Get PreApproved
THE MOST IMPORTANT 1st STEP IN THE BUYING PROCESS
Shopping for a new home is a fun and exciting process, but if you want to be taken seriously when you write that offer, you need to start the home-buying process with Michelle and a Lender, not previewing homes and going to open houses.
Just like you can't drive a car without a learner's permit...
You can't buy a house without a PreApproval
The last thing Michelle wants is for you to fall in love with a home, and then see it slip away - because Sellers are requiring that PreApproval Letter before they will even consider an offer.
Put your trust in Michelle... She will lead the way to make the home-buying process fun, starting with the PreApproval, so it saves you the heartache later.
PreQualification -vs- PreApproval
Simply put... a PreQualification can get you on the road to homeownership, but it does not prove that you can go the distance. Take the time to get the PreApproval to ensure you are in the fast lane!
In more detail, a PreQualification is a good first step to see if you are financially ready to buy a home. It is usually based on an informal evaluation of your finances by a Lender.
Whereas a PreApproval is an actual offer from a Lender to loan you a certain amount under specific terms, after a much more detailed evaluation of your finances.

If you want an expert to help you navigate the current real estate market, you need Michelle Meenach on your side. Her advice when selling my home was invaluable. She deftly handled and negotiated my property through a complicated multiple offer situation which ultimately netted me $50,000 over my asking price! I'm convinced a less experienced realtor would have produced a less desirable outcome. I would recommend Michelle without reservation.

Michelle was so great to work with and she worked to get me the best price for selling my house.

My realtor was Michelle Meenach in Cincinnati, Batavia Ohio. Michelle listens. She shows properties that you express interest in. She does not waste your time looking at properties you have no interest in seeing. She remains dedicated and involved after the contract is signed, all the way to closing. She is willing to assist to help you find and secure the home of your dreams. She has solid knowledge of the neighborhoods, the comps, and presently excellent options. She works tirelessly. She is always available. I have never know a more service oriented broker. Most of them walk away as soon as the ink is dry on the contract not Michelle, contact her she won't let you down.

- Andrew LaPointe, Batavia

Everything went very smoothly, we are well pleased with how quick and easy this transaction has been.

When we first started looking for houses, we would just go to open houses and get a feel for every realtor in charge of that certain property.. We didn't get a "GREAT" vibe from anyone to be honest and no one wanted to truly help us until we got close to our end of lease date of our apartment. BUT THEN, we went to a showing and there was Michelle. She was brutally honest about the house buying process in a very nice way and she expressed how she would help us no matter how long it took. We immediately fell in love with her. She was so kind and patient with our picky opinions. She was honest when we asked questions unlike most realtors who would just being looking for a way to get a pay check out of us. She was quick to reply through text/email. She also had AMAZING connections and helped us get estimates fast. All and all, I'd recommend her to anyone who is buying a house/renting/selling. I will most likely still be in contact with her for more connections as we make our new home our own space. Thank you so much for all the hard work Michelle

We received 2 offers within 5 days and ended up getting the asking price.

Michelle worked with us for almost a year before we found our forever home. There were times I would text her at 9pm on a Saturday and she would have a showing scheduled before noon the next day. I seriously don't think she rests! She walked us through every scary step of not only buying our home but also selling our previous home (one day if showings and 8 offers!). Michelle is professional, honest, and truly cares about her clients. If you are serious about buying or selling you deserve the best and trust me, Michelle Meenach is the best!

Michelle helped us through every step of the selling process, from helping us price our home appropriately, providing staging advice, and walking us through the inspection/appraisal/sale process step-by-step. Her advertising and professional photos earned us two bids on the first day we went active, both over list price! She stayed in contact during the entire inspection/appraisal/closing process and even set us up with a timeline via her website so we knew key dates and deliverables. She was with us at closing as well in case we needed her assistance. I would recommend Michelle to anyone selling (or buying)!
"
- Jim Richardson, Batavia
"
Michelle was well prepared and thoroughly researched the comps of our house before our first meeting. Did an excellent job marketing the home and was pending in less than 3 weeks. We even received more than what our initial thought was. If you need someone to sell your home call Michelle.

This was my first time selling a home and Michelle made the process super easy. She was available by multiple means of communication, was honest in her approach and got my home listed and under contract in what I consider to be a record amount of time.

I received Michelle's name through a very good friend of mine who was already working with Michelle. This was my second time buying a home, but it had been over 13 yrs since my first home buying experience and a totally different market. Michelle was very helpful in letting me know how the market was. Houses were being sold within 12 hours of being listed so I had to be ready when there was something that came available that I was interested in. Michelle took the time to find the market price we were looking for along with the specifics I wanted such as what I wanted in the home and the neighborhood. She was always quick to send me homes that became available and also quick to set up an appointment for me to look at the homes. When I found a home I was interested in putting an offer on she was very helpful in making the transaction happen as quickly as she could. She was always easy to get ahold of and always answered any questions I had in a timely manner. I felt like Michelle was always looking out for my best interests. I never felt like she pushed anything on me to make a quick sale. She was always very professional and respectful. I have already given Michelle's information to my ex-husband as he and his partner are looking to buy a home. I highly recommend her.

Michelle deserves 10 stars if not more!! Excellent realtor!! From the first day of listing your home or looking to buy a home she is on top of it. Day or night she is by your side at every moment you need her. She is determined to do what is right for her client. She cares about the home you’ve lived in and made memories in order to sell at that right price and if you’re buying to get you into the right place to be your home. She becomes not only your realtor but your loyal friend, side kick, and backbone throughout the process of selling or buying. At every step you know someone has your back in the big choices you make. I highly recommend her if you’re planning to sale or buy a home. She’s the best!!!!
