“My husband and I are moving to Omaha for school. Lance Zechmann was recommended to us by my mom who is a distant relative. Lance was great with recommending houses in our budget, timely video tours and answering many questions that I had. He provided me with realistic expectations and costs. I would highly recommend Lance to anyone looking to purchase a house. He was very polite, honest and we trusted him with purchasing a house long distant. Nothing is scarier than purchasing a house without seeing it in person however the process went very smooth! Thank you Lance!”

“Ted found my last purchase, negotiated a great price and when it was time to sell the property, Ted suggested a list price above my expectations. The property sold for above ask.”

“She does an awesome job, above and beyond.”

“My wife and I are first time home buyers and didn't really know much about the process of buying a house. When asking some friends who recently bought a home in Omaha, they referred us to Lance Zechmann specifically because of their great experience with him during their first home purchase. Lance was a phenomenal agent for us in every aspect of our process! Lance is very down to earth, asked us what we were looking for in a house, location, likes and dislikes, and literally anything else we could think of pertaining to our purchase. He was extremely easy to contact at any time of day and also was EXTREMELY fast about getting us viewings when we told him the houses that we would like to see (from the list he tailored specifically for us). specifically we asked him 10pm one night to see 3 houses and got to see them all the next morning/afternoon. My wife and I appreciated his speediness and flexibility as we were wanting to move into our new house before my wife and I had our first baby (which worked with Lance's hard work!) He was also great about giving us advice on how to bid on a house and what questions to ask the sellers that we wouldn't have even thought of (like new roof and gutters for our new house after a hail storm a few years ago). We also appreciated his flexibility to work with us during our financial rocky road (being told that we were preapproved for loan by our bank person, and then having this pushed back until a later date). Lance worked hard to make this all work out for us and calm our anxieties on this process. He smoothed everything over and kept us sane in this crazy process. We would 10/10 recommend Lance for ANYONE who wants to buy a home, first time buyer or several time. We will be going back IF/when we sell our new house that we love!”

“As a real estate investor it can be difficult to find an agent who understands the REI arena and the different strategies employed. Michael not only understood what I was wanting to do but was also using these same methods for his own investing. This helped tremendously throughout the whole process as he anticipated my next move and had the solutions already in place. In every step of the process Michael exceeded my expectations to the point where he get more like my business partner than my realtor. Being an out of state investor, this added level of service was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Michael Freed to anyone in the REI game or anyone looking to start investing.”

“Victoria Vopalensky was truly the best through the whole process. Answering any and all questions and reminding me to stay confident in decisions I made. When Victoria didn't know, she was quick to get feedback from her team to help me make educated decisions. Quick to respond and get things scheduled. Went above and beyond with everything.”

“Jenn was fantastic. She worked day and night to help us find the perfect home. We were only able to view homes virtually since we lived out of state, which was different. Jenn worked extremely hard to make sure we could schedule video tours during times that fit our schedule and she was so helpful in ensuring we could “see” all aspects of the house. She listened to our wishes and helped find a house that fit ALL of our needs. Jenn was by our side through the entire process. She was easy to get in contact with when we had questions or needed anything. She was a great resource and representative for us. This was our first time making a home purchase and we had a lot of questions. She took the time to explain things to us and seek out any answers when she was not certain. She is extremely friendly and professional. We Appreciated her input and advice on everything. I would 100% recommend her to family and friends (in fact, we already have recommended her to friends interested in making a home purchase). There was a small issue with the closing process between our mortgage company and the bank delaying our closing. It was difficult to seek answers and understand why it was happening. We ended up relying on Jenn to help us find answers and ensure everything was on track. We were thankful to have her keep communication open and advocate on our behalf during that stressful time. We would not use or recommend using the same bank in the future.”

“Bud, and Jane, Thomsen were excellent to work with as indicated by all of my selections. Responsiveness and detail oriented are critical attributes that both possess. They understand the requirements of a Bank Trust Department which are not the same as an individual. Pleased with our Sale together! Janet”

“Emily went above and beyond the call of duty searching for a house in our price range, videoing it on You-tube so we could see and hear her commentary, and taking care of all the details. We were from out of state and never even saw the house in person until the day of closing. Emily was superb!”

“In our minds Emily was The BEST choice! We had talked about building on a lake but with her knowledge she found us a perfect lake house that was already built. While I may have wonder lust and a traveling soul, she delivered what might truly be our forever home. We are forever grateful to have found her.”

