Negative experience: I am very unhappy with how I was treated during my interaction with Anna Steuer. I reached out to inquire about listing two land parcels I legally acquired at a county tax deed action. Because I live out of state and the properties were purchased at auction, she immediately dismissed me, treated me like a scammer, and refused to work with me, despite my offering proof of ownership. It has taken a lot of hard work and research to acquire these properties, and to be treated with such hostility and disrespect as an out-of-state property owner was completely unacceptable and deeply unprofessional. I would not recommend working with her!
Fantastic experience: Amazing company with incredible owners! Professional, kind, and knowledgeable.
Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Great set of people! Professional and Very helpful:) knowledgeable beyond belief:)
Thank you for your review!
Negative experience: 0/10 would not recommend.
Thank you for your feedback, and while we take all client feedback seriously, we feel it
important to clarify several inaccuracies in this review so that the public has a complete
understanding of the transaction.
This client chose to work with our team for both the purchase and subsequent re-sale of
their property, reflecting the level of trust shown with our experience and reputation.
There are several important details that provide extra context for this transaction and are
happy to provide additional documentation to support the details.
The property was listed on December 22, 2025. Despite it being the holidays, the property
had the first offer accepted prior to 30 days. That purchase fell due to a difficult inspection.
Although the seller felt she was entitled to the earnest money, the buyer wanted it released
because of this unacceptable inspection. The second offer rescinded it prior to the offer
being presented. The third offer closed the first week of March. We are proud of multiple
offers and a closed transaction in 90 days despite it being the holiday season.
There were in fact temporary coverage adjustments within the team due to scheduled
medical procedures, but continuous support was provided throughout. In fact, the
broker/owner met you in person immediately.
This sale involved multiple time-sensitive challenges, including required electrical repairs
that could have jeopardized closing.
Our team not only found a reputable electrical contractor but negotiated a deal with him
that was far below the “going rate.” Mike does not “promote” any contractor. He has a list of
contacts and relationships that have been built over decades. After doing the first round of
work, the electrician decided he and the seller were not a good “fit” and decided not to
proceed with any further work. Our team then had to find another electrician that was
willing to deal with the seller and but also match the original price. That level of
coordination and urgency is not typical, but it was necessary to protect the sale.
Despite these challenges, the property closed successfully, and the seller received more than
originally projected. That outcome required active problem-solving, a strong list of contacts,
negotiation, and persistence behind the scenes.
Real estate transactions can be highly charged and stressful, and are not always seamless,
particularly when unexpected issues arise. Our team worked diligently to navigate those
challenges and deliver results. In this case, the transaction was completed successfully with
a strong financial outcome.
We stand by both our level of service, professionalism, responsiveness and results that our
clients have grown to expect for decades. Thank you for your review and we wish you
nothing but the best in your future endeavors.
Fantastic experience: Nice people to work with.
Fantastic experience: Great company!
Fantastic experience: An amazing group of professionals who are great to work with. Experience matters and it shows that they hire nothing but the best.
Fantastic experience: Their team of agents is not only knowledgeable and responsive, but they genuinely care about delivering the best possible results for their clients. What really sets them apart is their attention to detail, strong market expertise, and commitment to going above and beyond. Every step of the process is handled with confidence and precision, and the results speak for themselves. If you’re looking for a brokerage with top-tier agents who consistently deliver outstanding results, this is the one. Highly recommend!
Positive experience: I called asking about a property and was not impressed with the agent the sent me to.
Hello, thank you for your review. To better our understanding, could you please identify the property address your inquired on? It is our policy to transfer you to the agent that has it listed, so they have the most current and up to date information on the property.
Negative experience: I showed up to an appointment at the time they set and no one was there doors closed and no answers when I called and texted extremely unprofessional
Negative experience: Jamie Garcia is one of their realtors and she is probably the worst realtor I have ever come across. She consistently talks bad about properties and tries to steer clients into more expensive home so that she can get larger commissions. The companies they use for inspectors are just as bad as she is. They put down stuff on inspections that are not correct and they do not k ow proper codes and regulations. Then she gets quotes for repairs from ever shadier companies. Seems like she is just trying to make fake work for friends. Kind of like a quid pro quo. So please stay away from her and find any other realtor in the area to work with.
Thank you for your review. Usually in the case of an anonymous review, it is difficult to determine if you were a client of ours. One that our agent represented. In this case, because you also left a review on the inspector. It was not difficult to determine that we in fact did NOT represent you. We represented the buyer.
Jamie has been an agent for over 10 years, and this would be the first complaint that she has received. Which is why we investigated it so closely.
We understand that real estate transactions can sometimes be highly stressful and emotionally charged. Especially in these situations. We have found, that with inspections, there are often a handful of items that can be extra concerning for buyers… flags on septic systems, roofs, and foundations can be especially concerning. As I am certain that you would understand, just because something is “code” does not mean that it is working to the level expected. For example: an outlet may be “to code” but when something plugs in, it trips or does not work at all. Often the seller may not even be aware of this. However, with your bigger ticket items, those buyers who may be willing to overlook smaller items may not have the money put away for these expensive “potential” future problems.
