Skogman Realty

Experiencia fantástica: We've had good experiences, twice now using Skogman. Our initial Realtor has since retired, and we were very happy with our current Realtor, Lena Gilbert. She did a great job. Was very much on top of things through the whole process of purchasing a condo, then selling our home. I'd highly recommend using Skogman and working with Lena!

Experiencia fantástica: Jane Glantz was exceptional, went above and beyond to sell our house !! After having a not so good experience with another realtor(house stayed on market for almost 6months with a few showings)and moving out of Iowa- being unable to be around was quite stressful for us, we got Jane on board. She came highly recommended, she loved the property, promised us that she will do her best and she did indeed.. Our house sold within 2 months of having her, the number of showings increased dramatically and we’re glad our beautiful home found new owners. We highly recommend Jane and Skogman !

Experiencia fantástica: Alexandra Braaksma was the agent we worked with and she was great. Made sure we got the best price in the home we sold, helped every stage of the way even when we were out of state. Would absolutely recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: I don't know much about this company in general but I can say that I was truly impressed with our realtor Kat... She truly did an outstanding job and if I ever need their services in the future I would definitely go to her again.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Skogman Realty. Our realtor, Spencer Beebe, was very professional, worked hard and made time to show us several options. Had a great experience with Skogman.

Experiencia fantástica: Mindy was not only professional and informed, but always felt like she cared about us. She always answered calls and texts in a very timely manner. Very knowledgeable and hard working. She did a great job helping us sell and buy our homes. Anytime anyone needs a realtor I will ALWAYS give them Mindy's name.

Experiencia fantástica: Becca was great to work with! She got our house on the market and helped us navigate the purchase of our new home. She was very dedicated to us as clients and made our home buying experience go as smoothly as she possibly was able too.

Experiencia fantástica: Gunther did an outstanding job for us and highly recommend him.

Experiencia negativa: I thought our agent was unaccommodating, lacked a personal interest and was deceptive in practice.

Experiencia fantástica: Jill and Jacey were very thorough, helpful and professional in buying our new home and also selling our old house. We highly recommend these two ladies!

Experiencia fantástica: Laura is the best. She had patience to look at all the places I wanted to see. She made moving a lot easier than expected! Thank you❤️

Experiencia negativa: Renae Forsyth-Christy was absolutely terrible. Had no respect for people’s personal hours she would message at all hours of the night. She would constantly ask questions when she was already given the answers. Had to sell my house as part of my divorce and I almost went to jail cause the court thought I didn’t sign the papers to have the house listed, when Renae had lost the papers I had already signed and forgot about them. Worst realtor I have ever had and I will never work with Skogman just because of Renae Forsyth-Christy.

Experiencia fantástica: Nick was on top of things as per usual. Handled all strange situations that seem to come up when buying/selling home. Great guidance on handling pricing and counter offers. Thanks for your help Nick and Skogman Realty.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent experience selling my house. I was surprised at how easy Bre Horstman made the process. It sold quicker then I had imagined. Things seemed like they were moving soo fast. I had alot of questions and what ifs. Bre always had answers and never seemed bothered with my over abundance of questions. Skogman Realty was the right choice for selling my home. Agent Bre Horstman is a Rockstar!

Experiencia fantástica: Amanda Sutton and Heather Morris with Skogman were great to work with! Amanda was our go to person and was great with communication and was able to answer any questions we had. I highly recommend using Amanda and Heather for you sale/purchase.

