What Past Clients Have Said About Mike
To Mike Gibson and the Joe Hayden Real Estate Team, I can't thank you enough for the assistance and guidance you provided during my recent home purchase. You and the rest of the team were professional, informative, responsive and patient during EVERY step of the process. I always felt comfortable that you had my best interest at heart. You made a potentially difficult process relatively easy. Mike truly has the "heart of a teacher", and gained my full trust during this process. If I ever have any future real estate needs in this area, you will be the first person I contact.

I have been in the professional sector for the past 24 years and have moved 12 times during that period. We have worked with many real estate agents but I can state without hesitation that Mike Gibson is at the top of the list. He is a man of great character and integrity who is committed to his clients. He is connected in the community and has tremendous resources that enable him to better support the people he serves. His negotiation skills are the best I have seen and he always took great pride in timely responses to all our inquiries. We consider him more than our real estate agent......he has become a friend for life. You won't be disappointed with Mike Gibson. He is the best in the business!
Colonel Alan Kellogg
We have experienced Mike Gibson's professionalism and his sincere desire that our new home selection was the best to be found. Mike guided us through all appropriate procedures to insure a timely and correct closing. After having dealt with a number of real estate agents whose sole motivation was to collect a commission irrespective of the client's real needs, it is refreshing to know that professionalism still does exist within the real estate industry. We appreciate your assistance "above and beyond". Thanks again. You are truly the top of the line in your profession....

I would need many more than 140 characters to explain how awesome Mike was throughout the entire home purchase process. From the work he did prior to the exploratory trip, great communication during the search, timely on-going communication, and then most importantly through the inspection and closing process. He's a true pro. If you are moving to the Louisville area--there is only one realtor to use--and that is like Mike Gibson. He pretty much became part of our extended family as a result of our purchase process. I'll never use another realtor and neither should you. His greatest attribute, "he listens" and then asks thought provoking questions which insures you get what you really want. Mike I have to say. You are by far the best partner I’ve ever had in this process. Not sure how we lucked out, but for once the sun shined on me. Thanks for being there.

My wife and I recently bought a house in east Louisville - This was our first house and as a newly married couple in our late twenties/early thirties we definitely needed guidance to make the right decision. Mike Gibson was outstanding and treated us like one of his own family members. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave us his honest opinion about houses that were not in the greatest condition or could present problems down the road. He didn't just want to sell us any house like other agents we have worked with. Mike cares about his clients and wants them to find the house that is right for them. We searched for about 9-10 months before we found the right house. Mike was extremely responsive and helped guide us through the entire process.

I’ve bought several homes previously, but in no case has anyone been more responsive, more professional or more courteous that Mike Gibson.  He was the ultimate professional; knowledgeable in the field of real estate, incredibly cognizant of the different neighborhoods in the Louisville area, readily adaptive to our changing parameters and expectations.  He was always available by telephone or email, always having data in-hand or getting it remarkably quickly, and he has become a most trusted advisor.  Professionals like him, in any field or occupation, are incredibly rare to come across.  Mike Gibson is, although perhaps not one-of-a-kind (I haven’t interviewed every realtor in the world), a truly unique individual.  He’s the type of professional that one can feel comfortable with, in that he’s representing your interests in the best possible way.  I’ve felt like family throughout the home-buying process, and there’s no better way to go about conducting business.

Personal Background- I am a proud 'Louisvillian' who attended St. Xavier, U of L, and am happily married with 5 adult children. I was the lead vocalist and co-founder of The Monarchs, Louisville's Musical Ambassadors as the city officially dubbed the nine member band. Because of timing and circumstances we were blessed with two national hit recordings that earned gold records and consequently provided the opportunity to see the world at an early age. ‘The Monarchs’ are still performing as a hobby in their second generation! I enjoy special occasion guest appearances often along with the other retired original members.

I love to fish and look forward to annual trips with our sons and daughter and their families at one of Kentucky's many grand lakes along with regular family outings with my lovely, tolerant and patient wife Carole and our 11 grandchildren.

Mike Gibson

Professional Background- I started my career path in finance as a Mortgage Banker and then became a Commercial Bank loan officer specializing in residential mortgage lending and commercial real estate development. I acquired my Real Estate license so that I could better understand the consumer side of the buying and selling process.

I am thankful that I had many valuable senior mentors that taught me that my chosen profession was one founded on providing exceptional customer service. I have now had years of experience and exposure to many different economic dynamics, and one thing that I have learned is that the buying and selling process will always turn out best if you keep the client's personal wants and needs and best interests top of mind.

In today's world the Internet has helped the consumer home search more sophisticated for the average client looking for their perfect home. With that being said, I believe that an experienced and knowledgeable real estate professional will always provide the home buyer value in the following:

Fiduciary responsibility- I am a Realtor® and am bound to uphold a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice in place for over 100 years. That ensures that you will be treated professionally and ethically in all transaction-related matters. My fiduciary responsibility is only to you. You will have someone who is only looking out for your best financial interests and who is contractually bound to do everything in their power to protect you.

Complex, ever-changing real estate regulations- Laws change every year. I am immersed in real estate law and regulations and must stay current with all the updates in contracts and practices.

Help finding the right home, beyond square footage and numbers of baths and bedrooms- After years of experience I have earned skills and abilities to evaluate condition and true market value of any property.

Pricing and selling a home- I know my home town well and I know the local market. As a Realtor® I have access to the freshest sales data, and will help you correctly price your house in line with the market to maximize your earnings.

Contracts and negotiations- Today’s contract offers can contain documents up to 25 pages long, not counting on going addendums, riders and Repair Request negotiations. I will help you navigate these complex documents and craft an attractive offer that makes financial sense for you. Plus, when it comes to negotiation, I am your advocate only and can bring an objective voice to a very subjective situation.

24/7 service- I am accessible. I am very fortunate that I enjoy what I do. I provide continuous client education. I love client teamwork and have a true passion for finding your dream home or selling your existing home. And most importantly I work hard to try and make the journey smooth and fun!

My personal business philosophy applies to a first time home buyer as well as the experienced homeowner.

I joined the Joe Hayden Real Estate Team because it truly is the best real estate team of professionals in town but also because it consists of a select group of real estate agents that operate with the same belief system. All of my teammates operate with honesty, integrity and support of our company commitment of "Promises Made, Promises Kept".

I respectfully ask for your business and as a Buyer and Selling Agent and I promise that I will earn it the old fashioned way. I will LISTEN FIRST and then work very hard to meet your needs. I ask you to please check out our testimonials and choose me to represent you in your home search. I would consider it a personal privilege and honor to be of service to you!
