"Iris was a great help to us in selling our home on Cottage Grove Rd, when we retired and relocated to Tennessee. She provided staging and professionally taken pictures to use in the sale. When we had the open house, we had two offers and sold our house for the asking price within one week of the house being listed. We were very pleased with how hard Iris worked to make everything easy for us. Thank you, Iris"

  -Amanda MacMiller, Client

"We feel so very thankful to have Iris as our realtor. She was perfect in every way. Watching HGTV we know a lot about the present trends in buying and selling homes. We had a very well built home but it was about 45 years old. She recognized the true value of our home and did everything she could to help us present it properly. She was always professional, positive, creative, intuitive, and understanding during these really hard times with the delays of the Covid. She did a very impressive job of presenting our home and selling it quickly. She was practical, honest and fair in the selling negotiations. We give her the highest recommendation possible."

  -Dave and Kathy Granquist, Client

"Iris truly is a God-send! We are compatible in many ways outside the real estate aspect of our relationship. I have been listed for over a year now (I did for sale by owner for ten months) and have reached near total burnout so many times. But Iris is always there, encouraging me and tolerating my fussing and whining. She listens patiently and never tries to push me into doing more than I am able to at the moment. She is convinced that we will sell my condo and has done everything she can to help me achieve that goal."

"Iris stuck with us, always ready to respond, be supportive and honest, for over 4 years! We finally found a home we hope to stay in permanently, and we sold our previous Madison home for an amazing price, much over asking. Iris knows her business so so well but also is an empath who cares deeply about her clients.

"Iris was the kind of realtor who went above and beyond what we expected when we listed my mother's house with her. She managed all the buyer's requests for us. She worked with the contractors to ensure any necessary corrections were done correctly. At one point, she was in the rafters to ensure she understood what the contractor was saying! She tastefully staged our empty house so it looked warm and welcoming. Iris' superpower is her ability to be very good at calming down any nervous energy. My husband and I have bought and sold many houses and Iris is by far the best in her business. I would highly recommend her. She is also a great resource for service recommendations in the Madison area. She was very happy to help."

  -Mike and Donna Leckwee, Client

"We chose Iris to list our home because she has the expertise and professionalism required for a more complex transaction. From the beginning, she demonstrated exceptional communication, attention to detail, and a calm, confident presence that made a challenging process feel manageable. Our property had unique features — including a premium lot and a finished basement — in a neighborhood where true comparables simply didn’t exist. We needed an agent who could skillfully position these features, highlight our upgrades, and justify a higher asking price. Iris did exactly that. Her marketing strategy was thoughtful, targeted, and clearly designed to maximize our return. Because we were relocating out of state, achieving top dollar was essential. We also needed a later closing to align with the timing of our move. Iris understood this immediately and guided us with steady reassurance and a clear, strategic plan. Thanks to her expertise, we sold our home at the price we needed and were able "

She also exemplified excellent communication and negotiation skills, and was ethical through out each encounter. She knew my preferences and really worked FOR me. I’d use her services and expertise again! Highly recommend!"
