What clients are saying...

Fantastic job from the entire Q&A Team! Much appreciated, Porters

Tory is the best - Always a pleasure to work with her

Keenan and Tory were very knowledgable, responsive, efficient and effective. They are an exceptional team to work with.

Great prep. Great pricing strategy. Great attention to detail and management of the closing process.

Keenan and Mike are easy to work with. They are very creative and helpful.

The Quinlevan team, their closing dep't and Heritage Title worked together ensuring a smooth transaction from start to finish. I felt fully informed and loved working with them. Highly recommend them!

We have worked with Mike and Keenan on several home sales/purchases. They are courteous, experienced and responsive. They are excellent negotiators with a thorough knowledge of the real estate market. We highly recommend them.

Mike and Keenan were fantastic to work with. They came up with a customized plan to sell my condo for top dollar. I handed them the keys and they handled everything from prep work, staging, photos and then met with me to present multiple offers in an easy & professional presentation. I ended up selling for the highest sale in my building. I highly recommend them!

You did a nice job. Very professional. I felt bad at times knowing Brian had to deal with 2 personalities that had all the makings of disaster. I'd use you/Brian again.

Our excellent experience started with Mike on 9/15/23 when he showed us a condo in Mequon that proved to be the one for us. From that point, It continued with every interaction we had with him; making an offer on the condo, listing our home for sale, working through the inspection report etc. Keenan was also very professional, efficient and attentive to all details so that the processes that were in place continued to move forward. All communications were handled quickly. Our closing on the condo was fast, easy and seamless! Our home sale happened in a timely fashion and an effective home sale closing was achieved. Everything was completed in a two month timeframe all because of Quinlevan & Armitage. We have known the Q family for a very long time. Our experiences dealing with them and Shorewest have allowed us to remain stress-free because we know we are always in good hands.

Great job by Mike and Keenan. Their homework on comparable, knowledge of the Pines subdivision, attention to detail and responsiveness were outstanding. Highly recommend them.

Elise was fantastic and everything I wanted or needed in a realtor. As a first-time home buyer in a crazy market, I was apprehensive on the process but Elise made me feel totally comfortable and confident in my decisions. I would highly recommend Elise and will definitely partner with her in the future. Thank you Elise!

Mike and Keenan provided excellent guidance and customer service during our search for and purchase of our new home. Even after the transaction had closed, they continue to be a great resource. We had the pleasure of working with Mike's Mother many years ago - the Quinlevan gene pool is savvy and strong. Very fun to see second and third generations of this family continue to share their real estate expertise , professionalism and work ethic with others. We highly recommend them! All Star - 5 Star rating!

We had several people recommend Elise to us, so our expectations were high, but we were truly blown away by how easy she made the whole process! She diligently listened to what my husband and I were looking for and proactively sourced a number of quality houses (both on and off the market). When we found our dream home, we were chosen as the winning bidder even though another buyer offered a higher price - All thanks to Elise's expertly written offer! She was a joy to work with, do not miss out on the opportunity to work with this amazing agent!

My first choice in choosing Elise Ferguson turned out to be the perfect one. Her knowledge of the current market was spot on and her professionalism was fantastic. Everything seemed to flow flawlessly from start to end. Great Job Elise!!!

We recently sold our home in Mequon, WI and had the absolute pleasure to work with Tory. We were already living out of state during the sale process. Therefore, it was of real importance to us to find a real estate agent who we could fully trust and count on to carry the additional workload given our absence. Our realtor diligence led us to Tory as the #1 recommendation and we were not disappointed. Tory grew up in the area, brought a long track record, and had successfully handled similar transactions for people we knew. During the sale process she stayed on top of things, took great care of our unattended home, and kept us well informed. She took care of whatever needed to be done to make the process go well and to close the transaction. Tory is also a great person, who is we very much enjoyed interacting with. Thank you again, Tory!

Mike and Keenan were exceptional in helping us find the right home to purchase as well as quickly selling our current home. Their expert guidance through this current real estate market was invaluable. They were always immediately responsive to our questions and requests. Superb service all around.

We were extremely pleased with the whole process. They helped us get ready, staged and sold in just a few days. We would highly recommend them.

They did an excellent job Bob

We had a great experience. the team was thorough and professional.

Great working with Keenan. He kept us aware of new listings and advised us on the local market. He was always available to answer questions.

Mike and Keenan are consummate professionals in the real estate field. They were successful in finding me a property in a challenging market, and their guidance and expertise were very valuable in helping me make a winning bid. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a property!

Experience was outstanding. As a buyer, there was very little paperwork for me to sign. Everything was explained well. Elise Ferguson was fantastic. Could not ask for better service!

I couldn't be more pleased with the service. Working with Mike and Keenan Quinleven made the process easier. There was a lot of hand holding on their part. I would recommend their services to anyone thinking of selling their home. Nice job, Guys!