Experiencia fantástica: We were very pleased with the service we received from Skogmans. Our realtor, Wendy Votroubek, was wonderful. She really honed in our needs and requests which saved us a lot of time, since we were moving from Texas. We couldn't have asked for a more professional and knowledgeable realtor. Wendy went above and beyond to ensure we found the perfect house. Skogmans is a full service company that offers insurance and recommends mortgage companies that are reliable and easy to work with. Wendy hooked us up with Brad Maras, at Green State Mortgage, which made the process go smooth and quick. We were also able to get the house professionally and thoroughly inspected in a quick time frame by Jay Heckart at National Property Inspection. Jay was very professional and did a very in-depth Inspection. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with all the services and would like to thank everyone that helped make this as stressless as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an excellent experience working with The Efting Team to sell a small investment property. I was impressed with the timely communication, great understanding of our goals, and expert advice throughout the whole process. I was very happy with the final outcome and felt I was in great hands throughout the entire process. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Laura did a great job helping us find our forever home. She was very patient and helpful guiding us thru the process.

Experiencia fantástica: Putting a house on the market while you're 2,000 miles away is a stressful experience, but we were in good hands with our agent Michelle Lochner. She kept in touch, had almost weekly open houses until it went sale pending--and went above and beyond keeping an eye on the place--watering the flowers in the window box, and delivering the bad news that the tree and the front yard had fallen in the big thunderstorm. The house was priced right thanks to her guidance and the closing went smoothly. t Thank you Michelle and Skogman Realty.

Experiencia fantástica: Our agent was communicative and listened well. For us, coming from a different state, figuring out what we needed and wanted in Iowa was a process. She hung in there with us, providing information, meetings, listings by email and texting answers as well.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with the Vestweber Team at Skogman Realty.

Experiencia fantástica: Gunther Sandersfeld was great every step of the way. He kept me informed throughout the process and his banking recommendations made my mortgage possible. I couldn’t be more grateful!

Experiencia fantástica: My condo sold in 4 days at full price and I could not be happier! Michelle Lochner was my realtor and had sold another condo with her as my agent as well.

Experiencia fantástica: We were 110% pleased with the support we got from Skogman Realty, especially from our agent, Lesley Vancura. Lesley kept in touch with reminders about upcoming deadlines, tasks, new listings, and strategies so that we were able to get to closing on our new home in a very short amount of time, with the least amount of stress possible, and always in a calm, professional manner. Lesley and the team at Skogman are the only ones we will consider for another move in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: My wife and I listed our last investment property and we had it pending in a few days. I have known Mary for about 25 years, and she continues to do a great job out there. Skogman is a great company and people to work with on real estate. Thank you Skogman and Mary Chmelicek!!

Experiencia fantástica: We worked with Kim Wise as our agent, not only was she professional but she was very personable and friendly! She was extremely knowledgeable and did everything in her power to help us sell our house as fast as possible. I highly recommend Kim and the team at Skogman for your realty needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Courtney Blair did an amazing job helping us list and sell our townhouse in Coralville, IA! She went above and beyond, as we live out of state, making contact with plumbers and electricians in the area to get things checked out from our inspection! She was very professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: Our realtor Bob Vander Veen has been great to work with. He's been attentive to our needs, very professional and helped us in every step of the process. My wife and I are very happy in our new place

Experiencia fantástica: My Skogman Realtor was Will Brandt and I couldn't have been happier with the service he provided. He was very proactive about keeping me informed about process and was always very responsive. My home sold on the first day it was listed, and though that sale didn't go through -- it was on the buyer and her Realtor, not on Will. He re-listed it immediately and again, it sold on the first day. I was happy with the entire process and would 100% recommend Will.

Experiencia fantástica: Kelly Bemus was my realtor and she was fantastic! She was very thorough and walked me through every step of the process. She put together an amazing ad and sold my house in less than 48 hours. I highly recommend Kelly Bemus for your next realtor!!

Experiencia fantástica: Laura Merchan was our realtor and she really went above and beyond for us. We were moving to Iowa from out of state and she was more than happy to accommodate us! She didn't mind going to multiple houses in one day and was very quick when we wanted to put a bid in. She was very helpful, honest, quick, and humorous throughout the entire process. Highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: Cory Barnard did a great job as always and Skogman handled everything behind the scenes to make our latest project sell smoothly. Would definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I was very pleased working with Marian Flink on the sale of my sisters home in Lisbon, IA. True professional in every aspect of the sale. I would recommend her to anyone either selling or buying a home.

