Mike helped me on purchasing my first home. I had no idea what to expect coming into the experience and at times it could be pretty stressful but Mike was always able to put my mind at ease. He completely worked around my schedule to look at homes, and gave me an honest assessment of everything we looked at. The only real work I did was pick a place, sign my name (about a million times), and pay. Mike took care of the rest and was even able to get me some money back. I would, and have recommended him to anyone looking for a real stir and look forward to working with him again.

Mike helped us find our first home and we couldn't be happier with the experience he provided. Given that we knew very little about the house buying process, Mike took the time (and patience!) to walk us through the entire process; to educate us about the San Diego region and various neighborhoods; and once we found our home, to help us through the offer and closing process. I would recommend Mike to my closest friends and family -- and plan on doing so.

I give Mike Mora my top recommendation. We purchased a home while stationed in another state - Mike set up a full weekend of showings, executed very timely offers, and completed the *entire* escrow process with us (buyers) being out of state. His access to the market ensured that we were often were the first to tour a property and his responsiveness ensured that we saved every penny on the property that we purchased. We ended getting a home about $40k under the local market based on Mike's ability to sell us as buyers and his ability to finish the escrow quickly and independently - the escrow was a mere 21 days to possession in a complex, remotely-purchased, tenant-occupied sale. He also worked seamlessly with the VA loan process. Further, Mike continued to follow up after possession to track how we were doing. Mike exceeded my expectations for professionalism, responsiveness, and success.

We were very happy with the services of Mike and the Mora Team with both the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home. Before making the decision to sell, Mike was available to explain the full details of the selling process, provide advice on market trends and best practices to sell, and answer any questions that popped up along the way. Mike was able to get multiple offers for our condo within the first 20 days of listing. Unfortunately, problems arose between our buyers and their financial institution to the result where they needed to back out of the purchase. This was a very stressful time for us because we had already had an offer accepted for our home that was contingent on the sale of our condo. Luckily, Mike was very detailed with his paperwork and were able to collect the deposit the buyers tried to contest. Mike was able to keep us calm by maintaining excellent communication, a calm demeanor, and forming a plan for success. He was able to re-list our condo (after we had already moved out 90% of our belongings) and get us an offer for $10k more than our asking price. At the same time Mike was selling our property to the second buyers, he was working tirelessly to save the purchase of our new home. Prior to the original buyer backing out, Mike was able to find us a great home, in our price range, where we could grow our family for many years to come. Mike was amazing to work with and we would recommend him very highly to anyone interested in buying or selling.

My husband and I dreamt of buying our first home this year. In January, my friend/co-worker introduced us to Mike, her high school friend. As luck would have it, Mike also happened to be our neighbor at the time! We instantly connected and started working with him. On a less lucky note, my husband, a Naval Officer, was sent to training in Rhode Island from February to late May. This left the house hunt up to me…and I know, without a doubt, that I could not have gotten through this process sanely if Mike was not there every step of the way! He set us up with an easy to use website to show us all available listings -we were able to save our favorites, make notes, and filter the search results to narrow the search down to our specific wish list. Mike met with me countless times and was always ready to set up another viewing. He never pressured me to pick one and was even more critical about most of the houses than I was. Mike really invested time learning what I loved, liked, hated, and the things I absolutely had to have. He remembered these things with each house tour and helped keep me on track. It was very comforting to know that he would not let me buy something that he wouldn’t be comfortable buying himself. Mike and I had so much fun house hunting that I’m actually a little sad that it’s over! Once we put an offer in on our house, Mike helped us through the confusing escrow process. He even helped me find contractors for all the little renovation projects I wanted to do and went to the meetings with me! Throughout the whole process, Mike always went above and beyond and I have been singing his praises to anyone who even mentions that they are looking to purchase a home!
