“Questions We Hear Every Day”
Do I need to be pre-approved before you’ll show me homes?
We don’t require it, but we strongly recommend it. Knowing your number before you walk through a door saves time and puts you in a position to move fast when the right home shows up. We can refer you to local lenders we trust if you need a starting point.How is working with Rachael and Larry different from a typical buyer’s agent?
Most agents are focused on finding you a home that looks good. Rachael looks at what’s behind the walls. With a background in custom home building and remodeling, she can spot construction quality, flag potential issues, and help you understand what a home is actually worth — not just what it’s listed for.How long does the buying process typically take in Sioux Falls?
It depends on the market and your financing. In a competitive market, buyers who are pre-approved and decisive can close in 30–45 days. If you’re less urgent or need a specific type of home, we’ll set realistic timelines upfront so you’re not guessing.What areas do you cover?
Sioux Falls, Harrisburg, Dell Rapids, Hartford, and the greater Sioux Empire. If you’re looking somewhere specific and you’re not sure we cover it, just ask.Can you help me find a home AND build custom if I can’t find what I want?
Yes — that’s actually one of our biggest advantages. If the right home doesn’t exist on the market, we can walk you through what a custom build would cost, what lots are available, and what the timeline looks like. Most agents can’t have that conversation. We can.
Every Home Starts With a Conversation.
“Whether you are building, remodeling, buying or selling – we are here to help.”