We knew downsizing our home of 19 years was going to be an extremely emotional and stressful process to go through. Finding a realtor who was knowledgeable with the market dynamics of our area, resourceful, and compassionate at understanding the impact this decision would have on our lives, was everything to us! We choose Mike and Keenan Quinlevan, from Shorewest, because of their reputation of excellence and willingness to help with anything we needed. Whether it was answering our many email and phone calls responsively to helping with resources like inspectors, movers, and contractors, Mike and Keenan were always there for us! They took the time to understand our needs and concerns... so much so, they also found the perfect property for the next phase of our lives! We just can't thank Mike and Keenan enough!

Mike and his team did an outstanding job! No details left unturned. Thanks so much

Keenan and his team were top notch. They were there every step of the way making things incredibly easy on us. Any questions or concerns we had were immediately addressed at an incredibly high level. My family has no intention of moving anytime soon but I would not hesitate to use Quinlevan and Armitage again, and I will certainly recommend them to anyone looking to relocate in the area. They helped my family find our forever home and we can't be more grateful.

Mike and Keenan were excellent from start to finish helping us purchase our new home while selling our present one.

Great experience!

Mike truly listened to my wife's list of preferred house features and found a terrific match in a low inventory environment.

Tory was the absolute best! We were moving to a new city with a toddler and her extensive knowledge of all the North Shore neighborhoods was invaluable. She answered our many calls, texts and e-mails day and night within seconds and helped guide us through a very tough market. She was open and honest about location, structure and surroundings of potential homes. She went above and beyond networking with colleagues when we couldn't quite find the right fit. We wouldn't be as happy, comfortable and confident in our current home if it wasn't for her! Would not hesitate to work with her again if the time ever comes.

Q & A, as we like to call them, are truly amazing realtors. Tory and Keenan answered our endless questions about selling our house and provided us with wonderful advice on what to do as well as what not to do. While keeping us informed and updated, both were always available. Their experience and expertise in real estate helped us so much while they both maintained a good sense of humor. With a selling price that was well over asking, we are so thankful to the Q & A team - thanks for everything!

Mike and his team are professional, thorough and live up to all of their promises. They articulated a well thought out marketing plan during our interview and executed on the plan. As an out of town seller, Mike and his team made outstanding recommendations on who to call to prepare the property. As the lead, Mike was always available when we needed him. We had multiple offers three days after the property listed. Once again, Mike and his team proved that a good team will always produce better results than even the smartest individual.

Elise made our home selling process easy and smooth! Her guidance and help was very much appreciated. We will definitely refer family and friends to Elise in the future. She was knowledgeable, helpful and made this process incredibly easy. We can not say enough great things about her!

Elise was truly wonderful to work with in finding us our perfect home! Especially in today's crazy housing market, Elise was reassuring and positive while remaining realistic and honest. She completely understood our must-haves, and wish list home qualities, and offered so many insightful considerations in our house hunt. With our tight timeframe to buy a house Elise was able to offer so many newly listed and upcoming options, and conveniently coordinate showings. Home buying can be such a stressful and overwhelming process, but our experience with Elise was low pressure, maximally supportive, and incredibly rewarding. I am so thankful for her sweet support throughout the entire process, while also going up to bat to ensure we got everything we wanted from showings, putting in offers, inspection, closing, and beyond. I would 100% trust and recommend Elise for any realtor needs!

Mike and his team were a highly valued in our process of selling our home. The team made the process easy for us.

I worked with Keenan Quinlevan to purchase my very first condo. He made the process as easy as possible for me and explained everything in great detail. The buying process for your first home can be a little nerve wrecking, but I felt comfortable that this home was the best fit for me with Keenan's help! He answered every question and was available before and after hours to ensure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend working with this team, especially Keenan!

Bought and sold two houses with Tory Armitage. Always a great experience. Thanks Tory!

We worked with Keenan and he was absolutely fantastic! He was able to answer any and all questions that we had and made the searching and buying process stress free. I would highly recommend working Keenan, whether you are a first time home seller/buyer or an experienced seller/buyer.

Our first experience with Keenan was back in 2019, when he helped us get to know the Milwaukee area before we had to make a cross-country move from Boston. He spent a lot of time listening to our wishes and helping us explore endless possibilities until we found the right fit for our family. He genuinely cared that we not only found a house, but that we found exactly what we wanted. His sincerity and hard work is why we came back to him when it was time to sell our beloved home. Keenan walked through our home and had a very helpful discussion about what buyers are looking for and how we could get a solid offer. He made sure that we were comfortable with our listing before it went on the market, and that it was well promoted to receive the widest audience possible. We had an overwhelming turnout and accepted an offer well over asking, thanks to his guidance. Buying and selling can be an extremely personal and emotional experience. The entire Quinlevan and Armitage team worked to make our home buying and selling experiences as stress free as possible. We would highly recommending this team to anyone looking for a knowledgeable team willing to go the extra mile to represent you on your real estate journey.

My experience was absolutely phenomenal. There was nothing that could have gone better.

