If you're a pre-approved first-time buyer in Eastern Iowa, you have days — not weeks — to claim $35,000 from the state.

Iowa just opened a new round of down payment assistance. Up to $35,000 toward your first home.

But the funding will be gone before most buyers even hear about it.

Who can actually win this:
— You have a lender pre-approval letter already (or can get one in 24-48 hours)
— You haven't owned a home in the last 3 years
— You're buying in Linn, Benton, Jones, Iowa, Johnson, or Washington county (not in Cedar Rapids, Marion, or Fairfax)
— Your household income is under the county limit

Funds reserve only after pre-approval letter + signed purchase agreement. No pre-approval, no spot.

Comment "HOME" below and we'll DM you the 5-minute eligibility check. If you're not pre-approved yet, we'll connect you with a lender who can do it in 24-48 hours.

A few months ago, these buyers found themselves stuck between chapters.

Their lake home had sold.
The clock was ticking.
And the plan they thought they had… fell apart.

So they made a 3-hour drive to Cedar Rapids the very next day hoping to find the right place to land. 🚗

What stood out most to us was hearing they had called four different Realtors… and we were the only ones who called them back.

Last week, we officially closed on this NE Cedar Rapids condo. 🏡

Now they’re closer to family, closer to the airport for their Florida trips, and excited for this next chapter of life.

Real estate is never just about property. It’s about transitions, timing, trust, and helping people feel taken care of during important moments in life.

To our amazing clients, thank you for trusting us to help guide you through this journey. We’re so excited for you both. 🙏

When clients trust us to help them successfully sell not just one home, but two homes within just a few months… that means everything to us. 🙏

Earlier this year, we had the opportunity to help these amazing sellers sell their custom ranch home in SE Cedar Rapids. Today, we officially closed on their SW Cedar Rapids home as well. 🏡

This home received multiple offers, sold over asking price, and was under contract in just 48 hours. But results like that are never just luck.

It’s weeks of preparation, strategy, marketing, communication, planning, and making sure every detail is positioned the right way before the home ever hits the market.

We never take that kind of trust for granted.

Every home deserves more than just being “put on the market.”
Every client deserves a system, a plan, and a process designed to create the best possible outcome, whether that means a stronger price, smoother experience, faster timeline, or less stress throughout the process.

That’s something we take seriously every single time.

To our amazing sellers, thank you again for trusting us through another successful sale. We truly appreciate it. 🤝

The lower level walks out to a concrete patio, giving you additional outdoor space and flexibility for how you want to use it.

Attached 2 car garage plus a 16×24 detached garage with its own driveway for a workshop, hobby space, or extra parking. That kind of setup is hard to find.

Located near Jefferson High School with quick access to I-380, Highway 30, downtown Cedar Rapids, the medical corridor, shopping, and more.

Most buyers think they're ready. They're not.

After 35 years in this business, We've watched the same 5 mistakes cost people the home they wanted — sometimes by days, sometimes by hours.

This isn't a list of tips you've seen a hundred times. This is what actually happens when you skip the basics and hope it works out.

You won’t find another home in this price range with this much to offer.

Most homes at this price come with compromises—less square footage, smaller lots, limited privacy, and almost no outdoor amenities.

1685 Mackenzie redefines what buyers can expect, with so much value packed into one property. At $575,000, you’re getting 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, over 4,200 finished square feet, and an oversized 4+ car garage, all set on nearly an acre at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac.

This property delivers mature trees, a serene pond, a screened-in porch, a half basketball court, a putting green, and a maintenance-free deck—amenities that simply don’t come together at this price point.

A rare and one-of-a-kind opportunity that combines space, privacy, and lifestyle at a value you won’t find anywhere else.

Message us or call us at 319-431-5859 for your private showing.
