    Alex is someone who genuinely cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to deliver results. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions, but Alex was always willing to help out and got back to us right away with the answers we needed. Every time we wanted to tour a house he got it set up immediately, and was also very honest about all the positives and negatives of each property. We really appreciated that he didn’t sugarcoat things and was very vocal about any damage/needed repairs that he spotted during each tour. He fought to get us the best deal when we made an offer to a seller, and we truly felt that he had our best interests at heart. Even after we closed on a property and started to move in, he continued to reach out and even sent over one of his technicians to look at our garage door when the seller wouldn’t give us the remote opener! He really does go above and beyond and I can’t recommend him enough!

    Trevor was outstanding! We needed to find land and we were on a deadlne. He worked hard and would not stop until he located what we needed. He is professional and so much fun to work with. Please call him.

    I had such a great experience working with Cameron! We’ve been on this journey for over 6 months, and throughout the whole process he was always so easy to talk to and quick to respond. No matter what questions or concerns came up, he was patient and made sure I fully understood everything. What stood out the most was how much he genuinely cared about my best interests. I never felt rushed or pressured—he really took the time to listen and make sure I was comfortable with every step. Closing on my house was a huge milestone, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without his help. If you’re looking for someone who’s friendly, trustworthy, and truly has your back, I highly recommend working with Cameron!

    Trevor was absolutely wonderful to work with! He is very friendly, caring, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I truly felt he was devoted to the sale of the condo and always had my best interest in mind. His professionalism, communication, and personal touch really made a big difference. I would highly recommend Trevor to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in and or around the Lincoln area.

    Jordan did a great job. She kept up up-to-date in the process. And at the end when the appraisal came in low she was able to work with the appraiser, bank and seller to get the sell to close on time. Definitely recommend her.