Absolutely outstanding.

A true professional.

The Quinlevan & Armitage team is exceptional! This is the second time our family has used them to help us with our real estate needs and both time they went above and beyond to make sure the process went smoothly. We definitely know we will be working with them again in the future.

We have worked with Tory on every house we have bought and sold and would never change.

Our sale was quick and effortless. We would recommend the Quinlevan team to our friends and family without question.

From the very beginning of our search for a new home, we knew that Tory Armitage was a top notch realtor and person. She listened to what we envisioned our new home to be and diligently sought to match our wishes in the present real estate market.She carefully and completely explained to us the intricacies and details in purchasing a new home and did so in a clear way that allowed us to understand the process.Through her many contacts in the real estate field she found us a home matching our wishes that had not yet reached the MLS stage of sale. Her experience and knowledge in the real estate market insured we covered all the steps necessary to purchase the home.We were very pleased with Tory's knowledge of our purchase and would not hesitate to recommend anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring realtor to handle their real estate transaction.

Mike, Keenan and Mandy are a great team and true professionals! Mike's knowledge of Southeast Mequon is invaluable. Buying and selling a home is a stressful experience. The experience and demeanor of this team delivers a level headed fact based approach that helps to minimize emotional distractions. And, they are simply nice people to work with! We highly recommend.

Mike & Keenan were always available to answer my questions when I called. Very pleased with the experience.

Excellent service.

My husband and I had Tory as our agent 30 years ago when she helped sell our family home for us. She was wonderful to work with back then and is just as wonderful now as she recently sold our home in Cedarburg as we downsized to a condo. It was a pleasure to work with her, she was so helpful and always available to answer all of our questions. She made us feel that we were her only clients as she always had time for us and went above and beyond at every step of the home selling process. We would highly recommend her and would certainly call on her if we were to ever sell again. She is a very sweet young lady.Frank and Marie Schilter

Tory was extremely helpful with us throughout the entire process of buying a lot to build our dream home. This was our fourth real estate transaction where Tory represented us. We have counted on her for years and have referred her to numerous family members, friends, and colleagues. From the first time we entered a home showing, a home significantly higher than our price point, and met Tory, to this transaction now, she has treated us with respect, with the same level of interest, and with outstanding professionalism and urgency. It was that first interaction that we knew we found the perfect realtor. Thank you for all you have done and the future opportunities still yet to come!

Where do I begin to explain the ease and simplicity of working with Tory? We started by looking at several houses and because of Tory's patience and good working relationships with other realtors, I was able to find the house of my dreams. I know I would not have been able to get this house if I had worked with another agent. Tory explained every step along the way and truly made this a learning experience for me as I was a first time home buyer. Her guidance and wisdom kept me on the right path and I knew that Tory would have my best interest at hand with every turn of the transaction. As if I wasn't blessed enough to have Tory as my real estate agent, I have the honor of calling this respectable businesswoman my mother. I cannot begin to to describe how appreciate I am for Tory Bruce Armitage.

Recently went through two transactions with Mike, and one with Keenan. Both processes were seamless, start to finish. No hassle. No surprises. Stayed on schedule. I felt like we were in excellent hands and I highly recommend Quinlevan-Armitage.

Tory's the best!! We were in good hands! Bob & Jan

After working with Tory for many years and knowing what a hard working true professional she is, it was no surprise that she would handle our home sale and home purchase with the utmost expertise! Both of these transactions had a few glitches, but Tory kept us on track, in focus and guided us through to closing perfectly! She truly is the realtor you want with her years of experience, current market knowledge and hardworking ethic. YOU CAN'T ASK FOR A BETTER AGENT! Kris and Robert Rick

Over the years, Tory has guided us through the purchase of two homes and a condominium. What stands out for me more than anything else is Tory's incredible patience. In each case, we must have asked Tory to show us at least a dozen - possibly two dozen - properties, and not once did she show the slightest degree of impatience when we decided that a property was not exactly what we were looking for. She was always supportive of whatever we decided. I was also impressed by Tory's knowledge and professionalism but even more impressed by her honesty and her integrity. If we asked Tory a question, we got a straightforward answer. The bottom line is that Tory always related to us as people, not as clients or customers. I know it's a cliche, but Tory was always willing to go the extra step regardless of the situation. I find that quality rare in today's world and appreciate it when I see it.

Tory--IS THE BEST!!! We've moved 14 times in our lives, and she is by far the most knowledgeable, professional and attentive real estate agent we've ever seen. We've done 4 transactions with Tory, and we can positively say that Tory is a joy to work with!! Bob & Jan Seidell.

5 stars (excellent) for Mike. Third time we have used him and he always exceeds our expectations. This time we bought land. He helped us buy the land but then helped us select a builder. Greatly appreciated.

Helpful! Knowledgeable! And Kind!

Tory Armitage was amazing from the moment we reached out to her regarding the sale of our home. She immediately met with us to share how the process would look. She was organized, positive, professional and communicated next steps from the start of the process all the way through the end. Tory's expertise was priceless.

