My name is Leslie Doran and I have been consistently selling and marketing homes in Michigan since 1993. I worked for Pulte Homes for 17 years where I was professionally trained to market and sell homes. I left Pulte Homes in 2009 and went into general real estate. I now have the opportunity to work with the 1000 clients I had sold homes to over the years, along with their friends and families!
I listen to my clients so I can make sure I am always working in their best interest, but most importantly, communication is my biggest strength!
My degree is in Marketing, so I always try new and different ideas when I am listing a home. I try to constantly "stir the pot" to make sure your home is not just "listed" for sale, it is properly marketed from day one!
I look forward to making your home buying or selling needs my #1 priority.

Phenomenal in every way!! In these unprecedented times with the Covid-19, Leslie took the extra steps to make sure our house would show to the best of its abilities. Leslie was able to organize showing of the house from the outside only while the stay at home order was in effect. Once the real-estate market opened, she was assertive and began showings immediately. She was sure to contact the other agents in regards to using hand sanitizer and masks and having prospective buyers take their shoes off before entering our house. This gave us some piece of mind in regards to people entering our house with a pandemic going on. She is insightful, encouraging and is knowledgeable about the market. Leslie is very professional and was able to answer any and all questions we had regarding the market. Our experience with her was everything we hoped for and more. We loved working with her!

If it wasn't for Leslie, we would not have found our dream home. Leslie's experience and connections helped us find the perfect house to start the next phase of our lives. As first-time home buyers, Leslie made the process so simple and always made herself available whenever we had questions. Whether you have a big budget or a small budget to buy, Leslie will treat you with compassion and respect. If we are ever in the market to buy or sell, Leslie will be the first person that I call! Thank you, Leslie! None of this would have been possible without you!

Leslie Doran is an extremely competent and knowledgeable real estate agent. Her knowledge of the area and her ability to come up with the best plan to market and sell a house is top notch. We felt confident right from the start that Leslie would do a good job—and she did. She always answers phone calls, texts, etc., quickly and sets up Open Houses as needed. Her follow up and negotiation skills are top notch. Besides all of this, she is a nice person with a great personality. Thank you, Leslie for doing such a good job in selling our home!

Leslie did an amazing job helping me sell my condo! From the beginning of the process to the end she was there helping me with the process. During our initial meeting she put together a full market analysis that gave me an idea of what we could sell for. Her marketing was wonderful with high quality pictures and an amazing video tour. All the knowledge and hard work that Leslie put in payed off with a full price offer within days. In addition she helped with the negotiation of some furniture the buyers were interested in purchasing. Her services did not end there though. She was involved all the way to the closing. She was a true professional and pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her!!

Leslie was recommended to us by a friend. From the beginning..she was professional, knowledgeable and worked tirelessly on our behalf to sell our home. She was always available to answer our questions or concerns and provided prompt feedback regarding showings. She put all her energy into marketing our home..often trying new ideas..so it would get the maximum exposure. There were a few challenges in selling our home. Despite those challenges, Leslie never got discouraged and was committed to finding the right buyer. Not only is she an excellent real estate agent with many years of experience.. she is just a great overall human :) We highly recommend her!

Leslie is a great agent. I highly recommend her for all your real estate transaction needs. She flew back from Florida to make sure I could look at the property right away. She proceed to negotiate a good price and get the deal signed immediately. She has all the right contacts from inspectors to mortgage brokers and made the whole process easy. I will use her for all my future real estate transactions.

Leslie is an amazing person & realtor. You want to work with her during the exciting process of purchasing a home! Our family was moving back to Michigan from overseas and she spent time showing family members & friends homes for consideration. Once we arrived home, she provided her full support & time in finding the perfect home. Her knowledge of the area and quick assessment of our tastes made for a very efficient search. She also helped close out the transaction and looked out for our best interest along the way.

I definitely want to thank Leslie for assisting me in the purchase of my first home.

Leslie Doran was a dream to work with! She has been doing this for a long time and her expertise is more than evident. She was incredibly knowledgable about the process and answered all of our questions thoroughly and timely. After a failed inspection, we had a bit of a time crunch and she assured us that we'd find something in time that suited us. Sure enough, we found our new home that we absolutely love. Leslie guided us through the whole negotiation process with incredible skill, professionalism and expertise, and we were confident that her guidance was leading us in the right direction. Sure enough!
Her knowledge of the local community and individual neighborhoods is second-to-none. She also has experience working for a builder so she has more knowledge than your average realtor in actual construction and quality. She can spot issues in a home with an eagle eye.
I cannot say enough good things about working with Leslie. If I could give her 10 stars out of 5, I would. The best!

