Experiencia fantástica: Thomas demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise in handling a challenging property sale that had been severely damaged by vandalism. Despite the difficult circumstances, his patience and unwavering commitment to ensuring the property was sold at the right price stood out. Thomas meticulously managed the process from start to finish. He helped gather quotes for repairs, and worked closely with the county to provide me with a comprehensive recap of what needed to be done. Throughout the process, we received several lowball offers, and there were moments when I questioned the true value of the property. Thomas remained positive, advocating for a higher offer that ultimately proved to be much more beneficial. His attention to detail, deep knowledge of the market, and exceptional communication skills made him a pleasure to work with. Additionally, his kindness and professionalism made a stressful situation much more manageable. I highly recommend Thomas for anyone in need of a reliable and skilled realtor. A special shoutout to his coordinator, Sarah, whose support was invaluable throughout this process!

Experiencia fantástica: I first met Thomas in 2017 when I was looking to buy my first house. Thomas was diligent in the pursuit of the right fit and was always a pleasure to hang out with whilst looking for a home. Fast forward to 2023 and Thomas helped us find our second home and we are very happy with our choices in both homes and assistance along the way. I could not recommend Thomas more to anyone looking to find a house in the Des Moines metro and surrounding areas. I can say that Thomas has not only been a fantastic asset in the real estate market, but also as a great friend to both myself and my wife. He has left such a lasting impact that we also convinced him to be our officiant in our wedding! He truly wants the best for everyone he meets and will do whatever it takes to make a positive impact on others’ lives.

Experiencia fantástica: Thomas rules ! I was crazy scared when buying my first house because there's so much I didn't know about when it comes to owning/ buying a house. Was nice to feel safe during the process. Also he got us on national TV (house hunters) which was a lot of fun!

Experiencia fantástica: Thomas is a joy to work with - and ever so patient. We worked with Thomas for over a year trying to relocate from OK back to IA. He worked with us every step of the way, spending countless hours looking at homes with us on multiple weekends, conducting numerous virtual tours for us when we couldn't be there in person, learning what we liked and disliked really quickly, and feeding us potential homes to check out on our next trip up (or virtually!). Thomas never got impatient or pushy with us, and when the time came for us to decide that after all this time, we just couldn't make it work - he was the most understanding person about it all. He didn't make us feel bad about the decision that was right for our family - and in fact, was positive about working with us in the future. As he said, he isn't giving up on us yet. Thomas is wonderful and if you're looking for a realtor, don't even think about anyone else - he's simply the best!

Experiencia fantástica: As first-time home buyers we worked with Thomas, and we are so grateful we picked him. We had numerous questions about the process (sometimes the same questions as before, because I forgot the answer) and Thomas was patient and gracious through it all. We really felt like Thomas took our thoughts and goals seriously, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guy to walk with us through our first buying process. Thank you, Thomas!

Experiencia fantástica: Thomas was such a big help with finding the right property for us! He is always eager to help, kept us in mind as new properties came up, and was willing to show us any of the properties we were interested in. Would definitely use him again for future real estate needs!!

Experiencia fantástica: Thomas helped us immensely in purchasing our first home back in 2019. While one would think that it would be easier the second time around, it was not! Fear not, Thomas was there every step of the way for our second purchase including sale of our home earlier this year, and could not have made it any easier! He was just as thorough and easy to work with this time around. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner, and more importantly he showed up with a plan to get our house sold which he more than executed on. The only problem is that Thomas helped us find our forever home, so we may not be able to work with him again if all goes well! :-) Regardless, I would recommend him to anyone who is in any stage of their homebuying or selling journey!

Experiencia fantástica: Thomas is a joy to work with. He was not just in for his commission from the sale but was determined to help me find the property that was right for me.

Experiencia fantástica: By the end of our house buying adventure Thomas felt more like a friend who 100% has your back than someone who's just conducting business.