Tory was a pleasure to work with. We loved her low key, calm demeanor. Of all those who assisted us with our home purchase Tory was always the most responsive in addressing our questions, concerns and requests. We also really appreciated her guidance and suggestions throughout the search and the purchase process.

I'm having a hard time writing this testimonial because, quite frankly, it's impossible to describe all that Tory did for our family during this home buying experience. Long story short(er), we made an offer on our dream home in Cedarburg with the contingency of closing on our condo in Chicago. The offer was accepted and we lined up our closing dates. Two days before our scheduled closing in Chicago the wheels fell off - our buyer never secured his financing and somehow it fell through the cracks (1st time home buyer, self-employed, overwhelmed national lender, pro-bono attorney...the perfect storm). Thankfully we had Tory on our side. First, she had prior experience with our seller & the listing agent and the rapport & trust was already in place. Second, she was able to effectively communicate our situation with our seller and earn us some additional time. From that point forward is where Tory really went beyond the job description . Due to the complex situation in Chicago, we had to get actively involved. Tory was able to provide me very specific advice and direction to help get our condo closed. It was a full-week's work of calls & emails and Tory was available each & every time we needed her. I am 100% certain that we wouldn't have closed in Chicago had it not been for her. As for our purchase...it was smooth sailing. Tory had referred our lender, who was just as incredible to work with, and the experience was top notch across the board. We couldn't be more grateful to have such a trustworthy, hard-working and caring realtor to guide us through this crazy journey. We're now living comfortably in our new home and can't wait to have Tory over for a drink (or two).

Absolutely flawless and effortless on our part, Couldn't be more satisfied. I'd recommend him to anyone selling a house.

We recently closed on our Condo through Mike Quinlevan. My wife and I chose Mike because of his deep experience of the real estate market in the area. Mike communicated with us regularly and set realistic expectations from the outset (even pre-COVID) about listing price, sale price, timing, etc. We would definitely choose the Quinlevan team should the opportunity arise in the future!

Experienced, Courteous, and efficient; that's Mike!

Mike did an excellent job which was really important considering I am out of state . He took care of everything submitted electronic docs to make this an easy transaction .I look forward to working with him on other real estate transactions .

Throughout this difficult process because of Covid Virus, Tory Armitage, my agent, had been very supportive and helpful to me. I have only praise for her attention and encouragement during the whole process. I would certainly recommend her to others I know who are in need of an agent.

Mike and Keenan were an absolute pleasure to work with. We took quite a while to decide on what really suited us for our first house and they gave us much needed guidance the whole way. They had great insight to the housing market right as the pandemic came through and altered the whole world. They made us feel comfortable with such a big decision.

Mike and Keenan came highly recommended to us. They both had excellent communication and patience in our search for a home. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you Mike and Keenan!

Mike & Keenan did a great job advising me on how to position my property to be most attractive to buyers, which resulted in a full-price offer on the first day of showings.

Tory Armitage is an excellent real estate agent. We worked with her on the sale of a home in Mequon that was a rental property. We found Tory to be highly responsive, professional, and knowledgeable of the market. Last fall I contacted Tory asking her to complete a walk through of our home informing her we would not list it until spring/summer of 2020. I also told her I was going to solicit the opinion of multiple real estate agents. Tory completed the walk through and provided us with recommendations concerning any necessary work that could be completed before listing the house. This process was being done from a distance because we live in Dallas. I found that we quickly trusted her opinions and recommendations and it was clear she was the person we wanted to work with to sell this property. We were fortunate that we sold the home under a one party listing agreement with Tory. During the process of receiving an offer Tory's communication with us was excellent. She is the ultimate professional plus she has a great sense of humor. Without reservation, we would recommend, Tory Armitage for the sale of your home or if you are looking to purchase a new home.

Tory and her team were so great to work with! They helped us identify which area would be the best fit for our family, and worked diligently to find the right home for us. We lived out to state, so our house-hunting time was limited. Tory helped set up showings that were well-timed and made the most geographical sense to keep our days efficient and effective. We are so grateful for Tory & the Shorewest team for helping us find our dream home!

We were extremely pleased with the work Tory Armitage did on our behalf. Tory was consistently responsive, always professional, and very knowledge of the market. We contacted Tory last fall to walk through our home informing her we would not put the house on the market until Spring of 2020. Following Tory's walk through she provided a list of recommendations for improvements that could be done prior to listing our home. We we fortunate as the home sold under a one party listing. From the very first contact until the closing she was the ultimate professional. Without reservation, we would recommend ,Tory if you want to sell your home or are searching for a new home. Tony and Pat Karabon

I wouldn't work with anyone else

Mike and his team did an excellent job on selling my house. They were great to work with.

Mike and his team provided exactly what I was looking for. Sold my house in 4 days, and Mike was always available for calls and questions, and did a great job of guiding me through the process. Definitely 5 Stars!!