Leslie is by far the epitome of an amazing, thoughtful, and dedicated real estate agent. She was patient through the process and always gave her honest opinion of homes we were walking thru, and potential offers.
Even after an inspection on another home went haywire, and we felt as if we didn't know where to go next - Leslie reassured us we'd find the perfect fit. And not only did we find that fit, but we literally found it within two hours of that inspection gone wrong.
Not only will she look out for your best interest, but she will push to get the results you desire. She's there for YOU, and I'm truly not sure how many agents can even compete with her sincerity and energy.
Straight up, Doran 2020 - I'm writing her in.

Leslie recently assisted me in the purchase of a condo. She was thorough in her preparation, attentive to my needs and a source of help when I had questions or needed advice. I felt well served and believe she went above and beyond the average. Her experience in residential sales was helpful in my securing the property I wanted at a price I was comfortable with.
I would recommend her. I subsequently asked her to represent me in the sale of my present home and have received the same excellent service.

As someone who is incredibly type A and hates life stress, I was very nervous about the house purchasing process. We cannot say enough great things about Leslie. She is so on top of everything and organized. She made the process so easy and stress free because we could relax knowing she had everything handled. She’s easy to communicate with, approachable with all of our questions, trustworthy, and very knowledgeable. She was a great advocate and we couldn’t imagine doing it without her.

I had a great experience with Leslie and would highly recommend her to any of my friends and family as she actually came to me as a referral. Having worked in the mortgage industry previously I thought I had a good amount of knowledge going into the selling process but I was in fact mistaken. Luckily, Leslie was there to guide me through effortlessly, responding to emails very quickly and sending me updated purchase agreements late hours into the night (which just goes to show her work ethic).
Although the home buying and selling process is never without its own set of obstacles, Leslie made me feel confident the whole way through, which personally I think is all you can ask for.

After cloisng on a new home, we needed to quickly sell the home we had just moved from. Leslie made it happen and exceeded all expectations. We received multiple offers on the home and Leslie took the time to review all of them with us as well as negotiate with the sellers agents to get us the best possible offer and terms, AND she did all of this on Mothers Day. We were able to sell for more than listing and could not be happier with the level of service Leslie provided us. I would definitly recommend her for any of your buying/selling needs.

This is the second time we have had Leslie help buy and sell a house. I wouldn’t use anyone else. She is always available to answer questions and never pushes you off to an assistant. She did a fabulous job helping us get our house ready to sell from tips to declutter to a professional decorator to help us stage the home. I’m super picky and she was always available to show me as many houses as I needed before finding the perfect one. I highly recommend her for all your buying and selling needs.

This was the first time working with Leslie and will not be the last! From the beginning when she came to review my house before selling, looking at the house after her suggestion and then selling the house, she was truthful, friendly, fun, and very knowledgeable of the entire selling process!
When looking for a home to buy, she would be honest with her comments and she was right! Together we found a place she could see me living in and I liked. Turned out, my new home is perfect for me!
If you want an excellent home selling or buying experience, Leslie Doran is the person for you!!!

Leslie was a pleasure to work with. Being a first time home buyer she guided me through the process and helped me understand each step.
She has a wealth of knowledge and resources that helped me find the home I was looking for. She worked with the seller to get me a tour my new home before the open house.
She was a great negotiator, got my offer accepted on a home with several interested buyers.

I have never met a more honest, trustworthy, real and hard working individual. We have been working with Leslie for some time going from looking at rental properties to purchasing our first home. Leslie has been there every step of the way. She was totally understanding when "life happened" and we had to put things on hold, but was also right there when it was go time! She took an active interest in my family, sending us tons of house, areas and options that she thought would be a good fit for us. She always had an answer to our questions, even while on her much deserved vacation!! She was honest in giving us her professional opinion and really worked to get us the best deal on our home! She walked us through every house explaining everything as we went and even entertained the kids so my husband and I could get a good look at the house. Leslie knows her stuff when it comes to real estate and we put 100% faith in her to get us into our first family home! Simply put....she is AWESOME!! My husband and I are forever grateful to Leslie for all of her hard work, patience and persistence in getting us what we wanted out of our home purchase. Do yourselves a favor and hire Leslie Doran...you will NOT be disappointed! Thanks Leslie for all you did for our family!!

