TESTIMONIALS “Selling our home was a difficult decision for us. From the beginning Michelle understood that and did whatever she could to facilitate our transition. During the selling negotiations and once the house was sold, she continued to provide us with the highest professional service. We could not have been happier knowing that she was always in our corner. Michelle from day one showed us the true definition of a “Personal Real Estate Agent.” ~John & Lene Didone, Pebble Beach, CA~ “ We are delighted to recommend Michelle to anyone interested in buying a home. With her help, we bought a home we really love in Carmel. Her integrity, domain knowledge, professionalism, and extraordinary patience have made the otherwise stressful buying process a smooth one. She showed us many homes and analyzed them with us, never pushed us to make a decision until we were ready. She shepherded us through the process very well while we were travelling in Europe. We strongly recommend Michelle to anyone who wants to buy a home. She is the best agent you can expect to find!”. ~Steven & Ingrid Shen, Carmel, CA~ “We are so pleased that we selected Michelle Hammons when buying our home in Carmel. She was professional, informative and diligent. She guided us well and kept things moving. Michelle simply made things happen. Having worked with many realtors in our life, we found Michelle to be the best ever!” ~Ralph & Natalie Caputo, Carmel, CA~

MICHELLE’S MOTTO “
Love where you live!”
MEET MICHELLE It is my pleasure to represent home buyers and sellers of luxury properties in what I consider to be the most glorious part of the planet, the Monterey Peninsula. I moved here as a teenager—I attended Carmel High—and immediately fell in love with the natural beauty and charm of the Peninsula…and especially of the people who call it home. My early working life was spent in the arena of fine art. It was my great good fortune to represent the works of such iconic French Master painters as Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edouard Cortes and Camille Pissarro along with contemporary artists Marc Clauzade and Denis Lebecq. Eventually I worked with the Renoir Foundation and brought original Renoir paintings to the US for my clients. These works were valued in the million-dollar range and it was a rare and wonderful experience to merely be in their presence. Following my work with art I moved into the world of gemology, again representing exquisite pieces selling in the millions. As a result, I am more than comfortable moving in the realm of high-end consumer goods. That is why I believe that I am comfortable and competent when it comes to working with clients on the types of luxury Monterey Peninsula homes I am so passionate about. And make no mistake: I am passionate about them—and especially about the clients that I serve. My love of art and architecture is what drives me every day, but it is my love of working with people that truly excites me. Every day in the real estate business is challenging, fun and inspiring. I believe that the secret of success is to work hard…and work hard with integrity. I take a boutique attitude to real estate. There are a lot of big players in this business that represent many properties simultaneously, but I prefer a more intimate approach. To me, quality is much more important than quantity. That allows me to bring highly-focused, truly hands-on attention and energy to the homes and clients I represent.
If you’re looking for a dedicated, motivated and savvy real estate professional to facilitate your home purchase or sale, I believe that my unique set of skills combined with my deep knowledge of and love for this community put me in good stead to help you achieve your dreams of Monterey Peninsula home ownership.
