About Erika

About
I was raised in Humboldt, IA (north central) and graduated from Iowa State University. I specialize in the suburban markets and first-time buyers. In my free time I enjoy reading, yoga, running and taking trips with my family. My husband and I look forward to watching our three children grow-up in what we believe is the best place in America to live. Des Moines has so much to offer everyone and I take a great deal of pleasure in finding clients their perfect home in the ideal area. I have expertise with today's technology and tools, and use those skills to streamline the buying and selling processes, so your experience is guaranteed to be a stress-free one. I enjoy the personal connection I get to have with my clients, and know that I'm not just selling them a house, but a home. I take great pride in the service I provide my clients, and operate honestly and openly... the way true Iowans do. I look forward to hearing from you when you are ready to make that move!

Tom C. bought a home in Urbandale

We loved working with Erika to find our new home. She was very knowledgeable and quick to respond. After going to a few houses, she was able to get a good idea on what we were looking for and even gave us heads up on homes that were about to come into the market that she thought we'd like. I would work with Erika again in a heartbeat.

Matt G. bought a home in Waukee

Erika was recommended to us by my husband's colleague. We were first time home buyers and a little anxious about the process. After our initial meeting, I knew Erika was a good match for us. She was professional and knowledgeable about the areas we were interested. I felt listened to & understood. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly she scheduled appts for us to view homes. She provided a fresh perspective during the process but was never pushy. I truly appreciated how responsive she was to text messages & emails. She is excellent at what she does! I would recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor. So so happy we worked with Erika to find our home!

Sean B. sold a home in Johnston

This is the second time we've had Erika help us find a house. Great experience both times. Very responsive and flexible. Explained all the paperwork to us in terms that we could understand. Would definitely recommend.

Jessica G. sold a home in West Des Moines

Erika has been such an amazing agent to work with. This was an extremely difficult market to buy in this year and Erika knew how important every detail in the transaction was. She worked so diligently on our behalf with the sale of our home and the purchase of the next. We have bought and sold with Erika representing us before and it doesn't matter what side of the transaction we are on. She handles everything with prompt responses and makes sure there is always time for you. Buying and selling a home are naturally stressful times but having an agent you can trust is a game changer. Thanks Erika!
