Becky was fantastic. She was extremely helpful in guiding us through the whole process of finding a new home. Her experience and insights were invaluable in very quickly selling our existing home and in negotiating a great deal for our new one. I would recommend her to everyone.

Becky kept in contact with me throughout the buying process, and spent a lot of time with me when I came into Rockford to look at properties. It is difficult to buy a house when you live 2000 miles away, but Becky always kept me focused, even though sometimes I had to wonder why I thought a particular house was great when on seeing it ( and after Becky told me) the house was clearly not great. Working out the details took some back and forth but Becky also remained upbeat and kept me in the loop as different proposals were made. At last all the documents were signed, and Becky even left me some essentials (toilet paper, etc) upon my arrival. I don't plan to move again (certainly not 2000 miles) but if I do move locally, I would go find Becky.

Becky Thalhofer did a great job seller our house and helping us purchase our dream house! She was able to quickly sell our house for what we were asking and help us navigate through difficult situations involving the purchase of the new house. Becky knows the market well. I highly recommend giving her a call for the sale or purchase of a house.

We are so pleased that our agent, Becky Thalhofer, was recommended to us by a relative. The whole process went extremely well because Becky keep us informed and answered any questions we had in a timely matter. What could have been a stressful experience turned out to be a very pleasant experience because of Becky's expertise in real estate. We would definitely recommend Becky to others

Thanks to our amazing and dedicated realtor Becky, we have now been at our first home for nearly 6 months now!! Wow, how time flies! Although time has flown by, we will always remember our experience with Becky as a great one! She was there every step of the way, and even when we decided to take a 6 months home-search break to improve our credit, she didn’t forget about us- not even one bit. She kept in contact, periodically sent us lender options for when the time was right, and didn’t pressure us in any way. If ever we had a question, she was there, hands down! She felt like family since day one. She was extremely transparent, patient, genuine, honest and funny. Our best interest was definitely her priority- you can just feel it! Oh, did we mention she was like an energizer bunny?!! She will get the job done- Fast! I’m not sure she even sleeps at night lol. We love you Becky! We will continue referring you to everyone we know and can’t want to do this again some time in the future when our kiddos are a lot older of course!

Dealing with Becky enabled Janne and I to purchase the house of our dreams. It was pleasurable dealing with someone who returned phone calls and emails promptly. Her negotiation skills greatly facilitated the purchase of our house. We were impressed with her attention to details and enabled us to meet milestones/deadlines in the real estate transaction process in a prompt and timely manner. Becky is a professional individual and took a genuine interest in making sure we were comfortable and confident throughout the acquisition of our home. What more can we say, we felt good in dealing with Becky and made us feel more like friends than customers. She's #1 as far as realtors go!!

Noah Meyer recently helped my husband and I purchase our first home. Even though we gave Noah a pretty specific list of must-haves, he came through and found us a home that was in the school district we wanted, at a right price point and age/condition. My husband and I lived over 2 hours away at the time, but Noah was very flexible and able to show us homes when we were in town. He answered all of our questions and guided us smoothly through the process. He also offered help with finding a lender and an inspector who were very helpful. Noah is very knowledgeable about the area and easy to work with. We especially appreciate his character and background in construction. If we ever want to buy or sell a house again, Noah is the first person that we will call!

Neva is awesome. She clearly knows her business which is reassuring when there are so many entities wanting their piece of the pie when it comes to closing. She goes the extra mile. I feel like she is more of a friend than a business associate. She understands my concerns and wishes. I have already told a number of my friends and associates what a professional, competent, knowledgeable, thorough agent she is.

January was the second realtor we came across during our home search. I knew after our first showing that she was the realtor I wanted to work with. She took her time explaining each property, was honest with her opinions of the properties and how it matched with our needs and was open with any negatives that may be connected with the area or property itself. January made us feel comfortable and important. She took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for exactly. She took our needs seriously and made sure to keep in contact on almost a daily basis. Once we found our perfect home she would answer any and all of my questions in a timely manner. If she did not have an answer she would find someone who did and relay the information to me right away. The closing process was smooth and painless. She made sure to have our best interests at heart and gave us sound advice. She also went up and above and attended all inspections and walkthroughs to make sure we felt as comfortable as possible during each step of the process. She is truly a wonderful agent to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an agent. In my opinion, January exemplifies what I would expect from a realtor.

Jayne Ragan, our agent, is the best! Jayne went above and beyond her duties in finding us a condo. Rain, sleet, and snow, she was always on time and always smiling. Every question and concern was dealt with immediately and she walked us through each step of the process. Jayne is a true professional, knows the business and has high standards. We felt assured she had our best interest at heart. Her integrity is without question. Thank you Jayne for all your hard work. Sincerely, Arnie and Kasey Berg

Jane went above and beyond, I believe, well above normal conditions in selling a house. We moved to Romeoville from Rockton so Jane had to call us to let us know what was being done to perfect a good sale. She was a champ from beginning to end. If any of our friends still in the Rockford area need a realtor we will refer Jane and Dickerson & Nieman.

