When we first found Katie, we were looking for a younger agent who would be able to give us insight as to the area. We were from out of state and wanted to find a safe area with good schools and a good reputation. When we decided to sell our house a few years later, using Katie again was a no-brainer. Katie was an amazing communicator. She kept in touch with us almost daily on the progress of our house. I work nightshift and we have a new baby, and she worked with us to make sure that showings worked with our crazy schedule. We can’t thank her enough for the work she put in to communicate with us daily to schedule showings. Katie did a great job marketing our house. She promoted our house within her office, and online/on social media. She communicated with us weekly about its “views” and activity. She was also extremely organized. Being that we moved out of Iowa, this was extremely helpful to us and we couldn’t be more thankful. She even made sure that we had everything good to go for the inspections, appraisals, closing, etc. without needing to come back to Iowa. We can’t thank her enough for that! The sale of our house could not have gone more smoothly. We listed at a weird time with it being the holidays and the dead of winter, but Katie got the sale done. We cannot thank her enough for the hard work she put in to get our house sold fast, to work with our crazy schedules, and keep us in the loop with the sale once we left the state. She wrapped up everything for us without us even needing to be there. Thank you! Katie! You were amazing. Your hard work and constant communication did not go unnoticed and we appreciate all of the little things you did to make selling our house as easy as possible.
Katie is a gem! We do not have a lot of experience buying and selling houses. She gave us expert guidance throughout the process. She always told us what the steps were and where we were in the process, including timelines. Overall, I was impressed with her attention to detail (so I did not have to attend to those details that I did not fully appreciate). If there was a way this could have gone better, I don't know what it would have been.
Katie not only possessed all of the skills and savvy one hopes to get from your agent, but so much more. Katie extended herself to provide comfort and advice for the 2.5 years we knew her. You see she helped us find the house for our college daughter, as we were out of state parents, then when our daughter graduated 2.5 years later, she helped us sell the property. Her forecast of appreciation in value was spot on! She even shoveled snow and vacuumed for all of the showings! Katie takes pride in her profession, and comes with our highest possible endorsement.

We were from out of town, so it was very important how available, responsive, and patient our relator was to work with. Katie was all of this and more. When we came down Ames, to look at houses, she always made time for us. When we decided to make an offer, she was very helpful with the process. When we needed to hire an inspector, Katie knew the right one to call and he was terrific. When we needed to negotiate a little with the seller about Radon Mitigation, she was very helpful. There were some extra things left by the seller, that needed to be taken care of, Katie personally took care of it. These are just a few examples of why we highly recommend Katie as a Realtor. Thanks, Katie!
Katie Riedeman went above and beyond the call of duty in order to help me sell my home, and I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area trying to sell their property. One of her strongest qualities is the ability to understand the particular needs of her clients, and this was definitely the case with me. She listened and communicated well, understood that I was trying to find a particular buyer for my home, and went out of her way to help me advertise and present my home to potential buyers. Katie was able to take a process that can be quite stressful and turn it into what was genuinely a pleasant experience. Thank you so much, Katie, for helping me sell my home to a family that will make good memories, and for being so compassionate and understanding. I'm so very glad that my colleagues gave me your card!
We chose Katie not only because she was referred to us by a friend, but because she was responsive and proactive.
Katie made the process so easy and was awesome to work with! I truly can’t explain how appreciative we are for all her help. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Katie again in the future!
Katie Riedeman was first class in the way she helped me make this purchase. Always on time and ready to listen and respond to my requests.
This is the second home we've purchased with Katie and we would confidently work with her again in the future! She was dedicated to helping us find the right home- even attending showings while 9 months pregnant! Couldn't be happier with our experience working with her and her team.
Katie was great at listening to our family's situational needs and tireless in her effort to work and find what we needed. She didn't try to hype or sell any of those presentations because she knew instinctively that's not what we wanted and that we would make up our minds for ourselves which presentation suited us best. We very much appreciated her effort within our time frame.