Tory was a pleasure to work with through our home buying process. We moved to the area from Boston and she did an exceptional job learning our needs and wants very quickly. She found us the perfect house for our family and was able to get us in before anyone else which is the reason we can now call it our home. Working with Tory was painless and enjoyable! We had not had a good experience with a realtor until we met her. She is talented, on the ball and dedicated to you through the whole process. You will not regret hiring her!

Sarah was a huge help helping us find our new home and she guided us throughout the whole process. She also recommended a great mortgage person who made the process very easy.

Rachel did a FANTASTIC job selling our old house and helping us with the purchase of our new home. We would recommend her without hesitation!

We recently purchased our first home with the help and expertise of Mike and Keenan Quinlevan and we could not be happier with our experience! Buying your first home is a scary prospect made even more so in our case because we were completing the entire purchase from another state. Keenan went above and beyond to make sure we not only found the perfect house but that we felt comfortable with the process. From the initial offer to closing, Keenan was there answering all of our questions and reassuring us along the way. Mike and Keenan Quinlevan made buying our first home a seamless and enjoyable milestone! I would without reservation recommend them to anyone in need of a great realtor! Geoff and Meagan Early

Tory made the purchase of my first home (condo) buying experience seamless from start to finish. It was an experience I will never forget. Her and her team/staff were proactive and one step ahead throughout the whole process. If it wasn't for Tory and her talent and years of experience, I would never have gotten the accepted offer on my condo. If you are looking for the best in the industry, you found her.

Excellent Job. Would use again

Rachel helped with some staging and I feel like I got a great price and smooth transaction.

Excellent, Tory (and Judy Remington) were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. They were professional and very personable. They were also very responsive when issues arose. Tory has been our agent for many years and has always been the consummate professional. I would recommend (and have recommended) her to others over the past several years.

Mike exceeds our expectations every time we interact with him or have a need regarding our home sale and purchase.

Excellent in every way. I appreciate tory's Kind expertise. Excellent is my rating of Tory. Now I have to figure out how to send this thing to you. Kathy wigdale This is my 3rd try.

Tory was excellent and I appreciate her service. Excellent is my opinion. Thank you Tory Kathy wigdale

Five stars for certain!

you were strongly recommended by Charley and Jean and it did not take long to find out why. Selling ones home is a very emotional thing and you made it much easier for us to do it with your early preps and very consistent follow-up on every detail that we could have been concerned about.You showed us an excellent meld of professionalism mixed with personal attention to the ups and downs of weather and other things seemingly getting in the way. It was a pleasure working with you and feeling confident that we were on the right track. We are settling in to our chosen new life and thank you for helping make it possible. We would not hesitate to recommend you to any who might need your services.Thanks again.

Kris and I would like to thank you for finding our forever home. You made everything effortless during this very stressful time. You continue to make dreams come true. Thank you again and continued success!

We were very happy to have recently worked with Tory for our Mequon condominium sale. There are a lot of details involved in preparing your home for the sale, and the subsequent listing and actual selling of your home. Tory really helped to make the entire process seamless. She was always available to answer any questions we had along the way. She has a high level of professional knowledge and knows our Mequon area very well. We were grateful to have picked the best realtor around!

Rachel was great and made the process of finding our condo very pleasant. We will never hesitate referring her to any of our friends.

Over the past twenty years, We have bought and sold several properties with Mike, his family and associates, and we sought him out for this sale. In this last case of findng a downsize condominium he was patient, persistent and knowledgeable in helping us to get the best possible place to move to after finding a buyer for our home of 16 years

Tory is the true definition of a professional. She talked us through the steps of selling my mom's house, and laid out options for decisions that would need to be made. It was a difficult situation to sell my mom's house after her passing. Tory made it easy. She always met us at the pace we needed to go. When we needed help getting the house ready to sell, Tory had referrals. Selling a house can be a daunting process, even when there is a bright shining light at the end of the tunnel, so it was important to work with someone we trust. This is the second house Tory has sold for us. If we have to sell again, she will definitely get the job.

Tory was not just a professional realtor, but a friend to us during a stressful time. She provided timely and valuable information with honest opinions while guiding us smoothly through the process. Tory is a very personable and upbeat individual and always has a kind word to say. She is a joy to work with and we would highly recommend her to those considering purchasing or selling a home.

Our experience with Tory Armitage was outstanding!! She explained about the timing of putting our home on the market.She suggested staging our home to provide better access to and views from our rooms. Tory was sensible about pricing our home. She made herself available to answer our questions and deal with any concerns day and night. Her suggestions showed her experience in real estate and her manner is always very professional. All the staff we crossed paths with at Shorewest were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.

No one can believe that you had an accepted offer on our condo within twenty-four hours of listing it. You are so knowledgable, so organized, so personable and dependable that we can easily understand why you are so successful.You never leave questions unanswered and always respond promptly---even on weekends and evenings, which shows your dedication. Your availability to assist us, no matter when or where was very much appreciated.We have recommended you to all who ask who are realtor was and will continue to do so.You are the best Tory.