“John Shattuck did an amazing job helping us find our new home. Very knowledgeable of the area, what the housing market is doing and how that impacts home buying/ownership. He is friendly and personable; really listens to the customer’s needs and ensures you have the information you want to make the right decisions. Trust was huge for me and John gave us all the right reasons to give that trust. Truly made our home buying experience as painless as possible as he showed us a variety of options to get to something that was just right for the family. Thanks to John, this family got off to the right start in a new town and neighborhood. You won’t go wrong if he is your guy! Highly recommend you give him a call.”

“Thank you for your assistance ! Much appreciation”

“Ted is an honest, hard working and knowledgeable pro! I have bought and sold numerous properties with Ted and will only use him in the future, he is fantastic!”

“This was our first time buying a home and getting involved with the process. Justin made that process very easy and talked us through all of our options. We had put in a couple offers and Justin was on point in getting that info out fast and the offers in. When our first offer was not accepted and we missed out on the house Justin was quick to to find other homes on the market and use his knowledge and experience to find houses that fit what we were looking for. We would text him and ask to see houses and he would respond super fast, in some cases we would see the house the same day we showed we were interested to see it. Justin was very easy to work with and walked us through all of the steps and worked with our loan officer to make sure we were on track and ready. A+++ I would recommend Justin to anyone who is looking to find the house they want in this crazy market we are in currently.”

“Victoria was absolutely amazing. We were visiting from out of state. She set up a showing right away and really listened to what we were looking for in a home. We really trusted her input about homes and neighborhoods. We could tell she really wanted to find us the perfect home and not just make a sale. She continued to work hard finding us the perfect home after we left. Once we found our perfect home she was amazing point of contact when completing the purchase. She was always so responsive and had answers to any questions we asked. She made the whole process so easy. It was like we were going through it with a friend.”

“The entire experience was very smooth. Andrew did a great job. I was always able to reach Andrew via phone call, text or email. He was readily available. I appreciated that. All of the other support staff at kwELITE, communicated well. I was kept up to speed with the process. It was quite simple and I liked that.”

“John Shattuck was very helpful in sale of not one but two condos for us in downtown Omaha. He provided a very good understanding of the market and provide timely communication with us throughout the process. John is caring, professional and provided us with good advise and insights in each step of our sale.”

“I would go through K. W elite again”

“Chrissy is the best! She has always been great to work with and her feedback and recommendations have been spot on. Chrissy makes you feel like you're working with a family member.”

“Emily Lynch and her team are amazing!!! Emily worked side by side with us listing our home. The pictures and video that where taken truly made our home stand apart from the rest! Emily sold our home in just FOUR DAYS!! I cannot say enough wonderful things, thank you for making this a fun experience! Sarah Lynch came on to lend a hand anytime she could. She was a wealth of knowledge and very detailed. The communication between all of us was amazing and so helpful. A more dynamic team would be very hard to find. Emily sent me dates in advance to have in my calendar with reminders. She is professional with every aspect she handled. Emily made selling our house so easy. She sold our home in FOUR days!! That was even with a pandemic going on. When I was stressed about the staging and cleaning of my home she was able calm me down. Emily helped us every step of the way.”

“Emily was always available. She worked around my schedule and made the process smooth. She was always on her game and if she didn't know something she would do whatever it took to get an answer. I’m soooo glad i had her as my realtor !! I will never use another company to buy my house again!”

“My dad went on the loan with me, and God bless Jen, she did a great job being patient with him and being extremely knowledgeable. I learned soooo much from her, and how we tried to snag that house before it came on the market. As a first time homebuyer, there were things I didn't even think about, like a sump pump. She was very knowledgeable and knew about basements structure and where to look for flaws. She helped me understand what the markets been like and great negotiation tactics to try and get the home! It's not just the amount of the house”

“Andy was able to sell my house & have it under contract in 5 hours! Not only is he trustworthy & honest...he made selling the house fun!”

“Nothing about this process was what I expected, and I mean that in the best possible way. I don't really know 'what' I expected this process to be like, but looking back I don't know why I was even the slightest bit stressed out. Jenn was absolutely amazing, from start to finish, any time there were questions she was right there with an answer! Jenn was extremely friendly, and accommodating (Especially considering we were buying a home during a global pandemic!) at no point did we feel misled, pressured, or rushed.. Jenn was happy to show us as many homes as we wanted to see and make adjustments based on our feedback! We did see a home that was PERFECT during an outing, but apparently it was so perfect someone literally put in an offer while we were still seeing houses! But by some amazing stroke of luck (Or she's seriously THAT good) she ended up showing us a house that was almost EXACTLY the same house, the only difference really is the way the basement is finished and the area but she literally found us ANOTHER of the house we loved but that sold before we could snatch it up, and at nearly $40,000 what the first one was listed at! Even after our closing Jenn has been in touch, we had a question as we lost the Alarm codes we were provided at closing for instance (Which is 100% our fault) but Jenn replied right away and got them for us again, and not even just with questions but multiple times she's checked in just to ask how unpacking is going and to congratulate us on our new home.. It feels more like I had a friend helping us buy a home than someone I had literally never met before November!”

