I have had several exceptional experiences with Mark Payne. He has helped me personally purchase my first home. Mark made a daunting first-time home search very easy for me by presenting me with a variety of homes that fit my personal criteria. He is very patient and his style isn't "salesy" which is refreshing. Professionally I have referred many of my clients to utilize Mark's expertise in a variety of geographic areas and he always receives rave reviews from my clients (which makes me happy!). Mark is the first person I think of when I hear that a friend/client is looking to buy/sell a home. I never hesitate to put people in contact with Mark. Mark Payne and Dickerson & Nieman Realtors provide a first class experience!

Dear Kathleen.
I am responding to your request for a statement regarding the manner in which you represented your realty company as well as yourself. Every thing that I had hoped for including information regarding the procedure for selling 301 Shaw Street in Rockford, IL ,my responsibilities in preparation for work necessary in implementing the house sale, all possibilities for what may come regarding the sale, constant update on current events of potential buyers, and compliments on the work which I was responsible for, and words of encouragement and appreciation for the business in which we both were participating.. AND so much more!
I believe that our relationship was and has become most special. You can be trusted with performing at an A + rating, both professionally and personally! I consider you to be a true friend of mine!
What more can a client ask and hope for? I will be forever grateful that my daughter, Betsy Youngquist, suggested that I contact you to be my realtor!! You deserve the very best recommendation for future business!
Thank you with all my heart. ( You know that I went to school with Bob Nieman.}

Sandy was given the job of selling my mother's house, where she had lived for 60+ years. The house did not show well, was on a busy street, and it was winter. We figured we would be sitting on it for 6 months or more.
Sandy found a buyer within 33 days, worked with both parties to make sure the house would qualify for the FHA loan and negotiated a split on some of the costs of repairs.
I have known Sandy for many years, and she is very hard worker, is extremely ethical, and knows Rockford real estate inside and out. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing to buy or sell a home in the area.

I have bought two houses with Jayne no and I couldn't imagine doing this without her. Working with Jayne is truly a pleasure. She patietly and thouroughly walked us through each step of the process making sure we fully understood everything. We ran into several unusal circumstances that would test any agent's honestly and integrity and Jayne never waivered. She is a class act and always professional.

My experience with Kim was great. I am not a person that writes off the cuff reviews well, but I know that all the details were handled in a professional matter, as well as things were taken care of in a timely matter as well. It was pleasurable experience as far as selling a house can be with the many things that can transpire.

As I was relatively new to looking in the Rockford area for homes and didn't have a realtor, I took the referral from my brother and sister-in-law. Jayne Ragan was very responsive to my needs and wants, she was able to identify properties that were what I was looking for. Her calmness and understanding of the market, helped make me feel more comfortable with such a large purchase. I would highly recommend Jayne to future home buyers.

Brandon was an excellent partner in the home buying process. I am a first time home buyer and was quite nervous about the process. Brandon was extremely helpful and always willing to answer any questions that I had. He made me feel as though my questions were important, and if he did not have the answer, he would find it for me. He made me feel at ease and had a great personality that actually made the whole process fun. Thank you, Brandon!

It was great. I hate working with people, and Brandon did a great job of accommodating me and my weirdness. He was extremely responsive to my needs and did great with the negotiations. He made sure that I was comfortable with him and how we were going about things. That was huge!

Jane is an outstanding Realtor. She was beyond helpful and went over and beyond for my husband and I. We sold our house and bought a new one all within a few weeks and our closings were just days apart. Jane works so hard and so well at keeping our stress levels to a minimum. Without her we could've not done this. Thank you Jane for your outstanding customer service I will highly recommend you to anyone and everyone!!!

Thresa Yapp is a highly qualified realtor. I would recommend her to anyone who is confused and not really sure what they are looking for or for any reason. She is very patient and takes your phone calls anytime you have a question. She worked very hard on getting me what I was looking for on the sale of my house. She is full of suggestions and help. She helped me to have less stress during the sell of my house. If you are a procrastinator she will get your butt moving. She was there thru all my stress and worries. Thank You Thresa for being my friend and my realtor and being fully involved. If anyone would like a recommendation I will gladly give one and let them know she is the best. Thank You Dickerson Nieman Realtors for only having the best qualified Realtors on your team.

Had wonderful results with Louise Brattland. She's extremely knowledgeable and helpful in every way. We wouldn't go to anyone else. She was always at our disposal, returning calls quickly, and answering any questions we had. Plus she did a beautiful job of staging! We highly recommend her, and have done so to many of our friends and acquaintances. If there were a category for "Realtor of the Year", she should get the award!

I was referred to a Dickerson Nieman agent by a coworker who had bought a home with them previously. My agent Gail Caplinger was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer questions and provide her knowledge and guidance to help me purchase my first home. I would highly recommend her and Dickerson Nieman Realtors to friends and family.

