Yes, this will seem like one of those "found this person's info by doing a search, and they worked out great" stories, and it is true. My wife did a search and found Andrea Pettitt, and the great reviews she had caught our interest. We had previously looked at another Realtor (suggested by our bank) and did NOT like his process. Andrea went above and beyond, simply put. When it came to comparable (COMPS) it was a detailed, thought-out comparison, not just a quick search, copy and paste summary that anybody could have done. She has great local knowledge of the Boise Real Estate market, and a great network (handy man, painters, cleaning crew, and property staging) and understood our needs and desires to get the best price for our house. We working on the properties curb appeal, and she suggested other small improvements in order to help the house sell quicker. We had many many questions, and her responsiveness was awesome (I was able to call, email, and text her at any time -and never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a reply back).When we listed the house, and showed the house the following weekend, we had three offers within the next 24 hours. Her negotiation skills allowed us to come in near the asking price, and her staff helped with the closing, that was smooth and quick. If you want your property sold quickly, with the best return on investment, you need to call Andrea Pettitt. read more

I had a lot of friends offer realtor referrals when I was ready to list my house. I had Andrea over for a talk and immediately liked what she said and how she approaches the realities of selling and the current markets. All my notions of what I wanted weren't necessarily the best options, so I trusted her advice and she was always right on. I had already moved out of state and she and her team made me feel like I was their only client. All the details of selling were professionally handled and every hitch (things out of our control) was promptly resolved and her advice was sound. She didn't abandon me when things got tough, and we moved through this process smoothly and quickly. She kept my stress levels very low, and made sure I kept a good perspective. I am SO GRATEFUL for her help...and her level of professionalism. Every single person involved in this process was on the spot, responsive, competent, open, respectful, and wonderful to deal with. I'd recommend her to anyone with any situation, she can handle it. I think she could handle ANY situation you threw at her! Not many can do that. She's got to be one of the best of the best and if you need a top notch realtor to go to bat for you, she's worth a call. read more

I have worked with many, many realtors over my 'many' years. I have got to say that Andrea was working on my behalf from day 1. She spoke to me with honesty and clarity that others should aspire too. She listed my house and I signed a 3 month contract. That was the first thing I noticed. Every other realtor made me sign a 6 month contract. I was so impressed with her confidence that we would have that house sold within 3 months that I lot of my concerns began to immediately melt away. She kept me informed weekly about what was going on with the house, her marketing efforts, who visited, what they had to say and followed up with every possible lead. She listened and guided me with a patience that only someone who loves her job and working with people, could have. No question went unanswered. The house did sell pretty quickly. Her assistant, Jennifer Blackaby was also instrumental with organizing and keeping everything and everyone moving in the right direction and a timely close. I am definitely a happy camper. ANYTHING I can say or do that might make Andrea more successful and others as happy with their outcomes as I am, I am more than happy to do. read more

We hired Andrea Pettitt to sell our house in Boise. Myself and my brother bought this house 6 years ago as a place for my son to live while he attended Boise State. My brother and I live in separate states, Washington and Oregon, so selling provided some unique challenges. Plus, the house needed a great deal of work prior to putting it on the market. Andrea is amazingly well connected in Boise and she took care of everything - the house needed a new roof, carpet, drywall, and painting. There were issues that popped up at every turn and Andrea and her team handled everything with professionalism. My brother and I felt so confident that we didn't even visit Boise after our initial decision to sell the home. The house sold quickly, our profit was above satisfactory, and none of this could have been accomplished without the help of Andrea Pettitt and her team. I strongly recommend her for your real estate needs in Boise, Idaho!!! read more

Andrea Pettitt and her dedicated team made our selling experience so incredibly easy! She gave us sound advice based on her extensive knowledge of the Boise Market (the Northend specifically) and was ALWAYS available to answer questions helping us make the best decisions in getting our home ready to sell. She gave us invaluable leads towards contractors (painter, granite contractor and stagers) who were ready to jump onto the few projects we needed to accomplish to get the most out of our home. Most valuable was her attention to detail and time talking us through each step of the process. We had already made the move to a new city and Andrea always made us feel the sale of our home was her top priority, which eased any anxiety we may have anticipated. We received top of the market selling price and couldn't be happier with the whole experience. We couldn't have done it without Andrea! read more

Words cannot describe how lucky we were to work with Andrea Pettitt. I would highly recommend her to everyone! We were selling an older home, merging households and buying a bigger one. During this stressful/exciting time, Andrea guided us the whole way through this crazy process with such care and professionalism. If you're looking for an agent that will work hard for you and truly do everything possible to make your transition as smooth and rewarding as possible... then Andrea is the person you want to talk to. I agree with everyone else who has given Andrea five stars. She gives beyond 110%. She is all about integrity and excellence. She LOVES LOVES LOVES her work. She is extremely detailed and patient and on top of all this, she is such a kind and beautiful soul. I really can't imagine working with anyone else. Work with Andrea. She is undeniably the BEST at what she does. read more