Experiencia fantástica: Gunther has been wonderful assisting me with selling a house and finding that next house for me. He makes sure that my best interests come first. Highly recommend him as a realtor.

Experiencia fantástica: Kerrie was awesome! She sold our house quickly and took care of all the details to make it as easy as possible!

Experiencia fantástica: Lana listened to our needs and directed us on best decisions for our needs and wants. She was professional and someone I will use again if the situation ever arises. Great Job Lana

Experiencia fantástica: The purchase and closing of my home was smooth, Tim Nash had sent me links to many homes before I moved from Idaho. This gave a chance to figure out more of what I wanted. The house showed well, as the sellers were master decorators. The seller's agent was also with Skogman Realty. I am making a few cosmetic changes, but it is a good solid home. Skogman Realty made buying this home a snap. Thanks Tim!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience dealing with this company and the agent Dee Downey Pata. She was able to help organize and donate items no longer wanted. She kept me updated on the status of the sale. I could not have had a better agent.

Experiencia fantástica: The Barnes Family was wonderful to work with. Especially Tabby, who really looked out for our best interests. I would definitely recommend them.

Experiencia positiva: Barb Vancura was amazing! I I was a little frustrated when it took so long to get the final total since I was wiring the money to pay for the home because I needed 24 hours and barely got that.

Experiencia fantástica: Lori was absolutely amazing and did a wonderful job helping me find an incredible home!

Experiencia fantástica: Very good experience with Skogman Realty especially with our Real Estate Agent Dee Downey Pata. She was so great to work with and went up and above. So helpful and positive. We would not hesitate to recommend her services for buying or selling.

Experiencia fantástica: We highly recommend working with Tabby Barnes and also her family in the Barnes Real Estate Group! Everything went smoothly and we really enjoyed working with Tabby!! We listed our condo with them and had an offer within a week. We closed about one month later. Thank you Tabby!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jean Perkins is absolutely the best! She fought for us every step of the way, even when the market was at its most competitive. She is the sweetest most patient realtor you will ever meet.

Experiencia fantástica: We absolutely adored our relationship we built with our realtor Liz E.is awesome and goes above and beyond for her clients.we would highly recommend her to any of our friends!! She is a rockstar!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a very good and professional experience with Skogman Reality, and i especially liked working with Bob Vanderveen, my realtor.

Experiencia fantástica: Marian Flink was my realtor. She was not only extremely knowledgeable, but prompt in responding to my questions and concerns. She also listened to my requests and found me the home I was looking for. Dream!

Experiencia fantástica: We LOVED working with Jewel and Tabby Barnes to sell our house - they were always responsive, made the process super simple, and were straightforward and honest throughout. We got so many great offers, and their insight in sorting through them was essential. Even walked away with a super thoughtful closing gift!

Experiencia fantástica: We truly enjoyed our process selling our house with Jill and Jacey! They did a great job communicating. It was great and we highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Cathy Hill was amazing to work with and made things so easy. She helped make my first home purchase a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend Cathy Hill!

Experiencia fantástica: I've mostly Interacted with Courtney Blair, but every time she needed assistance throughout our process, everyone was easy to get along with and very accommodating. I can't say enough about Courtney and her professionalism even when dealing with difficult situations/people. She's a Rockstar!!! If you're looking to buy or sell a home, she's your gal.

Experiencia fantástica: We had a fantastic experience with Skogman Realty! We appreciated the customer service with our purchase as well as with the sale of another property. Skogman also assisted with insurance changes/quotes in an accurate and timely manner. Shout out to Brad Oppedahl for his kindness and understanding during the entire experience! Lacy Allen worked diligently to procure insurance. We highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: My agent Brad was excellent-great communication and guidance through the whole transaction…highly recommend him-thanks Brad!

