Chris is well versed on the local market and what to look for while viewing a property. We toured several homes looking for the right spot for our family and Chris was great to work with throughout the process. During a difficult inspection and negotiation period, Chris was outstanding in helping navigate the process. Chris' knowledge of construction, renovation ideas and the local market are far beyond the average real estate agent.

Chris and the Betts team were professional and timely with all aspects of communication. Incredibly helpful with describing processes with clarity which allowed us to make confident decisions. Chris’s attention to our families needs was genuine, and that understanding was demonstrated throughout the home sale, search, and purchase process.

I’ve worked with Chris on multiple deals prior to this sale. Each experience has been great, so I felt confident partnering with him again. He initially won me over with his responsiveness and optimism about getting deals done, and even after several transactions, he’s kept that same energy and enthusiasm. Chris is great at what he does. He knows the Des Moines/surrounding markets extremely well. His experience shows; he’s able to speak confidently and provide helpful context whenever questions came up about the market or the selling process. He’s also super communicative throughout the entire process. We stayed in close contact through text and jumped on calls whenever we needed to align or make real-time strategic decisions. One thing I especially appreciate about Chris is that he truly makes you feel like he has your back. We were clear about our goals for the sale from the start, including where we had flexibility, and we stayed closely aligned throughout. Chris consistently approached conversations, contracts, counterproposals, etc. with our best interests in mind. This property was also a multi-family, with multiple current tenants and a property manager involved; he did a great job owning communication between everyone and the buyer's realtor, including at times when the current tenants weren't so happy the property was being shown/sold, so we didn't have to step in. Even when a few curveballs came our way, he was proactive about pushing back or gathering the right information to ensure we were well taken care of. Overall, if you work with Chris and his team, you can feel confident they’ll look out for your best interests and watch out for you every step of the way.

Working with Rachel West has been such a meaningful experience, not just because she’s an amazing realtor, but because she’s been a close friend for several years. When someone you trust on a personal level also happens to know the real estate world inside and out, it creates this rare mix of comfort and confidence—and that’s exactly what Rachel brought to the entire process. Her market knowledge is unmatched. She listened, understood our priorities, and used her expertise to guide us toward a home that truly feels like “us.” She helped us find the most perfect home, complete with an absolutely incredible backyard oasis that my family and I still can’t believe is ours. Rachel’s communication was exactly what we needed during such a stressful time: clear, consistent, and full of patience. She checked in often, explained each step in a way that made sense, and always made us feel like we had someone in our corner. Her professionalism never wavered, even with our friendship layered on top. She was prepared, thoughtful, and fully dedicated to making sure we felt supported and excited through every stage. I feel so grateful—not just for the home she helped us find, but for the care, attention, and heart she put into the entire journey. I cannot say enough good things about Rachel and would highly recommend her to anyone!
