Don't Just Take Our Word For It!

My husband and I just closed on our home today. We are so very excited!!! Dana Welch, our realtor, is an amazing person! She was by our side every step of the way from looking at houses to the closing. She was always by our side helping and supporting us. She knows the real estate process very well. She knew exactly what we were looking for. She is very professional yet friendly. To us shes not just a realtor but now a friend! Dana is the best! Sue, at Pro Real Estate, is the best too! She was always friendly when I went into the office to have documents scanned and sent to the lender. There was one time I called Pro Real Estate at 4:55pm (5pm is when the office closes) and she stayed later to scan and send documents. She too is very professional but very friendly. Very welcoming! They arent trying to sell you a house for the $$$. They are trying their best to find their clients homes that they will love for years to come. Dana Welch found us our perfect forever home. I highly recommend Dana for your home buying experience! You will not be disappointed!

Marnie is absolutely amazing and went out of her way to help me and get showings to accommodate my crazy schedule. If you need any help ask her!! She is amazing and next time i need to move i will be asking Marnie to help me! My 3 year old even loved her!

Extremely professional. Pro real estate (Mark & Candy) went way above and beyond to take care of us and get our house sold. I highly recommend them.

Dana was absolutely amazing in the entire home buying process. I have purchased multiple homes and she was by far the most thorough. She checked previous history for all of the properties we looked at, improvements made, fair list price. I would absolutely recommend Dana to anyone relocating to the area or just looking for something new!

Knows the area well. Returned My calls/emails almost instantly,off hours,Saturday and Sunday included. Got just what I wanted in about a week or so. Thanks Dana.

Judy was always there for us at a moments notice. She made looking for a home a fun experience and was always upbeat. Absolutely loved doing business with Judy.

Thanks again

Dana helped us buy our first home. She was very knowledge and helped us if we had any questions. She was also able to show us houses with short notice. She is very responsive to any calls, emails, or texts. I would recommend Dana to others because she is friendly and will have your best interest at heart

Marnie helped sell my property in Diamond and it could not have gone better. She took charge of the selling process and coordinated everything from the showings to the minor repair to be made after the home inspection to the appraisal. The best part is she did this with and selling price that was within about 5% of the asking price! The closing could not have gone smoother. I highly recommend her and Pro Real Estate!

We worked with Chris on looking and purchasing our 1st home. His knowledge, input, and interpretation of the market for are area was so helpful. My wife loved how he could point out things she wasnt seeing. Chris was sure to tell her what she should be worried about or not be worried about when looking at things. He offered his honest opinion on pricing verses the market on what we was looking at. We loved that he was always able to work on getting us into see something fast because the market was so hot in the range we was looking. We wouldn't use or recommend anyone else in the market to buy or sell. Chris is the ultimate professional and friend when your looking for your next big investment

If anyone is looking to buy a home or sell their home I highly recommend Chris Shell. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor! He is extremely knowledgeable and is willing to point out the good and bad things he sees in a house which I found really helpful. I cannot thank him enough for his patience while we tried to figure out what we wanted in a house. Once we found our home he was there to help us every step of the way and I honestly believe he had our best interests at heart. He truly was excited for us that we found our home. Chris is a great realtor and a great person!