Experiencia fantástica: Lori Frett and her team were absolutely amazing!!! Lori took care of every detail, from scheduling inspections and bids from contractors, to making sure all of the closing details were happening on schedule! We felt like Lori, and her team, set fair expectations, and went above and beyond to provide the best outcomes through the entire process.

Experiencia fantástica: Heather Morris was our agent. Valuing our home was a challenge because there weren't any comps in our neighborhood. She took a highly analytical approach to the whole market which resulted in a listing price higher than we expected. Her marketing plan was well thought out and executed exactly as promised. The result was we received a full value offer in 5 days. Her excellent work didn't end there. There were some complications with setting a closing date. She managed the negotiations flawlessly. She was very responsive to emails and text messages. We recommend Heather highly.

Experiencia fantástica: We bought and sold through Tina Freese at skogman. She helped cut though the clutter that comes with buying and selling. She was not pushy. She was knowledgeable, timely and followed up. I would recommend her and skogman for any of your real estate needs

Experiencia fantástica: We had a fantastic experience with Skogman- both on the buying and selling side! Our agent Leslie Berger helped us through every step and made it all easy and manageable!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the second time we have used Will Brandt for a new house, and selling our old. His availability and knowledge is second to none. Thank you Will Brandt for finding the perfect house!

Experiencia fantástica: Susan Eaton did a FANTASTIC job selling our house. Not only was she very patient with us taking a LONG time getting ready to move. When the emergency to sell it came, she was right there and got the job done!!!! I will recommend her to everyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Madeline Jasa was tremendously helpful, informative, reliable, and persistent in helping us sell our first home. We are so happy to have had the opportunity to work with her and are appreciative of all the time she spent to get our home sold!

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t say enough good things about Jewel, Tabby, and Mike. They’re hands down the best real estate team I’ve ever worked with! They’ve helped me buy two homes and sell one, and each time, their expertise and dedication have blown me away. When it came to selling, they gave me professional, spot-on advice about how to make my home more appealing to buyers, keeping me ahead of the latest trends. But what really sets them apart is how they go above and beyond. I had a massive outdoor rabbit cage to move and no way to transport it, no truck, no trailer, nothing. Out of the blue, Jewel, Tabby, Mike, and even Jewel’s husband showed up at my house with a truck and trailer, loaded it up, and hauled it to my new place. Who does that? They’re not just realtors; they’re problem-solvers and genuinely great people. If you’re looking for a team that’s knowledgeable, proactive, and truly cares, you won’t find better than Jewel, Tabby, and Mike!

Experiencia fantástica: Jewel and Tabby came in at the perfect time, made themselves available when we needed them and are super personable and professional. I was hooked after our first experience. They got us in our new home and out of our old one. I’ll never go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: We contacted Nathan Kejella in February 2025 as we were having trouble selling the house after being on the market at least 9 months.Nathan was very helpful to us as we were in Des Moines, he explained everything so we understood all the moving parts of the sell. He kept us informed, communicated with us regularly. By March 7, our house was sold!! We are very thankful to Mr. Nathan Kejella for going the extra mile for us!! We were very fortunate to have worked with him and Skogman Realty! Highly recommend contacting them for home sale or buy!

Experiencia fantástica: Our sale was handled in a very professional manner. We are extremely happy with our agent's performance. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful experience with both buying and selling our homes. Jeff Wenthe went above and beyond with our search for finding our new home, highly recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: Well all I can say is my realtor Laura Merchan is the best! She was so patient with me both buying a condo and selling my house! I would highly recommend any one selling and buying property to be lucky to work with Laura! She’ll take care of you! Thank you so much Laura! Linda Yuza!

Experiencia fantástica: Maggie Druger did an incredible job both securing our dream house as well as quickly listing and selling our previous home. Highly recommend Maggie!

