Mike is professional, honest, down-to-earth, reliable, and excellent at what he does. He is always available to answer questions and get advice. My husband and I could not ask for a better agent to work with. We are so happy we found him! You will honestly not be disappointed.

Mike Tavernise is a consummate professional in every way. From the first time meeting, he couldn’t have been more personable or knowledgeable about his field and has honed the craft of buying and selling real estate down to a near exact science. No small detail was overlooked. He has earned every ounce of support and trust after all that he did to help navigate us through the sale of our childhood home seamlessly straight through to closing. He was a guiding beacon of light through the entire process. I would unequivocally recommend him to anyone in need of a real estate hand, and he’d still be my go to for any possible future needs I might have. He was truly a pleasure and a delight to work with from start to finish.

We first met Michael Tavernise last July,2020 as we were deciding on a broker who would list our house when we were ready to sell in the early winter. He was open and honest in letting us know how to prepare the house for listing and how he would help us throughout the process. In January,2021, we met with Michael again and he was extremely professional , openly sharing suggestions as to the best way to get our home ready for showing, which he did 2 weeks after our meeting. We valued and trusted his expertise as he guided us through the process. His marketing skill was exceptional and he showed the house in one weekend 41 times receiving 20 well qualified offers. Once we decided on whom we would sell our home too, Mike was always available to answer our many questions , he did so promptly and kept us abreast throughout the following weeks as we awaited closing . We were extremely pleased with his service, professionalism and open communication, truly a pleasure to work with!

Mike is incredibly diligent and very responsive. He’s a pleasure to work with which is why we have used him for almost all our real estate deals. His industry and market knowledge is top notch and his approach to each deal is very meticulous. He knows no deal or market are the same which is greatly appreciated. You won’t be disappointed, he truly is one of the best!

Micheal was extremely attentive going out of his way to work around our busy schedule. We love our house and we saw over 40 homes before finding ours. Thanks Mike for selling our home and helping us find our new one.

Michael's ability to identify homes suited for us, his responsiveness to our calls, and advocacy made us feel at ease from the very beginning when selling and buying a home. Michael's professionalism and honesty guided our thinking and helped us find the best house in the market.

Michael is the best real estate agent I have ever dealt with. He was very thorough with his research. What I really liked was when I would send him some potential homes, he would immediately respond back with detailed information such as where the house was located within the block, if it was located on a busy street, etc. I felt confident in him and was impressed that he knew so much about a lot of areas on Long Island. Michael is kind, sincere, smart and funny. He is the only real estate agent I would work with and would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Michael was very helpful in helping us find a seller as well as helping us find a new apartment, if he didn't know the neighborhood he put us in touch with other agents that did.

Michael Tavernise is absolutely excellent. He helped us navigate the selling process- he kept us comfortable and informed . Throughout the process, he was always available and willing to assist us. All in all, the experience was seemless. We were very impressed with and grateful for his assistance.

My wife and I just purchased a house with the assistance of Mike. Right from the beginning stages, he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with the entire process from the beginning all the way to the end. First, we told Mike what we were looking for. Within hours, dozens of homes were sent to us to look at. Once we selected a few homes of our liking, that's when it became clear that he is one of the best agents out there. He met us at every single house, always on time. Mike walked through each home, pointing out features of the homes. In a professional manner, he would let us know the nuances involved in the properties. Some good and some we needed to re-think. Either way, he didn't impose his personal opinions. He treated us like he would treat his own family member. He didn't want to see us in something we wouldn't be safe or happy in. As we narrowed down to the choices and selected our current home, Mike was on point with all the calls, paper work and appointments needed. He was transparent and efficient in his communications with the other agent as well as attorneys and lenders. Many times he went above and beyond his "normal" agent role to assist in a situation or to clarify a document or issue. Without the work of Mike as part of our team, none of the process would have been as efficient and timely. We thank him for all his hard work and dedication to us as his clients. I would highly recommend him to help you with any real estate transaction.

Mike was Very attentive and knowledgeable and an overall great guy. I would definitely recommend him and use him again for future home purchases. He was a pleasure to work with.

