Mike and Michele were superb throughout the entirety of the homebuying process. They were consistently able to help guide us down the right path and help us to avoid pitfalls. They gave excellent advice throughout, and their fastidious attention to detail helped ease our minds during the home inspection process. They are equal parts excellent at what they do and personable -- altogether a true pleasure to work with.

Mike and Michele were outstanding realtors throughout our home-buying journey. They were incredibly patient with us as we searched, helping us navigate three different offers before we finally found our dream home. The entire buying process was smooth from start to finish. Mike guided us through every step, explained everything clearly, and negotiated excellent seller concessions to help cover the cost of necessary repairs. Mike and Michele always had our best interests at heart, and that gave us a lot of confidence throughout the process. If you’re looking for knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely caring realtors, we highly recommend Mike and Michele!

I just closed on my 5th home, which was my third deal with Mike and the awesome people at Cana Realty. I keep coming back because they’re the best people, and the easiest to work with. My first deal was on the brink of disaster due to forces outside our control, so Mike sacrificed his whole day making calls until he solved it and saved the day. The second one, a sale, happened in a tough market, and Mike was kind and patient through a very difficult process. My new house that Mike helped me buy is just great. I love it, and I love working with him, and of course Michelle too! Of all the realtors I’ve worked with, Mike has consistently gone the extra mile. I didn’t realize it until recently, but maybe my favorite thing he does for his clients happens in showings. He focused on all the important details - do things work, is there damage, what’s the attic look like, what is structural vs cosmetic, etc. His attention to detail gave me the peace of mind to focus on the rest of the home, and he’s not afraid to be honest even if it’s not news I’ve wanted. I’ve always felt like he really does have my best interests at heart. I’ve heard the same from everyone else I know who’s worked with them, too - the best service from the kindest people.

Selling an inherited property in Raleigh, NC felt easy thanks to Cana Realty Advisors. Mike and Michele were honest, communicative, and kept everything moving smoothly. The home sold quickly, for cash, and for far more than we expected. Couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Mike’s team was focused from the start, they sold my parents house within 2 weeks. Everyone was professional and gave solid reasons for the steps that were taken. I love my father dearly, but he can be difficult to work with, but Mike dealt with every idiosyncrasy with grace. Eventually there were multiple offers, one of which was accepted, which brought such relief and peace to our family. We would use him again without a second thought.

We’re Here For You

SOLD EASILY & BOUGHT DREAM HOME 

“Working with Mike was a great experience! He and his team helped my husband,  son and I sell our home for maximum profit as well as move into our dream home! Mike is a great negotiator and was cool as a cucumber throughout the entire process. He and his team are very knowledgeable, and were very accessible and responsive, always keeping our needs paramount. We highly recommend Mike to  anyone seeking to sell their home for top dollar or buy their next home with no  drama or stress.” 

Luz Helena Kryn

CLOSED IN <3 WEEKS & SOLD YEAR LATER FOR PROFIT 

“When I was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes in August 2021, we needed to move quickly to get settled into a new home before the beginning of Training Camp.  Mike took good care of us, negotiating a great deal on a beautiful new home significantly below the list price, closing in under three weeks! The following year,  Mike sold our home quickly, significantly higher than what we paid for it despite the market shift caused by high interest rates. Mike was always responsive, did what he said he was going to do, and got the job done! Samantha and I highly  recommend Mike to anyone looking to move into or out of the Raleigh-Durham area.”

Brendan Smith

SOLD 2 HOUSES & BOUGHT 2 HOUSES! 

“Mike and Michele are great to work with! They were concerned about all our needs and did their best to get us what we wanted! We’ve sold two houses and  bought two houses with Mike and will definitely use them for future realty needs!”

Gigi Nugent

WOULD NOT HESITATE TO TELL THE WORLD 

“Mike came to see my home two days of me calling. He wrote a cash offer the same day. Mike operated with integrity and we felt like he put our family’s needs as top priority. Mike always worked with us to find a convenient time and place to meet. We needed to extend the closing date for 30 days later, and Mike & Michele 

did not hesitate. They really went above and beyond the call of duty, and their customer service was extraordinary. I highly recommend them. They were a  blessing to us, and if I could be their spokesperson, I would not hesitate to tell the  world about these two wonderful angels named Mike and Michele.” 

Mike and LaSaundra

EXPERTS AT SELLING HOMES, THE ONE YOU WANT! 

“We turned to Mike and his team to sell our Wake Forest home. He is very responsive and proactive with regular communication. But what stood out most with Mike is his knowledge of the market and his vast experience in real estate…  Simply put, it’s clear Mike is an expert at Selling Homes and Negotiating Great  Deals! If you’re looking for a straight shooter who has had many at-bats and can  hit it out of the park, Mike is the one you want!” 

Corey and Stephanie Spann

DELIVERS RESULTS WHILE MAKING IT STRESS-FREE 

When I decided to sell my home, I never expected such outstanding results. Mike with Cana Realty turned what could have been a stressful experience into a  remarkably successful one. Mike’s market knowledge was immediately apparent.  He provided clear, honest guidance about pricing strategy and improvements that would maximize my home’s appeal. His advice proved invaluable – my property sold significantly above the asking price! What truly impressed me was Mike’s communication throughout the process, explaining each offer clearly. Even more surprising was the speed – my home sold much faster than I anticipated. If you’re looking for a realtor who delivers results while making selling stress-free, I couldn’t recommend Mike with Cana Realty more highly. He truly exceeded all expectations. 

