I’ll be honest. Initially I was a bit leery of someone who is a top agent and had so many great reviews. I’m a skeptic by nature. But on my wife’s insistence we decided on Amanda and Julie as our Realtors. Boy, am I happy we did. I could write ad nauseam about how great they were but some of the highlights were: 1) They are so darned quick to respond. 2) They will not sugar-coat things. They will tell you exactly what their professional opinion is. The best part about this is that they are pretty-much dead-on with their assessments, no matter what my gut was telling me....they were right, I was wrong. (Boy that’s tough to admit for me.) 3) They broke down exactly what and how things would happen in the whole process clearly and honestly. There were absolutely no surprises. 4) It doesn’t matter if you are local or out of state (we live in Arizona), they will make you feel like you are their only customer, even though we all know Realtors have to juggle countless “maybe buyers” who have no intention to buy or sell. 5) Their attitude is GREAT. Usually, I do not like dealing with people but it was always a pleasure, and many times fun, to deal with Amanda. 6) Buying or selling a home is a stressful thing. Sometimes it’s more stressful, sometimes it’s less stressful. We have bought and sold numerous times. I do not recall such a low-stress/high dollar situation EVER. Shoot, my trips to the grocery store are higher stress than selling our home was with Amanda’s help. In short, try Amanda as your Realtor....they will not steer you wrong. They will be honest, upfront and responsive. Mostly, they’ll make you feel like their only customer and they will do everything in their power (and then some) to get your home sold or help you find that perfect home in your price range, regardless of your budget.

Congratulations, Kri!
I am so proud that Kri, my Administrative Assistant, is now my Licensed Administrative Assistant! Kri is now officially a Realtor® - Broker/Associate! Kri will continue to be my right hand in the office and we will continue to strive to give you the best and most professional service possible. Many of you have commented to me over the past two years how much you enjoyed working with Kri and NOW she can answer more of your questions – and even show you homes, if you like! Kri will still maintain the office Monday thru Friday. I am so proud to have her as part of my “team”! Through our “real estate boutique” we will strive to keep that personal service that you have shown is important to you and your real estate needs. God continues to bless my life by sending me people like Kri to work with and wonderful clients that allow me to continue my real estate career with the enthusiasm, professionalism and love that has been so important to me over the past 26 years! Thanks, Kri, for all your efforts and for being the wonderful person you are! Together we are going to have an outstanding 2014 (and hopefully many more years)! If you haven’t met Kri, stop and congratulate her…she’s very special! Our Board of Realtors® has another standout member! , Managing Broker/Owner
Thank you for a wonderful 2013,
Char
It was a challenging year but you were loyal clients and friends and we far exceeded my expectations! I love my little Shoppe, I love living and having my business in downtown Bloomington. God has certainly helped me make some good decisions during the last few years of my life. Having lost my daughter to pancreatic cancer in December 2011 and my Mom to old age (she was 95) in July 2013, I turned to real estate and it has filled so many voids and your friendship and business has been so appreciated! I can’t imagine not doing something that I love so much.

To All our PAsT And PrEsEnT CliEnTs, A Big
THAnk you
For your BusinEss. WE WisH you A HAPPy & ProsPErous nEW yEAr! We had tried twice before to sell our home unsuccessfully and had some bad experiences with the realtors, when we decided to contact Cindy Eckols at Prudential to try and sell it. Cindy and her daughter came to our home and met with us. The pictures were taken that day and were the best that had been taken by anyone. The attention to detail was greatly appreciated. Our home was sold within 10 days of being listed and great thanks goes to Cindy for putting in a long weekend and keeping in contact with us to get the deal made. We are now in the process of buying another home closer to Chuck’s work and we are so thankful to Cindy and her team for making this possible.
Wendy and Chuck Wilburn We have used Cindy twice to purchase homes. Cindy and her entire team have been absolute professionals and the entire process went about as smoothly as we could have hoped for! They made the purchasing process a true pleasure and I would recommend Cindy and her team to anyone.

Ed and I would like to thank you for starting and then bringing the sale of the farm to an agreeable closing. Cindy, you made this all happen so I could be a part of passing the farm on. THANK YOU! What a joy it is to see it all come together. Courtney and you have always been helpful and answered my many calls to you. Many thanks for being their whenever I needed some answers.
Louise Beasley Thank you to Cindy Eckols and Courtney Mammenga, office manager, for their excellent service with the sale of our office and beautiful old home.
