Mike Hardesty

Hi, I'm Mike

I once owned a vintage shop in the Melrose district because I love everything about historic and mid century homes. So much so, that now I am a Realtor specifically helping others capture that same charm for their lives. Whether you are looking to buy or sell, I'm happy to partner with you in your journey.

Above and Beyond

We had an amazing experience working with Michael as our realtor. We did not live locally when we needed to sell our property, and he went above and beyond to help get the house ready for sale, including meeting companies for repairs, staging and follow-up. We then had multiple offers on our home within days of listing and were able to pick a wonderful family to sell it to. Would absolutely recommend Michael and use again if we ever move back to the area!

Always One Step Ahead

Can’t say enough about Michael and his skills as a sellers and buyers realtor. I’ve had the pleasure of working with him 3 times now and every time I’m completely comfortable and left with less worries than I had with previous realtors. He’s always on his game and always one step ahead. He’s both honest and realistic however, he always game to try to push the envelope. Although I don’t look forward to selling a house again, it’s an inevitable situation for us and I take comfort in knowing Michael will be there for us once again.

A Knowledgeable Professional With Your Interests in Mind

We would 100% suggest using Mike if you’re looking for a home, have already referred family members to him, and would absolutely do so again. It’s easy to get caught up in shiny social media real estate accounts run by people that don’t actually know what they’re doing, or “on-line house browsing”, underestimating the importance of an experienced realtor. Mike will put you at ease knowing that there’s a knowledgeable professional with your interests in mind, likely saving you time, money, and headaches, while helping you acquire your perfect home!

I often drive through this neighborhood on my way to and from my kids’ school, and I always enjoy taking in the variety of unique mailboxes. It’s not a requirement to have a creative mailbox in Paradise Gardens, but it definitely feels like a haven for mailbox eye candy.

It took almost 42 years to finally make it to Bost It took almost 42 years to finally make it to Boston — but damn, I’m glad I did. Five days wasn’t nearly enough, but we packed in everything we could with a 6-year-old and a 3-year-old in tow, and loved every second of it.

Comment “MCM” if you want me to DM you the link to the newest listing in the neighborhood of Crown Heights—right next to Granada Park.

This home is just one street north of mine, and I’ve always admired its exterior. With views of Piestewa Peak, Granada Park just down the road, and a neighborhood full of classic Hallcraft Homes, it’s easy to see why I love living here.

Comment “Phoenix” and I’ll send you the list Comment “Phoenix” and I’ll send you the listing to this home located at the base of Piestewa Peak. 

Fun Fact: The top five cities with the most buyers looking to relocate to Phoenix are Seattle, Los Angeles, Dallas, Chicago, and San Francisco.

If you couldn’t tell, I think the Biltmore Highlands are underrated, timeless, and this home would have to be in consideration if I was buying in Phoenix right now (with a $1 million budget)

Each time we return to Flagstaff, the conversation Each time we return to Flagstaff, the conversation bubbles back up—that familiar, almost ritualistic talk of buying a place here. It usually begins with a perfect day: some time spent wandering downtown, a great meal, a couple of drinks, and then the daydreaming kicks in. We scroll through MLS listings over another round, getting swept up in the romance of it all: the tall pines, the slower pace, the crisp mountain air, a friendly hello from a stranger. It starts to feel possible.

We talk ourselves into it. Make a list of reasons. Dive into logistics. For a moment, it all seems within reach. But then reality shows up—the voice of reason reminding us it’s a stretch, a risk, maybe even a little reckless.

And yet… we can’t quite let the idea go. Maybe one day. Maybe something like this gem in Elk Run, designed by architect Irving Palmquist. Yeah—something like that would be just fine.

Comment “Flagstaff” and I’ll DM you the listing link. Thanks!
