Tom did a great job advising my mother and me on the sale of her property. He knew how long she had lived there, that I had grown up there and the history of our family, so his advice and patience were very much appreciated.

Tom Kruse was outstanding in helping me sell a rental house. He was so helpful in evaluating the value of the house and its market potential. His knowledge of the house's history and the surrounding area was well researched and made my decision a winner. Tom was excellent in every step of the process from first evaluation, handling potential buyers and closing the sale.

I highly recommend Tom Kruse's services.

Tom changed my expectations of what services and value a realtor can provide. Tom provided excellent guidance throughout the sale of our property. He listened to our needs and wants and presented options to meet both. Tom goes the extra mile and works as your advocate with any contractors you enlist to make any needed repairs. He even took the time to reset our thermostat at the property to save us a 45 minute drive. If you are looking for a realtor who simplifies the buying or selling of your property, Tom is your best pick. He took the pressure off the sale of our house and always made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. We will definitely work with Tom in the future.

Tom helped my elderly mother sell her condo. She had to move in with me, her daughter, due to health issues. My mom is 90 years old and does not travel well. He went out of his way to come to my house to get documents signed and explain the process to her. He did a wonderful job. The sell went smoothly and I definitely recommend him.

Tom assisted me in selling my first home! Couldn't have asked for a smoother experience. He walked me through every step of the way and made it super easy. He explained every process simply and clearly. Whenever I called him with questions or concerns he picked up right away. I will use him again when I'm looking to buy or sell another home and I would highly recommend you do the same.

Wow can’t believe it’s been 4 years since selling our home in St. Louis. Tom Kruse and Merri Kruse were a great team to work with. They helped walk us through our first experience of selling a house.
If you’re looking for a realtor in the St. Louis area I highly recommend them. Hard to believe since then we’ve bought 2 other houses and sold one more. 🤣

Tom was great right from the start! We were excited to look at a house and was referred to Tom and the Kruse Team through a family member. When Tom shows you a house, he is using his vast construction/building knowledge to inspect the house as we all go from room to room. Tom was always very prepared and if we asked for some additional information, he always came through. I would suggest reading through the emails that Tom sends also. There are two kinds, one being listings that fit your search criteria, and the second being informational articles about the process of home buying. These emails allowed me to have the proper questions so that I could be prepared to battle at the bank to get the best loan.

Tom had suggestions for everything we needed throughout the entire process, from places for the loan, inspectors, kitchen remodelers, and many others.

In summary, Tom made this complicated process much easier and saved us time by showing us houses that fit our needs and made sure those houses were in good, sound condition to protect us down the road.

I would like to Thank Tom & Merri Kruse at Berkshire Hathaway Realty for assisting me in the sale of my home at 104 Hilltop Ct Foley Mo. They were on top of it from day 1. They were very helpful in knowing were to set the price & in explaining everything in good detail on everything that i needed to know when it come to getting it listed & on the market, they took a lot of nice photos of the home & even scheduled a drone photo shoot to be done from the outside of the property & all throughout the inside as well, they were good about letting us know ahead of time on the scheduled showings so we had time to get our kids ready & out of the house & figure out where we were going to go & what we were going to do for the day while that was going on. I would like to give them both a big thumbs up for assisting us in getting our house sold it a timely fashion.
