Testimonials




Justin & Mary

My wife and I had done our homework, but were clueless in so many ways about the process of buying our first house. Real estate is a complicated business with many moving parts, and it’s easy to lose sight of all of the balls that you need to be juggling at the same time to make the process of buying a house successful. Mickey D’Loughy made this process not only less stressful and a success (we love our new home!), he helped make it fun and exciting – as buying your first home should be. I’m sure many years down the line we’ll look back and still be thankful that Mickey was the person we chose to help guide us through this process. My wife and I had both known Mickey for years before we decided to buy a house, and I was hesitant that maybe having someone we considered a friend would not be a good candidate to serve as our agent. I could not have been more wrong. Mickey was very professional and objective throughout our search for the right house and through the purchasing phase. I think I must have asked him at least four times to explain how due diligence and earnest money works and each time he explained it skillfully. He is very good at communicating with clients and clearly has an excellent knowledge of the real estate market in Raleigh and the overall process of home buying. Without question we would choose Mickey if we had to do the whole process over again.

Mickey was extremely helpful in both selling our house and finding a new one. His advice really helped us sell our existing house quickly with multiple offers. He guided us completely on what he recommend we do to get the house ready to sell, which meant some repairs that took a little longer than anticipated. It was an older home we had lived in for almost 18 years. He guided us through inspections, repairs, price comps, etc. And when purchasing our new house he was just as valuable. He is very thorough and some things may have taken longer but it really was always to our benefit.
I do not think we would have sold our existing house as quickly and for the price if it were not for his advice and guidance (and the same goes for our new home purchase). He sold it in one day with multiple offers above asking price, he was great and we sold for much more than we originally anticipated when my husband and I started looking into selling our home.
Tim & Dani

You were a real pleasure to work with Mickey. I never felt alone in the process and it was a comfort knowing you were espousing for me and my family in every aspect. In addition to your "calming" energy, you definitely seemed genuinely happy when we were excited about a house (and our final house) and any sort of nuance about a particular property. And you lifted us up through the less enthusiastic parts as well (like money and closing). There was not a part of the process that seemed confusing to me and you did a wonderful job explaining everything. And I never doubted you cared, ever. Honestly I couldn't imagine buying a home with anyone else.

  • Professional throughout
  • 100% cared throughout the process and explained everything clearly
  • Great communication and honest feedback throughout
  • Great service; lots of late nights/weekends and off hours communication throughout the process; patience and acceptance as we revised our search criteria during the process and removed a bid; worked well to communicate with the agent on the house that was purchased - especially during re-bids and working against multiple offers
  • Many, many phone calls/emails/texts that were all returned promptly - the communication is what we really appreciated
Brian & Catherine
​
  • Mickey was extremely thorough and detail-oriented. We never felt rushed and we always felt that he had our best interests in mind.
  • Mickey has a great personality and made looking at houses fun. He was always very responsive and got back to me very quickly.
  • I was very impressed with Mickey's knowledge. He would point things out that I would have never thought of. He seemed to know all of the details of everything, and if he didn't know, he would quickly find out.
  • Mickey always kept us in the loop and clearly explained everything. We were never confused about the process because Mickey explained things so well.
  • We could not have found the great house that we did without Mickey's help.
  • Mickey offered great flexibility and availability. Even when we were out of town he always communicated promptly with us and kept us fully informed.
  • Mickey was always available and answered all of our questions thoroughly. Buying a house can be stressful and it certainly helps if someone is there to answer your questions and ease your concerns right away. The market was moving very fast at the time that we bought and Mickey was able to get us in to see houses very quickly. He was able to answer every question that we had.

  • There was a moment there at the closing when the bank started to give us a hassle, and Mickey had it under control and really made the hassle go away
  • We ended up in the perfect house for us
