Frequently asked questions

Straight answers before you get started

Here are the questions buyers and sellers ask me most — about my experience, the towns I serve, and how I work. If yours isn't here, just call or text me at (352) 516-8664.

How long have you been a Realtor?
I've been a licensed Florida Realtor for 21 years, licensed since 2005 (license SL3135723). I practice with LoKation Real Estate, serving families across South Lake County.
What areas do you serve?
I work throughout South Lake County and nearby — Clermont, Groveland, Minneola, Mascotte, Montverde, Winter Garden, and Leesburg, plus Bushnell and Lake Panasoffkee in Sumter County. Clermont, Groveland, and Minneola are where I sell most often.
Do you work with first-time buyers?
Yes, and it's some of my favorite work. First-time buyers get patient, step-by-step guidance with no pressure, so you understand each stage before you get to it. Buyers often mention that I'm with them every step of the way.
Do you help sellers price their homes?
Yes — and getting the price right is where a sale is often won or lost. I start with a market analysis of your specific home: recent comparable sales in your neighborhood, what you'd be competing against, and your home's condition and upgrades. From there we set a price built to bring strong offers instead of sitting on the market. It's a no-obligation conversation — call or text (352) 516-8664 and I'll give you an honest read for your home.
Can you help me relocate from out of state?
Definitely. I've guided buyers relocating to South Lake County from as far as Montana and New Jersey. A lot of the early work happens by phone and video, so you can make real progress before you arrive. See how I help with relocation →
What kinds of homes do you sell?
A wide range — from first homes to move-up houses, including lakefront and chain-of-lakes properties, new construction, and foreclosure/REO homes. I represent both buyers and sellers across all of them.
How many homes have you sold?
241 homes sold and tracked on my Zillow profile — a record anyone can verify. I hold a 5.0-star rating across 10 Zillow reviews from buyers and sellers.
What's the best way to reach you?
Call or text me at (352) 516-8664, or email mitchellstiefel@gmail.com. I'm based in Clermont, FL 34711 and work by appointment — but a call or text is the fastest way to get me.
Which brokerage are you with?
I'm a Realtor with LoKation Real Estate. My Florida license is SL3135723, and I've been licensed since 2005.

Still have a question? Just ask.

No pressure and no obligation — just honest answers from someone who's done this for 21 years. Call or text and I'll get right back to you.