We love our new house! Tory, you were a dependable, trustworthy partner in the often frustrating, anxiety producing search for a new home. You remained confident we would find the right house even when we felt discouraged and disappointed with the process. We never felt rushed or pressured by you to buy something that wasn't the perfect match for us. You were right. We didn't settle and we eventually found the best home. We couldn't be happier. This has been by far the easiest home purchase we have ever had because of your warm, understanding and honest approach. Thank you so much!

Brian was positive and helpful throughout the search and buying process.

Mike is amazing!

Tory did an amazing job helping my wife and I find our first home. Being new to the process she walked us through things every step of the way. We met in the Shorewest office to start our journey off and from there had a steady stream of houses sent to us via email. Each time we found a house we liked our realtor would set up all the showings for us. There were even several times when our primary realtor was unavailable but she went above and beyond to get us a backup realtor so we could see houses asap. Would recommend!

Tory is THE BEST!

Tory did a great job. She was always available to help and always very professional. She kept the process moving and on time and always kept track of the issues that needed completing. She made sure we did things right but also helped us do what we felt was best. 5 stars for sure.

Excellent to work with! Professional, efficient and personable! Will be recommending to family and friends. Thank you!

He was able to help us find a perfect home for our family within a few days and lock it in the same day it came on the market. Mike has an extensive knowledge of the area and is very well established and connected. He was a great mentor and counsel during our search and home buying process and always quickly answered our questions about everything from mortgages, to finding help with local services, etc. If you need a realtor in Ozaukee County or the surrounding area - call Mike! You will be glad you did!

Tory provided us with professional advice that helped us make decisions that directly impacted a successful sale of our house and the purchase of our new house. We felt that we could contact her at any time, and, unfortunately for Tory, we did often! She helped us navigate the process and the anxiety that went with it. We would definitely recommend Tory to someone who is looking for a competent, compassionate agent.

Tory is a true pro. She quickly figured out what we were looking for and zeroed in on the properties that fit our needs. She was always available and willing to help with big, stressful decisions as well as the little details that make a new house feel like a home. It was very comforting to know Tory was on our side through this whole process.

Tory was absolutely wonderful to work with when we sold our home. She was always available to answer our questions and concerns. Tory was courteous, professional, extremely knowledgable of the current housing market, detail orientated, and offered suggestions which helped our home sell quickly. We will always be appreciative for the help she provided and we strongly recommend Tory to anyone looking to sell their home.

Rachel was outstanding and we give her our highest recommendation. Her experience and approach delivered great results on both our sale and purchase. Her opinions helped us navigate a couple of challenging situations and decisions. We enjoyed working with her.

My experience with the entire Quinlevan family has been phenomenal through the +/- 40 years that I have been working with them. I have recommended them and your firm to many possible clients. I am very pleased that they are on your team. Thank you for this opportunity. Wally Lange

Mike is wonderful to work with. Highly recommended!! Eveything was timely and service could not have been better. Superb Job.

We have utilized Tory's services as a real estate agent twice in the last 2.5 years. On both occasions she was extremely knowledgeable about the local market and instrumental in helping us build our home and then in turn selling it when we needed to relocated to a different state. I would strongly recommend her services and will use her again if we return to the Milwaukee area.

It is our pleasure to recommend Tory Armitage as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home for their unique situation.

She is hands down the best in the business in our opinion and if we ever need to move again she will be our first choice in real estate agents.

Rachel was an excellent agent as we went through the process of purchasing our first home. She pointed out details in the houses we viewed that we would not have seen ourselves. She truly looked out for our best interest. She was great to work with even when the purchasing process became difficult due to the sellers. She helped us get set up with Wisconsin Mortgage and made sure the information sharing between the two was seamless, making it easier for us. We will definitely being using Rachel in the future when we look to purchase a new home down the road.

Every time I think about buying or selling a property, the first thing I do is call Mike Quinlevan. His knowledge of the market is always spot on and his vast experience is apparent. He is professional and personable, he surrounds himself with excellent support staff and he is just fun to work with.

Great to work with. Mike has a calming (but competent) effect on people going through a stressful time. He made the process very easy and seamless.

Great job by the Mike and Brian team. Thanks

Tory Armitage recently worked with us on the sale of our home in Mequon (March 2018). Right from the start, we really appreciated her personable and professional approach to the sale. What stood out the most from our interactions with Tory were the genuine customer service and her prompt attention to detail every step of the way. Tory helped us navigate the process with the peace of mind that she was there for us to ensure a successful outcome regardless of the challenge that might come up. Tory's experience and understanding of the current market conditions were ever apparent. She is a true professional and a pleasure to work with!

Thorough, responsive and competent- very enjoyable to work with. Really appreciated the help with the cost of Radon remediation. Overall made the process easy.

