Lisa Carstens - REALTOR 2550 Middle Road, Bettendorf, IA 52722

"I am a Real Estate Broker in Colorado but I am originally from Davenport. My oldest brother who lives in Davenport had a rental property there and it was time for him to be done being a landlord. The house needed a lot of work after years of being a rental and needed to go to an investor who could show it some love. My brother thought he could just put a for sale sign in the yard and sell it on his own. I came home for the holidays and he was so stressed out. He had been doing all of these showings of the house on his own. These investors were trying to beat him up and offering him low ball offers. He was worried he was never going to sell the house. I said “We are calling Lisa Carstens!” He did not think he could afford a Real Estate Broker, I said he couldn’t afford not to have one. The minute we met with Lisa and she started explaining how she would be taking care of everything from here on out, you could see the stress melting off of him. Lisa called me the next day and said she had an investor who was interested, she had the house under contract the very next day. Quick close, cash deal, sold as is, done! Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, she got a very fair price that was way more than her commission. Turns out it does pay to use a Realtor!"

"Lisa Carstens is the best realtor we have ever met! She is honest and very easy to work with. Of the realtors we interviewed, she was the most down-to-earth, “real” person. From the beginning, she was thorough, responsive and very helpful in guiding us through the journey of selling our mother’s house. We never had a problem reaching her – she was always available or quickly responded to us. She went above and beyond the call of duty as we prepared the house for listing, and during the selling process. It seemed more like we were working with our good friend. We live out of state and even with our difficult situation of selling my mother’s home, Lisa was always available and looked over the property with great care, making sure it was prepared and maintained for sale. She fought for our best interests while presenting all of our options. We would definitely recommend that you have Lisa Carstens represent you!"

"I was pretty nervous about being a first time homebuyer, but with Lisa as my realtor I never felt lost or stuck in a lurch. When things came up, she was always available with a quick, knowledgeable answer. She also has a good sense of the market and the area, and with her help, I was able to find the perfect new home for myself at well under what I thought I’d have to pay. I’d definitely recommend Lisa to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!"
