Daphne was an amazing help with our home buying process! She was kind, respectful and patient with us. She knew we were first time homebuyers and took time to help us every step of the way. She offered suggestions and insight on things that we would have never thought of. I will be recommending Daphne to anyone looking to buy a home!

Daphne was an absolute pleasure to work with! As first-time home buyers, we truly appreciated her patience, kindness, and extensive knowledge. She was always professional, responsive to our questions, and a strong advocate for us throughout the entire process. Daphne made us feel supported every step of the way and consistently went above and beyond for us. We are extremely grateful and will absolutely be recommending Daphne to anyone we know who is looking to buy or sell a home!

Katrina went above and beyond in so many ways. As an entrepreneur, securing a loan can be challenging. As an extremely busy person, I can be a handful to deal with, but she understood and stepped up to the plate. She even went as far as being on hold with the IRS for me while I was busy running my business. She worked with me every step of the way and was willing to do anything needed to get the job done. So thankful for her ability to make things happen. Highly recommend her as well as her team.

We met Nicole at an open house and were immediately impressed by her professionalism. She expertly guided us and sometimes was our eyes when we could not travel back to Maine from New Jersey. She understood exactly what we were looking for and expertly navigated us through the Maine real estate market. We feel truly lucky to have found such a dedicated and enthusiastic realtor. We are now in dream home in Maine.

Katrina Manker and Elevate Maine were nothing but a pleasure to work with during our home buying experience! Buying a home isn’t easy, but she was with us every step of the way, advocating for our best interest and even working with the sellers to remediate all sorts of stuff from radon to electrical prior to move in. Thank you, Katrina!

Working with Elevate Maine Realty—Primarily with Mike, Melanie & Caleb—was an exceptional experience from start to finish. In one of the most challenging and fiercely competitive seller favored markets ever, they managed to deliver something we didn’t think was possible: our perfect starter home. A perfectly sized bungalow on the end of a short dead end road in Scarborough. From day one, Mike and Melanie were professional, proactive, and incredibly tuned in to our needs. They took the time to truly understand our family and provide invaluable guidance throughout the buying process. Despite the low inventory and rapid pace of the real estate market in Maine, they stayed persistent and optimistic, never letting us feel discouraged. What impressed us most was how closely they hit the mark—finding a home that checked almost all of the amenities on our wish list, in a zip code we didn’t think we’d be able to afford. Their strategic approach, responsiveness, Mikes incredible depth of knowledge, and commitment to fighting for our best interests made all the difference. If you’re looking for a team that combines expertise, tenacity, and genuine care, look no further than Mike, Melanie and the team at Elevate Maine Realty. We cannot recommend them highly enough. They didn’t just help us buy a house—they helped us start a new chapter.

Michael and the Elevate Team got the job done. We were extremely particular on location of a house so the house hunt took a good amount of time. Looked at many homes. He was patient, thorough, knowledgeable, and just knew what he was doing. Always came prepared and nothing was a surprise come closing. Quick to respond to our many questions. Would absolutely use Elevate again.

We cannot recommend Michael Navarro highly enough! From the first step to the final walk-through, Michael was an incredible advocate and guide. He expertly managed all the complex and time-sensitive details, from ensuring we signed critical disclosures on time to navigating the high-pressure deadlines of the due diligence period. When we had questions about confusing closing costs, Michael didn't just guess—he gave us clear instructions on who to contact and what to ask for to get a full breakdown. His communication was constant and reassuring, especially when coordinating the final closing details like the walk-through and the cashier's check. Michael is patient, incredibly diligent, and truly cares about his clients. If you're looking for an agent who will fight for you and make the process smooth, choose Michael Navarro.

Michael and the Elevate Team are exceptional and extraordinary. Their focus is in establishing a long term relationship with their clients -not trying to simply score a commission. There is a level of trust that comes with this which makes them our valued partners with these large asset investments. As homeowners and investors we have completed 5 transactions with Michael in the last 5 years. He has personally been responsible for getting us a better price on each side of the sales table, and we are experienced buyers ! We have had “fixers” and we have had “showoff” homes, and he has always invested the same respect and energy for us and our properties regardless of the price point. We are also extremely impressed by their commitment to Maine and their community. Character counts and it carries over to all they do. You simply want Michael and Elevate on your team. Thanks Michael !!

