Jessica is amazing!! She was so helpful and patient throughout our entire buying process

Jessica is amazing!! She was so helpful and patient throughout our entire buying process. We never felt rushed or pressured to make quick decisions with her. She gave us time and space, she was quick to respond, reliable, and was always ready for the last-minute ideas we had. She guided us through every step and gave answers to any and every question we had. Her positivity and adaptability helped so much! We are lucky to have met Jessica. She will be the first person we call if we need help again in the future.

My wife and I recently moved to Iowa from Illinois

My wife and I recently moved to Iowa from Illinois

My wife and I recently moved to Iowa from Illinois. Our excellent broker in Illinois recommended Nora Crosthwaite of Home Sweet Des Moines to represent us in the purchase of our new home. Nora shared incredibly valuable information for us considering we were new to the Des Moine metro area. As we received listings from Nora she took the time to discuss each one to educate us on the market and brought us to view many of them. We received a listing for what appeared to be the perfect home for us and she immediately booked a tour for us that day and the rest is history. We now own that home and we could not be happier. We also had the distinct pleasure of working with two others on Nora’s team. Jeannie Crosby and Jessica Shaley. Jeannie provided incredibly valuable information with us and took a lot of time to help us with the process. Jessica too spent time with us when we needed it. It was a joy dealing with all of these extraordinary ladies. They are incredibly knowledgeable, professional and above all caring. They were interested in us and were only interested in what was right for us. No pressure, incredible response time and just warm and caring people. We wish we could give them more than the highest rating. As a real estate attorney in Illinois, I have worked with many brokers. Nora and this team are amazing and we would refer them to anyone was looking to buy or sell a home. We doubt anyone would care more and we doubt anyone would know more.

Jessica was wonderful to work with! She went above and beyond the call of duty to help my family and I find a home that suited us well during a time when the market was changing in the blink of an eye! Working with us out- of-towners when homes were flying on and off the market like wild fire was not an easy task! She made sure we saw everything we requested or showed interest in, whether it was in person, via face time or video and photos! She was great from beginning to end! We would highly recommend you work with Jessica - she won't disappoint!

I cannot recommend Nora enough! Could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and friendly realtor to help my husband and I (who were first time home buyers). She made us feel extremely comfortable, and explained everything in perfect detail for us. She has since kept in contact and has made many company recommendations for us. She just has a personal touch that we were not expecting, but we are so happy to be “in her circle” now.

Working with Nora to sell our house was a wonderful experience

Working with Nora to sell our house was a wonderful experience. She communicated throughout the entire process and her support network was second to none. Even working with my demanding schedule and during a time when working from home during a pandemic could severely disrupt access to the home, Nora was able to schedule, show , inform, educate and lead through the entire process.

Working with Nora was great both for purchasing our new home and selling our previous one

Working with Nora was great both for purchasing our new home and selling our previous one. Countless times Nora asked questions that we hadn't thought to ask or made clarifying points to ensure we fully understood important details. Our house was barely on the market before we had our asking price met and a few other important conditions met during our sale.

Nora sold our home for asking price in 8 days! We truly loved partnering with Nora. She made the entire process extremely easy and stress-free. We really appreciated her taking care of the professional photography and staging. We will be referring anyone we know to Nora as she more than exceeded our expectations.

Nora exhibited excellent industry knowledge and utilized data to help us in determining the sale of our old house and purchase of our new. She utilized historical data unlike other realtors we worked with to help discover an appropriate price to list. She used different marketing streams, Facebook, Zillow, postcards, interoffice emails, etc to get the word out about our listing and sold within two weeks. Highly recommend
