Mike is my realtor. Mike is very easy to approach. He will never push his ideas. He always inform you all the options and pros and cons of each. He will let you decide on your own as each one us have our own unique situation. His charges are very reasonable. If I I have to sell my home one more time I will not think twice, I will go to him straight

Mike helped me buy my first house! His insight and knowledge into the bloomington market was invaluable, and his support through the negotiations and purchase was excellent. He helped set up contractors to handle issues identified in the inspection (all contractors were top notch too!). Mike's great, I highly recommend!

As my wife and I worked toward the purchase of our home, Mike was with us all the way through what turned out to be an unexpectedly difficult process. His steady and experienced hand led us past every obstacle. We will strongly recommend him to our friends. He is an excellent real estate agent.

I have been working with Mike for almost 20 years since I bought my first property at Lake Monroe, and he has managed every purchase and sale for me since, including managing two of my rental properties. He has proven himself worthy of my trust to the point where I have preferred him to act as sole agent on a few occasions - acting as both the buyer's and seller's representative. His knowledge of the process and the markets is unmatched, in my experience. He knows Bloomington extremely well and has always opened his Rolodex to find the right person/business to help me get things done - repairs, landscaping, inspections, closings, etc. I have typically let him handle things while I was overseas for many years and nothing ever fell through the cracks. My renters have always been happy and I have never been disappointed in his service. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to work with him all these years.

Mike Avila has been our real estate agent for the last four years and has always acted with great integrity. He can be relied upon to follow through on his promises and give excellent service. Not only has he done an excellent job of vetting our tenants, but he has also recommended reliable contractors. Mike is a consummate professional, and we unreservedly recommend him to all of our friends.

Mike Avila has been our property manager for the past eight years. Hiring Mike ranks as one of the best business decisions we have made. His professionalism, consistency, and relational personality addressed and alleviated every apprehension we had concerning the rental of our property. We can not refer him more highly. If you want to rent your property with ease of mind, hire Mike Avila.

I have known Mike since 2008 and have worked with him the last 13 years. I met Mike when I was looking to move to Bloomington from out of state. After interviewing several brokers, I found his knowledge of Bloomington and the real estate landscape extremely helpful – from seeing homes, picking the right neighborhood, negotiating the purchase price, and getting to closing and ownership quickly.

After leaving Bloomington in 2012, I hired Mike to rent my condo unit out for nine rental cycles. His diligence, vetting, and experience led him to picking out top-notch tenants. No damage, no major issues, on-time payments, and he managed all rental/tenant issues seamlessly. One might argue he got lucky once or twice, but nine superb renters in a row proves his system and process work, are successful, and lead to successful, low maintenance rentals. This is the ideal scenario for any landlord. He also maximized rental time, rental rates, minimized costs, and minimized vacancy between rentals.

When I finally decided to sell my condo, Mike did a great job hiring contractors to fix up the place (nine years of renting required some ding repair and paint touch-ups), including painting, minor maintenance updates, replacing carpet, and doing so quickly. He also did a great job recognizing the market dynamics, pricing my condo, and getting to a successful close extremely quickly.

I live out of state and trusted Mike with my property for 13 years. I could not find, think of, or recommend a better person to help you with buying, selling, renting, or any other property needs in Bloomington, or Southeastern Indiana.

While I am no longer in Indiana, I am still looking to work with Mike on other rental properties in Indiana. I trust, respect, and value Mike as a partner and a friend. You cannot find a better professional in the real estate industry.

I've had the pleasure of working with Mike Avila over the years, as my buyer's agent, property manager, and finally as my seller's agent. From my experience, I would describe Mike to be honest, patient, experienced, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. He will not cut corners, and play it by the book - always doing things the right way. He will give you great references (e.g. handyman, painter, etc.) when you need them. He helped us buy (and sell) our first house, and looking back, I really appreciate his patience in answering all our dumb first buyer/seller questions. As a testament to his character, even years after our business was done (and none further hinted), he was kind enough to spend a chunk of his weekend putting together documents I'd misplaced. If it wasn't obvious enough, highly recommended.
