"Teresa, I want to sincerely thank you for the GREAT job you have done selling my home. I am sure you remember the holiday (Memorial Day) you came over to my house and allowed me to "grill" you on your approach to selling a house. I shared with you that I have bought/sold many houses, and have had few positive experiences, thus I was very determined to choose the "right" realtor. And I exceeded my goal...you have been perfect! What you did best: Respect: You respected my strong will and did not try to bulldoze me into doing things "your way". You respected my age, and did not treat me like a "little old lady from Pasadena" (I did live there 5 years ago!). In fact, you frequently referred to my experience as a positive.And you showed respect for your customer (me) when you asked my honest opinion of your presentation, took the constructive criticism great, and gave me some feedback. Communication: You communicated every step of the way..you did not leave me out of the loop and then call to catch me up. I feel as thought I have been part of the process.
You were not difficult to get a hold of. I never once felt, "OK, I signed the bottom line, now I can't find her" like I have so many times in the past. Efficiency: And most importantly, you got my house sold in 2 days! Teresa, you have restored my faith in realtors. I just wish I could take you to California with me to help me get situated there! Thanks again," JoAnn Zelko
"Teresa, we so appreciate the efforts you put forth in helping to sell our home. If the late nights and the number of showings are an indicator of the way you marketed the house and pushed it to other agents, it had to have been your full-time job. Selling the home despite its limitations in 30 days was well beyond our expectations! The quick sale decries the old wisdom in "Location, location, location." We know it made selling the house more difficult, but you took the challenge and ran with it, and got very close to our asking price, even after other realtors had made it appear to be an unachievable task. Backing up to the Interstate isn't most people's idea of tranquil settings for their $300K home. But you got enough realtors through the front door by your marketing techniques that it worked. I'm sure we'll be contacting you again for another quick sale, but I'll try to convince Wayne that location really is important before we build another beautiful home for you to sell. Thanks again for your professional and successful approach to dealing with both buyers and sellers." Wayne and Colleen Floyd
"We would like to inform you of the outstanding job Teresa Brooks did handling our recent real estate purchase. She worked outside normal business hours to help us acquire our new piece of property. Teresa went above and beyond to make sure both seller and buyer were satisfied. She managed to negotiate a price that satisfied both parties. Thanks to Teresa we now own our "dream land." We would highly recommend Teresa to anyone buying or selling a home or land. She is knowledgeable, aggressive, and always available to take care of clients. Her outgoing and friendly personality made us feel liek we had known her for years. Teresa even won over our little girls. Now, when we drive by our new property, our 3 1/2 year old says, "Where's Teresa? Can we see her?" Teresa Brooks is an asset to the Koehler Bortnick Team. Being in the building business, we have done business with many realtors. Teres is exceptional and a true professional."
Robert and Molly Garver
"My wife and I would like to express our gratitude to Teresa Brooks and the Koehler Bortnick Team. We would strongly recommend Teresa to anyone who might be selling or purchasing a home in the Kansas City market. Whether it was her ambitious nature, or her courteous professionalism, my wife and I were constantly impressed with Teresa. While we knew we were in a difficult situation with the current downturns in the housing market, Teresa never let us give up hope. We sold our house several months sooner and for several thousand dollars more than expected. Again, if you need to buy or sell a home in the Kansas City area, you need look no further than Teresa Brooks and the Koehler Bortnick Team."
Chad and Tara Andersen
"We not only would recommend Teresa Brooks, but we actually have already recommended Teresa Brooks to our family and friends. Her aggressive management style is balanced by a graceful, comfortable personality that made the often stressful realty process incredibly easy for us. We firmly believe that she is the reason we sold our home only two weeks after it was listed... for a price better than we expected...in a community surround by newly built homes for sale. She has gone above and beyond to both help us sell our current home and to coordinate our subsequent move. She is an expert at what she does and feel so fortunate to have worked with her." Becky and Steve Lowry
"We must express our appreciation for Teresa Brooks as our realtor. She worked aggressively and professionally throughout the entire selling process. My husband and I feel that Theresa went above and beyond for us and for the sale of our house. She was always easy to reach and quick to respond. We really felt like we were her only client. After quick review of our 'For Sale By Owner' asking price, market demand and other conditions of our home, Teresa offered her professional recommendation for a new asking price. We were glad to have so many house showings finally! Having a fair price to start was probably the reason that we were able to get a contract on our house within 18 days of hiring Teresa. We are very happy with Theresa's help selling our house. We know we couldn't have done it without her." Chase & Heather Stewart