Experiencia fantástica: Courtney was so helpful in the process of buying and selling. She went above and beyond to make the experience easier. She is a good communicator and always made sure our questions were answered. I would highly recommend working with Courtney!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot thank Tabby, Jewel, and Mike enough for the work they have done. As a first time home buyer, using a VA Loan, there was so many questions and concerns going through my head. But this trio did everything in their power and more to make sure I was taken care of and set up for success. 11/10 will always recommend this team and will always be grateful. Thank you three again. We love our new home.

Experiencia fantástica: Lori Frett was so pleasant, easy to work with, listened to all my requests and made purchasing of my new home so easy! Lori took care of all the details!

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with Jackie Hallman to buy a house and she is absolutely incredible to work with. Very prompt always and knowledgeable not just in the selling/purchasing process but also helping to recommend amazing local contractors. I highly recommend working with her.

Experiencia fantástica: My realtor was excellent. She kept me informed as to the progress of my purchase. I am very satisfied with the service I received from them both.

Experiencia fantástica: The Vestweber team at Skogman Realty was fantastic to work with. They had answers to all our questions and made the whole process good. Special shoutout to Diana, Grant and Jason. We appreciate the wonderful service.

Experiencia fantástica: Nick was was great to work with. Extremely responsive and patient with our questions throughout the the whole process. Very knowledgable about all areas of the buying process. Thanks Nick.

Experiencia fantástica: As first time homeowner, Diona Carpenter has been helpful to us during the whole process in assisting our needs for the house. Although, we came across some issues causing the delay of our initial closing but overall amazing people to work with and had great time doing business with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Daric & Annie Kaestner were absolutely wonderful to work with!! We would recommend them hands down! Thank you for being amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Annie and Daric Keastner are a wonderful couple and an outstanding team! They took incredible care of us throughout the entire selling process and made it a truly stress-free experience. Their organization and attention to detail were top-notch, and we felt supported every step of the way. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, dedicated, and caring professionals!

Experiencia fantástica: Our agent, Tina, was so "IN TUNE" to our needs. Very professional, yet, not staunchy. All committments met, and on time. I never want to move again, but if I have to, I will be calling Tina at Skogman!

Experiencia fantástica: Jill & Jacey with Skogman truly made our first home buying experience a breeze! They went above and beyond for us, keeping us in the loop with each step, and doing countless things for us behind the scenes. We debated not using a realtor, but their expertise made this experience so easy for us, that I would never suggest going without one (Jill & Jacey, specifically). I could not imagine having to directly deal with many of the small details that they took care of. These ladies know their stuff! We are so thankful to have met them and cannot wait to share their names with our friends and family, so their home buying experience can be as great as ours!

Experiencia fantástica: Brian Hannah was great to work with. He made the process easy and as stress free as possible. I recommend him to all my family and friends.

Experiencia fantástica: High marks for Skogman. We worked with Jill Monnahan, a truly professional realtor. Her excellent communication was key in making our sale trouble-free. I recommend Skogman, and Jill, in particular, for your future real estate needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Steve Emig was very professional. He is such a courteous person. Always ready to show the homes we were interested in. We purchased our new home from him and he sold our other home. Very helpful with ideas to help sell our home. We had an offer 24 hours after we listed it. Sold for asking price.

Experiencia fantástica: We ran into hiccups (nothing that was anyone’s fault) but Tiffany Earl Williams, Shannon Debner and Tiffany’s assistant Paula were so helpful and patient with getting my partner and I through selling my home and us purchasing a home together. All of these women were so knowledgeable and kind, we will never work with anyone else and we will continue to recommend all of our friends and family to work with agents from this office!

Experiencia fantástica: Barb VanCura was awesome! This was our 3rd time working with her; we always recommend her when asked for suggestions for realtors. She was honest, understood the market, explained things so we understood, and had great follow through. When we reached out, Barb responded in a timely fashion. She would make a great mentor/role model for young/new realtors! Thanks Barb!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience and highly professional service by Marian Flink. She was able to navigate all steps and challenges along the process and support us successfully all the way up and including the closing process. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: We hired Maggie to do a job for us she did her job and got us the offer we needed. Would highly recommend her she gets the job done.

