There are a lot of real estate agents in Wisconsin.

Both buying and eventually selling them as we divested of them to retire. In 2024, we were down to our last duplex and were selling it to a good friend. We needed to find a 3 bedroom ranch, no basement, no stairs, a 2 car garage. It was sellers market. We were having no luck. Constantly being out bid or finding the location popping up on line was already sold. We saw a new listing just inside St. Francis by a realtor named Kristel Sikora. She was with Shorewest Realty, Inc. out of New Berlin. She had just gotten the listing and we went together to view it for the first time. It was awful and she recommended we talk about our needs. She listened, and began searching for what we wanted. We viewed a myraid of homes with what we were looking for and in our price range the entire month of June. We continued being out bid in all opportunities. She suggested a different area we hadn't considered and immediately scored a sale in our price range with everything we wanted and closed mid July. Kristel Sikora has been a top producer with ten years experience. She listens, she acts on the information, and she sells. She's head and shoulders above all the rest. She'll be the only agent we'll ever use going forward. Happily retired homeowners: Stephen & Diane Jones"

Jay Schmidt and his team are the best. If you are looking to buy or sell your home, then you need…read moreto call the Jay Schmidt Group. We recently moved back to the Milwaukee area. We were targeting Whitefish Bay or Wauwatosa for our next home. We reached out to Jay, and he immediately set us searching for homes that met our criteria. We have a crazy schedule with managing a new job, moving a long distance, and having 2 kids under 6 at home. Jay and his team always worked around our schedule. They were responsive via email, text and phone calls at all hours. The market is really hot, and they were able to get us into newly posted homes quickly, and we were able to compete on every home we were interested in. They're a highly experienced team, and you NEED that support in this hot market. Everything we needed was written and submitted immediately. There were never any delays. Within a few weeks we found and purchased our dream home. We could not be happier. We will only use Jay Schmidt and team for any future real estate needs.

This was a big deal because I used this group remotely from out of state to sell my property in Wauwatosa.

The group treats you with respect and I am very lucky to have been able to use them to sell this property. Definitely recommend!

I really wish that I could recommend Ty more, but I just can't. Ty will treat you like his own…read morefamily member and is the kind of real estate agent that you want in your corner. Please, look no further and go with Ty to help buy or sell your next home. Ty is genuine, authentic, honest, reliable, professional and most importantly punctual. Ty and his team are the quickest in the business. We were in a tight situation timing wise and Ty was able to help us get a competitive offer out within just a couple of hours of us seeing the home! Ty and his team were extremely thorough throughout the entire process and communication was key. To top it off, Ty was readily available at all hours of the day to respond to my follow up questions that I had. Ty was even kind enough to send us THREE gifts after the closing. The seller was very stingy and would not budge an inch when it came to concessions and so Ty was kind enough to purchase us a one year home warranty for peace of mind! Ty even went out of his way and sent our family a gift card for a food delivery company since we were coming in from out of town. To top it all off, Ty gifted us a beautiful basket at the closing table with local coffee and wine. It's safe to say that Ty went above and beyond the job requirements and I know he would do the same for you too. One major added bonus that sets Ty apart from every other realtor is the fact that he also offers property management services! Ty really is a one stop shop for all of your real estate needs. We do not plan to move into the home until next year and Ty was able to find us a renter in less than 3 weeks to fill our home! He even gave us a discount on his property management services since it's a short term deal. Thank you again for all that you did for our family Ty!

Don't be fooled by these planted, spotless reviews by his buddies…read more Everyone knows it takes years of skill and experience to build a strong REAL clientele of people who aren't your friends to actually EARN 5-star, slam-dunk reviews across the board. You'll see when you meet him. Ty Ash is incompetent, immature, unprofessional real estate technician. He is in it for himself, doesn't care about you as a client, and will do anything to put you in a terrible situation for a money grab. He will schmooze you til the end, and you won't even realize it because that's how slimy and shady he is. Trust me (an unbiased client who was looking for a new home and got absolutely ROBBED), or feel free to trust his boy club buddies (majority of whom work or have worked with him). His reviews are a facade as weak as his actual real estate skills. Literally, go to anyone else. Give your commission to someone knowledgeable and trustworthy. Someone who will do the work and who's earned and deserves it. Someone who will find you something appropriate within your price range, provide actual guidance and support, go to bat for you, and has negotiation skills. Not a young amateur who will not spend an extra minute on you and will screw you over with terrible advice to make a couple more bucks for his and his girlfriend's pocket. Or, you can just believe all these fake glowing reviews - that's exactly what he wants :) Just don't say I didn't warn you.

Everything went smooth because of his hours of work behind the scenes. He absorbed all the stress so we had the best first time home buying experience. I know he was working with other people, but it felt like we were his only client. He was responsive, gave great advice, saw potential problems, took us to look at houses as soon as we asked, let us look at all the ones on our list, understood the market so we knew how to play, negotiated for things we needed...the list could go on for a while. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about his job! He protected us thoroughly with crucial paperwork that he obtained only because he goes above and beyond. James is not just a "realtor" he is a Master of his craft. When you choose James you don't even understand everything that comes with, which is why I'm telling you, you better choose James.

He is also very responsive and diligent - we were able to see homes within 48hrs of listing which is crucial during this difficult market with low inventory and high demand. Could not have had a better experience. Also, after I purchased the home I needed some remodeling and James was so helpful and provided contractors, painters, flooring experts, landscapers, etc. His people were excellent, reasonably priced, and took great care of me. It felt like living in New York "oh, yeah, I know a guy." And then you call and say James sent you and the people go, "oh, from James, of course, we'll take great care of you, James is such a good guy. We love working with his clients." Would highly recommend to all family and friends.