Mike was amazing in helping us buy our first home. He was patient, kind, and funny with a real understanding of the neighborhoods we were looking in. He just "gets it" and makes the process of buying a home as easy as it can be. I give him my highest recommendation and would be happy to work with him again!

When we decided to sell our home we interviewed several realtors. Michael was above and beyond what we were looking for. He was honest, hard working, returned calls/texts quickly (even while on vacation). He is a true professional and was easy to work with.

Mike was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable of the neighborhoods and school districts in the areas we looked in. He is very honest and never pushed or pressured us into any properties we looked at. We will definitely we calling Mike for all of our real estate needs in the future!

Michael Tavernise is an excellent broker, and human being. Very patient, very good on preparing his appointments, always on time with everything. Micheal Tavernier found our Grow old, Forever home...thank you Michael.. I recommend him 100%.... With warm regards, James, Sofia Christina and Katerina

We found Mike through a listing of his and here was very informative of the neighborhoods and schools. As we were looking at houses he pointed out pros and cons and really tried to work with us to find our home. He is very detail oriented and kept communicating with us throughout the whole process from finding a house to the negotiations and purchasing process. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to help us find our home. He was great and professional. I highly recommend Mike to anyone.

Michael is an absolutely phenomenal agent. He helped us find the perfect house in Merrick. Michael went above and beyond in every capacity. Local Knowledge - Michael knows Merrick and the surrounding towns (Bellmore, Wantagh, etc) extremely well. He understand the inventory, current market and guides you in the right direction. Process Expertise - The process from start to finish when buying a home can seem daunting. Michael eliminates those concerns right off the bat. He answers all your questions, updates you as the process goes along and give you recommendations to help build the right team -- lawyers, inspectors, etc. Responsiveness - It's immediate. Always getting back to us via text with answers to our questions or about current available homes worth seeing, etc. Negotiation Skills - We bought in a low inventory market so no real negotiating took place. He was honest about the price points of homes though and what were good offers to make. We certainly never felt like we were offering too much under Michael's supervision and guidance. Overal,, Michael is a rockstar and you can't go wrong with him. I will be recommending him to anyone I know looking for a house in Long Island.

We already had a personal relationship with Michael and we had spoken from time to time about our real estate desires. When we finally decided that we were ready to make a move it was natural to enlist Michael's services. He assisted us in executing two smooth and efficient transactions in a short period of time. As far as listing our home for sale, he listened to our requests; was fully accommodating in terms of our schedule; and was comfortable enough with us to make suggestions without being pushy or insistent about anything we did or didn't want to do. There is no question that we would utilize Michael's services "the next time" and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable expert in the industry.

Mike is the best realtor we have ever dealt with and would highly recommend. He went above and beyond for us in every aspect of the sale. We sold our home in the first weekend of showing and was definitely aided by Mike’s work. You can’t go wrong

We contacted Michael for the sale of our home based on professional advice that we received regarding Michael and Mary Ann. Michael guided my family through the sale of our parents’ home. We couldn’t have been more satisfied with the process. Michael promptly and politely answered five adults numerous questions involved in the estate sale. He gave excellent guidance regarding the home sale and our competition. Also, his prompt and thorough follow up with Buyer’s mortgage representatives, provided us an understanding that our prospective Buyer’s ability to close the transaction was accurate. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Michael again or give him anything but the highest recommendation.

Michael was an outstanding real estate agent and partner throughout the entire process. He was incredibly responsive and receptive. Within a couple of weeks, he instinctively knew which homes were right for us, and guided us toward our dream home. We enjoyed his dedication from our first meeting through closing. We can’t recommend Michael enough!

Mike did a great job locating the perfect house for us. He was easy to work with, understood what we wanted and was never pushy. Also, he went into details about every part of the home buying process. He was easy to communicate with and made the overall process very smooth for my husband and I. Overall a great experience and we would totally recommend him to anyone in the market.

Working with Michael Tavernise and his partner Marie Skarren was wonderful! From our very first meeting we knew this was the team for us. They came prepared and patiently answered all of our questions. My husband and I were so impressed with their knowledge,efficiency and caring nature. We had an offer on our house in weeks and eased through the next few months right up until closing. Michael is a outstanding agent and we would highly recommend him and Marie if you are looking to sell your home or buy a new one!!! We love our new home and could not be happier.

