Michael went above and beyond the role of a Seller's Agent in assisting me with a short sale that was further complicated by an unresponsive Lender; the downfall in the economy; and a tricky Indian Land Lease, Sub-lease, and required purchase of such. Michael stuck in with me for an unbelievable 3+ years and never allowed me to give up. He was my constant source of information and emotional support. You would be hard pressed to find a Realtor- whether assisting you with a purchase or the sale of a home - that is more willing to assist you and provides the required knowledge along the way.

Michael stepped up to the plate beautifully when the Agent we had flown in to meet with forgot about us and was a "no show". We were so glad this happened as Michael's knowledge of the Desert cities and the Real Estate market are exemplary. He educated us so well that we found our wonderful property over the course of a weekend. In addition, he is thoughtful and really listens to his clients.

This is by far the BEST realtor we have ever dealt with. We do recommend him to anyone looking for someone. Michael is extremely prompt, up beat, knows what's going on and can advise you, and will tell you the truth, something others don't. This is a great person to have on your team.

For over 30 years I have invested in real estate. Michael is more than five stars..he knows the market both for buyers and sellers. Michael listed my rental property in Palm Springs, CA. He is in the Real Estate business for the long run. He is a true professional.

I have worked with Michael on a few occasions. I have found Michael to be very knowledeable about the market in my area. He provided guidance when I was looking for an investment property. He has also helped me find a renter for the property which I acquired. I look forward to working with Michael again when the need arises.

Michael has been our realtor in two different transactions here in the desert. No one is more knowledgable about this market than he is. He always listened to our criteria and steered us away from problem properties saving us time and headaches. No realtor will work harder for you than Michael Layton.

Michael did a short sale for me and was very familiar with the process. He was super responsive and the sale went off without a hitch. I would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him for any real estate transaction in the desert!
