Seamless Experience, Outstanding Support

Rachael was professional, extremely friendly, and always responsive, making our home purchase remarkably smooth—even though we could visit the property only once. She went above and beyond by handling the inspection and final walkthrough for us while we were out of town. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, personable, and proactive realtor.

A Neighbor, a Friend, and a Great Realtor

Rachael is both a neighbor and a friend - which some might argue could complicate working together in a professional setting, especially when selling your most valuable asset. However, Rachael keeps it real. She approaches every step of the process - from listing to inspection - with honesty, transparency, and integrity, always keeping the best interests of both the seller and buyer in mind. She goes above and beyond, from marketing the home to managing showings and ensuring a smooth closing. Rachael is a true people person - socially aware and able to navigate all types of personalities with ease. We deeply appreciate her expertise, passion for her work, and the care she showed us throughout what can often be a stressful process.

Expert Guidance, Outstanding Service – Highly Recommend!

I cannot recommend Rachael Harms highly enough! From the very beginning of our home-buying journey, she was professional, knowledgeable, and truly had my best interests at heart. She took the time to understand what I was looking for, provided insightful market advice, and guided me through every step of the process with patience and expertise. Her responsiveness and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless. She went above and beyond to negotiate on my behalf, ensuring I got the best possible deal. Her dedication, integrity, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. Thanks to Rachael Harms, our family found the perfect home, and I couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a realtor who is not only skilled but also truly invested in your success, look no further!

Fantastic Agent

My wife and I have bought and sold many homes but have never worked with someone as clearly professional and extremely helpful as Rachael! Full of ideas, very supportive. She and her entire family even took the time to hand out flyers for our home at a local music festival! Highly recommended her😍

Aww Inspiring

This is not the first time I have had the pleasure of utilizing Rachael to assist me in selling and purchasing a home however, the situation was very different this time. Rachael has truly been a lifesaver. My situation was not ideal however, she consistently went above and beyond to make things work. Whether it was dealing with unexpected challenges, tight timelines, or difficult negotiations, Rachael remained calm, professional, and fully committed to the overall success. Her ability to stay positive and proactive during stressful moments was a source of comfort for me. No matter the hurdles we faced, Rachael kept me informed, provided creative solutions, and was always willing to put in the extra effort to ensure I got the best possible outcome. Even if that meant she had to pull weeds or plant flowers herself. She was always willing to go that extra mile and I can't thank her enough. If you're looking for a realtor who will stand by you, no matter the circumstances, I highly recommend Rachael Harms. Her dedication and determination are unmatched, and she made a challenging process feel manageable and even rewarding.

Amazing experience always

This is my second time using Rachael as my listing agent to sell my home. Once again, she helped us to sell so quickly, effectively, and above our asking price. I could not be happier with the process and communication and I will use Rachael and her team always for my next home(s).
