Fantastic experience: Adam Miller was very professional in helping us find a house. From showings, to phone calls, to the final sale. Excellent communication, low pressure, and very informative, to name a few of his qualities. We were pleased with the help that he gave us and he made the whole process smooth and easy. Definitely would recommend him to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Adam was amazing in helping me buy our home in Berlin. He was available and stayed with me all the way. We're from out of state, so things can be more complicated, but he made it so easy, and followed through to the end. He was very courteous and professional with the services he provided.

We appreciate your good review. We are happy you had a good experience with Marcus & thank you for choosing Kaufman!
Fantastic experience: I bought a house at the end of 2024 with the help of Kobe Shetler, and I could not have asked for a better realtor. He was not the listing agent on the house, but I reached out to him to help guide me through the buying process and I am very glad I did. Kobe walked me through every single step from the very beginning to the very end, including explaining things I did not even know I should be asking about. He somehow made the entire process feel way less stressful than I originally thought it would be. He sat with me at the bank when we signed the final papers. He stayed until the very last paper was signed, even though he absolutely did not have to. That pretty much sums up how he operates. He goes above and beyond, without you even asking him to. Overall, Kobe was awesome throughout the entire process, incredibly helpful, and just great to work with. I didn’t just feel like I had a realtor helping me buy a house, I felt like I had a friend walking me through the process. I would 100% buy with him again and recommend him to anyone who wants a realtor that actually shows up and cares.
Fantastic experience: We have bought multiple houses through Kobe and each time it’s gone very smooth. The communication was great and we trust him fully. Won’t use anyone else
Fantastic experience: Helped me find my forever home!
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience working with Kobe. He was always responsive, professional, and polite throughout the entire process. It was clear he knew his information well, and I felt confident and informed every step of the way. Overall, working with him was smooth and stress free, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable agent.

Hello Kimberly! We are so happy you are enjoying your new home & that Susan could help you along the way. Thank you for your kind words & for choosing Kaufman!
Fantastic experience: Cliff Sparng and Kendra made selling our father's home easier and less stressful than I ever thought possible. I realize this home was nothing compared to the estates and properties they typically sell but for my father it was his largest asset. What I appreciated about Cliff was he treated us no different than if he was selling a million dollar property. He was always available for our questions and if he said he was going to do something or be somewhere you could count on it. Integrity and a man of his word. His co worker/helper Kendra was absolutely wonderful and so very patient with my elderly father. Truly a great team. We ourselves have lived at the same residence for 32 years and haven't dealt with realtors, moving and all the logistics but they so patiently walked us through every step with helping our dad. We will definitely be calling them if the day comes we need to move. I can't count how many people we've recommended them to already. Awesome team with great results.
Thank-you for the kind words, we agree Cliff and Kendra make an awesome team.
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Kauffman on a couple of occasions and have been very pleased. Susan helped us find a home when we moved to the area and as we recently purchased a vacant parcel. We love working with her as she was very prompt in response answering all of our questions and extremely helpful throughout the searching and buying process. We will definitely be using her for any future needs and would recommend her if anyone is in need of a realtor
Thanks for the note Garrett. Susan is a good one and we appreciate you taking time to post this review.
Fantastic experience: We used Kaufman's to auction off both the household property and the house/land after my Dad's passing. Jake Schlabach was amazingly kind and helped us every step of the way from cleaning up the property and advertising the auctions to support day of and after the online auctions. He and Kevin Lehman made the process easy! They were quick to respond, fair in their dealings and willing to help us with our specific needs. I can't recomend them highly enough if you are looking to sell an estate!
Fantastic experience: Susan Crilow is the best realtor. Always a great experience selling and buying with her. Fast responses and she works hard during the process. Appreciate all her expertise and wisdom in her business. Would recommend Susan to anyone buying or selling.
Fantastic experience: Susan Crilow is absolutely amazing!! She has done lots of work for us and always been professional, very organized, and honest. I would highly recommend her as a realtor, she is the best!
Negative experience: Did business with these folks one time recently. Not overly impressed with their online auction. I felt that some items were certainly misrepresented in description and photos. As one example, items claimed in the description to be in working order but when I picked up the item I found the cord had been cut with no plug among other issues. Hard to claim in working order when it has no cord. Yes there were preview times available and yes I am certainly aware of how auctions work. I deal with a lot of auction companies around the region and find most do a much better job representing and photographing their items for their online auctions. I also emailed this company with questions regarding items before the auction and received no response. On a positive note, on pickup day everyone was friendly and helpful and for the most part seem to be organized.
Fantastic experience: I have been to many of their auctions. They have the best realtors / auctioneers. All very professional and super easy to work with. Cliff Sprang, Kendra Shetler, Kate Overton, Jimmy Mast...just to name a few. Highly recommended…
Appreciate the kind words.
Fantastic experience: Excellent, professional and helpful
Thanks Randy, appreciate the feedback.
Fantastic experience: Great I have purchased several items from them
Fantastic experience: Awesome auctions
Fantastic experience: Great folks to do business with.Our agent Kylie Howell kept us updated on the progress of the sale.We would highly recommend them .
Fantastic experience: We had a great experience with Melissa Weller. She was very professional and always responded to our questions and concerns right away. I would highly recommend her and Kaufman Realty.
Fantastic experience: My husband and I received great results when having Dave Kaufman give us a value of our property a couple years ago. He was very easy to work with and understood what we needed. Very professional. Also within the past couple months we have been meeting with Steve Maag who is very respectful and professional. We appreciate the confidentiality that Steve has for us as his clients. Thanks Kaufman Realty.
Thanks Marilyn.
Fantastic experience: Beth Hayes made our transaction painless and easy. She answered all questions and informed us of all the aspects of the sale. Thank you Beth for doing such a great job and doing all the work for us..Jackie McVicker
Fantastic experience: Working with Tony Mullet, Antony Kaufman and Dave Kaufman over many years has been a great pleasure. They have been very responsive to all of my questions, provide great advice and have gone above and beyond to make sure my purchases and sales with them have gone smooth and been successful even in difficult situations.
Fantastic experience: Love these guys very knowledgeable and professional,
Fantastic experience: One of the most customer-friendly auctioneers here in Cliff Sprang. I've purchased and consigned with Kaufman's and have never been disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Jake Schlabach was wonderful to work with! As first time home buyers, we had lots of questions and a limited budget. Jake was patient with us, kept us informed, answered all of our questions and was willing to show us lots of options in our price range before we found the right home. He made a process that initially seemed overwhelming very easy and doable!
Fantastic experience: Paula Sulzener provided me with excellent real estate service through Kaufman Realty. Whenever I found a home that I was interested in seeing, she always made herself available to show it. If I ever had a question about a listing she would pick up the phone and answer me at her earliest convenience and I felt as though she was answering me honestly every time. She provided me with a potential lender who approved me for buying my home very quickly. I had full confidence in both Paula and the lender that my best interest was at hand throughout the entire process and if/when I plan to sell my home and look for another, I will definitely be sure to use Kaufman Realty and specifically Paula Sulzener again.
Fantastic experience: Kaufman Realty worked hard to find the perfect house for our family. Melody especially was amazing to work with and stayed on top of all the details.
Fantastic experience: J.J. Detweiler Enterprises Inc and Acreage Investments have done business with Kaufman for a long time. They are professional and have some of the best in the business working for them. I particularly enjoy working with Jason Miller.
