We had the pleasure of working with Kelly Mell during our recent home purchase, and we couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From our first meeting to closing day, Kelly demonstrated exceptional professionalism, dedication, and expertise. What truly set her apart was her attention to detail and commitment to understanding our needs. She took the time to listen to what we were looking for and provided invaluable insights that helped us find the home that meet our explicit needs. Kelly was always available to answer our questions, no matter how small, and she kept us updated every step of the way. Our intention for our new home came with some requirements and she became as knowledgeable as possible to answer our questions. Her dedication to our sale was so impressive.

We recently had the wonderful opportunity to work with Kelly Mell and her team. Our experience was top notch, to say the least. We met Kelly Mell at an open house, which she was conducting for another client. Kelly was so friendly and approachable. So much so, we felt comfortable sitting down with her, right then and there, to share the vision of our dream house. After listening to what we were hoping and wishing for, Kelly told us she was committed to finding it for us! We were hopeful and optimistic but having been disappointed by other realtors who promised the same, we weren’t sure. To our great surprise, Kelly is one realtor who follows through and keeps her promise! She is right on top of the market, so when a home that never hit the market became available, she texted us immediately, knowing it was a gem that matched our vision. Low and behold, she was RIGHT! It was the PERFECT home for us! We made an offer that day and the offer was accepted the next day.

Kelly did a fantastic job in marketing my property and managing the entire sale and closing process. She provided regular updates, followed up on all showing leads, and was in regular communication with the Buyer's Agent. She is detail oriented, well experienced, and knowledgeable in all facets of the real estate industry. In addition, she provided excellent design and staging consultation on this and other projects as well. Kelly and her team have the full package of design, marketing, and real estate expertise that any Seller or Real Estate Investor is looking for. Looking forward to many more projects with Kelly!

It was so incredibly fortunate to meet Kelly a year ago! Being a custom builder for well over 30 years in a 3rd generation company it’s very rare to come in contact with real estate agents that are totally professional and have actually care about their clients. In all my years Kelly stands out at the top of this profession. Her enthusiasm, knowledge of the business, and most importantly her character will win anyone over.
For my home we mutually agreed on an asking price and the first day it went live she got the sale. The market was not doing well at that time which makes this all the more impressive. Through the entire process she was one step of everyone which made for such a wonderful selling and buying process.
Without question Kelly is the only choice if you are looking to find a professional real estate agent. She is simply the best!!

Thank you, again, for making the sale of our family home (of 23 years) so seamless for us!
After our first face-to-face meeting with you, both Eric and I knew — without a doubt — that you were the perfect realtor for us. Why? We loved your positive energy, intensity, empathy, and drive. You spoke with confidence and knowledge (pulling from experience and as well as facts and data) about the whole process, including moving, buying, selling, renting, legalities, the market, resources and much more!
You also did not oversell or overcommit… And you definitely did not underwhelm. You set clear expectations of timing and deliverables, and you held all of us accountable. We were very impressed with your follow-up responses, too — from both a speed and accuracy perspective — for just about any topic.
You put your heart and soul into a project, and it really shows in your results. Your hard work and dedication made this home-selling experience far better than we could have imagined. You made it exciting and fun! We felt a void in our lives from not talking to you after we closed! How many people can say that about their realtor?!
With sincere thanks.

Kelly was truly a dream to work with. We were faced with the emotional and logistical challenge of selling our parents’ cherished home, but from the moment we met her, it was clear we were in expert hands. She brought not only extensive real estate knowledge but also genuine care and compassion throughout the entire process. Kelly offered a wealth of resources, connecting us with trusted professionals to help prepare their home for market, and often stepped in to assist with tasks herself. Her communication was clear, thoughtful, and consistent, keeping us informed every step of the way. What stood out most was how much she fostered a true sense of teamwork. We never felt like we were going through it alone. Thanks to her dedication and guidance, the sale was a success. And by the end, we didn’t just feel like we had a fantastic realtor—we felt like we had gained a friend.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Sophia throughout our home-hunting trip(s) during the winter and into the summer.

Sophia is extremely responsive to requests for information, even after business hours. She guided us step-by-step throughout our home search and purchase process, and that was very much appreciated! We would definitely recommend Sophia for all your real estate needs!

I purchased a home early fall 2025 and was referred to Sophia Yzerman by a good friend of mine. We absolutely hit it off from our first meeting- Sophia was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. She helped walk me through the entire process through closing, and understood my concerns. Sophia was reliable, answering any questions I had 24/7. She also has great connections to all service men in the area. I will certainly recommend anyone in the home buying or selling process to Sophia Yzerman with Crain Homes!

