Testimonials

"Dick and I were very impressed with the way you handled the purchase of our first house three years ago. I told him one day that I didn't understand why you kept in touch with us when we were never going to need your services again. What a laugh that turned out to be! Not only did we buy a house through you, we also sold our old house through you! When I called you and asked to see a house that was listed, you asked if we were interested in buying. I said "No, we just want to see it." I don't know who was more surprised when we bought it- you or us! But there was one big obstacle- we had to sell our old house! Your assistant Mandy came out on Friday and took pictures, put together a brochure and took it to several other real estate offices in Rapid City. On that monday we had two showings and the second couple bought it! It never was officially on the market- no for sale sign in front, nothing! We were so please that yo worked so hard to get our old house sold. And you kept on working after the contracts were signed to be sure everything was progressing as it should. We were able to move things into the new house before closing at no additional cost to us, thats to you. And you recommended some young men who would move the heavy furniture for us since Dick and I were not able to do it this time. They did a great job for us! So yu can still keep in touch with us whenever you want to, but I know if we ever need a realtor again, you'll be the one we call!" Dick and Coke Helmstetter

"Judy was there every step of the way. She listened to what we wanted for our home and was always ready and willing to answer all questions we had and show us any homes we were interested in. This was our first home purchase and Judy made the experience stress free and effortless. Because of her hard work within two weeks of looking we found our home and had our offer accepted. Before we knew it, we were all moved in! Even after papers were signed, Judy has veen there, ready to answer any questions or concerns. My husband and I would strongly recommend working with Judy." Matt and Natalie Bergendahl

"The only word to describe the realtor services provided by Judy is EXCEPTIONAL. Several of the specific services that meant the most were, 1) we told her exactly what type of home, area, price range and she only sent houses that matched our criteria. 2)whenever we called her with questions concerning the home inspection, title insurance, closing and so on, she always had a helpful answer and when she wasn't in the office, she always returned our call before the end of that business day. 3) she made buying a home over the internet a lot less stressful. I recommend to anyone moving to this area that Judy would be the realtor for them if they want the best!"

"Judy was great. She went the extra mile to find the perfect home for me. I would recommend her to anyone!" Andy Karns

"Thank you Judy and Mandy! With a death in our family during the holiday season, one of the time sensitive issues was the arrangement of the sale of our mother's home and a call was made to Judy. Judy was very sensitive to the conditions under which she was called. She took some initial information and made an appointment at our convenience. When she arrived she was most professional. She had a CMA already prepared, answered all of our questions and assured us she would assist us in any way needed. Judy and Mandy always made themselves available when questions arrose and answered them completely to our satisfaction and did so quickly. Having been a real estate agent myself, I really appreciate the hard work and professionalism of Judy and Mandy. They far exceeded my expectaions. Without hesitation, I recommend Judy to anyone considering selling or buying a home. Thanks again Judy and Mandy- You are the best!"

"Judy Rohde and Mandy Gossman are the greatest sales people. Very helpful in every aspect of the sale.....very helpful and friendly, great people!"

Bob and Arlene Ginter

"I have had the distinct pleasure to do business with Judy in the past and again just recently with the sale of my investment properties. Judy took the time to find out my needs and make excellent suggestions in listing my properties and within a week we had a strong, acceptable offer for both properties. Judy helped me every step of the way making the sale convenient and effortless for me and my tenants. Judy is and has always been a pleasant and vibrant person to work with and I would and have referred her to anyone wanting a competent and hard working Realtor."

Darcey Kingrey

"My wife and I have bought and sold numerous properties over the years, with many different agents. Judy Rohde is at the top of our list for real estate professionals. We wish we could take her with us to every location. She is extremely pleasant, very aggressive in a professional results driven way, and very detail oriented. Through two complicated transactions she handled for us, on the sell side, she did a terrific job finding qualified buyers. Then she kept our interests at the forefront, and kept both deals moving through closing. I practice law, and it was a luxury to have someone else protecting my interests and working through the details"

Dan Burns

It took only 3 weeks for Judy to sell our house. I was kept up to date at all showings and transactions from start to finish on paper and by phone calls. I was happy with the outcome and I would hire Judy again. Highly Recommended!

"Judy always does a wonderful job for us! She has what it takes to get the job done!"

Jane Schwab

We bought our lst home with Judy in March of 2003. She worked with us from the day we were preapproved at the bank until she handed us the keys to our new home. We had no idea what was to be expected. She explained in full detail to us what was going on. There are no words to describe how great she was to us and our children during our experience. We will recommend Judy to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home!

James & Angela Fultz

"We have known Judy Shafer Rohde for many years. We met her when we were having trouble selling a house. We released the Realtor we listed the house with, and began to look around for another Realtor. We had heard great things about Judy and decided to give her a try. We have since bought and sold three houses all with the help of Judy. We appreciate her assistant Mandy as we always get to talk to a real person. They both make you feel like you are their only client and we really like that. If and when we sell and buy again you bet we will call Judy at The Real Estate Center of Rapid City."

Steve and Ilene Bresher

I can't begin to thank you enough for all the wonderful help you gave us during the purchase and closing on our house. We bought the house sight unseen with your help and great pictures! We were in Texas for the winter and unable to come back for the closing. You stayed on top of everything to insure the closing went smoothly. And your great help did not stop with the closing- you took care of getting the rental checks to us (the previous owner's rented it back from us). In November you called to remind us to file and important tax document to save us money on our taxes. We have bought and sold a lot of houses but no real estate agent has worked so hard for us as you have! I can't begin to tell you how much we appreciated your efforts! Thank you so much for all your hard work!

Coke Helmstetter

"Judy was wonderful through every step of my home buying experience. She is very knowledgeable about Rapid City and every aspect of the real estate industry. I would recommend Judy to both first time buyers and experienced buyers."

Lisa Slowinski

Judy Rohde's extraordinarily high professional ethics, hard work, and attention to detail made finding and closing on my first income property an enjoyable process. Judy's interpersonal communication skills were important with every seller that we approached. She listened to my financial goals then helped me to analyze each prospective property for cash-flow and profitability. Judy and Mandy were very gracious and friendly from beginning to end. I was 100% satisfied with Judy Rohde as my Realtor and will be a repeat customer!
