About Us:

After spending over 20 years skiing and hiking throughout the Tahoe area, I finally moved to South Lake Tahoe with my husband in 1996 .  I began my real estate career in 2003 and quickly distinguished myself as a Top Producing agent; Awarded Rookie of the year in 2004, Top Producer of the Year for Nevada Sales in 2005, Top Producer of the Year for Nevada and California Sales in 2006 and 2007.  During that time I closed the two highest dollar volume sales since the inception of Deb Howard and Company.  I pride myself on consistent follow up, integrity and professionalism, and strive to make the process of buying or selling a home a pleasant and stress free experience. My goal is to provide the highest level of service to each and every client that goes Above and Beyond their expectations.  Just ask any of my many repeat clients!  I was recently appointed as a Director to the South Tahoe Association of Realtors and recently received my CRS Designation.  In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my son, husband, friends and family, snowboarding, running, hiking, camping and traveling abroad.

Testimonials

 "Michelle was fantastic to work with.  She understands today's real estate market and has a wonderful marketing approach that finds buyer instead of waiting for a buyer to find her".  Sasha and Rebecca Mitic, May 2006

"I am writing to express my sincere thanks and gratitude for the exemplary service I recently received from your agent Michelle Keck.  When I first arrived in Reno, eager to start searching for a new home, I was shocked that the first real estate agency I contacted was unwilling to meet with me on short notice!  When I contacted your firm, Michelle enthusiastically threw herself into the daunting task of finding me the perfect Lake Tahoe home.  Michelle spent an entired day with me, scouting out potential homes online and developing a sophisticated game plan for finding the house of my dreams.  She must have worked several more hours after our meeting becuase remearkably, within 24 hours, she had already arranged appointments at the numerous homes I wished to see.  The following day, Michelle took me on a real estate tour, showing me each home on our list.  Michelle was great company during this tour; engaging, charming, and friendly.  At each house, she was attentive and patient, providing intelligent, detailed answers to all of my questions.  I never felt rushed; instead, I was encouraged to take my time.  Despite our relaxed pace, we visited many homes that day-including the home I decided to buy.  Michelle's hard work intensified once I decided on the house.  She coordinated with contractors, electricians, the gas company, and a railing company to correct some problems and ensure that the house was perfect.  Michelle worked even more long hours, meeting with the town and lawyers to resove some issues prior to closing.  When we completed the closing and it was finally time to celebrate, Michelle really went the extra mile- she arrived at the house before me, lit the firplaces, and laid out wonderful welcome gifts that immediately made me feel at home.  After this experience, I felt strongly compelled to let you know what an amazing real estate agent you have in Michelle.  The professionalism and care she showed is a fine reflection of your company and what you stand for.  Conversely, the first agent I encountered (the one that refused to see me) perfectly illustrates how an unprofessional agent can impact business-I will never do business with him or his company, ever again.  I will be happy to do business with your company in the future-as long as you can once again have Michelle take care of me.  The bottom line is this: real estate agents like Michelle are priceless.  Through her dedication, hard work, and integrity, Michelle has secured me as a client for life.  In business, having a quality person like Michelle directly translates to sales, positivie reputation, word-of-mouth networking, and success for your entire organization.  I hope that you are as grateful to have Michelle on your team, as I am to have met her.  Many thanks to you, your team, and especially Michelle for making the process of finding my dream Lake Tahoe home such a pleasure!"  Gerald Kessler, December 13, 2006

"What an easy transaction!  With being out of state, you kept me informed and updated!  What a nice experience!"  Pat Leach, November 2007 

"Michelle is in my opinion, the most professional realtor I have ever done business with.  I feel that I can make that statement since I have sold and/or purchased ten homes in my life time.  This was not an easy listing for numerous reasons including the fact that I am not close by to conduct business like signing papers...and the market is and continues to be unpredictable.  Regardless of all the negatives, Michelle never once told me we couldn't sell the cabin, rather she assured me we would find the right buyer.  With Michelle's help we did find the right buyer.  However, even that wasn't easy since the prospective buyer looked at the property nearly four months before buying the cabin.  Michelle never gave up hope, she contacted the buyers realtor and me to keep all the lines of communication open.  I sincerely feel that the reason my cabin sold was because Michelle never let go or gave up.  Would I recommend Michelle Keck and Deb Howard and Company to others...OF COURSE!  Kate Moldauer, April 2008
