Ariel is a real estate unicorn with the perfect blend of passion and professionalism. She always follows up and follows through. As a busy professional, she made sure I knew and followed every step of the process without feeling overwhelmed. Whether you are buying or selling a property, you want Ariel in your corner negotiating on your behalf. She will get the deal done efficiently and at the right price. She is very well connected to local professionals, and was able to connect me with others for every aspect of my purchase. I would happily work with her again and recommend her to anyone.

We connected with Ariel twice, and both times she was phenomenal! First when we were feeling out buying a home, and again (a year later) when we were feeling more ready and serious about doing it- she remembered what we were interested in, and made changes to the search when we changed our preferences. Buying a house in the Covid-19 pandemic era is not an easy thing, but it would have been much harder without her help and hard work.
Ariel is kind, honest, and supportive, and has a real talent for understanding what it is a buyer wants. We were not super clear on our vision for a home when we started, and through talking with her, seeing properties, and getting acquainted with the home-buying process, we felt really good about making the offer and signing the paperwork at the end of it. She was a great advocate in the negotiation process and responded quickly when we were stressed out about how things would go down. We'll be recommending Ariel to all of our connections that might be looking for a house in the coming years!

Ariel provided a level of service, care and attention to us during our house hunt that was absolutely outstanding. She was 100% on all the time and made our home buying process as seamless as possible. She took time to ensure we saw a variety of houses and recommended us to other people in her network including attorneys, house inspection companies and much more. She even brought out an independent contractor on her own to help us solve a potential roof issue. Most importantly, Ariel knew how to put together a strong offer that worked for our budget which ultimately lead to us getting our dream house, beating out 5 other offers on the table! She is amazing.

We used Ariel to buy a house and sell our house. It was an extremely stressful process to purchase the house due to Covid, which we only heard about for the first time the day after we made the offer and it was accepted. Ariel was responsive to every question we had, usually within minutes. She is resourceful, honest, hard working, kind, and incredibly patient. We had issues come up with both houses and Ariel guided us through them all. I think the highest compliment of all is that we would use her again when the time comes to move again. We trust her and know she will look out for our best interests.

We recently made the decision to move back to Ann Arbor from Florida. When Covid happened we moved our plans up a bit because of the uncertainty of things. Our home in Florida sold quickly so we needed a place to live and we were hoping we wouldn't need to rent and move twice. Ariel quickly responded to all of our needs and concerns. She was able to get into a house we were interested in immediately and didn't push us when we were uncertain. It's challenging to buy a home that you can't actually see in person, but those are the times we live in. Ariel was honest about some homes we considered if she thought they may not be right for us. Michigan was in full lock time at that time, and flying up to view houses was not a possibility.Thankfully our daughter lives here and previously worked with Ariel so she was able to view homes for us with Ariel. Throughout the process Ariel was constantly available and facilitated the inspections, the mortgage process and all of our other needs. She has continued to check in and see how things are going. We were able to purchase the home we originally considered because a deal fell through and we made an offer that same day. We love our new home and neighborhood. We plan to stay here a long time, but highly recommend her to anyone that has real estate needs.

She was amazing for out of town buyers, even in the midst of a pandemic. Her local connections helped our bid to be the one chosen by the seller. Our process moved quickly and Ariel was available to answer questions at any time. I will be recommending her to anyone I meet who is looking for a home in Ann Arbor.

Ariel helped us both buy and sell, and she was great for both. As an Ann Arbor native, she knows the neighborhoods and understands the market forces at work, both with our own house and with each of the houses we considered buying. She has a deep bench of service-providers for things like lenders, inspectors, maintenance-providers, and we had an excellent experience with each company to which she referred us. Finally, she was a great advocate for us. She really went to bat for our interests and did a lot of things behind the scenes to make the process smooth and as painless as possible. We highly recommend Ariel to anyone who is interested in buying or selling in the Ann Arbor area.

Ariel is outstanding. She is intelligent and incredibly knowledgeable. She knows everything about Ann Arbor and has a deep understanding of the neighborhoods, schools, and real estate market. She was never pushy yet gave solid, decisive advice. Additionally, she is warm and it was a pleasure to go through the house hunting process with her. We give her our highest recommendation!

