Michelle Boston
Agent
Michelle Boston brings professionalism and a client-first mindset to every transaction, helping buyers and sellers across Northwest Indiana achieve their real estate goals. She joined Nicole Hanson Realty LLC to work with clients who want a responsive agent and clear communication from first conversation through closing.
Michelle takes time upfront to understand what a client is actually solving for — a shorter commute, a better school district, more space, lower maintenance, or a lower monthly payment. That clarity keeps the search focused and makes it obvious when the right property appears. Every offer she writes is backed by recent comparable sales and a realistic view of the home's condition.
For sellers, Michelle prices from closed sales in the immediate neighborhood, advises on the specific repairs and staging changes that improve both showings and appraisal, and markets each listing with professional photography and full MLS syndication across Lake, Porter, and Cook Counties. She stays close to the transaction after the offer is accepted, managing inspection negotiations, appraisal timelines, and lender conditions.
How Michelle Helps Home Buyers
Buying a home in Northwest Indiana is rarely just a search problem. Michelle starts by confirming your financing, mapping your budget to real monthly costs — principal, interest, property taxes, insurance and any HOA dues — and narrowing the search to the communities and school districts that actually match how you live.
From there you get comparable sales before every offer, a candid read on property condition, and negotiation built around inspection findings and appraisal risk rather than list price alone. Michelle coordinates with your lender, title company and inspector so each contract deadline is met and closing day arrives without surprises.
How Michelle Helps Home Sellers
Pricing decides how a listing performs. Michelle builds a comparative market analysis from verified closed sales in your immediate neighborhood, then walks the home with you to identify the repairs, decluttering and staging changes that return more than they cost — and the ones that do not.
Every listing is marketed with professional photography, complete and accurate MLS data, and syndication to the major search portals so buyers across Lake, Porter and Cook Counties see it. You receive honest showing feedback and early guidance on adjustments, plus hands-on management of inspection responses, appraisal issues and lender conditions through closing.
