Success stories

“We truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Kathy Swanson. From beginning to end, she was incredibly available, experienced, and knowledgeable about the areas we were searching in. Buying and selling a home can come with plenty of unexpected challenges, and Kathy calmly navigated every bump along the way, kept everything moving forward, and made sure we always knew what was happening and what came next. Kathy and her excellent support staff made us feel supported throughout the entire process. She consistently went above and beyond for us—and at one point, practically turned into Dog the Bounty Hunter to track down the information we needed! That kind of determination, dedication, and willingness to do whatever it takes for her clients is something you simply don’t find everywhere. Buying and selling a home can be incredibly stressful, but having Kathy in our corner made all the difference. In our opinion, there is no one better to guide you through the process. We would recommend Kathy Swanson without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“Kathy is so very personable, helpful, professional and genuinely cares about you as a person before as a seller. She and Jeremy met with us multiple times to ensure all was going well, including giving advice on improvements to help sell our house. Their ideas came to fruition beautifully when our house sold within one week. Kathy and Jeremy are busy agents, but took the time to ensure our needs 'felt like their #1 issue". I 100% recommend them to anyone looking for the best.”

“Look. Buying and selling a home is hard - there’s no getting around that. The best gift you can give yourself is to work with someone who gets it and will help you through it. For us, that was Kathy. 100% would recommend her and her team.”

“Absolutely amazing real estate agent! Incredibly helpful to first time home buyers who know literally nothing about the area & niches of home buying & viewing. Incredibly responsive & quick to get us to viewing houses & getting more information on the houses we loved! I’m sure if we didn’t have Kathy as our real estate agent we would still be looking for the perfect home!”

“Without Kathy’s expertise, our home would not have sold as fast. She was ahead of every possible twist, turn, and bump in the road during our sale, and kept us informed every step of the way. Never distracting from the task at hand, and always dealt with the difficult questions when others would shy away from them. We highly recommend Kathy Swanson at Remax Concepts as your listing agent.”

“We recently listed our home for sale with Kathy. She is excellent to work with. Great communication, helpful suggestions, very personable. Our sale process was very smooth and stress free! We enjoyed working with her!”

“If you’re looking for a stress-free experience and for guidance every step of the way, Kathy is the realtor for you. She is amazing at what she does and by working with her, you can see the passion and drive she has for you and for her clients. Extremely detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and honest in her work! My husband and I cannot recommend her enough. So excited about our new home and truly believe we couldn’t have done it without her!”

“I can’t recommend Kathy Swanson and her team enough! Kathy helped me buy my first home 7 years ago, and she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. She’s incredibly responsive, honest, detail-oriented, and always on top of everything. Fast forward to recently I needed to sell that same home quickly while living overseas. This was far from a simple sale. I had been renting it out using a local property management company (Renters Warehouse) and unfortunately the home ended up vacant during the winter with a broken furnace and burst pipes. I realized I needed to act fast. I reached out to Kathy for help. Kathy didn’t hesitate for a second; she jumped in and took charge. She even personally checked on the furnace, coordinated repairs, and handled every detail to get the home ready to sell. Despite the circumstances, she made the entire process feel seamless. Kathy truly knows the Des Moines market and the real estate business inside and out. More importantly, she always had my best interests at heart. I’m beyond grateful for everything she’s done for me—helping me buy and sell my first home. I will always be thankful to have had Kathy in my corner.”

“Kathy helped the purchase process of my home buying go smoothly by her timely communication, her knowledge and transparency. I felt she had my best interest in mind. I highly recommend her!”