I can’t recommend Michael Navarro and his team at Elevate Realty highly enough - they are absolutely the best. Whether you are a commercial, residential, 1031 exchange, first time or senior buyer (we have hit most of these categories ourselves with Elevate !!), choosing a realtor is the most important decision you can make for your real estate transaction. Attention to detail, experience, flexibility, sound feedback and property/financial recommendations along with the understanding are what they deliver in a friendly and professional manner. His networking and contacts are both extensive and TOP NOTCH, whether you are seeking financing, a water testing service, home inspector, etc. This is incredibly valuable and an extraordinary resource. I’ve had numerous realty transactions over the years and the pleasure of having Michael represent me as both buyer and seller, and I only wish he was available in other states !

Genevieve is a pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable about the market and understands the nuances to getting a transaction done. Genevieve truly has the needs of her clients at the forefront of her approach and is committed to finding the right opportunity for the best outcome.

Where to even start!!!! (SUPER long story short) First off, 2 years ago I gave Mike and Melanie an unattainable task of selling my old home. Not only was this task completed, it was completed with unimaginable obstacles in the way. (miracle #1) Now fast forward 2 years. I came upon some financial and personal issues, and I was at the end of my rope financial with my new house, that I loved. So again I called Mike and Melanie (my saviors). I said to them what EVERY realtor dreams of hearing, "I need you to sell my house". Well, for every realtor the response to that is simple, "OK". That was not the response I got from Mike and Melanie. They responded with, "why"? So I explained the situation. They immediately put me in contact with Jason at CMG Mortgage. Selling was not the best case for my situation, refinancing was. So, as of yesterday, I alone, own the same house that I love for over $900.00 less per month that I was paying before. On my ride home from the refinance closing yesterday A LOT hit me. I was feeling on top of the world and I realized one simple word had lead me to this path. "WHY?" Elevate Maine Reality made $0.00, but they helped me out more then any dollar amount could. They threw out the business practice playbook and only used the humanity manuscript. That is a rare thing in this world and in this cutthroat occupation. Every commercial out there for realtors says that they are the king of reality-and the king of selling. They can sell anything. ("Why be a king, when you can be a god" - Ellevate Maine Realty) Is selling always really what you want? Even if you don't know it? There are no words to explain the gratitude I have for Mike and Melanie and EVERYONE at Ellevate Maine Realty!!!!!!! Hands down the only compassion still left in this world of realty!

Genevieve was unfaltering in her dedication to finding me a home! She eased my anxiety about the process and was always available to answer my questions. Thanks Genevieve and Elevate!

Genevieve was fantastic to work with. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions and uncertainty about the process. She walked me through everything and was very patient. I was also looking for a needle in a haystack and there was not a single house on the market in my budget in the exact location I wanted. Genevieve called in her connections and even made new connections for me, putting in tons of legwork to develop new leads. I couldn’t be happier with the level of service she provided!

Michael Navarro and the team at Elevate Maine are terrific! Twice now we have placed our trust in him to sell our property, and he did a fantastic job each time. We highly recommend Elevate Maine for any real estate needs.

Genevieve was fantastic to work with from start to finish. She was so responsive and went out of her way to make sure we saw the houses we wanted to see, she was a rockstar with helping us come up with offer strategies and she very quickly got on the same page as to what we were looking for and dealt with our picky and sometimes indecisive ways. Ultimately we ended up in a home that is perfect for our family and we couldn’t have done it without her!

We were contacted through Aziza Perkins to preform basic routine real estate inspection work. (Installing smoke detectors throughout the building) provided a quote, which was approved through elevate Maine. Preformed the job on the agreed date. Has been 3 months and no communication from them about payment, besides hanging the phone up when you can regarding payment. Would not trust them to be on your side when it comes to purchasing a home.

Working with Michael was one of the best decisions we have ever made. He was communicative, knowledgeable, and honest from the first phone call. Not only did he make our home sale seamless, but he made every effort to take care of us as individuals. He facilitated this sale without us having to lift a finger, and simultaneously protected our interests. We will be recommending Michael to anyone who is looking to buy or sell in Southern Maine.

