Closing the sale matters, but more important is having a trusted advisor in your corner who has your back every step of the way and is able to keep you safe from potential pitfalls.

“Kelsey was excellent to work with and knowledgable about the market. As we hadn't moved in over 24 years, she was extremely helpful in guiding us through the process.”

“Working with her was such a wonderful experience. She’s very nice, respectful, and truly listens to what we want. She’s loving, patient, and treats you like family, which makes everything so easy. I would gladly work with her again and again. The way she talks to her clients is everything—so kind and understanding. I first met her when I went to see one of her open houses. I didn’t like that particular house, but she immediately offered to help me find another one. At first, I thought it might be complicated, but everything went so smoothly. She never got upset with me, no matter how many questions I asked. I could call or text her anytime, and she always responded quickly with no delays. Her personality, patience, and professionalism make her stand out. She is truly a joy to work with.”

“Kelsey Barnhart was my first agent when seriously looking for a townhome in the Urbandale area where I was living at the time. She was very knowledgeable about what was on the market. When I heard about a possible townhome soon to go on the market, Kelsey Barnhard was right on top of things for me. She helped me put in an offer the day it went on the market and it was readily accepted. Kelsey Barnhart assisted me in the preparation of getting my original house ready to be put on the market. She, along with her team leader, made a selling plan which was very successful. The house was on the market 5&1/2 days with 67 showings and received 13 offers. Closing was a month later and I was very pleased with the outcome. I would definitely reccommend Kelsey to anyone in need of a great Realtor.”

“From the very beginning, Kelsey was kind, helpful, responsive, and worked with my many requests with no issues. She was easy to work with every step of the way, and all of the companies she recomended for inspections etc were top notch as well. She found us our dream home, and we are so thankful for Kelsey and everything she did for us! Everyone who met her said they wished she would have been their agent and expressed how phenomenal and rare she is. We were very lucky!”

“Kelsey was great to work with while purchasing my first home. She was very helpful with finding multiple properties to look at other than the ones I'd send her and worked with my schedule for scheduling times to go tour the houses even if it was a weekend or later in the evening. When it was time to make an offer and start paperwork for everything she had lots of beneficial information and advice that really helped everything flow smoothly.”

“Kelsey was absolutely amazing to work with! Although it was happen stance that we ended up with our realtor, we honestly couldn't have asked for a better one. This was both of our first home and we had lots of questions, even some probably goofy ones and she always went above and beyond in answering them and answering them thoroughly. She always was super responsive in answering texts/calls/emails throughout the whole process. She always knew our next step, she was great at reading who we were as people and what we were looking for plus she anticipated and listened to our next move and what we needed to make everything work! On top of being an excellent realtor, she was also just an amazing person to work with. Wether it be just that our personalities matched in general or she decided to match our personalities while working with us, either way we always managed to have fun and laugh and honestly just make our experience, in a hard process in general, she made it amazing and fun!”

“Kelsey is amazing. She is personable and excellent communicator. I was able to find the best home for my family with her expertise and love for Altoona! Luckily, the seller was at Century 21 and it allowed for Kelsey to coordinate seamlessly! Being able to freely express my families unique wants and needs was critical in this process. Kelsey provided that space. I am so grateful!”
