Why Work With Realty87?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
Work with Mike was a great experience. Ultimately it was a house found and recommended by Mike that I eventually bought. It was soon to come on to the market, and he had us there immediately to take a look. His expertise, speed and flexibility ultimately got us the house that we love. 5/5 would recommend Mike to anyone.

Mike Schulte did a great job for us. His expertise came shining through as he guided us through the selling process. He encouraged us to get the house on the market right away, his pricing strategy was right on the money. He usually gave us 2 or 3 suggestions or options on major decisions and helped us chose the option that worked best for us. I appreciated all his input on staging the house. Thanks Mike, worth every penny - great working with you!

We were relocating out of state and needed a realtor we could trust to get the job done. We chose Mike not only because we had a personal relationship with him, but also because he has a great reputation and proven results. When we met with Mike, he was very professional and knowledgeable and did some amazing videos to market our home. We moved prior to the sale of our house, which meant entrusting Mike with continuing to market and keep our home in the forefront of the MLS. Being 1000 miles away meant putting all of our faith and trust in Mike's hands. We couldn't have made a better decision. Mike was in frequent communication with us and was very proactive in scheduling agent showings, open houses, and getting our house in front of several prospective buyers, which took the stress off knowing that he was working hard for us even though we were no longer in Iowa. Mike took care of some key items for us, that we could not do ourselves given our relocation. When it came time to close on the sale of our home, Mike made that process easy and stress-free. We were able to take care of everything electronically, without having to travel back to Iowa to close the deal. Mike was a huge advocate for us and went above and beyond what was expected. We would highly recommend Mike Schulte for your real estate needs!

The team of Mike and Noel met our needs to a 'T' They were very flexible as we looked through many properties at all times of the day and week. They were a joy to work with and kept the process fun and as stress free as possible. I highly recommend Mike and Noel to anyone looking to buy/sell in the Cedar Rapids area!

Mike Schulte is the absolute BEST!!! We moved out of state before our house was sold. We had started with another agent who just couldn't get the job done. Mike helped us to prepare our house for optimum results. When I needed to have a few repairs done or contractors in, Mike worked with them and with us to make sure it happened. He used great photographs and social media to really showcase our house. He also had open houses with other realtors to get them involved as well. In the end, we ended up getting 3 competing bids and sold our house for above our asking price. He was cool and insightful during the negotiation process and skillful in helping us to get the closing pre-requisites completed. He even acted on our behalf to handle the closing while we were in New York State. I can't say enough great things about Mike, his service, integrity and overall professionalism.

This is the second home we’ve purchased with Mike as our agent, and the first one we’ve sold. He’s a phenomenal realtor who everyone in Cedar Rapids seems to know. Each person I’ve talked to only has great things to say about him which is a testament to his reputation and people skills (which is 80% of what realty is.) Mike knows everyone and everything. He’s super fast in his responses and did a great job giving us valuable advice. Our first experience with him was great, and our second experience with him didn’t disappoint. 10/10 A+

If there were more than five stars, I would give it to Mike. I was a first time seller and a second time buyer and his knowledge really made it easy to both sell our previous house and purchase our recent house. When I was selling my house last year, he had it sold within two days of putting it on the market. He worked hard to find us our current house and we couldn't be happier to be in our current home.

My husband and I recently relocated to Iowa, and were lucky enough to work with a realtor who was extremely helpful and hardworking. Mike Schulte, from Coldwell Banker Hedges in Cedar Rapids, displayed the highest levels of service as we went through the process of purchasing our new home. From addressing our many questions to meeting with us again and again, Mike was not only responsive to assisting us, but went above and beyond to help us purchase the home that we fell in love. I believe that it was truly the outstanding service provided by Mike that led to us securing our home at a price that fell within our budget. After going under contract, we emailed and called Mike with questions and concerns, and he was there for us. In fact, he was often the one reaching out to us, keeping us up to date on everything that was going on, and even consulting with a contractor, regarding a concern that we had with the inspection. We always had faith that if Mike said he would handle something for us, it would be taken care of. I know that we weren't Mike's only clients, and I understand that our priorities may not have always been his, yet he maintained a kind demeanor, and made us feel that we were always his top priority. No matter how many demands we presented to Mike, he maintained a superior level of service. I cannot express how thankful that I am we found Mike, and that his dedication helped get us our home! I would recommend Mike to anyone that was looking for a personable, professional realtor to assist them in buying or selling a home.

Mike was very professional, patient and knowledgeable about the Cedar Rapids housing market when we were searching for our home. He was always prompt and flexible when meeting to view houses. Mike was very observant and took note of our wish list and made sure to notify us when houses met the criteria we had in mind for our dream home. During the buying process he was very helpful, answered all our questions and gave us great advice during negotiation. As first time home buyers in Iowa we felt very well taken care of. I would recommend Mike to anyone looking for their future dream home.

We came across Mike through the review section on Zillow. The entire process was seamless and pain free. I am writing this review almost a year after purchasing the home. He helped us establish a strong connection with the seller, which only made the process easier. Without going into needless detail, I want to touch on his major qualities.<br/><br/>One of the best things about Mike was that he always played Devil's advocate. He definitely is not a 'yes man'. It helped us gain a larger perspective on each home. Additionally, he also went beyond our 'search requirements' because he had a hunch we would like something. Turns out he was spot on! We would have never considered his option had he not gone against our requirements.<br/><br/>Second, he is well in touch with technology. No needless in person visits for paper work. We were able to sign for everything via email and secure documents. If you are tight on time, you will find this to be a blessing. I cannot stress this enough. Having a Realtor with a strong sense of technology will make your life better.<br/><br/>Additionally, he is very personable and kind. While you would think this doesn't matter, it really helps establish a relationship with the seller and their Realtor. As I am sure you are aware by now, being nice to people allows for them to be nice in return. Wonders can be done this route, and it can turn a potentially poor situation into a wonderful collaboration.<br/><br/>After all this, you know you have a good Realtor if at the end of the sale you say to yourself...'I would totally let Mike sell my new home when the time comes.'