This review is long overdue, but it's high time we express our gratitude for the exceptional service we received from Valentina. Back in late July, we found ourselves at a crossroads, unsure whether to buy or rent a property for our upcoming 4-year relocation to Michigan. Valentina swiftly guided us towards the path of homebuying and demonstrated unwavering dedication to our cause. She hustled tirelessly to accommodate our tight timeline, meticulously presenting us with a range of housing options and ensuring that our offer was swiftly accepted. Her efforts truly made all the difference. We love our new Birmingham home, absolute beautiful neighborhood.

Valentina has been working with us for a couple of years. She has helped us to explore the Detroit real estate market, both for-sale and for-lease properties. My husband and I have found Valentina to be very client-centered, honest, diligent, and knowledgeable. She has taken the time to get to know us and has worked hard to bring us properties that fit what we are looking for. Valentina is also very much of a 'can-do' mindset. She has helped us with the details of moving into new properties, including with moving companies, utilities, and furniture options. She is my go-to person for everything Detroit related. We have bought properties in several different cities, and Valentina is as good a broker as any we have worked with. Most importantly as her clients, we always feel she is 'in our corner.

Her years of experience shines and the process was outstanding!

We had the best experience working with Ashley and Jill. They are super responsive, professional, found us a great house and continue to provide excellent concierge service. Their knowledge of the area has helped us get settled in quickly. We highly recommend them!

I can’t say enough good things about Crain Homes. They helped us buy and sell and took care of every single detail along the way. Almost zero stress when you work with them. We were overjoyed to help them with a housewarming gift for the sweet Lions fans who bought our home.
Thank you Crain Homes, Ashley, Jill, and everyone you had help us. You’re just going to have to hang out with me as friends because you’re stuck with me now!

Kaitlyn is an amazing realtor. She is very knowledgeable about neighborhoods in the metro Detroit area and walked us through the process of buying our first home. She helped us navigate offer negotiation, inspection, and closing. She was patient and proactive and worked hard on our behalf. We trust her and would recommend her to anyone buying or selling their home!

Kaitlyn was an absolute dream to work with as a first time home buyer. My fiancé and I worked dayshift and night shift as hospital employees during our home search and she was flexible and accommodating of our busy schedules. We felt confident that Kaitlyn would help us find our forever home, and she did just that. When submitting our house offer Kaitlyn explained every line of every document we signed thoroughly. She took the time that not many realtors would to make sure that we felt comfortable in our decisions. I could not recommend her more!

Kaitlyn did an excellent job in helping both sell our home and purchasing our new home. The process of both selling and buying a new home can be very confusing and time consuming, Kaitlyn walked thru each step of the process to ensure that everything was completed and understood. Her responsiveness and communication to our multiple questions and inquiries was immediate , no matter what the time. She was extremely professional and went above and beyond with all of our requests. I would recommend to use Kaitlyn as your real estate agent in your next transaction.

Kaitlyn helped me purchase a condo. She worked tirelessly to get me the best deal and made sure I understood the entire process. She stayed composed in stressful situations and her ability to communicate to all of the different stakeholders was extremely impressive. I would recommend her services to anyone who is looking for a real estate agent. The combination of her market knowledge, experience, and personality made her an awesome person to work with. I still can not believe how great of a deal I got on my condo and how easy she made the process all the to getting the keys in my hand!

I had used Janine’s services when we sold our home right after Covid and knew that I needed her help selling my deceased client’s condo. I found that this time Janine far exceeded my expectations. Janine had the right network of vendors for cleaning windows, floors, staging and removal of items that didn’t sell. She handled the pricing and showcasing with ease and got my client’s beneficiaries the best deal during a slow and difficult sales climate! I would not hesitate to recommend or use her services again, she is “simply the best”!

Janine is so knowledgeable. She is supportive and helpful in everything you need. She is patient, prompt and lets you know every step of the way. Her kindness and gentle response, never did I worry, I could have never done this without her. Everyone who knows her feels the same way, she is respected and liked by all who know her. My home sold before it was even open to the market. She is so organized, she informs you of everything before you even have to ask. I highly recommend Janine! Not only is she my realtor but a great friend forever!

Going into the home buying process we heard horror stories of the market and how difficult it would be to find a home that met our needs. We were fully expecting to settle for a home that was not exactly what we were looking for or pay way too much. Working with Kaitlyn was so amazing. She immediately found us homes in our budget and after a day of looking we found our house and had an offer accepted within that same week. Our house exceeded our expectations and Kaitlyn was so easy to work with and helpful through every step of the process. We are so grateful!

Kaitlyn was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was extremely reliable, responsive, and professional. She has a good mind for the strategy of renting/buying homes and is very considerate of the wishes and needs of her clients.
