We used Walt Hess and Gem State Realty to complete a complicated, time sensitive real estate transaction. Walt and his team did a great job, was very responsive and knowledgeable. Even when we were unsure of what we wanted Walt was patient and had great suggestions. I have already referred Walt to a colleague and he was able to help her purchase a home while still out of state. What Walt doesn't know is I have referred him again to a very close friend looking to invest in our community. Thanks Gem State Realty, Walt and the Hess team.

We just completed another Sale through Adam. It sold extremely fast (like within 24hrs) and closed in short order, as well. Once again, Gem State Realty helped us to cover all of the required bases needed to make this another successful transaction.

We have worked with Walt Hess for years and have never been disappointed with his knowledge, professionalism, and personal concern for our needs when selling property. As a fellow Realtor and Broker of my own company, when I needed to be out of town, I always relied upon Walt to co-list and represent both my company and our personal property to oversee and help complete a transaction without missing a beat! He has always been there for me not only as a peer but as a mentor whenever I had a question that I felt needed a second viewpoint. Thanks to Walt and his assistant, Jim Bails, we have had nothing but successful transactions even in our absence! Thanks Gem State Realty! You are a shining example of what all Real Estate Companies should be!

We had a great experience listing a home for sale with Gem State Realty. They gave us a marketing report to help us with the list price. The first and only open house was held right away, and the house was sold in less than 10 days! The agents and staff were professional and knowledgeable
