Fantastic experience: We had such a wonderful experience working with Lynn! From start to finish, she was incredibly helpful, patient, responsive, and knowledgeable. She made what could have been a stressful process feel so light and easy. She was always there to answer our many questions and guide us through each step. We truly felt like she had our best interests in mind and went above and beyond to help us find the right home for our family. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Lynn!

Fantastic experience: My wife AJ and I had a fantastic experience working with Lynn Harder to sell our home in Glynn Village. From our initial conversations through closing, Lynn was knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and incredibly patient. Selling a home can be an emotional process, and ours came with its share of challenges. We listed during the winter market, navigated extreme weather, adjusted pricing strategy, managed showings and buyer feedback, and ultimately worked through inspections, appraisal, and closing. Throughout every step, Lynn provided thoughtful guidance and clear communication. What stood out most was that Lynn never pressured us. She presented market data, explained our options, and helped us make informed decisions while always respecting our goals. Her marketing efforts, social media exposure, and attention to detail gave us confidence that our home was getting maximum visibility. When an offer finally came together, Lynn’s experience and steady approach helped us navigate negotiations and keep the transaction moving smoothly all the way to closing. We are grateful for her professionalism, expertise, and genuine care throughout the process. I would absolutely recommend Lynn to anyone buying or selling a home in the Des Moines area. She was a trusted advisor, advocate, and partner from start to finish. Thank you, Lynn, for helping us successfully close this chapter and begin the next one.

Fantastic experience: Lynn was the best.We bought our first house and had no direction on what to do or expect.She was very helpful through the entire process even after we closed and moved in to deal with warranty issues with the builder which showed how dedicated she was that we were satisfied and were taken care of.She always answered the phone and text us if we had questions and I mean well into the night and weekends holidays everything.We would recommend her to anyone that is looking for houses.We will be using her next time we need a new house.

Fantastic experience: Lynn was awesome. She went out of her way to help me and answer all my questions. I would highly recommend using her.

Isaac Droessler Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Lynn was the definition of above and beyond and we couldn't have been happier with the process. She was always quick to respond, extremely helpful, and we never felt like we were a burden to her even after dozens of tours. She helped us figure out the best area in DSM for us, navigate emotional/irrational sellers, balance multiple homes coming available, and has a contact/connection for every step of the process. She never influenced our decision, but gave advice when we asked, and took the time to understand what we truly wanted. When she was out of town, there was no lost time by getting members of her team to cover and show us homes. The closing paperwork process was as smooth as possible, and we love the home we ended up with. We will absolutely be recommending her to any family and friends that are looking to buy or sell.

Fantastic experience: Lynn was simply amazing to work with (again)! We worked with Lynn 2 years ago when we sold our home. We were renting in Waukee and over the summer we decided to purchase a home. Lynn was so patient with me sending listing after listing and always greeted us with a smile, and of course, remained supportive and enthusiastic throughout the process. Lynn also sent weekly reminders and we appreciated being kept in the loop (it also kept us on track). The whole process went so smooth! Shout out to Hubbell Homes and Matt Sailer (Bank Iowa) for being amazing to work with! We love our new home and neighborhood. Thank you Lynn, you are a Rock Star! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Lynn Harder!! She dropped everything to help us buy our first home all within 10 hours of seeing the listing. Her strategy helped us beat out another offer, and she is even helping us after closing to deal with a plumbing issue that has come up. She patiently explained the whole process and answered all our first time home buyer questions, always with a smile on her face!!

Lisa Witter Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Lynn was exceptionally helpful during our long home search and even longer time to close on our home. We wanted a very specific land/home combo. Once we found it, there were a few thousand hurdles, emails, conversations to deal with in the 3 month closing period. Lynn was very available to help on all weekdays and weekends. She has helpful advice and was a great counselor to talk things through when things got troublesome. Highly recommend Lynn!

Zarici Nezimci Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Lynn and her team are the example of what excellent customer service and dedicated professionalism should look like. Throughout the entire process, she ensured we clearly understood every step and remained the voice of reason through difficult and stressful decisions. Even over long distance, multiple time zones away, Lynn answered our questions and represented our interests so that we closed on a wonderful home that perfectly meets our needs.

Antoinette Garwood Published on Google

Negative experience: We purchased a home and Lynn was the selling agent. I am beyond disappointed with the things truly wrong in this home. On the contract it states all appliances are in working order but oven won’t heat up, fridge wouldn’t stay cold. Now shower in master leaks water like insane amount. Cabinet wall that was to be fixed was not fixed, wrong cabinet doors were supposed to be replaced with correct and handles attached that was not done either. Shower heads that were to be replaced. We’re not replaced. This list can go on and on but the real issue here is the realtor not doing her due diligence. We tried to back out of purchasing this home at final walk through but would have financial potential hurt our family and left is without a home.

Chontel Berthelsen Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Lynn was both professional and personable. Her attention to detail was impeccable and her knowledge of the current market impressive. She was both sensitive to our specific situation and sensible about strategy when it came to listing. Lynn was very prompt with appointments and paperwork and very clear with her communication regarding all matters. Lynn's sense of humor and positive outlook guided us through a very sensitive sale and we highly recommend her confident yet compassionate approach!

Joelle Kleihauer Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I asked Lynn to help me through a very emotional trying time for our family. We were cleaning out and needing to sell my mother's condo after she was admitted to a LTC institution. I was also battling some very serious health challenges at the time. Lynn not only got the job done but was so kind, caring and compassionate with me and my family. She is such an amazing human! Thank you Lynn Harder! You are the BEST!!!
