Michael is the best of the best! We met Michael in 2008 when we were looking for a home and he went above and beyond to show us so many houses. I must say we are very picky and hard to please but Michael took it in stride and helped us find what we thought would be our forever home. A few years later we thought we wanted more acreage and Michael showed us more homes and even though we did not end up purchasing remained in contact with us. In 2021 we decided to move to a warmer climate and of course we called Michael to sell our home because he is absolutely the best. Our home went under contract the 1st weekend for sale and Michael worked very hard to make it a smooth process even with a very demanding buyer. Thank goodness he is very easy going and worked extremely hard as the go between with us and the buyers. He is like family to us! In fact, our son also listed his home with Michael at the same time we did. He answers calls and emails very quickly regardless of the hour or day.

Michael is a superb real estate agent. He earns an A+ for his collaborative approach, maintaining constant communication, and his full engagement with his clients throughout the real estate process. I have worked with Michael as a seller and as a buyer on at least two real estate transactions. I have consulted him on real estate transactions, to which he was not a party and had nothing to gain financially, and he willingly and gladly gave me his honest, thoughtful, and helpful professional advice. He genuinely cares about the financial well-being and personal interests of his clients, and it shows. I would work with Michael on a buying or selling a property without hesitation. He is an exceptional real estate agent and consultant.

Michael Winslow was a family referral and I am very glad that we used his services!!! Michael took the time to understand the needs of our family and also cared about what we wanted out of the sale of our house. Within one day of contacting Michael he came to meet us and I knew he was our guy. We listened to the few recommendations that he put before us, took action on those recommendations, and within a week or two had our house listed in the time-frame that we wanted to sell.

Due to an extremely good market our house went into an option period almost immediately and from there Michael guided us the whole way. We talked nearly every day together and he taught my Wife and I many things as we had never been through the selling process before.

I have not one negative aspect during our time working together and I highly recommend Michael's services if you are looking to sell or buy in the Colorado Springs market!

Thank you Michael for being a champion for my family!

Without a doubt the best!!!!!! This is my third time working with Michael. He is an expert in his field, he is always thorough when answering questions, and makes the experience enjoyable. Whenever anyone mentions the need or thought of buying/selling a home Michael is the first and only recommendation. You won’t regret choosing Michael.

Michael Winslow of Blue Pickett Realty was simply amazing during our recent home purchase! The list of good he did for us is too long: he always responded promptly to communications (even at odd hours of the morning or night!), and followed up with all parties involved until even after the closing; he was patient…working hard through each discussion to understand our needs in a home; and he was always on time, patient and supportive. You cannot ask for a better realtor…this was our BEST house buying experience in 40 years! Thank you, Michael!

Michael was so great to work with! When we purchased our home in 2008, he helped us to find just the right place! When a military move happened, he helped us to find property managers to watch over the house. Eventually when we were able to sell our home in 2020, he went above and beyond to help us to sell our home for more than we asked. Michael was able to get an offer on our home within a couple of days, and was so helpful in the process. If you need an amazing realtor, you need to call Michael!!

This my was first experience selling a home and he guided me through the whole process and was always available to answer my questions. He was pleasant and really cared about helping me.

I highly recommend Michael. We had several issues arise during the inspection and VA loan process. However, Michael was knowledgeable, professional and resourceful in handling the problems including dealing directly with our difficult HOA management company and board. He was diligent, always available and provided excellent service throughout the entire process.

I did my research before choosing Michael Winslow as our realtor and that research definitely paid off! He was very professional, knowledgeable, and did a great job helping us get our home ready for sale. We were under contract for full asking price in only 4 days! You couldn’t ask for anything more! Thanks to Michael and the Blue Picket team.

Michael Winslow was the best real estate agent I have ever dealt with. He is very personable and responsive, and took us under his wing with a exceptional flow of communications, responding immediately to our needs and questions. He also has a helpful list of excellent resource worker bees who did house cleaning, handyman work and trash hauling when it was needed.
Michael was very knowledgeable about the current market, and surpassed expectations. We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great real estate agent!

We always wondered about the credibility of ratings and reviews available online when researching individuals at firms. The reason we chose Michael Winslow at Blue Picket Realty in Colorado Springs was because he had so many great reviews. We live out of state and thought reading reviews online was a good way to chose the right realtor for the condo we wanted to find. So, based on many outstanding reviews, we called him. Well, we can now confirm all those outstanding reviews were credible and honest. We would like to add an outstanding review of Michael to the long list of others. From the very first phone call, Michael was very personable as well as professional. We were looking to start our search immediately, and he made himself available to us later that afternoon. Every text or phone call made to him was responded to quickly. He was knowledgeable and offered his opinions as well. What really made this such an enjoyable experience in addition to his knowledge and availability was his very pleasant and friendly personality. Nothing seemed to stress him out; he was quite relaxed even when we had missed electronically signing several papers the day of closing! He assured us everything would work out, and it did! We are now happy owners of a condo that suits our family's needs perfectly! Our sincere thanks to Michael for making this experience a great one for our family! If we could give him 10 stars, we would!

