Our estate needed to get our house sold and were just not getting the level of communication and inputs from our previous agent, in stepped Nora and Latrice. Nora came highly recommended by our niece and so we called her, explaining concerns on just not feeling like our family home was getting the inputs we needed to feel like it was a priority. Nora initially asked us what we felt we needed in an agent along with explaining how she would plan on marketing it, along with strategies for selling a home that needed some “tender loving care.” We were pleasantly surprised with the initial level of activity generated, and all along the process getting excellent, and regular updates and communication. Also to be noted was that we did this whole transaction from out of state which could have added levels of complexity, but Nora and Latrice made that aspect easy to navigate and we had no issues or concerns to speak of from that. We closed and sold the house in a period of one month. Could not have been more pleased. Closing from out of state was also handled easily and professionally with the help of Nora and Latrice. So the bottom line as far as we were concerned is, exactly what we would expect from a realty professional is exactly what you will get from the Home Sweet Des Moines team!

Sarah was incredible to work with from start to finish. She reached out to us about a home in our preferred neighborhood the day it was listed, scheduled a showing immediately, and helped us secure an accepted offer within 24 hours. We had been searching for a house that truly checked our boxes for quite a while, and her thoughtfulness and attention to what we were looking for made all the difference. Her knowledge of the market and guidance on how to make our offer attractive in a competitive situation were invaluable. We felt supported and confident throughout the process and would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and proactive realtor.
