ZillowVERIFIEDWe've worked with Sarah on three separate transactions aEUR" selling our land, buying our new house, and now selling our current home aEUR" and each time she's exceeded our expectations. She's honest, knowledgeable, and clearly knows the market inside and out. What really sets her apart is how hands-on she is. When we were preparing to list our home, she personally helped us stage it, offering practical advice on what to fix, declutter, and highlight to make the best impression on buyers. That kind of extra effort made a real difference. We've trusted her with every major real estate decision we've made, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. She's the definition of a realtor who genuinely cares about her clients.

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah is so knowledgeable about the area and was able to help us find options that we didnt even think of. She reminded us of some of the things we had told her we wanted in a new home and helped us find a perfect home! Thank you so much, Sarah!

ZillowVERIFIEDSelling our home was a big deal for us. It wasnt just a house we were putting on the marketaEUR"it was our home, and closing that chapter while getting ready for the next one came with plenty of stress, questions, decisions, and a few headaches along the way. Sarah was there through all of it. What we appreciated most about Sarah was that we always felt like she was working for us. She kept us informed, answered our questions, dealt with issues when they came up, and helped keep things moving when the process wasnt always as simple as we would have liked. There were times when we needed advice, times when we needed answers, and probably a few times when we just needed reassurance that everything was going to come together. Sarah was there for all of it. She also understood that this wasnt simply a transaction for us. Selling this home was part of a much bigger change in our lives, and having someone we trusted helping us through that process mattered. In the end, the house sold, we made it through closing, handed the keys over to the new owners, and started the next chapter of our lives. Looking back on the whole experience, were genuinely thankful Sarah was the person who helped us get there. Sarah, thank you for your patience, your hard work, and for sticking with us from the day we decided to sell until the day it was officially no longer ours. You absolutely earned these five stars, and wed recommend you without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have worked with Sarah on 2 different occasions. Sarah and her team are changing the culture of real estate. Sarahs commitment to her clients is unmatched. We had a difficult situation with the purchase of our new home that would have been catastrophic if any other agent was handling it. She had to work extra hours and handled it with grace. We will only work with Peterka real estate in the future and will recommend this team to family and friends. Thank you Sarah. Your professionalism and friendship will always be appreciated.

ZillowVERIFIEDBuying a home/property is one of life?s biggest investments. But, Sarah Peterka helped my wife and I realize a 40 year dream to live in the Black Hills! The work that Sarah & her team put into this quest was a testament to their passion for helping people see dreams come to fruition! Sarah was the linchpin for this purchase! She was so invested in helping us find the right place, in the best location, she literally wanted it for us, as much as we did! Sarah, THANK YOU! It would not have been as special without YOU!

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah provided professional expertise along with personal touches that exceeded expectations. We were very pleased with communications and their timeliness. Sarah took the needed time for us and helped us navigate the process without ever making us feel pressured or uncomfortable. Sarah?s strategy and timeline for choosing when to hit the market and how long the process would take from beginning to end was spot on. You will not be sorry if you choose to have Sarah represent you on the sale of your home.

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah was amazing and we will seek her out with any real estate ventures in the future! She helped us search for over 5 years to find the right property. What made Sarah so good at her job and to our satisfaction was her ability to encourage us to explore our personal interests and ideas. She had a very strong sense of organizational skills and follow through. She helped us trust our instincts and to be confident in our decision-making. When needed she enabled quick and effective professional guidance and expertise especially in complex or ambiguous situations. Sarah promoted open communication, we could email or text anytime and she would respond quickly. Sarah was very (and I mean VERY) patient with us, she would facilitate collaboration with us by initiating regular meetings. She will actively listen to you and and prioritize your needs. We felt Sarah provided the guidance, support, and resources for us to succeed in our real estate goals. She?s the one!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe chose Sarah Peterka at Keller Williams Realty to help us find our new home in the Black Hills. This was a long process for us over several years and Sarah was steadfast in her support and advice until we found the house we wanted. Once we found the house, Sarah made the offer, inspection, and closing extremely easy. Her knowledge, proactive communication, and timely advice to us made the process of finding a home and buying the home uncomplicated, straight forward and stress free. Sarah is very personable, professional and knows the Black Hills real estate market. We highly recommend Sarah if you are looking for a home in the Black Hills area.

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah was very good to work with. Expert knowledge of the area and latest news. Above and beyond service. Highly recommend her for real estate needs. Helped me buy a lot and worked with me to find a local builder and assisted in the process of the new build. Kept me informed of the process and deadlines. Also put me in touch with a local lender who has been great to deal with also assisting in the new construction loan and process.

