In mid-2015 we relocated from Denver to the Boise, Idaho area. The move had two purposes. The first was to take advantage of the "Sell High - Buy Low" conditions in the Denver and Boise Real Estate markets. That would enable us to live in a paid off patio home near Boise. The second reason was to be closer to family living on the wet West Coast without having to put up with rain.
We were reviewing feedback for several agents who regarded themselves as "Local Experts". After careful analysis and interviews, I would then pick our listing Agent. However, on a hunch, I decided to check with our Financial Planner first. Our CFP contacted their firms Real Estate resource. The result was that Jerry Readle and Lois Reimer (at jerryandloishomes.com) came highly recommended. They are now members of the ReMax/ Northwest group located on North Pecos and 120th. (Near CB & Potts).
Jerry and Lois immediately conducted a market analysis, provided comparison listings and gave us input regarding staging our home. I was a very hands on "pro-active" seller as I have always worked as a team lead or team member. Hence, our styles matched perfectly. We worked together on several facets of the marketing and staging plan.
We had a rather unusual situation as we were originally looking for a resale home in Metro Boise. However, we decided to build in Nampa. This resulted in numerous delays and false starts. Lois and Jerry provided sound advice as we were going through this period.
We finally listed in late May. The home sold within three days. The price was bid up and the sale proceeded to a normal and problem free close.
I had absolute confidence in Jerry & Lois. Their work to insure a problem free real estate transaction helped in mitigating the stress of the relocation. Our feelings were that the overall quality of service, provided by Lois and Jerry, was excellent. At no time did I try to re-negotiate the six percent commission. Jerry and Lois had easily earned their profit from this sale through all their hard work.
We highly recommend Jerry Readle and Lois Reimer as your future Listing or Buyer's Agents. It would be difficult to find anyone else more knowledgeable or qualified. read more