We had an great experience with Ariel. She was professional and incredibly competent from beginning to end. She guided us through the process of buying and, two years later, selling our first home. The Ann Arbor market is crazy and she helped make it all manageable. We also came out of the sale with a healthy profit, which was of course a nice bonus.

Ariel was fantastic! We sold our home of nearly 20 years due to a job transfer, while excited for the opportunity but leaving Ann Arbor was emotional. We could always count on her to be on top of things. We appreciated her friendly, professional attitude! From arranging for top notch photos for the listing, to being present at the open house, to thoughtful timely communication - she went above and beyond! We highly recommend Ariel Hurwitz-Greene.

Ariel Hurwitz-Greene helped us sell our 90-year-old home in Ann Arbor prior to our move out of town. Ariel was astute about helping us determine what aspects of our home needed updating. She respected our budget and never pushed us toward unnecessary fixes. She likewise had good sense about what upgrades would help the house pop, and she often pointed us toward people or businesses who could be trusted to get the work done. Ariel was patient and informative as we put the house on the market and answered all our questions during the offer and closing phases. She was sensitive about the things that mattered to us and our neighborhood and always notified us promptly of any developments during the sale process. We were fortunate to work with Ariel on the successful sale of our home. We recommend her highly!

Ariel was our agent in 2015 when we purchased a condo in Saline MI. She listened to our needs and wants, kept us in the area where we wanted to live and stayed true to our budget. She was organized, detailed, supportive and timely. We sold the condo in 2017 and again she handled all the details and kept us on task. We sold it after one showing and the closing went off without a hitch. We moved to Indiana and I would have used her services there is we could have. She is the best.

I used Ariel to buy my last home, and I liked her well enough to hire her to sell it as well 2.5 years later (actions speak larger than words). She made the whole process incredibly easy, picked the right prices to bid and to sell given the market and neighborhood. But what sets her apart I think is her willingness to go the extra mile to be sure the transition goes well. For example, I could not stick around to be sure the furniture in my house made it on the donation truck, so she did that for me, then dropped off the stuff they couldn't take at the thrift store. Really beyond the call of duty. But that is just the way she is. She has an excellent contact list of professionals who can evaluate homes or price out what it would take to fix it up for sale. She has been a resident of Ann Arbor for a long time so if you can let her know what type of family you are she can go a long way towards finding the perfect site for you.

Ariel did a great job throughout the entire process of getting our home sold. When we were preparing to put the house on the market, she: provided recommendations for various contractors for things we needed to get done (e.g., painters, cleaning, etc.), as well as advice about how to best show the house, what to expect in the current market and what the process would be like. She was prompt, courteous and responsive in all communications and worked with us remotely when we could not be in the area. I would highly recommend Ariel!

We had a great experience with Ariel as our buyer's agent.
We visited a home during an open house, but at the time it was over budget, especially with the renovations we saw that were needed. Then we saw the house had a price reduction. We then called to setup an appointment to see the home again. We didn't know Ariel prior, but she picked up the phone and was able to get us to see the home later that day. By the close of the weekend we submitted our offer through her and we're done negotiating in less than a week. We were able to get the home within our budget. We were so excited! Though, the hard part wasn't over. We wanted to do renovations. We asked Ariel for recommendations and ended up using the same contractor she used. The home is now perfect for my family. The contractor, B and T construction with Bob Bartlett, did an amazing job. His team did a huge renovation in less than 3 months to get us in for Christmas. He also made the home safer for my family since it was an older home. Thanks to Ariel for helping make our dream home possible!!

My home buying process with Ariel was a breeze! I had the very rare process of liking my first home (I did a lot of online research and was specific in what I wanted), and my first offer was accepted. She knew details about a previous offer being accepted and falling through and knew the sellers were motivated so was able to recommend a great offer that was accepted, and also helped with adjustments for the inspection. Throughout the process, any hiccups that came up (like a furniture delivery unexpectedly arriving EARLY, before the closing) were handled very smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and will use her when I'm ready for another home!

