Recent Client Testimonials for Michelle Sparks:
“Michelle Sparks was our realtor, and we couldn’t have been happier in the search for our home in Lake Lanier. She was very accommodating in our long-distance search, going to properties and face timing us so we didn’t have to fly up each time we saw a property that might work. She understood what we were looking for and didn’t waste our time looking at properties that were not the right fit. Her knowledge of the area was a great help in making sure we chose just the right place to fit our needs. Michelle was a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend her to help find your next home.” ~ Donna R.
Michelle Sparks of the Norton Agency was very helpful in the sale of my home in Cumming and the purchase of my new home in Gainesville. I would highly recommend her. She was very good at communicating with me and helping me through the process of negotiating sale and purchase prices, home inspection process, answering any questions I had. ~ Brenda R.
Michelle Sparks is an amazing relator! Her and her team were able to meet all our needs and we sold our home within one month of turning it over to them! I highly recommend Michelle and her team- Michelle is a woman of integrity and I can say that I truly trust her. ~T. Comeaux
Michelle Sparks is the most amazing agent I have ever had the privilege of working with. Gone are the days of realtor caravans but networking is still vital, and Network She DID. She understands the importance of properly showcasing a home for showings as well as digital viewing. From the beginning, Michelle’s goal was to present my home in the best possible light to potential buyers as well as fellow realtors. Michelle helped me with everything from staging to preparing the house for an amazing photo shoot that let everyone see the beauty of my home. When I needed help finding contractors to do those little things that always seemed be required, she helped me get in contact with reputable businesses. She was diplomatic and able to work with a difficult co-seller to ensure everything was handled professionally and timely. She’s simply amazing. I can’t imagine ever buying or selling a home without her by my side. ~ n georgiagal
Michelle Sparks was my selling agent for my home in Gainesville GA. She is now a friend and my Forever Realtor. Mrs. Sparks is an amazing woman and a spectacular agent. She communicated with me throughout the process, gently guided me with choices that resulted in a full price offer on our home within weeks. Michelle staged and virtually staged my home, had amazing photographs presented to show the property at its best and she networked to find the right buyers. There is no reason to ever buy property without an agent, but Michelle Sparks at Sheila Davis Group renewed my faith in just how hassle free the RIGHT Seller’s Agent can make this. She has ALL the connections and well. She’s just Amazing. I’m a friend, a fan, and a customer for life. ~ T. Pitts
Michelle Sparks helped my husband and I buy a new home in Gainesville. Michelle was always professional, knows the area very well, and never made us feel rushed. We are relocating from another state and could not have worked with a better agent. Michelle had the answers to all our questions and went above and beyond. She helped with resources for painting, cleaning and assisted with schedules since we were not local. I would highly recommend Michelle to help you with your next home or land purchase. ~ P. Heckman
Michelle is an outstanding real estate agent. She is an expert on Lake Lanier and surrounding areas, which is exactly what we needed for our first lake home. She listened to our needs and helped us find the perfect house in 5 weeks. We appreciated her patience, and she pointed out things we never knew to consider. Highly recommend her for your next home search! ~rebeccaillsley1
Michelle Sparks was extremely helpful with the sale of my mother’s Lake lanier house. Never having sold a house, I was very nervous in addition to being challenged with technology. Michelle was both responsive and patient as well as knowledgeable and professional. Deborah Jones
Michelle Sparks is a guardian angel. No, I really mean it. She watches over you, and she knows what you need even before you know you need it. As a single woman, buying my first home, I can tell you that she made what could have been a stressful financial situation full of joy and peace. Michelle puts relationships first and is successful because of it. She guides and assists before, during, and after the transaction and is well connected to a network of professionals that help new homeowners because she is so relational. I have never met anyone who combines knowledge and confidence with sweet southern charm in a way that makes everyone want to resolve any issue during a transaction. I can also share that she swooped in and sold a friend of mine’s house in mere days after another agent failed to do so in six months. Go with Michelle! you won’t regret it! ~ J. Jackson
My wife and I recently closed on a property and Michelle Sparks was our realtor and we were incredibly pleased with the professional service provided. She was always responsive. If not available will return our phone call promptly with answers for all of our questions. Michelle is polite, professional, and very dedicated to her job, understands in detail sales / purchasing process and documentations with an eye on important details. We will work with her on our next purchase or sale. In addition, she will be a great asset for every client in the real estate market. Anton A.

