience—especially given that it was a unique owner-financed transaction.
Owner-loan situations can be complicated, but Michelle handled every detail with confidence, clarity, and professionalism. She was incredibly knowledgeable, proactive, and always one step ahead, making sure all parties were aligned and that nothing slipped through the cracks. Her communication was exceptional—she kept us informed, explained everything clearly, and was always available when we had questions or needed reassurance.
What truly sets Michelle apart is her dedication and care. She genuinely had our best interests at heart and worked tirelessly to ensure the process was fair, transparent, and stress-free. Thanks to her expertise and commitment, what could have been a challenging process turned into a positive and seamless experience.
If you’re looking for a realtor who is trustworthy, detail-oriented, and truly outstanding at what she does, Michelle Cook is the one. We would recommend her without hesitation and are incredibly grateful to have had her on our side.

Michelle is an INCREDIBLE real estate agent! She walked us through the entire process at the front end and delivered on every aspect - pricing, preparation, marketing, responsiveness, connections to contractors (and coordinated most if not all of them!), showings and then expert negotiations to get us top price! I'd give her 10 out of 5 stars if possible :)

My mom recently sold her house in the Kingston/Hansville area and Michelle provided the absolute BEST realtor experience I've ever been a part of. From the get go she was a great listener and clearly explained all she would do to help prepare and then market my mom's home - from social media posts, to connections to contractors (she is so incredibly well connected to good tradespeople who showed up on time and got the necessary remodeling done), to staging, then photos and video of the house - she made the entire process stress free and enjoyable. She found a buyer within three weeks and we were incredibly blessed by the final sale price. I can't recommend Michelle enough...you won't regret going with her as she is a fantastic advocate, marketer, and advisor as a realtor. Thank you, Michelle!

We interviewed Michelle after meeting with several top local agents in the luxury market. We had connected with her a few years earlier and followed her on TikTok—never imagining we’d one day be selling our home. We chose Michelle because she genuinely cared about our property, and we felt confident she would fight for us and represent us with integrity. Her honesty and attention to detail stood out immediately. She prepared a comprehensive report outlining the market landscape and what steps we needed to take to maximize our sale revenue. Michelle is incredibly responsive—whether by phone, text, or email—and always makes herself available. She’s not afraid to tackle tough questions and consistently had our back. Her listings are handled with precision and professionalism, balancing a firm hand with a warm, approachable demeanor in her negotiations. We highly recommend Michelle. She was amazing and truly appreciated what she did for us. Karina and Nicolas Duchastel

I had the pleasure of working with Michelle Cook on the sale of my own personal home, as well as numerous transactions together professionally from a vendor standpoint. I got to see firsthand how she operated and advocated for her clients, which is what drew me to working with her. She is knowledgeable, incredibly smart and dedicated to staying on top of her local market. She is an expert in all things real estate, making her your personal real estate swiss army knife. She invests her energy and time into making full sure you're ready to list and will get top dollar for your home and as a buyer, that you will be advocated and negotiated for. I cannot say enough about Michelle's work ethic, and energy. And add to all of this... somehow she manages to make time to give back to the community that she loves so much, Kingston, Washington. I started referring to her as the "Mayor of Kingston." They'd be lucky if it were true. She is personally involved in her city, and even created a space at the local market, KidzKorner, for the local kiddos to blow off some steam and have some fun. Parents too! She's not only a great real estate agent, but a great human. 100% you should call Michelle.

Perhaps best of all we completely trusted Michelle, and we're secure in knowing that everything she said or did was in our best interest.
With her guidance, the homes sold almost immediately, for over asking price.

My mother and I have worked with Michelle on 5 transactions over the years - two homes and one undeveloped property. Michelle has always been kind, professional, ethical, and very knowledgeable. She gave the same care and attention to every transaction, larger or smaller. Most recently, she helped me sell my home after I'd already moved out of state - she coordinated a new roof and other various repairs, landscaping and staging, and advised me on timing. I took all her advice and it paid off with a speedy, smooth sale over asking price. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Working with Michelle as a first-time homebuyer was an outstanding experience. From the start, she was not only prompt in her responses but also incredibly knowledgeable and patient, guiding me through every step of the process. She took the time to thoroughly explain each aspect of buying a home, ensuring I felt confident and well-informed in my decisions. Michelle was always flexible, providing me with the information I needed and answering all my questions in a clear, timely manner. Despite facing some challenges with the sellers and the process taking longer than expected, Michelle made everything as stress-free as possible. Her expertise and supportive approach truly made the entire experience much smoother than I anticipated. I especially appreciated how she continues to check in with me even after closing, knowing that there are always more questions and details to sort out when buying a first home. I would wholeheartedly recommend Michelle to anyone—especially first-time buyers. Her exceptional level of support and education makes all the difference in what can often be a daunting process.

Michelle is the realtor you’ve always wanted. She’s meticulously professional while also helping you feel like you’re having a great time. She truly cares about her clients needs and is a careful listener. She’s deeply knowledgeable about the Kitsap+ region and helps people find their perfect fit. She offers advice and volunteers information but is not overly opinionated - she respects that buying/selling a home is your investment. Michelle is awesome! Stop looking for another realtor.

Michelle was a wonderful surprise. She is not your average "run-of-the-mill" realtor. She is a realtor who makes you feel like you are talking to a friend. Michelle made me feel like this was not just a transactional relationship but a personal friendship. She made my home search her mission. Michelle listened to my wants and needs. She listened to where I was in the past, and where I wanted to be in the future. Her knowledge and insights helped guide me through a very stressful home search. Listening to her advice helped me find the perfect home at a price point I could afford. I feel like I now have a realtor I can always depend on and would recommend to everyone.

Choosing a realtor can be a daunting task. In anticipation of selling your home, the choice comes down to several factors, including personality, pricing, and vision. Imagine a realtor who has checked those boxes and so much more. We saw our home's selling potential through the eyes of not only an experienced realtor but a kind, humorous, and pragmatic person. Michelle provided suggestions for touch-ups and improvements. She recommended an experienced professional for window washing, and suggested a thorough home inspection professional that gave us peace of mind. Our home was beautifully staged and marketing tools, including colorful brochures and an interactive online listing, preceded our open house. Every detail in selling our home felt personalized and we felt supported in every step. We had an offer in less than a week! We recommend Michelle 100%.