Christy was an absolute delight to work with! She is knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We purchased sight unseen and it was in great part her attention to detail and open nature that made us confident to go forward. We are so glad we did and that we met Christy through this process! 5 stars plus plus.

We feel so lucky to have connected with Genevieve at Elevate as we set out to find our forever home. From the first conversation, we clicked with her and felt instantly comfortable in her hands. Genevieve’s knowledge of the area was invaluable for two people not that familiar with Maine. Even when there were not needing any action from us, she was great at keeping in touch - without being pushy or overwhelming. Later in the process, when we were trying to secure home owners insurance, we were stuck on a vague and annoying form provided by an insurance broker. When we reached out to Genevieve with our questions, she jumped into action and quickly problem-solved. By the end of the day, we were covered! Finally, when we met Genevieve in person for the first time at the property, it honestly felt like we were meeting a dear friend. She was so warm, engaging, and just laser focused on helping us in any way she could. We cannot imagine how we would have navigated this journey without her steady hand at the helm. We highly recommend working with Genevieve!

Kayla Brown! I just had an excellent closing with her for a first-time home buyer client. She did an excellent job managing the transaction and got two happy buyer to the closing table. Great job, Kayla. Highly recommend!

Hello everyone I am Mpila writing this comment because I never saw the Best agents like you Smartest, wisdom, strong, kind person I never meet before in my career they never fail but always Win ✌️ 🥇 🏅 🏆 Thank you so much for doing always your efforts to satisfied customers! May GOD bless you a lot and bring you HIGH and HIGHER Success! ELEVATE⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Daphne was wonderful! I worked with her virtually and then in person, and she put in so much effort to make sure I found a fantastic place. She was always available and went the extra mile to make sure I had all of the information I needed about each property. I highly recommend Elevate!

Melanie and the Elevate team as a whole were an absolute pleasure to work with! Melanie got to know us not only as clients, but as people. She listened carefully to what we were looking for in a potential home and we're forever grateful. It was important for us to be close to our family and friends. We also love being in the thick of things and had our hearts set on staying in our beautiful Portland. The home we found was nothing less than magical and within our budget. We can't wait to grow our family in our perfect home and we have Elevate to thank!

5 stars and more!!! Melanie and all of the Elevate team were friendly, professional and experienced. From our first call, meeting and down to closing day Melanie stayed up to date and really took the time at every corner to deliver us exactly what we were looking for; Giving us a flawless experience. Highly recommended!!

Michael and Melanie at Elevate were wonderful to work with to buy our first home. They spent time educating us throughout the process to ensure that we were informed homebuyers. They were quick to respond to questions, and prompt at getting showings scheduled. They took so much time to research the homes that we liked so that we felt extremely confident with every offer we made. And when some of those offers didn't work out, they were there to lift us up and assure us that the right one would come along. We ended up with our dream home and that is because of Michael and Melanie. I would strongly recommend any other homebuyers to work with them. They are the best! Thank you guys so very much.

The Elevate Team of Melanie, Michael, and Amanda provides outstanding and personalized service for their clients. It's an honor working with them and so fun to see how great that they take care of their clients.

What an outstanding experience working with this amazing team. I highly recommend Melanie and Michael. We couldn’t be happier with the results and efforts that they put into making our first time buying experience nothing short of amazing! Thank you guys so much!

I cannot say enough about the dynamic duo of Michael and Melanie at Elevate. I closed on my house in Standish and bought a mobile home on the 22nd of March. The team at Elevate promised that they would help me to sell my house and find a suitable home to move into. I am a 76 year old woman who had to sell a home I had lived in for 29 years. Michael, Melanie and Amanda all pitched in to help get my house ready to show. They were in contact with me throughout the process, from calling to check on me to numerous words of encouragement and advice . They are truly caring people. They put the clients’ needs first. I have never before worked with people who were genuinely in business to help people. I came to personally care a great deal about them. I hope they keep in touch with me on my new journey. I recommend them without hesitation. Love you guys! ❤️❤️❤️

When it comes to the process of selling and buying, we are in the thick of it, and I am more than grateful to have both Melanie and Michael on our side. Elevate Maine is truly here to change up the experience of purchasing and selling real estate. This is our fourth sale and purchase journey, and by far the most guided, supported and patient process we have been through. They are walking through this right along side of us, processing any and all of our frustrations as we navigate through this tricky market. This team could not be more invested in ensuring that their clients are not only satisfied with the process and end product, but also educated and empowered about the steps they are taking. Thank you both, the dedication you have put into building Elevate show in the work you provide to your clients, I know our home is our there and Elevate Maine will find it!