“Jenn worked with my schedule and made it easy to schedule showings. Jenn communicated often and made sure my first time home buying experience easy.”

“Mo was great at communicating and getting back to us in a timely manner. He was able to get answers from the other relator and sellers that we were working on within a timely manner. I would recommend Mo because he is willing to get things done and make it happen. He wants to make sure that his clients are aware of what is going on and making sure that they are getting the best service they can.”

“Chrissy gave me the confidence and hope I needed in this home search process as a new home owner. She made me feel like I was the only one important when viewing homes for me and didn’t make me feel like a number. She’s an amazing good hearted person. Chrissy you’re awesome”

“We used Brian to buy our previous two homes. He was able to sell each house within days, and our offers were accepted right away also. He does not “fluff” and lie to us; I don’t feel like I’m being put through a sales plan (as someone who is in sales, I can easily recognize when it’s happening). He is always available for questions and will offer advice when we ask for it. We had a very difficult lender for our most recent purchase and I know Brian did way more than anyone else would have done to try and smooth out the bumps. We trust that he always has our best interest at heart. He is truly an example of a great real estate agent!”

“This was my first home purchase and Mike went above and beyond to make sure this whole process went smooth and least stressful as possible! His knowledge and expertise lead to finding my perfect first home! I went into this process knowing the basics and Mike taught me alot along the way and gave me lots of tips which help me feel more comfortable with my first home purchase! I Highly recommend Mike Horacek in any of your home buying needs! It's always good knowing you chose the right guy for the job the first time!”

“Ted was instrumental in helping us understand the Omaha market for investment properties. He went above and beyond what we expected from an investor agent and got us into a new property in less than a month. We would highly recommend Ted to anyone looking to invest in rental properties in the Omaha market. Ted is a real estate investor himself, which means he has a very good understanding of the unique considerations when purchasing investment properties. We look forward to working with him again for future property acquisitions.”

“Jenn did a amazing job looking at the details of the homes we had looked at and explaining faults of the homes as well as explaining any questions i had about the whole process. She was patient and always willing to help with the process anytime i asked. I couldn't have asked for a better relator to help me buy my first house.”

“Martha was very helpful with her assistance of purchasing my home. I am very satisfied and would recommend Martha to other people who are looking to buy.”

“Sarah was awesome to work with and did a wonderful job selling our home!!! Would defintely use her again!!!”

“Lee never failed to answer any of our questions, and we had so many! He was very honest about all of the houses we saw, and it was very much appreciated. Lee made our first home buying experience very easy! We highly recommend him.”

“To whom it may concern I am taking time to write this letter of recommendation for Jenn Jones because of the exceptional job she has done for me and my family with our recent home purchase in Omaha. The home was not a particularly expensive one it was a starter home for our son. We are not from the area and had to travel to Omaha.(3 hour trip) Jenn spent all day on Sat and Sunday showing us homes after we contacted her just 24 hours before because the realtor we had lined up canceled our appointment. As mentioned above, she represented us on the purchase side of the transaction. I also would not hesitate to use her as my listing agent if I were selling a property. She is very smart and knows her stuff. She knows what a good heating and cooling system looks like. She knows foundations, if the house is wired properly, she knows the building codes, all the in’s and outs of a well-built home, but most importantly she knows the area. I was so confident in her knowledge of the structures and the area after spending two days with her; I did not even look at the house we eventually bought, she made the call. It turned out great for our son and she even talked my wife out of offering more money than we bought it for! These transactions can sometime become very complex and she handled the whole thing for us. I have the highest level of confidence in her and feel she would be able to accurately assess any situation and figure out an effective solution. In future transactions, I will only have Jenn represent me for buying or selling. If you have any questions, I would be happy to email or talk with prospective clients to provide feedback on our very positive experience. Feel free to contact me at cardiaccrewag@gmail.net Peter, Andrea and Ryan Crew”