I just wanted to take a moment to write this unsolicited letter of appreciation to my realtor Micheal Winslow. If you recognize my name it’s because I wrote a letter of appreciation to Micheal when my husband and I purchased our first home in Fountain, Colorado. Michael was the agent and he made a stressful process easier especially since my husband was deployed for the majority of the process. This meant more legal matters in addition to the regular administrative and financial issues one deals with when purchasing a home. Micheal was there for the entire process and gave his honest opinion on the homes we looked at, the repair cost if any, and educated us on what we really should focus on when purchasing a home. It was enlightening and educational even though we were seasoned home-buyers and educated on the process. To be honest, I fell in love with the home we just sold the moment I set eyes on it. However, at Micheal’s urging I looked at another builder as a comparison to ensure that I didn’t make a hasty decision in a moment of emotion, and because of that I was confident from the time we made an offer to the time we signed the paperwork.
Once my husband and I decided to re-locate, we called Michael to help us with the tasks of selling our home. Again, he discussed market prices, values, and timing, as one would expect with an agent; however, he went above and beyond when helping us negotiate the best price. He was meticulous and looked at the offers from all angles, offered advice, and then stepped back to let us make the decision. He is intimately familiar with the real estate market in Colorado Springs and a blessing if one is new to the area or trying to conduct business long-distance or remotely. Again, my husband and I couldn’t be happier. Michael’s professionalism is unquestionable, his integrity is evident, and I have and will continue to recommend him to my family and friends, and of course if I ever return to Colorado my family and I will use his services again.

Rena, thank you! What a very nice letter. It has truly been a joy to work with you and your family since you first came here. I'm sad that you are leaving the area, but I look forward to keeping in touch. Do let me know if you ever make it back to Colorado. Keep in touch!!

We were lucky enough to have Mike literally walk into our lives when he got hired to sell the home we were renting at the time. Instead of just selling the home and looking past us, he stopped to ask us what our plan was. We had been teetering back and forth between renting again or buying our first house and we needed help. He took my boyfriend and I under his wing and helped us way more than I had imagined he would. We were also super tight on time, we had 2 months to make this all happen, so his honesty, advice, and professionalism were all imperative to the process. He personally drove us to about 7 homes one weekday and that was when we found our perfect house. He takes his job very seriously, and without that we could have been left in a terrible situation where things didn't line up properly, and we would have been renting a storage pod and staying in a hotel. I am so grateful that we got connected with Mike and NONE of my worst nightmares even came close fruition. Mike also stays in contact with us even after we've made our purchase. We know we can reach out to him and ask any questions we have. If he doesn't have an answer, he connects us to someone who does. I really cannot say enough about our experience, only that I will always feel grateful that we met Mike instead of someone else. Timely, efficient, friendly, personable, professional, empathetic, open, and understanding are just a few words to describe this wonderful person. Don't worry about anything if Mike is your agent, you will be taken care of!

Michael knows what he is talking about. He knows the Colorado Springs market, he knows when to list and what a house needs to show well. We were out of town sellers, and he went above and beyond to take care of some of the details and get repair estimates, etc. when we needed someone local. Lastly, he is kind, genuine and thoughtful about what is best and fair for all involved in the transaction. A true professional and a pleasure to work with. Hire him.

Michael Winslow is a dynamic, caring, patient, positive, constructive, communicative, and knowledgeable real estate professional that is also flexible, leveraging phone, email, text message.

Ours was not your typical home sale experience. The night before closing a hail storm pummeled our home and delayed closing by a month. Throughout the process of dealing with submitting the insurance claim, claims adjuster, working with contractors, etc. Michael helped us respond in a timely manner to questions, requests, etc. from the buyer's agent, and title company.

Michael helped us maintain a positive outlook, seeing things from all party's perspectives, and encouraging us with his friendly demeanor, understanding disposition, and insight.

If you want to work with a true professional that authentically cares for you, your family, and your home ownership goals, then Michael Winslow is your go-to guy! Give him a call today and allow him to guide you along the path to your next home!

Michael is a blessing to the real estate industry. As a lender in Colorado Springs I have worked closely with Michael to put people into their dream homes and it's an absolute joy. Michael goes above and beyond for every client every time. He truly takes interest in his clients and ensures they have a smooth transaction. Michael continues to assist his buyers and sellers even after their sale is finalized which is unheard of, it shows his commitment and passion for his job.

I have known Michael for years and he has been helping me with various real estate interests for as long as I've worked with him. When it was time to sell my house it was a no-brainer that he would be my seller's agent. When we published the MLS listing I had two other identical townhouses in my neighborhood on the market to compete with. Michael went above and beyond in taking good pictures and producing a quality MLS that set itself apart from the other homes in my area. All three of the houses were listed at the same price and Michael managed to get mine under contract in 10 days at asking price before the other two even received offers. Michael even bent over backwards to work the closing around my crazy schedule that has me out of the country 3+ weeks a month. I'll definitely be working with him again.

Michael was a true blessing when it came to selling our home. We had a rental house in Colorado Springs but lived in Phoenix, Arizona. Michael bent over backwards to help us get our house ready to sell and he knew the correct people to call for whatever service our house needed (electricians, windows, roofers and painters). When it came time to put the house on the markets, Michael got our house sold in one weekend. There is no one I would recommend more than Michael when it comes to selling or buying a home in Colorado! He walks you through every step of the process. Michael is honest, has great communications and he really makes you feel as though you are his only client. Michael really saved us by helping us to sell our home. You would be crazy to use anyone else besides Michael Winslow at Blue Picket Realty!!!!