Could not be more impressed with Melanie and the Elevate team! We went under contract the day we toured our dream home! Melanie & Michael have been responsive, super knowledgeable, and fun to work with. I feel 100% confident and trust them whole-heartedly with this process! 10/10!!

Melanie was extremely helpful.such a wonderful team! Thank you!

Michael and his team were incredible from the beginning to the end. I am extremely grateful for such a smooth process and the professionalism of the team as well as the warmth and kindness that Michael always brings to his work.

The Elevate team has been wonderful to work with on my home buying journey. They are fast, friendly, and efficient, with superb knowledge of the Portland market. They assisted me in finding homes within my search criteria, making appointments to see them, communicating with listing agents, and assisting me with putting together offers that worked for me financially. Thanks to Elevate, I had an offer accepted, and successfully closed just over a month later! They ran comps on the selling price to ensure it would pass the appraisal, and when I was unavailable to meet the home inspector they were there and provided their feedback. They also recommended loan officers and home insurance companies that could provide competitive rates. AND they caught an error in the closing disclosures document, which we were able to fix before closing. All in all, the experience was excellent!!

There aren’t enough positive words to express how well Michael has guided us through multiple real estate transactions over the past few years.. He’s extremely thorough, honest, knowledgeable, reliable, and truly cares about his clients. Michael is the best and I highly recommend him!

Michael helped us navigate buying and selling a property as newcomers to the USA. We truly could not have done it without him. His advice was always sound and he was reliable and efficient. He is a warm and thoughtful person and really a pleasure to do business with.

Micheal is a very trusted realtor. My family adores him and honestly helped us found a house that was best suited for us.

Three years ago my family and I met Michael Navado to help us to get our first mortgage. He was a blessing to me and my family; I knew him through a friend of mine ( Bibiche) whom he helped to get their first mortgage as well. Mike is someone I would recommend to anyone who wants to get a mortgage or get into a business of real estate; he never slept when he has a job that needs to be done. He answers his phone even after business hours! If you are not a computer person to upload and attach documents, Mike is there to help. He doesn’t only do his job to make money but professionally and customer satisfaction. I knew him from my friend because of his wonderful work . He is again helping me to get a second mortgage after only three years. If he didn’t satisfied me before I wouldn’t go back to him again. Thank you very Mike for the work you do for our communities without expecting reciprocal. Keep it up and stay blessed Kasa

Knowledgeable, professional and so helpful!

It was a pleasure working with Melanie. Her attention to detail and communication is the absolute best! If you are buying or selling, you will be glad Melanie’s there to provide her expertise and understanding of your individual needs.

Great friendly service

Michael and Sebastian were wonderful to work with. They were there for me every step of the way on the road to finding a new home. I recommend them wholeheartedly.

Michael is an absolutely outstanding realtor - providing the rare combination of professionalism, market and locale knowledge/insights, industry experience, savvy negotiation and strong communication skills. Combined with his energy and enthusiasm, he is is an absolute rock star ! As experienced homeowners, vacation property owners and real estate investors, (we've bought over 30 properties in multiple states over the last 34 years) we can report that it is rare to find an agent with ALL of these qualities, but with Michael we did. There is no greater review than recommending a realtor to your own kids. Michael helped our younger son find and purchase his first home, advising him on all aspects of home ownership along the way. He is their go-to person for planned future investments and we are all thrilled to have Michael as a resource.

Michael has represented my family in the sale and subsequent purchase of our home and I only have good things to say. He is diligent in his representation; providing sound and ethical advice. Michael is experienced and professional, always thinking about every strategy while keeping your needs in mind. He listens to your thoughts and concerns, and addresses them directly, giving you the power to control your sale and purchase in a market that is very unforgiving. It is reassuring to know that agents like him are available to represent your interests and assist you in making major life decisions. Stop searching because you've found your team in Elevate!

