TL;DR She sold my house without ever discussing the offer or terms with me…read more My experience with her as a seller was terrible. Our house was overpriced, so sat getting stale for 9 months. Selling the house was part of wrapping up a divorce, and Melissa had been explicitly instructed to run any offers, price changes, etc., by both my ex-husband and me more than once (all three of us meeting, in person). The price dropped and dropped and dropped, but it was so stale it didn't really matter. She presented an offer after the looong nine months to only my ex, who countered. I called her and again expressed that my signature was required to sell the house and she needed my approval, so please involve me in the sale of my house before calling a buyer's realtor. She and my ex accepted the next offer, again without contacting me. Had I been a jerk, I could have shown up to the closing and refused to sign, since I'd never agreed to a single term of the sale and had signed nothing accepting any part of the deal. I'd never deal with her as a buyer (in case the next person in the same seller position decides not to sign), or as a seller since she'd proved untrustworthy.

Nancy was recommended to me as a selling real estate agent about 10 years ago by a retiring…read morecolleague. I interviewed several others and asked detailed questions about strategies, including open houses, selling prices, and so on. She was the most honest and straightforward of the three. Now I am using her as a buying agent, and have peppered her with a barrage of questions and asked her to request that some no-cost cosmetic work be done to a property I'm considering to make it more appealing to my wife, when she sees it. I've also asked her a lot of questions about moving companies, auction houses, recommended lenders, and so forth. I trust her judgement on all these issues, and she'll say she doesn't know the answer to something when she doesn't. Nancy is honest, not pushy, and knows Springfield resources well.

Steven Cowles is an awesome, personable realtor who has a range of investment knowledge. Erica Brittin is highly communicative and detail oriented. We bought an investment property in Springfield, from out of state, with very little stress and zero issues. The long story: We have purchased 3 different homes with 3 different realtors. This purchase was an investment property and we live out of state. I've been impressed with the experience that my wife and I had with the Killebrew Team. Dan Fitzgerald is a standout professional. He pulled the classic "underpromise and overdeliver" moves. Being out of state and very new to the real estate investment game, I initially felt out of my depth. Dan cured all of that during our first phone conversation, with his patience, kindness, and depth of real estate and investment knowledge. He made me feel at ease and left me feeling confident. I expressed my goals and needs and he took them seriously and delivered! In the end, we made a purchase in early January and are certain that with Dan's help, we made the best decision for our goals. Dan works with a great team and it shows. We worked closely with Steven Cowles, who is a realtor with Killebrew. Erica Britton, is a realty associate took care of the majority of logistical paperwork and made certain that we knew what to expect every step of the way. Both were a huge help in the quick, and smooth process of making our property purchase. Clearly, I can't say enough good things about Dan and the Killebrew team!