Will Gordon

SOLD MORE THAN WHAT WE THOUGHT POSSIBLE! 

“Selling our home with Mike was easy and straightforward! Mike’s honesty and vast experience provided key insights that helped us make timely, confident decisions. We appreciated his responsiveness as well as his understanding of how buyers think. He is a highly competent and ethical agent. Because of Mike’s knowledge and leadership, we kept our prep costs to a minimum while selling our home in 4 days and for $15,000 more than what we thought possible! We highly  recommend Mike to anyone thinking of Selling or Buying a home!”

Kierstan and Ryan Pentoney

TOP DOLLAR FOR THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME 

“Mike sold our home in ZERO DAYS* (the same day it hit the market) WELL ABOVE  Market Price. Mike is very knowledgeable, efficient, and detail-oriented when it comes to SELLING HOMES. He does what he says and has his finger on the pulse of the market. If you want TOP DOLLAR for your home in the shortest amount of  time, go with Mike!” 

Maria Waller, Robin and Ava Gordon

HANDLED CURVEBALLS AND GOT US MULTIPLE OFFERS 

“Working with Mike was great. He really went above and beyond for us. Despite  working with other realtors in the past, we learned things with Mike, and we found  ourselves thinking: “Why were we never told this before?” His knowledge and expertise helped us make good decisions throughout the process. He is a straight shooter, honest, and will fight for you during negotiation; he expertly handled the curveballs in our situation. We received multiple offers on the first weekend and sold well above the asking price!” 

Kurtis and Caroline Gallant

STRESS-FREE PURCHASE 

“Mike Chiarelli of CANA REALTY ADVISORS, was an amazing help when I purchased my home. It was a new build and Mike not only gave me great guidance in the purchase but also examined the work being done on the site many times. His experience in real estate and construction enabled him to assess the quality of the construction and explain to me how the build was coming along. He, as well as his staff, made this important purchase as stress-free as possible. I strongly recommend CANA REALTY ADVISORS to anyone looking to sell or buy a home!” 

Francine Snyder

DEFINITELY 5 STAR REALTORS 

“Mike and Michele are definitely 5-star realtors. When we sold our house, Mike got us top dollar, and he made purchasing our next house easy and painless. He was knowledgeable, thorough, fair, and of the highest integrity. I would recommend  Cana Realty to anyone and everyone. The next time I am in the market to buy or  sell, I will use Cana Realty.”

Tara Brelinsky

THERE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY FOR DREAM HOME 

“Mike and Michele are phenomenal. Patient and understanding answered all my questions (even the ones I asked over and over). Mike always kept it honest and was there every step of the way! I highly recommend Cana Realty to anyone looking for their dream home because that is exactly what Mike and Michele found us!” 

Maegan Dowsett

ADVISOR YOU WANT FOR ROI/CASH FLOW 

“Mike sold our rehab (house) for 18% more than a recently sold comparable on the same street! He is an experienced REALTOR® and Investor with a proven track record of marketing properties in a way that gets them into contract quickly and for a premium. Mike is the Advisor you want on your team to provide counsel on your rehab before, during, and after the sale. If you want to maximize your return  on investment and cash flow, go with Mike as your Agent!”

Drew Valery

ALWAYS ON POINT, SOLD AS IS FOR PROFIT IN ONE YEAR 

“It was a pleasure working with Mike! He was always on point, and the process of selling my investment property was flawless. Mike listed my (multifamily) property  “as-is” and sold it during the first weekend* of showings for 25% more than what I paid for it a year ago! Thanks to Mike, I was able to make a lot more cash flow than expected and free up more time to devote to my businesses and family. I  look forward to working with him again!”

Linda Jordon

SOLD CHILDHOOD HOME AS IS WITH MULTIPLE OFFERS 

“When Dad was moved into assisted living, my sister and I needed help selling our childhood home without making any repairs or updates. I reached out to Mike because I knew that he had a lot of experience buying and reselling “As Is” properties. Mike is a straight shooter, and he provided great counsel, which ultimately drove multiple  

offers that resulted in the highest contract price per square foot of any comparable home during the first weekend! If you’re looking to maximize profit on the sale of your home, Mike’s your man!”

Alan Watkins

GOT US FAR MORE THAN OPENDOOR! 

“We were considering selling our home to Opendoor but a friend suggested we talk to Mike before making a decision. We’re so glad we did! Mike got us far more than Opendoor! His pricing and marketing expertise resulted in a significantly higher sale in just a few days on the market. Anyone considering selling to an  iBuyer should talk to Mike first!” 

Will & Stephanie Gordon

WE WILL KEEP USING THEM! 

“I have used Mike for two houses now. He is very knowledgeable about the real estate field. My wife and I have been very happy with his work. His partner,  Michele’s also amazing at solving problems and finding information from the county and city. 

We will keep using them in the future, and we highly recommend their services.” 

 

Mike McCutcheon

NO STRESS CASH OFFER  

“Our sister became ill, and in our time of need and urgency, Mike and Michele were kind, warm, honest, and helpful. Without them, a time of already great stress would have seemed unsurmountable. The sale of her home was handled expeditiously with a little stress. Would we recommend them to others – Of  course!”