We recently used Michael Navarro to sell our home in Cumberland, and we cannot speak more highly of Michael, his colleague Sebastian, and the complete process Michael led us through. While we were excited to move, we put an enormous amount of blood, sweat, and tears into our home over the preceding nine years, and the idea of leaving was met with mixed emotions. Michael was honest, straight-forward, and communicative throughout the process. His suggestions on pricing and listing strategies were spot-on, and with something like 12 days between the idea of selling and being under contract, he demonstrated his deep knowledge of the market, the sellers, and the kinds of buyers that would be looking for our particular type of home & property. Managing sellers' expectations cannot always be easy; it is an emotional roller coaster for many like us, but Michael's patience and positive attitude kept us at ease. His ability to communicate effectively with both of us (each requiring a different amount and frequency of communication) was impressive. We know we were not his only clients at the time, but it sure felt like we were based on the red carpet treatment he provided. We cannot thank him (& Sebastian) enough, and we will certainly use them again with our next transaction. Do yourself a favor and call Michael Navarro to sell or buy your next Maine property! Ben & Hannah

I have worked with Michael and his team on finding two houses in the past few years and have had nothing short of a wonderful experience. Not only is he an all around great human being and a pleasure to work with, but he is also singularly driven to get you the best house and deal possible. We shopped during the pandemic and were up against cash offer after cash offer. I simply couldn’t be that competitive but Michael made it work! He kept my spirits up and found me a house where we were up against a cash offer and they still picked us. He worked his connections and set me up with the great local contacts - magic was made. Don’t hesitate to work with this exemplary team!

Michael is bound to exceed your expectations. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my real estate needs! He communicates well and is trustworthy. 10/10

Working with Melanie and her team has been a great experience, due to her professionalism, expertise, and hard work. She let me go at my own speed when listing my home and has been patient throughout the buying process. Not enough realtors have the integrity that she does.

10 out of 10 would recommend. Melanie was super motivated to help us find the perfect home for our family. She went above and beyond to meet our needs and answer all our questions. Always communicating with us everything step of the way.

Michael and Melanie have been amazing every step of the way. Nothing but clear, concise communication. This is our 3rd time buying a home, so we are pretty familiar with the typical process. Buying and selling a home (particularly doing both at once) can be a very stressful and emotionally taxing undertaking, but they have made it as easy as possible, and have always made our needs and wants their top priority. They have always had a clear plan for every step of the process and kept us in the loop with all of it. We’re hoping not to move again any time soon, but if that ever changes, I will be calling them immediately. I will emphatically recommend them to all of my closest friends and family. Thank you Team Elevate!!

Michael and Sebastian were both wonderful to deal with every step of the way in assisting with the sale of our home. Great communication, knowledge, attention to detail and their real estate expertise made for a smooth transaction. We were very happy with the way they showcased our home. The description of all documents we reviewed or needed to sign were explained to us in a clear and concise way which was very comforting. We hit some snags along the way (through no fault of the agency) and they were able to seamlessly navigate through it all and keep the process going. We would highly recommend

Michael was so amazing! He helped with everything we needed, answered all our questions. We definite felt like he was looking out for us every step of the way and even after. He definite helped ease the stress of the whole experience. We feel like he has gone above and beyond in so many different ways. We are forever grateful to him for helping us obtain our dream home. Michael will be our realtor for all of our needs now and in the future.

No complaints his à handsome man I don’t regret anything they doing Excellent Job he understood the situation his helpful man is really really good team to work with.Michael I want to tell you that you are number one and I promise you I will always work with you all the time.Thank you so much Michael.

Michael is the best, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. He is incredibly professional and knowledgeable, taking care and time to guide me through the process and answer all my questions.

As foreigners who bought their first home in the US Michael was brilliant in explaining all the local nuances. No question was too silly and he guided us through every aspect of purchasing a home. He truly invests himself in every client and their needs and was a huge help to us. We could not have secured our dream property without him. He is friendly and a joy to work with and always available. Highly recommend Michael!

Michael made the house hunting/buying process very enjoyable and positive for us during an otherwise stressful year due to COVID-19. He did an outstanding job educating us on everything that we needed to know as first time home buyers, was always quick to respond to all of our questions, and went above and beyond to get us every detail for each house that we looked at. His knowledge of the area was also a great help to us as we are relatively new to Maine, and he made the negotiations and closing process stress free. We very much enjoyed working with Michael and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the area.