We had the pleasure of working with Tory on the sale of our home in Grafton this past fall. Her insight and knowledge of the local market helped insure a quick sale. She stayed on top of all the details and kept us informed along the way. It could not have been any easier or better. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell in the Mequon/Cedarburg/Grafton area.

We contacted Tory and Shorewest shortly after learning that we would be relocating out of state. Tory helped us market our home so that we highlighted the aspects that would appeal to potential buyers in our price range. This clearly worked as we were under contract three days after listing! Tory provided excellent advice at each stage of the process; her knowledge of the market is excellent, which helped us immensely. We cannot recommend Tory highly enough!

My wife and I worked closely with Tory Armitage this past Spring. Her commitment to sell our home was exceptional. She possessed a keen sense of the market and instilled great confidence by virtue of maintaining close contact and responding promptly to all the usual calls of an anxious seller. With her suggestion, Tory found us a wonderful home staging team with whom she worked seamlessly. Tory set realistic goals from outset and added warmth to outstanding professionalism. From the inspection process to dealing with insurers, bankers and other brokers, Tory drew respect. In a word, Tory not only made a complicated process of house sale educational but entirely pleasurable.

My husband and I were not looking to move, until we stumbled on our dream house out of the blue. Rachel was the realtor selling the house which is how we met. She was beyond knowledgeable about the home and the neighborhood and did a wonderful job assisting us through the process. With a new home purchased, we had to sell our current home and didn't think twice about asking Rachel to be our realtor. She was amazing throughout the whole process from listing to staging to final sale! We couldn't have been happier to have her on our team! I have a feeling we will be in our new home for many, many years, but if that should change Rachel would be our only choice!

Amazing & hardworking is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Tory Armitage. As a 20 year resident of Mequon-thiensville, we've had the pleasure of working with Tory 3 times! When we relocated to Wisconsin in 1998, Tory was the listing agent of the home we purchased. She was personable and professional and we were wowed. We knew she would be our agent if we decided to sell. Ten years later, we listed with Tory and we were thrilled with the results. Our home sold quickly and we were very impressed by Tory's expertise and marketing skills. In 2017, a job relocation meant selling our dream home in Mequon, the one we thought we'd live in forever. Tory was the only agent we even considered. We listed at a slow time of year and she gave us thoughtful and knowledgeable recommendations to market and stage our home. We are so glad we hired her as our agent and took her advice! Once again, our home sold quickly thanks to Tory's expertise. Tory Bruce Armitage is a positive and talented professional. She makes herself available to her clients and stays in touch. Buying & selling is always emotional and never easy, but Tory is a pro and makes it as pleasant as possible. She is a true asset to every client - buyer or seller- and we recommend her highly and without reservation. Ann-Marie & Jim Hanson, Mequon

Tory Bruce Armitage is the best! We have no doubt that her on the spot pricing for our home and the timing of the sale is what sold it within 36 hours of posting. Her calm demeanor and professionalism made the process so smooth for us that we would most definitely use her again and recommend her to family and friends to buy or sell a home. WOW - if we knew it was this easy, we would have called her sooner! Gene & Joyce, Mequon

Rachel is knowledgeable, professional, thorough and understands the needs/desires of her clients. I appreciated all her efforts and her willingness to offer candid advice when requested. I would recommend her to others in a heartbeat.

As a first-time home buyer, Tory proved to be an invaluable resource for me. She took the time to really understand both my essential needs and my 'nice to haves', then crafted a search that met both of those criteria. Additionally, she helped me understand the complexities of home-buying in a manner that made me comfortable throughout the entire process, an especially critical skill for a first-timer like myself. In short, I would recommend Tory to anyone seeking a truly personalized, considerate home-buying experience.Isaac E., Thiensville

We enjoyed our experience selling our house with Tory Bruce Armitage. She is a veteran of the realty market and made our listing, showings, and sale of our home worry-free. It gave us confidence to have a seasoned professional on our side as we went through the home selling process.Vince & Janet Condella, Mequon

Sometimes the most appropriate response is 'WOW!' And, 'WOW!' is how we feel about our experience with Tory! In a market with few options for one of our very specific requirements, Tory was able to identify and show us properties to meet the needs for our family, both here today and for those that will come to visit.The thing that I like best about our interaction with Tory, besides her obvious knowledge and professionalism, was that she never tried to convince us one way or the other. She let Janet and I wander, discuss, and babble our thoughts away with no 'swaying' comments or attempts to convince us towards any specific property. She did, however, provide market knowledge and her professional opinion when we directly asked. She let this experience be our decision with her as a mentor...I guess that's the best way to describe it...Tory mentored us through the home search and purchase process to select a home to meet our family's needs! We could not be more happy!Joe & Janet Moser, Mequon

