My fiance and I were recommended to Susie by our lending agent because of her experience with the Iowa Finance Authority grant programs. We are SO happy we followed up on his suggestion! As first time home buyers, we greatly appreciated her no-nonsense approach. She didnt sugar coat things and wasnt afraid to give her honest opinion on issues that popped up in homes we toured. This allowed us to fully trust her throughout the process and made us that much more confident to put an offer in when we found the one. She worked with a FSBO seller and didnt skip a beat in securing our home. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!
I would highly recommend Susie. We hired her to work with us on an estate sale for my dads house. She was responsive and help us to sell the house quickly when four other houses on the block were listed for sale in the same week.
I have purchased 5 homes from Susie Sheldahl in the last 4 years. I have also sold 2 of those homes with Susie. She is on-top of everything and I dont need to worry about anything. She knows the Des Moines and surrounding area like the back of her hand. Its worth every penny to have her manage all of the inspections and closing activities. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get top dollar for the sale of their home or for getting a good buyer that has pre-approved credit to purchase your home
Susie is on of the best agents out there. She is very knowledgeable and straight forward. She sold my home in less then 2 months during the holidays and helped me find the perfect home for my family. Shes pretty funny too.
Susie was AMAZING to work with! Finding our perfect home was so easy thanks to her! We were first time home buyers and we are SO happy we decided on the perfect realtor. She is so knowledgeable. Plus, shes down to earth! I recommend her to anyone in the market to buy or sell their home!
We recommend Susie all the way for a real estate agent. She took the time and answered all are questions witch we had a thousand of them. She tried to get us the best deal working with bankers going well beyond what was needed as a real estate agent. We wanted to locate in a good area and kept changing are mind, telling her we wanted to look at this house and then decide that was not the one for us after she had already set a time to show us. She stuck with us all the way through everything paper work and all. If you want an awesome real estate agent to work with go with Susie. She is totally AWESOME.
Susie was so helpful when we bought our first home, she answered every question we had, she was great communicating with us, would respond fast, she got things done, I highly recommend Susie to help you find a home or sell a home . Ill be contacting her when I move again! And shes the sweetest!
Excellent! answered all my questions, very responsible!! She was great help on my second home! Thank you Susie. Looking forward to work with you again.
Susie is the most fantastic realtor that I have ever met! I had so many problems finding the perfect house, but Susie was so great at showing me literally every single house that could potentially work for us. Finally we got the perfect house for us in which they cancelled 11 other showings for the next day so that we could buy the house. Susie was never pushy-- She always showed us things in every house that would need fixed or that were inconvenient, which saved us from making many bad purchases. She would also tell us when houses were overpriced or not worth it. She genuinely wanted us to find the perfect house and she would do anything to rearrange her schedule to show us houses. And the biggest thing ever is that she was so so patient with us and with my mother who constantly called her and made her life very difficult. And an extra bonus is that Susie is so much fun to be around and she turned into a really great friend.
Susie is a pleasure to work with. She sold our house and represented us on the new one we purchased. It was a great experience with her and would highly recommend her!
Susie was very easy to work with. Very responsive with any questions I had. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a new home. She was prompt on getting answers we had. She was very professional.
Susie is top notch! I will never go with another realtor for any reason other than Susie from here on out. I had a terrible experience as a first time homebuyer, and Susie could not have been more available, more helpful, more positive, she put me in touch with all the best people, and helped walk me through everything! Susie turned what could have been an even bigger mess into a huge plus! With her help and guidance, I successfully came out on top with everything, and found a house that suits me far better. I would highly recommend her to everyone and anyone. You would be hard-pressed to find anyone harder working and a bigger fighter for you than her! She is the best! Give her a try, you will see for yourself!

If you want to buy a house, you gotta go with Susie. She is a very kind, knowledgeable and professional with the work she does. The market has its ups and downs but she will stick with you until the end. If she hadnt been my agent, I probably would have ended up renting again and dealing with another landlord. But that wasnt the case, she helped me find a great house in a great area that literally met all my needs. Im very sure she can help you too. Id give her 10 stars, but they only have 5 on here so I guess that works. Thanks again, Susie, you rock.
Susie Herselius is a great negotiator. Ive purchased 5 houses from Susie in the last year (2014 and 2015) and she is knowledgeable, available and gets the closings done fast. I would not use any other realtor after working with Susie. I can always get a hold of her, ask questions and she is always looking out for the sellers or buyers depending upon who is hiring her. Susie is professional and her attention to detail make her a super realtor. Call her, she is the best.
Susie helped me out tremendously. I didnt think I would get approved for a mortgage because I already had 1. I told her my situation and she set me up with Nathan Olson who got me approved. She found me exactly what I was looking for and went out of her way alot for me. Definitely would use her again!
We recently purchased a home with Susie Herselius. We were first time home buyers and she helped us through every step. She was efficient and effective throughout our entire buying process. Highly recommend Susie for all your home buying needs!
Susie assisted my recently widowed father-in-law in selling his house. She is very professional. She makes herself available, has the knowledge to answer questions or find available resources. She even went out of her way to assist us in setting up a sale to downsize from his house of 50+ years to an apartment. She and her children personally assisted with the sale. She has been so kind to him even after the sale. All this and he got a fair price for his home, which sold shortly after being on the market. I would highly recommend her as a realtor.
Susie was awesome in finding the perfect home for me. I was very specific in what I was looking for and she went endlessly looking for my needs.Thanks Susie
On top of the already stressful process of buying a home, we were doing so for the first time. Susie was not only there to answer all of our questions, she was also very good at getting things done. Through every step of the process she was vital, from providing general advice to making the right calls at the right times. Her previous experience with the financing process proved invaluable in our decisions, and also gave us a noticeable edge when dealing with the banks. I cant imagine the process going any smoother without her willingness to contact the right people and ask the right questions. I cant say that buying a home is easy, but I can say that Susie made it ten times easier than it could have been. I would recommend her because throughout the process she had my families best interest in mind and that made all the difference. If you are looking for a realtor to be in your corner, I would recommend her wholeheartedly. You would be hard pressed to find a realtor who will go to bat for you the way that she did so for us.
Susie was essential to our process of buying a house. She was readily available and was even able to work with my screwy schedule. She answered my multiple phone calls with kindness and even more importantly with expertise. She showed us several houses and walked us through all of the details when we decided to purchase one. I highly recommend her and would suggest that if you need to buy or sell a home that you give her a call.