Leslie was a pleasure to work with on selling my home. Very knowledgeable on what I could do to make my house presentable. Leslie had my home completely staged for showings and ensured the selling points of my home were highlighted. Leslie always looked out for my interests when dealing with other agents, and explained every step in the process and what my options were. Leslie always responded quickly with my questions or concerns about the process of selling my home.
I would definitively contact Leslie in the future for selling or buying a home and would definitely recommend my family to use her as their agent as well.

Leslie was amazing from our very first meeting until the closing on our home. She always responded to our phone calls and text messages promptly. We had previously tried to sell our home with no success. She was able to market our home with a video that showcased detail of the home. We had a couple of open houses and multiple showings with multiple offers. She kept us positive through the whole process. We felt confident in her skills and would highly recommend Leslie to anyone trying to sell or purchase a home.

As first time home seller Michigan market was overwhelming to say the least. When we decided to sell our home and move cross country in a very short period, we were terrified about prospects of managing a property remotely and importantly selling in a decent time frame. But when we met with Leslie for the very first time, we instantly felt we were in good hands, she never treated it as just another business transaction from day one. She was there every step of the way with practical and logical advice. And importantly she took away out stress factor during one of the toughest moves of our personal lives, we can't thank her enough for that.
She provided us the guidance we needed when we had no idea where to go. And more importantly she would always lay out and pros and the cons and would speak up when the hard truth needed to be heard, and never once felt it was a one sided conversation. Another great quality with Leslie is that she is very detailed. As first time sellers we had ton of questions (all the time :) ) Not one time did she leave us hanging for answers or waiting for a call back, always prompt and courteous.
We have nothing but AWESOME things to say about Leslie. She was incredibly helpful and resourceful throughout the home selling process. You can’t go wrong appointing her for your real estate needs. She is simply remarkable realtor with a pretty grounded personality. There is a reason why she is one of the TOP real estate agent in the State :).

Leslie was an answer to prayer. My husband and I were relocating for work and had a really short window to house hunt and then move. Leslie made us a priority and right away got ahold of us and started planning home visits. She was super insightful when I came to the city’s that each home was located in and what the taxes would look like. She’s worked on the contractor side of the reality business as well so she’s able to see certain things inside of a house that a normal buyer wouldn’t be looking for. After just two days, we were able to find a house that we loved and she took on the rest. She negotiated with the seller and was able to get us more than we ever thought possible at closing. I would recommend her to anyone and if we ever decide to sell down the road, Leslie will be the first person I call. She truly is the best in the business.

From day one, Leslie has been the most supportive realtor we have ever encountered! Leslie has the perfect team including a professional stager and photographer to make our home shine on the internet and in person. She advised us on making settle changes to our home to create a more neutral feel to attract a wider range of audience when we went to list it. As soon as our home hit the market, we had thousands of views on Zillow and over 1800 saves. Within 3 weeks, our home sold. Leslie is extremely organized and attentive. From start to finish, she made this process a breeze. I would recommend Leslie to all my friends and family.

Leslie definitely knows what she's doing and made the selling process effortless for us. She was able to get us the price we wanted, kept us well informed, was available to answer our questions quickly. She even went to the house to check on our cat and turn on lights/open blinds before a showing when we weren't available to be there. She had our home staged and that turned out so well, her photographer also did an excellent job for presenting our home on line. She has a delightful personality and was a pleasure to have working for us! She should definitely be the gal for you,you won't be disappointed!

I would highly recommend Leslie Doran to anyone in need of a real estate professional. If anyone has given Leslie a lower score, it is because they did not take her advise. Leslie doesn't sugar coat anything but by listening to her, we sold our house within a week. That was not an easy task as it was the week of July 4th and everyone was away!
When I first met with Leslie, she told me exactly what it was going to take to sell the house: Getting all the clutter out, painting a couple of rooms with neutral colors, and her calling in her stager. I did not challenge Leslie and cleaned out my cluttered closets, had the walls painted in beige (should have done that a few years ago)! Feedback from buyers was extremely positive as to how the house showed and I owe that to Leslie. I am most positive the house would have sold in under a week if it had a bigger yard!
When I received an offer, Leslie was right there to provide advice on the negotiations. She had already helped me with setting the list price and she knows the market so well, the final sale price was exactly what I had hoped for. This was my 8th move and 8th time selling a house, and Leslie is the best I have worked with! She came recommended by a coworker and I cannot thank him enough for the recommendation.
I am now on the east coast and may not have a chance to work with Leslie again but if you have the opportunity, I would highly suggest calling her!
