Buyer Rating:
I had dealt with other brokers in the Iowa City community previously, and while not unhappy with them, I felt I wanted to work with someone who understood and respected my needs more than my previous broker experiences. I searched for that, and I found that in Holly Bodin.
Holly expertly negotiated competing bids for my home; I felt completely confident in her advice and handling of the process. And again, having moved quite a bit in my life, I was surprised and thrilled with the level of care and support I got from Holly. I had done a lot of the work on my own in previous moving experiences, but Holly had a great cache of inspectors, cleaners, repair teams, lenders and home insurance options ready to recommend and help coordinate for me. All of the requests of my buyer were met easily with Holly's resources in this area. And the inspection, and subsequent dealings on my new home purchase went off so smoothly. Holly worked seamlessly with my lender, and even took care of the closing on the house I was selling! I didn't have to go to that--first time ever for me!
It feels over the top to rate anyone as Excellent in every area, but I really feel that way about my whole experience with Holly. I'll say it again--I've bought and sold homes many times before (university lifestyle!), and this was my most pleasant and least amount of stress experience ever. Holly Bodin was on top of all of the details, and also made me feel supported and listened to: perfect combination of no-nonsense and heart!