Michael Tavernise exceeded our expectations in every way. From the very first time he walked in our door, he proved to be very knowledgeable and professional with his research in hand. His expertise and availability were invaluable during the process of selling and buying our home. He went above and beyond for us, responding to our countless questions, texts and requests with empathy and enthusiasm. Perhaps most importantly, Michael was always ethical and honest. Even when it could have cost him his well-deserved commission, finding us the right home at a fair price was his priority. In the end, it was no surprise when Michael also impressed our attorney by ensuring that the contracts thoroughly addressed every aspect of our sale/ purchase. We were very lucky to have Michael Tavernise in our corner.

Couldn't ask for a nicer guy, from the first day he did anything and everything for us, he was there for us every single time we called, kept us informed every step of the way, didn't mind when kitty constantly attacked and bit him on the ankles, house was sold in four months, above and beyond excellent, stellar service, forever grateful

We couldn't have asked for a better realtor to work with when we sold our home. We encountered a variety of issues outside of everyone's control due to COVID-19 and the shutdown of some county offices (which slowed the title process.) Our first buyer also backed out and we were in the process of relocating out of state. Michael handled every curve ball right along side us - and he made the process so much smoother. He is knowledgable, friendly and very professional. We had intended to interview a couple realtors before listing our home, but after meeting him the first time, we knew he was the one to help us. You can't go wrong with him! Thanks, Michael!

Mike was Very attentive and knowledgeable and an overall great guy. Although covid changed the house looking process, Mike went above and beyond for us. He was always available and willing to assist us with any concerns we had. All in all, the experience was seemless. We were very impressed with and grateful for his assistance. I would definitely recommend him and use him again for future home. We wouldn’t have done it without mike!

We interviewed Real Estate agents Last year in anticipation of selling out N Bellmore home. Mike seemed very knowledgeable and figured a fair selling price higher than the others we interviewed. We called him this year when we were ready to sell and established a post COVID sale price which was substantially higher than last year. Mike did a superb job of marketing our beautiful home and showed it by appointment only. He showed it to about 32 families over a weekend and we received 12 offers all but 1 over asking price. We ended up getting almost 50k over asking. I strongly recommend listing your home with Mike, He is the consummate professional.

Michael Tavernise did an excellent job helping us find our first home. Michael helped us navigate the chaotic COVID pandemic real estate market, including by identifying properties that were a good fit for us, researching them, and moving on them quickly. Michael would always take our calls and texts and was in constant communication about our home search. After just a couple of showings, Michael seemed to know what we wanted in a home better than we did. I recommend Michael to anyone looking for a new home on Long Island.

Michael helped us tremendously when selling our much loved home. He was straight forward and understood the emotions we were feeling. There was humor and calmness throughout the ups and downs of offers and he was always communicating with us no matter day or time. In a short time Michael found the perfect family to love and take care of our home as we did. Thank you Michael

Mike was absolutely fantastic to work with through this whole househunting process! He was knowledgeable and accommodating regardless of the situation! Mike always stayed positive and honest with us when seeing each house that we came across on the market. He did not pressure us into anything and always made us feel comfortable with our decisions. I would highly recommend Mike to help you on your search for your new home! Thank you so much Mike for helping us find a house to make at home- we couldn’t be happier! :)

My husband and I were so thankful to work with Mike during our home search. We started our home search in February of 2022 and after a few months of searching we closed on our perfect home in August. Mike was patient, honest, and always eager to show us homes just as they hit the market to ensure we were one of the first to see it. I also preferred not to go to open houses as I felt discouraged by the competition so Mike made it a point to make sure we had private viewings of homes we loved. Although the market is crazy right now, Mike always made us feel comfortable and confident in our decisions, and gave us expect advice on the neighborhoods we were looking. Mike was always available whenever we needed and always accommodated both Mine and my husbands schedules, even if that meant he spent every weekend with us for the last few months :) We would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking to begin their home search, you will not be disappointed!