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah has been amazing, patient, and knowledgeable. Sarah helped us find a home in Whitewood SD, her area knowledge is unsurpassed. She also helped with selling our house in Whitewood SD when family and work issues needed for us to move again. Sarah took care of every detail. My wife and I are looking to retire back some day, hoping Sarah is around to help us with that transition as well. Thank you Sarah and God Bless!!

Smooth transactions on both sides!

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently had the pleasure of working with Sarah to purchase our new dream home. From start to finish, it was an absolute pleasure! From our initial conversations and throughout the whole process, Sarah was professional. She is highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure we always felt like a priority. Being new to the area and searching for a home was a bit overwhelming. We searched online for a few months and finally decided to look at one in person. I met Sarah through my gym and found out she was realtor at the perfect time. We viewed a potential house with her but we did not feel like it was a good fit for us. She listened to all of our wants and needs, and then made a suggestion once we were stumped. It could not have been more ideal. We instantly fell in love with our current house. Sarah made the buying process so simple and easy. Sarah is an outstanding realtor and really values your feelings through the whole process. She always made sure we knew whats going on at all times and went out of her way to make sure we were always happy. We are so lucky to have found her at the right time! Highly recommend her to anyone looking to call the Black Hills their home.

She has been with us every step of the way from selling our home within one week on the market to helping us find our dream home. She is professional, creative, and incredibly knowledgable on what is happening in the market. She offers exceptional guidance during the whole process. She responds and makes moves quickly, and is beyond supportive during stressful moments! We are blessed to have Sarah on our side during this journey. She is one of a kind and the best there is.

ZillowVERIFIEDIf youre looking to sell your home, you should strongly consider using this team! Beginning to end, this process was seamless, communicative, and as less stressful as possible. This would include working with the administrators, transition coordinator, selling agent, staging agent, title company, and photographer. Not to mention, we sold our property at a value that we thought was fair and the process was speedy. Professional. Thoughtful. Honest. Kind.

We would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, she will not let you down.

We communicated what we were looking for and with her knowledge and wisdom she walked us through many options that we didnt even think about. Very honest at times of offers and values. We always felt that she had our best interest at heart. We will continue to use Sara in the future and will always recommend her. Sara, your a class act!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I used Sarah's expertise to find a more than suitable location to build our next home and also select a wonderful builder! We lived across the State and couldn't have had a more seemless process with her guidance! Do yourself a favor and sign with this gal as she goes up over and beyond for her clients. The entire office is exceptional! Markay walks along side you through this life changing process and will get you all the answers you need. You won't regret working with the Christians group!

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah and the team were great to work with. They know the area and pricing very well. Sarah sent me continued updates on new listings with pictures. She was able to discuss pros and cons of various properties. Also since I was not from the area was very helpful in that respect as to a basic location I was looking for and what was close.

ZillowVERIFIEDSarah helped us purchase our dream lot in the Black Hills. Not only was she patient and listened to us, but she steered us away from making possible mistakes. She kept us informed during the entire process and ensured we took things into consideration that we may not have thought of. Cannot recommend her and the Christians Team enough. They even offered to help us with an easement request. From the first phone call to after closing, they have been professional, knowledgeable, and responsive.

Review for Member: Sarah Peterka
ZillowVERIFIEDOur home sale was pretty thorny - a pre-1895 house on a hill with all the attending quirks. On the other end, the home we were seeking was pretty specific, so both ends of the transaction presented unique challenges. Sarah was patient, listened to our concerns, kept us informed, and negotiated our way to not only a perfect buyer but an ideal new home that fit us perfectly. She made us feel valued and heard and even advised us against making a couple of major mistakes. If we ever move again, we won't be searching for an agent - just a home - because we now have a learned and experienced friend who's got our backs! We can't recommend Sarah and Christian's Team more highly!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I are very up front and like to work with people who are blunt, to the point, and professional. Sarah met all of our criteria. She was able to sell our home in LESS THAN 24 HOURS. She was then able to get us into the house we now live in with ease. She has a great sense of humor and will treat you as a friend and not just a client. I love how up front and to the point she is. We will be using her again in the future and would recommend her to all of our friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDI really cannot say enough good things about Sarah. She is professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated. But this is finely balanced with a good sense of humor, kindness, and most of all, a willingness to listen carefully. This last attribute is unfortunately a rarity these days but was such a nice feature of dealing with Sarah. She has a strong team around her that are extremely competent and professional. My situation was complex for a number of reasons, but Sarah went out of her way to help make this a smooth and very pleasant experience. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a real estate agent in this area of South Dakota. She is a credit to her team and the profession as a whole.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe contacted Sarah about finding us a home at a time that there were very few homes on the market. She went above and beyond and found us a home that had not been officially listed. In the past, I have worked with realtors that made a lot of money without doing much of the work. This was not the case with Sarah. She was on top of her game and found us our perfect home to raise our new little family in. We are so blessed to have had her as our realtor!