Mark is the ultimate professional. There was no pressure and he found us the house we were looking to purchase. Anytime I called him he would call back within an hour and was just a joy to deal with. We got the house at a price we were looking for and it has everything we wanted. The property is beautiful and the house is solid. Mark did not let us down and he is the reason for our moving to Beloit. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Mark is phenomenal at his job. He cares about his clients and advises carefully and thoughtfully. He is highly organized, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive to any questions or concerns that we had. We refer everyone we know to Mark and if we ever need a real estate agent again, it’s not even a doubt who we’ll use. He’s the best in the area.

Christi was always there for us, no matter what time of day. She was patient and worked with our difficult work and travel schedules when it came to appointments and signing documents. She found our new house for us by listening and being attentive to our needs. She was supportive of us through some difficult times in the buying process. From our experience buying with Christi, we knew we would list our old house with her as well. She did a wonderful job on both sides and she is a great communicator. Thank you Christi!

Christi Steines was terrific helping me to work through the purchase of my first home. She was very responsive whenever I had a question, often responding within an hour or less regardless of the time of day, and was patient as well with what were probably pretty amateur questions. From the very beginning, she was attentive to my wish list in a home and never tried to put pressure on me to make a decision or compromise on what I wanted, while also making sure I understood the realities of the market and what was appropriate for my particular situation. As the process continued, she was great at coordinating all of the different parties involved and following up when necessary. Overall, I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you are a first time buyer. As someone who was very apprehensive about my first home purchase, she made it as simple, transparent, and comfortable as possible.

Chris was the perfect realtor! She has knowledge of the real estate in the Belvidere area, her professional and immediate responsive communication were exceptional, and her negotiation and realtor expertise helped our family get the most out of the sale of our home and purchase of a new home. While selling our home, Chris knew how to price our home, all while guiding us throughout the process of negotiating the selling of our home and purchasing of a new home. Communication was a big factor for my family and I when choosing a realtor, if we could rate her communication and responsiveness 1 - 5, we would give her 100!!! As we were in the process of selling and purchasing a home, many times we would continue to have questions during that process and always felt 100% comfortable talking to Chris whether it was multiple times a day or only a couple times a week. All in all, without Chris, we wouldn’t have had such a great and smooth process of the selling and purchase of our homes. If you’re looking for a realtor, Chris is the realtor to hire!

Drew Anderson and Noah Meyer made the sale of our mother's house as easy as possible. They were proactive, responsive and knowledgeable. We had multiple offers within days of listing and they adeptly handled the process from start to finish. They truly went above and beyond our expectations.

We just purchased a great new home with Lyrah's help. Previously Lyrah helped us find and buy three rental properties and she sold my father's house for us. Lyrah put in way more time than should be expected as we searched for over two years before we found the right house and Lyrah stayed with us through it all. Her time and dedication paid off for us as we eventually found the right home. Now she will be selling our old home.

Our experience with Dickerson is related directly to Lyrah. We have purchased 4 properties through Lyrah. 3 rentals and a personal residence. We also sold a home(my husbands parent's home). Lyrah is upbeat, flexible, responsive, helpful, organized and fun. She tolerated 2 1/2 years of house hunting with grace and patience. We are very grateful for her assistance! We always prefer to turn to Lyrah.

Working with Tanya Vincer has been an amazing experience. She had a thorough knowledge of the property and answered our questions quickly and completely. She was incredibly helpful in every aspect of our purchase of the home. We are new to the area so we had a lot of questions about how to access services and how to locate various service people. Her knowledge of Byron is extensive so, with Tanya's help, we were able to quickly connect with the appropriate people and service companies. Tanya even told us about an event in town that we attended the night of our closing. After the closing, she has continued to help us out. Tanya is a superstar!

This was my first house buying experience and Mark made everything so easy for my wife and me. He knew the right questions to ask and when we told him what we wanted in a house he did a great job in selecting houses that we could see ourselves in.

My agent, Tyler Ragan, made sure that everything was covered and taken care of. Selling this home as part of an estate made it complicated for me. Tyler made the process seem effortless. His explanation of every step was very informative and so easy to understand. He made himself easily accessible with the many questions I had....I am forever grateful!

We we're very happy with using Kelli Wensky with Dickerson Nieman. She seemed very knowledgeable about the market in our area and where to price our house to sell, and because of that our home sold fast and we were happy with the outcome. She was always accessible when I had questions, which I really appreciated. Kelli went above and beyond for us and was a pleasure to work with.
