I started my search for a home not knowing if I wanted a single family house, a condo, or a
mobile home. This is the first time I have purchased a home and know absolutely nothing
about real estate or the process. Someone I work with suggested I find a Broker that does
the lending instead of going to a big bank. I was looking online at homes for sale and saw
Carlile Properties. I went to their website and found they offer lending, so I contacted
them. I was put in touch with Michael Giancanelli. He helped me find which type of home
would be best for me . Michael has always been honest and trustworthy, never pushing me
into something more than I could afford or that would end up being not worth what I would
pay for it. I am amazed at how much work he put into finding me the right home. He has
been extremely patient with all my questions. He was always available and professional.
He calmed me down during my “first time buyer ” panics and when I got disappointed or
discouraged he always told me we would find my perfect home and he was right. The seller
accepted my offer and I am now in the paperwork phase of the purchase. I will recommend
Michael to anyone looking for a home and most likely those who aren’ t. Michael made my
experience enjoyable, and believe me, I’m not the easiest person to deal with. I am also not
one to give someone a pat on the back if they don’ t deserve it, Michael deserves it. I am still
amazed at how hard he works.