In every real estate transaction, the ultimate goal is to get the property to the closing table, but sometimes this just does not happen. But at the end of the day, it was Jamie’s sole responsibility to represent her client (the buyers) best interests. And I am sorry that upset you.
With all of this said, given that you were not her client, we are surprised that you would ANONOMOUSLY attempt to destroy someone’s business and the reputation that they have worked extremely hard for a decade to build. We are sorry for your experience and wish you luck in the future.
Negative experience: I created an offer, they intern sent a counter offer. All parties signed & accepted. Yet this realtor created multiple offers and accepted a higher offer. So beware. I have the signed contract if I get negative Nancy comments
Hi Jeff. Upon investigation on your review above, we found that your agent was associated with McCormick Real Estate Company and your agent did not inform you correctly. You did not respond to the counter offer until after we had informed your agent of us being in a multiple offer situation. Our attorney communicated through correspondence with you agent. We would be happy to send you our attorneys letter to your agent. If you could so kindly, remove your review. Thank you.
Negative experience: Thus far, all I can say is it has been the worst experience and this ride isn't over yet. *Actual review to come.
Negative experience: Do NOT touch them with a 10 foot pole. They’re notorious in NW Indiana as being shady. One of their agents represented buyers for a home I was selling. They switched their financing on an accepted, signed offer WITHOUT TELLING ME FOR WEEKS. This caused a different appraisal checklist, without me knowing. All I got was an “oops! It wasn’t a big deal though, right?” IT’S A BIG DEAL. Buyers were working on a void contract, completely unbeknownst to them and me. I lost a ton of money when I could have re-listed during the good season. These people are working with YOUR hard-earned savings. Do NOT trust them with that. They’re negligent and my attorney had to get involved.
Negative experience: Anna Kenney was our realtor. This was our first time buying a home. It was an awful experience. She was not qualified to sell the home we were buying. There were other items that we wanted to make an offer on along with the home, but Anna told us things didn’t work that way. She messed things up for us. She told us to make our offer high but didn’t want to try and make a deal on the house and other items. Her concern was with her commission and not for us. We wanted another item along with the house and Anna told us that we can’t do that. We then find out that the other realtor on her team was the one to get us the item because Anna didn’t know how. There was also an incident with an appliance replacement in the home that should’ve been handled by the agent, but instead had to go through the broker of the firm. We couldn’t trust her to do the right thing. She only cared about making money on this deal. She also told us that she fired a client and was very proud of it. I would not recommend her. This was our first time buying a home and Anna ruined it. She is not experienced enough.
Fantastic experience: Steven Wilson was an absolute joy! He listens to what you are looking for and has great communication. He was always available to answer our questions and explained things to us step by step during the home buying process. Would recommend him to everyone!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful office space. The agents really work for their clients.
Fantastic experience: If you are listing a home or looking to buy Reality Executives Premier is the ONLY way to go. The owner Mike Tezak and his team give it 110%!!!!
Negative experience: Agent doesn't call you back
Sorry to hear this. Can you be more specific. We have over 100 agents and would like to address so we can eliminate future reviews
Fantastic experience: Jessica is a big help, being patient with us was a huge plus she added. Ask for Jessica
Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding in every way. Karl kept us informed, explained everything, moved fast, stayed personally involved, and got us a great price quickly. I HIGHLY recommend Karl to anybody buying or selling a home.
Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Realty Executives Premier is by far the best real estate company in NWI. I have worked with a few brokers from there.

Very attentive to your needs! I will not hesitate to use them when I am ready to.sell and purchase my next home!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough great things! My fiancé and I had an amazing experience working with Realty Executives Premier. They made the sale and purchase of our new home feel so effortless. I could have not been more satisfied with the team we had within this company. They gave us more than what we could’ve ever imagined!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful company to be with. Most professional agents to be a part of. Mike and Pam are the best and are always available when needed.
Fantastic experience: I'm commenting on the 1 star reviews that were posted today. This client refuses to understand that there is a process required prior to earnest money being released. Both parties in the transaction must sign a Mutual Release and they must agree to which party will receive the earnest money. If the parties do not agree, then there is a legal procedure that must be followed. Mike Tezak cannot overrule the law and release earnest money to either party. Mike runs a great office and represents all parties equally. This client needs to get the facts straight and making threats and attacking the reputation of Mike Tezak and Realty Executives Premier is uncalled for.
Fantastic experience: An excellent business with top level professionals. I came here and was able to purchase my first home. There is no pressure to buy and I was able to move forward at my own pace. The agents there were informative and efficient. Call or visit here for your real estate business.
Fantastic experience: A company with integrity, knowledge, and power behind their brand.
Fantastic experience: Extremely efficient and convenient. Most member I spoke to were available day and night. Very straight forward in their responses and they aren't afraid to work with you to achieve a goal! I really appreciate the enthusiasm and the level of eficiency of this group!
Thank you for your review.
Fantastic experience: When speaking to the company it is clear that they are focused on community and family growth. Specifically, Caylie is a phenomenal person and was so determined to find me and my fiance something great to start a family in. For this I am extremely appreciative.
Thank you for your review.
Fantastic experience: Great company to work for! Pam and Mike have been very helpful and patient with me as a new agent when I first signed. I owe a lot of my success to them and the knowledgeable staff they have working for them. Thank you!
