Happy Holidays!

We first met Shauna at a property showing in our early efforts to locate a property. We were assisting our son, who was very busy with his work right now, in locating a property. Shauna took the time to understand in detail his unique requirements in a new home (including a very limited budget). Shauna searched the markets daily and when appropriate, communicated possible matching opportunities. She showed a great deal of patience, advised us in a very expert manor and assisted in closing on a w…

Shauna Smith has set a new standard in the real estate industry. Shauna marketed our property, using a professional photographer at no cost to us which showed our home in its best light. Shauna gave us feedback following each viewing and we had a signed offer within 48 hours. There had been a couple of issues with an overly aggressive buyers realtor, but Shauna buffered us from any unnecessary stress and ultimately a mutually beneficial outcome was achieved. We didn’t need to lift a finger and a…

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $100K in Bloomfield-Allen, Des Moines, IA

I had the pleasure of working with Timothy and his staff during the late summer and fall looking for a new home. I found Timothy to be a refreshing change from the other realtors I’d worked with in the past. He was particularly attentive to my needs, as opposed to trying to sell me his listings. At every possible turn he went out of his way to make sure I was in a good place at that particular…

Sold a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $125K in Union Park, Des Moines, IA.

Tim was always up front and professional. He did what we thought would be impossible and got our house sold within our deadline and on our terms. He is very knowledgeable and makes good use of his resources. He is not just a real estate salesman but a marketing specialist.

Bought a Single Family home in 2019 in West Des Moines, IA. Tim helped my wife and I find our first home back in 2009. He got to know us and figured out what we were looking for, and he found the perfect house for us. Over the next few years he helped us buy an apartment building and two other houses, and last year when we decided to sell one of the houses  he made the selling process easy and fast. The things I like best about working with Tim are his deep understanding of both the local hou…

When I needed to sell my rental property two hours away from my home, I turned to Shauna Smith and the Timothy Schutte Real Estate Team. Due to distance, Shauna had to coordinate getting the keys, cleaning the unit, final inspections and repairs. She kept me informed every step the way with frequent calls, text messages and emails. She was knowledgeable about the market and priced the unit perfectly to get me more than I dreamed I could get and get a purchase agreement in less than a week. Her e…

Bob Darr helped my wife and myself at a time I was having health problems, he kept us informed about our best possibilities, and worked at finding the best deal for both parties involved. He also went out of his way to make it easier on me to get things signed. I would not hesitate to contact Bob again. 

Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $225K in Waveland Park, Des Moines, IA.

Spent over a year looking at properties with Tim as my buyers agent. Tim was a great educator on the home buying process. Tim was willing to meet at my convenience. He made me a priority, and let me work through my indecisiveness, without being pushy or impatient. Best part was that you could get a hold of him if not immediately, within an hour or two. After I purchased a property, he continued to…

Bob is fantastic to work with. Very knowledgeable and helpful to clients. I would highly recommend him.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Bob Darr. Highly recommended!