Experiencia fantástica: Annie and Daric are fantastic! Our experience was night and day better than our previous house. They followed up when they they would, and were always in communication with us. I really cannot say enough about them. God willing, we will never buy a house or move again, but if we need to, we will ask them again to represent us.

Experiencia fantástica: Marian Flink is fantastic. She is punctual, responsible and is always right on top of everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better home buying experience. We recommend her to everyone we know.

Experiencia fantástica: Skogman Reality, specifically our realtor Marian Flink is outstanding!! Because Marian was so amazing the first time, I referred my mother, and we selected her again when searching for our current home. Both times she helped us through every step of the process: searching, offer, inspection, closing and much more. Marian is an exceptional realtor who made it all appear effortless.

Experiencia fantástica: Jenny Skogman did a fantastic job selling our home! The pictures of the house for the listing were fabulous and very flattering. The suggested price range that was recommended was spot on and completely in line with comps in the area. Jenny was very helpful, knowledgeable, and professional, and she made us feel very comfortable throughout the selling process. We highly recommend Jenny Skogman and Skogman Realty!

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse Grade has worked with me through two home purchases. Thank you, Jesse, for being my realtor of choice! You helped me purchase my last condo where I lived for 13 years. When I decided to move for various reasons, you kept looking until my dream condo was found, purchased, and closed on. I’m happy to say I’m the proud owner because of you. Jesse has a great personality, is honest and goes over the top to find you the home you are looking for. When you do find it, he works hard to make sure you do end up with it. If you want a realtor to really work for you and with you, Jesse Grade is the realtor for you!

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie Hallman was amazing to work with. So if you're in the market for home she is the one to go to. She made herself available during every process and made sure there were no questions unanswered.

Experiencia fantástica: Leslie was both my buying agent and selling agent through Skogman! She did a wonderful job of walking us through the buying process and even more exciting she has made the sale of my current house go very smooth with all of her knowledge and expertise! I would highly recommend her under Skogman realty!

Experiencia fantástica: Liz was awesome to work with. She stayed on top of any and all issues which arose and she is an excellent communicator. We would highly recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful home buying experience with Annie and Daric Kaestner! They made the entire process enjoyable and very easy. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the market for a new home.

Experiencia fantástica: Judy Sloane was great! She took care of everything - setting up inspections, taking care of fixing problems found during inspections, setting up our loan, generating all that paperwork.

Experiencia fantástica: My Realtoor was Rachel Ray and she did an amazing job. Rachel was all about business and very clear on all the steps and procdures on selling my house, we sold the house before it even hit the market. I highly recommend her as your realtor. Thanks again Rachel.

Experiencia fantástica: I had such a great experience with John Beardsworth. I bought and sold houses through him. The new tech made it easy to manage showings and view houses on the market. I never felt concerned once during my process. John was pretty upfront about everything I needed to know and always answered my questions on things I wasn’t familiar with.! My only regret was not being able to go golfing with him! Thank you, I intend on using Skogman in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: The process was very professional, we got the best price for our home and it sold in 14 days. Our agent was very knowledgeable on the process and the team had suggestions for us on what to do for showing the home. My only complaint would be communication sometimes was left up to us to get information also seems like the electronic process takes the personal interaction away.

Experiencia fantástica: I love my realtor. Susie Eaton helped me sell my house 3 years ago on Apache Trail. When I decided to move back to Cedar Rapids I contacted her immediately. She is so nice and knowledgeable. She took my sister and niece around to so many houses to find one that would work for me. I even apologized for her having to run around so much and she just said - “Oh my! It’s what I do!” She is just the best and I would recommend her to anyone! Best experience buying and selling a house!
