Shawna was hands down the best realtor for our sale. She was on top of any and all situations that were a possibility. Great communication with us at all times. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and we would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

We had the pleasure of working with Shawna during the sale of our home, and we couldn't be more grateful for her support throughout the process. From the very beginning, she stood out with her excellent communication—keeping us informed and reassured every step of the way.
What really set her apart was how she guided us through all the little hiccups, especially as we were juggling the complexities of building a new home at the same time. Her calm demeanor, sense of humor, and eye for detail made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable—even enjoyable.
She was always on top of things and consistently looked out for our best interests. We felt like we had a true partner and advocate in our corner.
We highly recommend Shawna to anyone looking for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, dependable, and a genuine pleasure to work with.

Amber Holmes went out of her way to deliver nothing but exceptional service. It took a while to find the place that we were looking for, and she showed us so many houses for a couple of months and never gave up. She is easy to get along with and she try’s so hard to make sure that she’s looking for all the things you would want to buy in a home.
Amber thank you for everything. I will always recommend you. Your honesty and A+ service was the best I have seen in the industry.

Horrible experience with this realtor. Contacted Amanda Francis on February 11 through her website with questions on a property she had listed in Davenport that I was very interested in. It had been on the market for several weeks.
I got a text message about 10 minutes later, signed with Amanda's full name, asking if I was "actively searching for a property or just browsing". I told her I am actively looking, although my current house is not up for sale yet but can be ready to go on the market within 2 weeks. I never received a response to that text, or the next 2 I sent.
On February 12, I left a message with her office asking to speak to someone about this property. I got no response that day.
On February 13, I got a voicemail from Amanda saying that she didn't know who had been texting me, but it wasn't her. Then she said but of course she would talk to me about the property. She said she was in continuing education classes that day, so if I left her a message she would call or text on her "next break". My husband called and left a detailed message minutes later. We never heard from her at all.
On February 16, I called Amanda and left a voicemail. No response. So I again called her office asking to talk to someone about this property. Pretty quickly after that message, Amanda calls me back and says she's sorry it had taken her so long to get back to me. She stated that she didn't get our voicemail on February 13. I tell her it's been impossible to get ahold of her and she gives me some nonsense about not getting her messages because of some new phone system or something.
Then she lets me know that this house sold on February 12. I asked her why she didn't let me know this on February 13 when she left me the voicemail. The next 7-8 seconds was dead silence before she then tried to tell me that the "final paperwork" hadn't been signed at that time. Seriously, something shady is going on here. The house sold 1 day after I inquired about it, but I got the runaround for almost a week. I'm sure the current owner would be interested to know that there was another potential buyer interested in the property, something that could have caused him to receive a higher price for his home. Something very shady went on here, and I fully expect that this house has been bought to be flipped and it will be listed by this company again in about 90 days. SHADY!

When I first met Shawna I immediately knew I could trust her to help me find a home. Since I was not pressed for time to move out of my current home I took my time over 3 years to find one. She was very patient and professional. The closing went fast and was uneventful. I highly recommend Shawna for anyone buying their next home!

Amber was an excellent help and represented us well. She showed us a home, and within a week we made an offer on a different one she found for us, which met our needs perfectly. She guided us through the steps smoothly, and we closed in less than a couple of weeks. It was wonderful working with her, and I feel we can always reach out for anything, anytime, despite only meeting her a couple of weeks ago. We are so thankful for her guidance during this huge step!

I cannot recommend my realtor highly enough. They handled the sale of my home with exceptional professionalism, dedication, and compassion during a particularly complex and challenging time. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to complete the sale.
It’s rare to find someone who is not only highly skilled at their job but also genuinely cares about their clients. Thanks to their hard work and perseverance, my home was sold efficiently and with excellent results. I’m incredibly grateful for their service and wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again or recommend them to anyone in need of a truly outstanding real estate professional.

I can't say enough good things about Amber as a real estate agent. From the very beginning, she was incredibly helpful, attentive, and personable—truly a pleasure to work with. She made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable every step of the way. Amber took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and was always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and provide reassurance.
What stood out the most was her dedication. She put in maximum effort the entire time, going above and beyond to ensure everything went as planned. Whether it was arranging showings, negotiating details, or simply checking in, Amber gave 100% and then some. Her professionalism, warmth, and genuine care made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend Amber to anyone looking to buy or sell a home—you won’t find anyone better.

Amber was AMAZING! We were out of the country when our house went on the market. She went above and beyond to help get our house ready and we were not worried at all when it went live. Our house sold in 3 days after receiving 12 offers. Amber made this entire transition go so smoothly-Thanks Amber!!!!

simply Amber was great. She stayed with the project, came up with creative ideas and had multiple people look at the house. She kept in contact always and worked real hard to find a buyer. The house is large and needed special people to own it which she found . Not sure how we were lucky enough to have Amber involved in the sale of our home. wish we had another house to sell so we could have Amber again

If you are looking to buy a home I can not recommend Amanda Francis highly enough! She not only truly cared about finding my girls and I the right home to fit our family but she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with the whole process. Whether it was checking for leaks under the sinks, helping me determine the age of the furnace, pointing out both good and bad things about the homes she was hands on and there to really make sure I got the best home possible.