We recently worked with Andrea and her team to sell our house and buy a new one. She is very knowledgeable and professional, but also friendly and easy to work with. I was blown away by the analysis she did to determine the market value of our home...so detailed and thorough! Even in this competitive market, Andrea was able to very quickly connect us with the right buyer, then connect us with the right seller when we were ready to buy. It was almost too easy! It seems like she works some kind of real estate magic, but I think she really is just that good! In the process of selling and buying we had a chance to work with almost everyone on the team (Andrea, Chris and Jennifer). The entire team works to make you feel like you are their only client and to make the selling/buying process as easy as possible. I can definitely recommend Andrea and her team! read more

We chose Andrea because of a personal review from someone that had chosen her multiple times. This speaks volumes when you repeat business of such magnitude with the same person. We were both impressed with Andrea's punctuality, professionalism, with the photographer, and with her assistant. We knew every step that was being taken to market our property. Andrea kept true to her word and helped us (the sellers) in every way to sell our house. Everything was like clock work from the listing to the final sale. We were up and online in less than 36 hours. We would recommend Andrea strongly for any future transactions you may need. If and when if we ever decide to move again, we would definitely use Andrea to represent us again!! Thank you Andrea, Sincerely Ken and Donna Bean - Middleton Idaho read more

"Couldn't have asked for a better agent. As someone who is very interested in understanding the particulars and technicalities of the home-selling process, Andrea was excellent in explaining the process. She is knowledgeable, honest, and patient. Andrea understands the competitive nature of Boise's housing market and so responds promptly while still giving full the full details needed in a clear and concise way. All of her communications and required steps as a realtor were completed on time or early. She never pressured me to make decisions I wasn't ready to make, and she always brought the best available market information to me so I could make the best decision possible." read more

Andrea helped us sell a previous home and purchase a new one. Then, eight years later, she helped us sell again. What we appreciate about Andrea is her energy and enthusiasm and ability to help us through the home-selling and -buying process. She has the experience to know exactly how to maneuver through the process and help you get what you're looking for. (And she listens to what your wants and needs are. She doesn't just decide for you what you need.) But she is also current on the use of modern methods of marketing and researching. She is quick to respond to questions and always patient with us. We would highly recommend Andrea if you're buying or selling (or both)! read more

Andrea has done an excellent job facilitating both the purchase and selling of our homes. She was able to take our "wish list" and find an incredible home that we would have easily overlooked. She also provided concrete exams of how to prepare our old home for sellers. While she did not actually paint our front stoop red (which the buyers loved), she showed up with an extra can of paint making the job an easy task. Andrea has continued to keep us in mind with potential investment properties and is quick to answer any question we have regarding the real estate market. We have since suggested Andrea to family and friends and feel very comfortable continuing to do so. read more

Andrea is AWESOME! By the time Andrea was recommended to me, I had already tried two other real estate agents who I felt didn't take me seriously at all. Andrea was going to be my last real estate agent whether I got a home or not. She was always quick to respond to my emails and our first time looking at houses I knew that she didn't do it for the money, but because she truly loves what she does. She was open and honest about the houses that we saw, and educated me along the way! The house I chose was a short sale and Andrea was willing to go the distance on it! She made my home buying process a great experience and I would recommend her again and again!! read more

I had a great experience working with Andrea Pettitt. She always answered my calls. I gave her a weeks' notice before leaving the state. She assured me her team would come in and take care of my house and they did. Her contractors came in and repaired the items I requested of them. The house was staged, and the pictures showed the house at its best. All contract signing was over email, the notary came to my new residence out of state for the final closing. The second offer on my house closed in less than two weeks. Overall, this was the least stressful part of my move. Her team was very professional and kept me in up to date on the selling process. read more

Have you read "The Horse Whisperer"? Andrea is the House Whisperer. She has a unique gift for understanding her clients and navigating the market which we have used to our advantage both buying and selling. We've had the pleasure of working with Andrea on several transactions, including difficult ones involving things like bidding wars, unscrupulous builders, and international bank accounts. Her patiently persistent approach is well-balanced with deep expertise and unflagging professionalism. Most recently, Andrea found us a house that we never would have found on our own, and we love it -- her support, service, advice and creativity are invaluable. read more

Andrea was a tremendous help in the recent sale of our house. She and her team were there every step of the way, from helping us locate contractors to aiding us in restoring the home to good condition after several years of renting it out,to staging the home and quickly finding a buyer. The closing was somewhat slow due to the loan process, but she was there providing much needed positive support, keeping us informed and helping to keep the process moving forward. We had a very positive outcome, selling our house for full price. We would definitely recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable realtor. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Andrea on the purchase of my home in Boise -- I'd work with her again in a heartbeat, and would recommend her to anyone!

She even made videos of potential properties for me when I was out of town! She really goes above and beyond.Once we found the right property, Andrea made the process from making the offer to scheduling inspections to closing smooth and easy -- and answered my many questions along the way thoughtfully, honestly and knowledgeably. read more

-rose.gary45 reviewed Andrea Pettitt 01/16/2013 Helped us buy a home Moving from out of state can be very difficult but Andrea made it much easier. Our first contact with Andrea was over the internet. Then officially this past summer as we were scoping out the area for retirement. We were so impressed with the Treasure Valley and Andrea that we went home and prepared our home for sale and my retirement. We returned 4 months later to purchase our home with Andrea's help and guidance. We enjoyed working with Andrea and highly recommend her services to buyers or sellers because she cares about YOU. read more