As a picky and uncertain first-time buyers, we couldn't have found a better broker than Ariel. We visited nearly 20 properties over a stretch of 11 months. We never felt pressured to act as the search dragged on, and she was completely understanding when things were on hold. She did not make a fuss over bidding offers or even after we changed our mind.
She was also quick to respond over text and email, even late into the evenings. She was never afraid to nag people (especially our lender) to obtain information required to process offers. She created the listings that would suit our taste and preferences, but she also knew to share those interesting finds outside our parameters that we'd consider.
Looking back, she made the right suggestions that got our offer accepted. She calmly and methodically handled each step of a very frustrating application process. She herded all the moving parts (including us) and picked up the slack to get things done on time and correctly. We always thank to her for getting us the house we loved and, we'd always go back to her. Thank you Ariel. YOU ARE THE BEST.

Ariel expertly navigated the sale of my rental property. While I now live 2,500 miles from Ann Arbor, she kept me in the loop throughout the process, from the initial property review through every showing. Her local knowledge of the neighborhood helped drive a ton of traffic through what is traditionally the slowest period of the year, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with.
Ariel - thanks for your hard work, tenacity and enthusiasm in completing the sale!

We were looking for a specific kind of condo in a specific area, on short notice with a short time-frame. Ariel managed to find just what we were looking for, took us to see it, and helped us through the entire process of buying it mainly via email and phone. She was always very responsive and quickly got back to us when we had questions or couldn't understand some documentation. Always cheerful and willing to help, too!

There is not a way for me to overstate how helpful Ariel has been with the sale of our home. When we moved from Ann Arbor, Ariel offered to list our home for us. When it became obvious that we were going to lose money, Ariel referred us to a property management company that saved our lives -- we were moving out of state and there is no way we could have rented our house from so far away. Ariel sent me market updates in our community every 3 or 4 months for a period of TWO YEARS!!!!! Finally it looked like a good time to list, and it sold in less than a month.
Ariel responds quickly, is always friendly and understanding of our families situation at the time, and is incredibly knowledgeable of the market in and around Ann Arbor. We have loved working with her and heartily recommend her to anyone in need of an agent.

Ariel has helped me sell a house that was very difficult to sell, and buy a house with very specific needs in mind. She is steady, tenacious, balanced, successful at what she does...and very, very nice - a combination you don't often find in any professional. I recommend her without reservation. You will not be disappointed if you have her as an agent.

Ariel turned out to be a critical contributor to our quest for a new home. Especially considering that this was our first home in the states. She shined through enormous patience and an outstanding ability to find us the exact home we were looking for. I would like to highlight that I´m an architect, the more a very critical, and hard to satisfy, audience when it comes to real estate. The more impressive was Ariels performance in finding us the right home.
A very satisfied customer

After a challenging nine-month listing that included three offers that were rescinded because of repairs identified during inspections, our house at 1305 Edgewood Ave. closed last week thanks to a great deal of hard work by Ariel Hurwitz-Greene.
We first started talking to Ariel a couple of years ago when we were thinking of selling our house in Ann Arbor in order to move within town. Ariel initially helped us as a buyers agent, but we decided against moving at that time.
Last spring when I accepted a job offer that would take my wife and I to Florida, we talked with four different sellers agents before deciding on signing with Ariel. We loved Ariel's down to earth manner. as well as her honesty and eagerness to help us sell our house. Ariel made the process of listing the house as easy as possible, and we moved south knowing our house was in good hands.
We received the first offer on our house almost immediately, but the inspection process uncovered issues that would cause three different offers to fall through over the next six months. During this very stressful time where we needed to get a great deal of work done on the house, Ariel was right there with us and helped us through all the challenges.
Going into the process of selling our house, both Ariel as well as my wife and myself expected things to go smoothly and quickly. Despite the fact that our house went from being an easy sell to being a challenging listing that had to go on and off the market repeatedly, Ariel's level of enthusiasm and helpfulness never waned.
Ariel felt more like a business partner than a real estate agent. She not only guided us through all the challenges we encountered, but she also handled all the small tasks the same way she handled the big tasks, with attention to detail.
Ariel is truly a gem and so I wanted to make sure I took the time to let you know how highly we think of Ariel.
Although we are very relieved to have our sale closed, and to have that challenging chapter behind us, I will miss interacting with Ariel. I can only hope that the next agent we work with at some point in the future will be able to meet the high standards that Ariel set.
