What are Desiree's Clients Saying About Her? "Desiree handled the sale of my Father's house when I placed him in a nursing home. My Father was not able to deal with the stress and challenges of the house sale, so I took over the process and worked directly with Desiree. I should add that we had two other challenges in the mix: A) I live out of town (Kansas) and B) I am deaf and do not use the phone. Despite these circumstances, the home-selling process with Desiree was absolutely flawless. She was flexible with the minimal communication options and maintained high responsiveness despite it. She worked well with my POA status and was very protective of our property, knowing I was not in the immediate vicinity. We sold the house at excellent value, despite the economy challenges. I attribute this to her aggressive but dignified sales approach, savvy advice and ability to be aware of how competitive sales in the area were going. We had less than a week from contract agreement to the closing and Desiree stepped in to assist with emptying the house on time as well. I found her to be sincere, honest and dedicated. I would definitely use her again -- and again -- and again." Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity -Karen Vogan "When my husband and I were looking to purchase a house with horse property last year, Desiree was serving as the realtor for the seller and helped us (as the buyers) tremendously. Having had horse experience herself, she was knowledge about and sensitive to our needs. Desiree extends herself in such thorough and thoughtful ways to her clients...and has gone out of her way to stay in touch with us since the transaction a year ago. Working with Desiree was the best experience we've ever had with a realtor, and we enthusiastically recommend her services to others." Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, High Integrity -Sherry Simon-Heldt Tim Heldt Client Testimonials Continued "During our more than 50 years of married life we have lived in 18 different homes, most of which we bought sold with the help of Realtors. Desiree guided us much, much better than any previous realtors. She is an exceptionally fine Realtor." Alfred Ernie F "Desiree is one of those Realtors who do not come your way on a regular basis. I have been working with many different Realtors, buying selling houses over the years. Desiree is in a small, exclusive class of proactive professionals who go the extra mile for their clients, whenever they see the opportunity. As a result, Desiree has become not only a trusted business acquaintance, but also a dear friend. Good Realtors are hard to find. I recommend Desiree to anyone who is in the market."