We worked with Michelle Sparks at Sheila Davis Group to buy our home and it was a great experience. We are from out of state and had limited time and a lot of ground to cover. Michelle was prepared, informative, flexible and on top of it every step of the way. She understood what we were looking for and offered great advice. She took care of many details and was very helpful meeting contractors and inspectors at the property. She took ownership of the process and made it easy for us. We highly recommend Michelle and Sheila Davis Group when you are purchasing a home. K. Gomez
Are you looking for someone honest? Someone who will bend over backwards to find you the house of your dreams. Someone who will never judge your crazy because, let’s be honest…house buying is quite possibly the craziest thing any of us will ever do and it will bring out a side of you even YOU won’t recognize? Then look no further than Michelle Sparks w/the Sheila Davis Group! My husband and I happened to be out for a Saturday scouting trip, thinking in the next few years we’d like to move “towards the lake”. Fast forward 3 short months…a random phone call on a Saturday morning linking us to Michelle…and we found ourselves signing our names on the dotted line of an absolutely fabulous home! We had a LOT of issues after the settlement process. Lots of drama with the sellers…but the silver lining and the bright part of ALL of it…was Michelle. She went and even STILL goes above and beyond to make sure life in our new home is amazing, and we couldn’t be more thankful for her. A LOT of realtors (sorry!) can be “wolves in sheep’s clothing” in my mind. We’ve met a lot of them. But Michelle…she is someone you can trust, someone who will become a part of your family, and someone who will give everything she has to make your dreams come true. If I haven’t convinced you yet, I almost want to post my personal information to talk to you about her in person. She is the best of the best…hands. Down. R. Po
Michelle Sparks was a joy to work with! She gave us information about each house we visited and began to get a sense of our style after the first two houses. What makes Michelle standout is that she offered her opinion when we asked for it but never tried to sell us on a house we did not like. We will be calling Michelle for all our home buying needs in the future. Thanks Michelle, you are awesome! Nick H
Michelle Sparks enthusiasm was evident from the first time we met. Her patience and willingness to answer so many questions helped us throughout the selling process. She took care of so many details and stayed actively engaged until the sale was finalized. Several times she met inspectors or contractors at the property when we were not able to be present. Thanks, Michelle! G. Baxley
We worked with Michelle Sparks to sell our home in 2018 and had such a great experience that we decided to ask her to help us find a new home in 2019. Once again, she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. She is organized and professional in every way and provides such great customer service. I can’t imagine working with anyone else! ~ M. Glenn
Michelle Sparks helped us buy our home in the mountains! We loved working with her. She gives great advice with no pressure. The experience was smooth and enjoyable. Thank you! ~B. Weems
Michelle is the best real estate professional we have ever worked with. Above and beyond in every interaction. Michelle is organized, knows the area we bought in very well and her follow up was always timely and detailed. Thank you Michelle! ~Zuser
We used Michelle Sparks to help us find our next buy. I am a college student and my family wanted to purchase a house for me to live in for the next four years then Airbnb after I move out. Michelle was an absolute pleasure to work with and made this experience so fun. She helped us find the perfect house that had everything we were looking for. I highly recommend Michelle Sparks for all your housing needs! ~K. Wright
Michelle Sparks recently helped our family find a new home for my daughter in Gainesville. We were shown several houses and were selective in what we were looking for and Michelle was informative, responsive and professional. Her guidance during this process was invaluable and we are very pleased with the new home. –T. Perry