Tory is an outstanding realtor who exhibits great discretion, understanding, expertise and kindness. In the summer of 2013, I engaged Tory to assist me in finding a loft in downtown Milwaukee. My husband was very ill at the time and I was unsure as to what we actually wanted or needed. Within a week, Tory was able to find the perfect loft and patiently guided us through the purchase and move. I am so honored to know this young lady and wholeheartedly recommended her to my friends and family.Claudia & Raymond Gavery, Downtown Milwaukee

With a kid on the way and a two year old running around, most people thought we were crazy for moving. Tory did too, but she knew what we wanted. She helped us price, show and sell our house - which sold in a day - and navigate a buyer's market, avoid a bidding war, and ultimately negotiate and purchase our dream home. Tory is a professional real estate agent, period. She knows what she's doing and will go to at for her clients. More than that, she was fun to work with and made what should have been a stressful experience an enjoyable one. I'd recommend her to anyone.John & Casey Tokarz, Whitefish Bay/Cedarburg

It was such a pleasure to work with Tory to find our new Whitefish Bay home. She is the consummate professional with all the right connections to navigate a tough market. We absolutely love our forever home and could not have found it without Tory! Tory is honest, fair, hardworking and simply a pleasure to be around. Since we looked at many, many homes for more than six months, enjoying our realtor's company was important. And, we still ask her for her trusty list of resources for all things home-related! Tory is a great realtor and she will work very hard for you!Kate & Brad Schroeder, Whitefish Bay It was a pleasure to work with Tory; she is knowledgeable, proactive, and provides just the right level of advice at the right time. She is a true professional! Tory always had the answer to any question or issue, from helping us pick the right home, through closing, and t helping us settle in. She consistently exceeded our expectations.David & Shannon Hession, Mequon Tory is everything you could want in a realtor; knowledgeable, experienced, polished, and personable. She is instantly likeable, and feels more like a friend than a business associate. Tory is trustworthy, hardworking, and patient. Even when we asked to look at many houses and duplexes in multiple neighborhoods, she always made time to do so, with a smile. Although I knew she was 'in-demand', we always felt like we were her most important clients, and never felt rushed or pressured into making a decision. She took time to explain things to us that probably seemed like commonsense to her, but she never made us feel inferior or ignorant. She has the energy of a new realtor, with the experience and connections of a seasoned professional. She even connected us with a great lender, who got us the lowest rate available. More than anything, in a business where people can often seem superficial or 'fake', she puts the REAL in realtor. She is genuine and caring, and goes out of her way to ensure that everything possible is being done for her clients. I truly believe that you cannot find a better realtor than Tory Bruce Armitage.Jacki Parish, Glendale/Grafton

Brian Ruelle is an amazing man. Brian has been a family friend for decades; has been a very successful business owner, by putting his clientele first, and providing premier service. When my then-fiancee and I became interested in moving from our downtown apartment to a home in suburbia, we contacted Brian right away. We met with Brian in December 2016, he took the time to fully understand our wants and needs in a home. We were looking to do something by August, near our lease and wedding dates. Brian began emailing us listings that fit our mold. After about a month, Brian sent us a particular listing outside of our box. He just knew it would pique our interest, and he was absolutely right!! It was right outside of our scope (1.5 baths rather than 2 full, but some motivating worked!) 36 hours later, we owned the home, and we could not be happier!! The house was only on the market for two days, and Brian arranged a private showing the next day. He knew the selling agent and coordinated an offer and acceptance within 12 hours right before the house had a showing. The offer was accepted and people showed up to the showing disappointed the home had already accepted an offer. We were ecstatic! Brian has a perfect balance of personal and professional acumen. His kindliness, knowledge of the home market, and knowledge of renovating helps tremendously while searching for a home. Any question we had, Brian had an answer to how to fix and or switch it out. He is extremely knowledgable in the field. Thank you so much Brian, we love you!

I was very pleased to have Rachel Bloch guiding my recent search for a new home. I had been away from my Milwaukee for years and had never bought a condominium before. I wanted someone who thoroughly knew the local markets, but also needed an individual who was careful in listening to my needs, only showing me options that met my personal preferences. Rachel was perfect. She patiently structured a careful and complete home search, found me the ideal home in just the right location, and even helped with needed financial and legal matters.

We found that Rachel really listened, which is rare. She heard what we were saying and helped us find what we needed and wanted the perfect home!

Rachel Bloch is a very personable, well established and respected real estate professional who knows the area well.

Rachel is hands down the go-to agent for her market. We were very impressed with her knowledge of the market, her sharp negotiating skills and her keen ability to simplify what could be an emotional and complicated transaction. Her level of professionalism is unparalleled, but her willingness to go the extra mile that makes her exceptional.

We need extra assistance due to the fact we listed a property while living in another state...and Rachel and her team were amazing in every way! From arranging the staging to clearing up a city fee prior to closing & everything in between. I would highly recommend Rachel!

Even though Rachel was the seller's agent, she did a great job walking me through the processs, negotiating with the seller for me (as I didn't have an agent) and answering all the questions I had. Helen also did a wonderful job facilitating inspections and walk throughs. They are a great team and did a great job!
