What People Are Saying

Cindy
Mike was great to work with. He is knowledgeable about the area, gives great advice, and always responds quickly to any question I have.
Mary Ann O'Rorke
My sons recommended Mike Carlin to represent my search for a town home in the Huntersville/Cornelius area. Mike had previously worked with each of them to find homes and they were very satisfied with his real estate knowledge. From the onset of our communication, Mike directed me to available properties by daily emails and personal tours. He was understanding of my needs and informed me of property strengths and repairs necessary at each site we visited. Since I was living in New Jersey Mike also communicated with my sons to help with decisions when I was unavailable. He went above and beyond in making sure I could find a home that I would feel comfortable in for years to come. Upon closing the purchase he also helped me communicate with various professionals with home improvement needs. I would highly recommend Mike Carlin to others who are relocating to this area.
Nick and Vanessa W
Mike did an outstanding job with our home search. We were on a corp relo package and Mike provided all the details we were looking for in terms of the area, very knowledgeable about the North Charlotte region. Mike listened to our needs and found several great houses for us to choose from in a busy ever changing market. We ended up choosing a new construction home and Mike continued to impress me with helping with builder inspections, driving conversation with our builder, and ensuring things got done. Mike was there every step of the way helping and answering our calls. I highly recommend Mike for your realtor needs.
Brian and Liz Moulton
Mike was quick to figure out which style of home my wife and I were looking for and this helped us narrow down our search. Once we found our home Mike did a good job of explaining all the steps it took to close the deal. Finally he helped us figure out financing options when the sale of our house took longer than anticipated. His patience helped relieve some of the stress that we were feeling. Mike is very knowledgeable and made the entire home buying process easy for my family.
Travis Julian
Mike was outstanding in helping us buy a home in Mooresville. He followed through on every detail. Even after closing, he helped us with getting the floors refinished. We have bought 15 homes, and Mike is the best agent we have used.
He is trustworthy, honest, and has been a great help in our process of buying and selling. We would not consider anyone else but MIKE CARLIN.
Abe Lehman
Mike was great to work with and helped quite a bit on the transaction. His follow up was great. I would recommend Mike to anyone who is looking to purchase or sell.
Kevin and Jan Baker
We have not only used Mike's experience in buying our home in Mooresville, but in selling it four years later. He is professional and knowledgeable, returned calls and texts in a timely manner. We never felt like we were in the dark on anything. My son also used him in the purchase of his first home. A class act AND a nice guy.
Johnny and Janet Todd
Mike and Chris are the experience you want and need. They are efficient and knowledgable and will be there for you until the end. We couldn't be happier with our decision to hire The Carlins to sell our home. They pay particular attention to detail and cover all bases. You won't be disappointed.

Mike. Is. The. Man.
Ping & Dana
Mike and Chris are the best realtors we have had or have known anywhere. They are always helpful in a timely and very personal way. We had used to have doubts if the realtor we were using truly had our interest in mind, but such doubts never occurred to us when we were recently with Mike and Chris. We would recommend them to anyone we know. Thank you, Mike and Chris.

Mike Carlin was referred to me by a friend in January of 2016. I was relocating from Austin Tx to the Charlotte area When I first spoke with Mike my intentions were to locate a rental. Mike encouraged me to check into purchasing as opposed to renting. Mike facilitated the contact with a lender and I found out that i qualified to purchase a home. When i was informed what my price range would be Mike was diligent in keeping me updated on the availablility of homes not only in my price range but in my comfort level as well. He listened to my wants and needs and guided me from Texas up until i was able to come to the area and view homes. When i arrived in March with 36 hours to secure a home Mike had lined up a variety of homes for me to tour. Mike helped me keep my thoughts and reactions in check. After seeing many homes I finally walked in to "the place" that felt wonderful to me. I knew when i walked in the door. Mike then held my hand through the entire process of making the offer, negotiating and accepting the terms and conditions of the offer. Once the offer was in place we made contact throughout the inspections and I was even able to close from a distance so that I would not have to take time off of work. Mike has a great organization and a fabulous attention to detail and pride in what he does. I am very greatful for all that Mike and his team has provdided me in the 4 months that i have worked with him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home.
