    Bonnie gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    We had been looking for a home closer to family for several years. With the pandemic and the tight housing market it was almost impossible to find a home for older buyers like us, that hadn't purchased a home in forty years. We had heard great things about Becky and decided it was time to get a realtor to help. Becky was super patient, quick to answer all of our questions or find the answers. She sent us listings what were good fits for what we needed and was always ready to schedule home viewings for us. She was honest about what she thought was a good fit for us or not, as if she were advising her own parents. We sincerely do not think we could have gone through this process without her help. We recommend her highly!

    Becky was so great to work with while buying our first home! She answered every question we had quickly and made sure we understood everything ever step of the way! She was able to show us every house we wanted to look at the same day we showed interest in it! I would definitely recommend Becky to any one with any real estate need!

    Becky was very attentive to our needs and her experience was a great help to these out of town buyers. We did everything remotely and Becky was so helpful. She provided recommendations for attorneys, inspectors, appraisers, etc. She handled many of the details for us and would Facetime so we could feel involved. She was always quick to respond and provide options and insight when we needed to make decisions. I would work with Becky again and highly recommend her.

    Benjamin gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    I needed to move fast, and Becky was the solution for my fiancée and I. Becky came to the first meeting prepared with data for comparable houses, and was very professional and friendly from the first interaction to the closing on the property. Another major benefit was that I was able to leave the state as quickly as I needed to thanks to her experience and network that provided me with the peace of mind that the transaction was going to go smoothly. Overall we are very happy with how it all turned out, and would definitely recommend Becky to anyone in need of a realtor.

    Kevin gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    We entered into the whole "home sale" experience with no idea what would transpire, as neither my wife or I had ever sold property before. We were extremely pleased with the entire process, start to finish. Becky took the time to explain everything that would happen, thoroughly. Even things that we didn't understand, she took the extra time to make sure that we DID completely get it, and were comfortable with it. To the largest degree, we ourselves did very little to make this sale happen. Frankly, it was all Becky. She has the knowledge and the connections to make a sale happen, seamlessly and problem-free. While the house was on the market, we moved away to another state, which proved to be no impediment to the process. Becky was able to continue her tasks, periodically sending me necessary documents to sign as I had time. We certainly would recommend enlisting Becky's aid in selling a home, as we have every confidence in her.

    Becky was a huge help in getting us the property we wanted since we are not from the local area and are not familiar with the local market dynamics. She even helped us negotiated a credit in this hot market.

    We have purchased 5 homes in the last 12 years. Out of all that stress and fun Becky was the hands down best realtor. Bloomington Normal is very lucky to have her in this crazy market. Thank you so much Becky.

    Steve gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    We were moving from out of state, so we needed someone who knew the Bloomington market ... and someone who would literally be our representative in person. She guided us through the search process in a way that made things very easy for us. Then, when we found a couple of homes we wanted to view, she did video calls with us to walk through the homes. On those calls, it was clear that she was very aware that she needed to share details that we could never know through the video call--what the houses smelled like, whether the carpet was actually new/updated, all the things that are critical in a home search. She directly coordinated our connection with a mortgage lender, real estate lawyer, inspector, painter, and title company in Bloomington since we were out of state. She literally just made everything easier in the way she handled communication with us and these other parties. I honestly can't think of a single thing she could have done differently or better. If you're looking for a realtor who will look out for your best interests at every step, proactively communicate with you, and make things easy ... Becky Bauer is the realtor for you.

    We moved from Tennessee, and Becky was ready to show us houses within the first week we got to Illinois. She was friendly, helpful, and professional. We had to get some things done with the house, and she recommended the right company every time. So glad we went with Becky :)

    Becky made the process of moving 700 miles as painless as possible for us. She was working hard while we were out of state to make sure we had a home of our own. She was constantly in communication with us and keeping us up to date with any information. We needed the absolute best relator to help us navigate through this crazy market. We 100% believe that Becky was the perfect person for this job. We would recommend her to anyone is looking to buy or sell.

    She is a very pleasant, professional, and friendly person. As a first time home buyer, I was so confused and had many questions. She clarified everything in a simple and efficient way. Whenever we called or texted her she always attended our calls in a timely manner. She helped us so much throughout the entire process and stood with us until the closing day. Now she became a part of our family. I strongly recommend Becky to everyone, especially for first time home buyers.

    We were so lucky to have met Becky prior to moving. She gave us amazing tips on how to get our home ready to sell and helped us find our dream home in the perfect location. Through buying and selling she was so professional, knowledgeable, always answered our questions right away, and gave the best advice. I have no doubt that our home wouldn't have sold as quickly as it did without her. We completely trusted her with negotiating. If you're looking for a real estate group I highly recommend Coldwell Baker and ask for Becky. She's amazing!!!

