I'm Sarah Ingles — a REALTOR®, Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®), and Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (CPCU®) serving the Des Moines metro area.
I specialize in three of the most complex real estate situations families face: senior downsizing, probate and inherited property sales, and estate property transitions. These aren't side services — they're my entire focus.
My CPCU® background gives my clients an advantage most agents can't offer. Before becoming a REALTOR®, I spent years in property and casualty insurance, which means I catch coverage issues, vacancy clause gaps, and deferred maintenance red flags on older homes before they become deal-killers. For families managing inherited or estate properties, that expertise has recovered thousands of dollars in equity that a standard agent would have missed.
I work with seniors who are ready to right-size, adult children helping aging parents through a move, and executors navigating the Iowa probate process for the first time. I understand the emotional weight of these transitions — and I know how to move them forward with patience, clarity, and zero pressure.
I serve the entire Des Moines metro: Urbandale, West Des Moines, Ankeny, Waukee, Clive, Johnston, Grimes, Norwalk, Altoona, and all of Central Iowa.
If you're dealing with a senior move, an inherited property, or an estate sale, I'd welcome the conversation.