Excellent! My wife and I went into an open house and Met Brandon. The detail and help he provided us with was so great that when we got in the car my wife says "We will buy from him".
Helped us thoroughly from start to finish, never harassed us just stayed in contact. "Squeaky wheel gets the grease". He took the time to get to know us and what we liked and in the end found us a house that fits our current family with room to grow!
Sorry so lengthy but he made the whole process easy even if things popped up.

John was very attentive to my needs. He directed me well in every step of the whole transaction. Was spot on as far as direction of what needed to be done to show the house, so much so that we had 10 showings, 4 on the first day, 6 on the second. We had 3 offers on the first day and I accepted an offer on the second day. John was very accurate on the listing price and actually within 2K of the appraisal. He was very helpful on steering me in the right direction for all inspections, testing etc. that needed to be done. Bottom line is John was GREAT and is helping me with purchasing a home in Stillman Valley. He's a good guy and great agent!

Buying a new home includes more than just getting a good financial deal. Vicki Flanders not only understands this but takes the necessary steps to insure that her clients' needs are met. In fact, she would not even let us seriously consider a property until she had seen it and walked through it with us. Sounds a bit possessive, but her experience and insight helped guide us to a new home that really fits our needs and personalities.
And she made sure that it was within our budget.
Thanks again, Vicki.
This was another positive experience!

Selling a home in this market can be a harrowing experience. The 20 year experience we have had with Vicki paid off well in this transaction. Vicki is honest, straight forward, and sincere in her efforts to get us the most for our property with the least amount of discomfort. No matter what surprises popped up, she was ready and willing to support us. When things became a bit "muddy", she doubled her efforts and found the right buyers for our home -- all the while looking after our best interests. She knows when to push and when to back off. At the same time Vicki communicates with us and keeps us "in the loop".
This was another satisfying experience with Vicki Flanders and Dickerson Nieman!

Gail was amazing. She responded immediately every time I sent her a text. We found a house that my daughter wanted to look at late on a Sunday afternoon. Gail set up the showing right away so we got to see it the same night. She helped us make an offer and helped negotiate with the seller after the inspection. Gail is a very hard worker. I feel that Gail truly cares about her clients and goes out of her way to make the buying process easy. She kept us informed the whole way.

On a scale 1 – 10 Gaby is a 100+ I cannot say enough good things about Gaby Johnson. We were in a very bad situation and needed to get out rather quickly. We called Gaby on May 15th signed contact and we closed on our new home on May 28 a total of 2 weeks. Gaby is the best I work at Hamilton Sundstrand which employees thousands of people and I will definitely recommend Gaby to anyone I hear looking to buy a new home.
A huge thank you Gaby Johnson and Dickerson & Nieman Realtors we would not be in our new home today if it were not for her.

Shelley Martin worked with us in finding our new home in Rockford and she was excellent. We were moving from out of town and she did a great job of lining up about 10 houses for us to see on a Saturday with short notice. She was also very knowledgable about Rockford and the particular areas in which were were looking. I really appreciated how responsive she was to my endless questions. Texts, emails, and phone calls were returned almost immediately. Once we were under contract on our new home, she was very diligent in following up with the seller on all deadlines and inspection issues. Even after our purchase was complete, she quickly responded when I asked her for a referral for an electrician. I would highly recommend Shelley to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Rockford area.

Brandon Johnson was persistent with our pursuit for a new home. He worked with us for over 6 months to help locate the perfect fit. My wife and I appreciated Brandon's patience and professionalism throughout the home search process. Brandon also assisted with selling our old home, which sold for nearly full asking price in 1 day. We look forward to enjoying our new home for years to come and will definitely ask Brandon to help us with our next home search.

I moved our family of 4 from Ft. Myers Florida. Knowing our destination would, I expected, make our property purchase easier. I called several Realtors from this area and explained our situation that our property in Florida was aggressively priced we would be cash buyers and would be purchasing a Rockton area home very soon. I made calls to Key Realty, Century 21 and at minimum 2 other brokers at which time I gave the agent our “plan to move itinerary”. I called a couple agents more than once. No return call, no interest.
I was relating my negative experience to longtime friend and lifelong resident of Rockton Joseph Metz. He recommended Vicki Flanders and provided her phone number. I called her immediately and gave her our game plan and housing needs. Her response by email was the same day. Prospective listings arrived often daily and she was always available by email and phone to answer questions. Never had to wait for an answer to an inquiry. We called Vicki on June 14th to let her know we had arrived and met with Vicki on Monday the 15th. We closed on our new property in Rockton on July 6th.
Vicki Flanders is pleasant, a people person, and always on time. She clearly understands the nuances of her market and has the requisite skills to put a purchase together rapidly.
We are very pleased and offer the strongest possible recommendation and our personal thank you for making our transition seamless.
Thanks Vicki,

Jayne Ragan was very friendly and well educated in the Realtor world. A bit overwhelming to say the least at first, sitting with her and Becky (Stager) we had no idea it took so much just to list your house but we did everything they suggested and they knew what they were talking about because our home sold first person first 24 hours of listing and full price. What more could we ask for!! The process after selling was a ease. Thank you Jayne and Becky.
