Molly is awesome. Our friends referred us to her in 2010. We listed our beloved Ames home with her,…read moreand had an accepted offer in 21 days. With an easy and successful closing, we felt happy and grateful, and were able to confidently move into the next chapter in life. When we were listing our home, (we were still pretty young), and we had done well with cleaning and staging, but I hadn't noticed the paint wear on the front stoop wrought iron handrail. Molly kindly pointed out that I might quick take care of that since it's the front entrance to our great house. Immediately, I knew she was right. But, I must have looked stupefied? I was! As silly as it sounds, I didn't know how to fix it? Molly patiently explained to me how to get it cleaned up and ready for something miraculous called Rustoleum, (now I *KNOW*). All-in-all, it took me one trip to the store and 10 minutes of work to drastically improve our entrance. And that's just ONE of many examples of her attention to detail, experience, and humble approach to helping you. Now, we're in the market to buy again, and are thrilled to have Molly by our side! As a buyer's agent, she is helping us figure out exactly what we want, and gets the tough questions answered, so that we feel confident moving forward. Thank you, Molly.

She is super knowledgeable, and has so much experience. We learned a lot from her! She is high energy, light hearted, and positive and it makes a sometimes stressful situation easier! We sold our house in 2010 during the heart of the house market crashing, she sold our home in 21 days! We were so excited. She handles all the behind the scenes paper work, and makes sure you are getting the best of the best in all the deals.

She comes prepared with paper work, and get's extra info to all the questions you need answers too. We will continue to work with her and recommend her to first time or experienced home owners! Her attitude, knowledge, and experience is second to none! I'm so glad we choose to work with Molly!

I reached out to Traci to help with my house hunt in the Ames area at the beginning of 2024. She…read moreshowed me a few houses and I made about 3 offers but nothing was accepted. She soon started having her assistants show me listings instead of her which wasn't a big deal to me. I work full time and needed to see listings ASAP outside of the 8-5 hours. One week, I had sent here a few listings on Wednesday and she said she would get showings set up for the following Saturday. I said that would work great. One of the listings I sent her was within 2 hours of it being posted, yet it seemed she waited days to try setting up a showing, so the house was pending by the day I wanted to see it. She neglected to tell me this until the morning of my scheduled showings. When I asked if the sellers knew someone else still wanted to see it, she went into crazy defense mode. She called me over the phone to tell me she did not want to work with me anymore. She said showing me listings was exhausting (which isn't that her job??), called me a "spoiled brat," and told me I could kiss her ass. It was the most unprofessional phone call I have ever had with someone. I would never recommend anyone looking for a house to work with her, buying a house should be an exciting time and she made it an absolutely miserable experience for me.

We are out $80 in application fees and management could not care less. The experience was shady from the start, and the attitude from management was completely dismissive. They hide behind canned, robotic emails that pretend to be polite while basically telling you to get effed. This is indifference, or perhaps disdain, dressed up as business casual. These people aren't just unprofessional; they're predatory. If you're thinking of applying, don't. Save your time, your money, and your patience by not dealing with this hustle. You'd have a better experience with a Craigslist scammer.

I interviewed three realtors before my family sold our house in Ames. Misty was the first of the…read morethree, and by the end of the third interview she was far and away the obvious choice. She was so forthcoming with information, by the end of the process, I felt as though she had taught me to be a realtor myself. My family was moving out of the Area, so we didn't use her to purchase our new home. However, once we had our new home purchased, Misty was quick to get our old home sold. Misty talked to us about staging the house, when to show the house, and how long it should be on the market. It was a little uncomfortable staging the house we were still living in, but Misty more than delivered everything she pitched during the interview process. I would definitely recommend Misty Metschke if you are in need of a realtor.
