Emily was amazing to work with I felt comfortable asking questions and ranting if I needed to. She was calm, listened and explained the process without becoming overwhelmed by my personality.

Emily is amazing, she knows the Rapid City and surrounding area very well. Gave us excellent recommendations on where to look for houses. She gave us recommendations for local lenders and a local house inspector and they were both great to work with. I would definitely recommend Emily. If/when we decide to sell our house I know who I'm contacting first. Thank you Emily

Moving is difficult. Moving across the country is nerve wracking. Emily spent time easing the anxiety through her positivity and patience. She listened to us, investigated options, and spent time making video tours of properties. She often reminded us that we'd find the "right" place and when that happened, she was ready with more information, more support and more expertise. We made a trip to see the house and she spent an entire morning with us, truly welcoming us home. Trusting Emily was one of the best decisions we've made this year!

Henry took the time to understand my wants and needs. He was able to find me a place that exceeded all my expectations for an unbeatable price. He’s knowledgeable about real estate in the black hills from both a professional and personal perspective. He is a great negotiator and was able to provide me with multiple options to ensure we could close on a property with a good deal. He fights for his clients to ensure they get the best deal. He helped me purchase my first home and made the process seamless. He went above and beyond to help me understand the home buying process and how to identify deal-breaking issues with properties. I will continue to use Henry as my realtor as long as he’s in business. If you are interested in finding deals you didn’t even know existed then contact Henry and he will hook it up!

We were truly fortunate in the selling process to have Henry represent us and thoroughly look out for our best interest being a now lifelong friend and also living in the neighbourhood where we were selling. That helped out a lot, but even if you’re not residing in the same area, he still goes above and beyond to thoroughly understand where your home is located, what the market needs, trending options and he researches on what’s going all around your listing in order to give you the best possible advice. He really does personalize the process for selling your home making sure that he’s listening to your needs and also making sure that he gets you in the right place for selling that you also feel comfortable with! Henry is also incredibly honest and genuine when it comes to advising you on the best way to get your home ready and where to really focus your needs on preparation that will be the most cost-effective yet make your listing stand out. From start to finish Henry provides outstanding communication and follow up when it comes to your sale and questions from potential buyers as well as every single question you throw at him! And sometimes during the selling process, one can feel let down and discouraged by potential buyers requests or demands however, Henry always keeps it incredibly positive and will fight for your needs and your wants. No better way to describe it that he really does go to bat for you! You can expect nothing less than exceptional knowledge and understanding of the market and still providing that personalized experience to make it as smooth for you through the selling process as possible.

2720 Wisconsin Avenue Rapid City
Mike was phenomenal to coordinate all repairs he suggested to the house before putting it up for sale. He went the extra mile to make sure everything was done quickly and correctly. Ascend and his team are the best realtor company I have ever worked with. I highly recommend Mike for selling or purchasing a property. He is a very down to earth person and will do what is required for to buy or sell your property.
23487 Dry Sage Lane Rapid City
As first-time homebuyers, buying a home can be a daunting process. Mike came recommended to us by friends who worked with him previously, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Mike was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain every step in a way that was easy to understand, which made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable and even exciting. We would highly recommend Mike to anyone—especially first-time buyers looking for someone who is trustworthy, professional, and genuinely helpful.

4600 Lahinch Street Rapid City
Ashley was highly recommended by my daughter and her husband based on their experience with her as their realtor when they recently purchased a house. From the first call and meeting, Ashley immediately impressed me with her organization and passion for helping individuals find the right fit in a house/property. She was unfailingly generous with her time and talents (which are many). The team she recommended (mortgage lender, insurance agent, and house inspector) was equally professional and timely with all communication. Since the sale, Ashley continues to be a support and resource. Over the years, I have worked with different realtors as I purchased and sold a total of nine houses in seven different states; she at the very top of the list of realtors with whom I have worked. Ashley has my highest recommendation, without a single reservation.
