Shauna did an excellent job of consulting with me and my family about how we should prepare our property for market and, once it was ready for market, how we wanted to show and list our property for the best possible exposure. Also, she did an excellent job of representing my family’s interests during the negotiation stage leading up to finalizing the sale.

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…

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…

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…

Bought a Single Family home in 2019 in Pleasant Hill, IA. Jasmina was awesome to work with! She is very knowledgeable when it comes to the Des Moines market and what different areas have to offer.

Selling a home is stressful under the best of circumstances, but selling a home while relocating a thousand miles away in the midst of a global pandemic could be a receipe for headaches and heartburn. I am so thankful that I listed my home with Brandy Underberg because she made the whole process virtually effortless. Superb advice on listing price, staging and once the offer came in, she handled all of the details in a top notch professional manner. If you are looking for a realtor who knocks it…

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.

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

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…