She knows the local market and had a good marketing plan, so we were able to sell our house within a month. Enjoyed working with her. Her services and involvements are truly appreciated. I would recommend her to other buyers/sellers. Thanks.

    Becky helped us buy a new home and sell our old home in record speed. She is extremely knowledgeable about pricing, staging, and making slight adjustments to improve the look of your home and generate buyer interest. Becky is engaging, responsive, and puts her clients above all else. Best of all, Becky's advice, attention to detail, and marketing tactics got our house sold before it officially hit the market. Thank you, Becky!

    Chris gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    Becky was with us side by side throughout the entire listing and sales process. She provided a ton of valuable insights before we listed our house with her, but she was also extremely responsive to our input & ideas. When it was time to list we felt confident and ready. Throughout the 60 day timeframe prior to sale of the house, she provided ongoing input and data is and we adjusted our price and methods accordingly. The house sold fairly quickly. In spite of the COVID pandemic that limited 'normal' sales techniques like open houses. Becky fine tuned her marketing & sales tactics to maximize exposure with potential buyers and fellow realtors. Becky was always very responsive and she provided honest & valuable real time information. She is a consummate professional but also friendly, approachable, talented, and has great communication skills. I believe she has the agility to succeed for a wide range of customers regardless of age, income, and demographics. She has a strong knowledge of the market place in Bloomington-Normal. She seems to be a naturally positive, caring person but also a strong work ethic and 'get it done' attitude. She under promises and over delivers.

    We had a great experience working with Becky. When we first connected it was because we were thinking about sell our house but, we were wary because we tried before without success. We stayed in contact waiting for the right time. So, when she contacted us to tell us it was time we decided to take the risk. The best decision we made. Once we took that step, Becky did a great job recommending a few quick and easy upgrades to the house. With that, the pictures looks sooo nice. Once everything was ready Becky laid out the plan to us very clearly and concise, open house, advertising, etc. We received updates for the effectiveness of the ads and Becky was in constant communication with us. It is clear she was on top of things. Me and my wife are very happy and grateful.

    We first met Becky when we were looking at homes for sale and when it came time to sell our own home we knew we wanted to work with Becky!!!

As a first time selling a home, Becky guided us through from start to finish, she is patient, responsive, and made what could be a stressful change go calmly and smooth! Becky is extremely knowledgeable and worked hard! From staging/photos, to advertising, to open houses, to answering all of our questions and texts she was simply amazing to work with!!!

    As a local home inspector, I have worked with Becky many times over the past few years. During our inspection walk-through's, it was always obvious that her clients loved working with her. So when my wife and I decided to list our house for sale, we chose Becky. And now we can add our names to the list of clients that can't say enough great things about our experience! Becky was always available to us & always responded immediately to our needs, questions & concerns. The number of open houses she held was beyond our expectations, including an open house after we accepted a contingency offer (we ended selling to a different buyer than the initial contingency offer!), due to her hard work. Thanks Becky! We wouldn't think twice about hiring you again. Derek Spring

    Patience and expertise are the first two words I think of when talking about Becky Bauer. Real estate includes a certain level of intimacy and honesty between client and agent. Becky is honest, open and has a great eye for detail. She was always available for our myriad of questions. Say YES to buying and selling within Becky!

    Nick gave Becky 5 stars out of 5
    Becky was outstanding! We had our home on the market for 6 months prior to listing with Becky and it did not sell. Once we hired Becky she came to our house, staged our furniture, and took professional pictures. Becky spent over four hours at our house with a professional photographer to ensure the photos for the MLS were perfect. We received several compliments on the photos of our house. We had about 20 showings and our house sold it in 6 days (and the price was not lowered!). Becky really hustles for her clients. Becky answers her phone every time you call her and replies to texts within seconds. Becky got us top dollar for our house and negotiated a great deal on our next home. If you need to sell your home quickly for top dollar, Becky is your choice for a realtor. In a saturated realtor market Becky stands out above the rest! The Thacker Family

She was incredibly patient with us, super knowledgeable and just REAL. I am forever grateful for Becky and will recommend her to everyone I know!!

    We honestly accidentally were matched with Becky through Realitor App, but I couldn't be happier about it. We are a growing family that has been building up to a first home and Becky being a mother, she knew exactly what we needed! Was always their to answer her phone, a question, or a concern. It didn't matter, she was very fast to respond and resolve any issue! Would recommend to any future First Time Home Buyer! Thank you Becky for all your help!

    It was wonderful working with Becky. She made the process as smooth as possible and seemingly keeps you one or two steps ahead at all times. She even carries coloring books and crayons with her when kids start getting unruly! I just don't see how there could be a better realtor out there to work with and will definitely use her again when needed.
