I recently purchased a piece of property and Kim was so patient and available throughout the process. If neither of us were sure about an item, Kim would jump in and do the research! We both learned a lot, I couldn’t have done it without her assistance!

From the beginning Kim was highly motivated to sell our home. Kim did an excellent job getting the ball rolling and guiding us through the process as well as helping determine an appropriate selling price, which was difficult in our case due to location and lack of comps. Although we listed in the “off season”, Kim was extremely positive, continuously checked in with us regarding MLS viewing activity and held open houses routinely, up to and to include every weekend near the end. As well as selling our home, Kim was enlisted to assist with the purchase of our new home. Kim listened to our needs as it related to our new home, was extremely flexible when we changed our minds from a lake home to a suburban setting and made our time a priority when showing us homes. Through out the process, Kim was available when we had questions or needed assistance or clarification and in the end was sitting with us at the table for our closing. I highly recommend Kim and would use her without hesitation if I find myself in the need of a realtor in the future.

Sometimes in our buying experience, there is a person who sincerely enjoys his/her job and wants to share that with others. Barry Meyers is such a person. He and his wife, Pam, are able to take the angst out of selling and the apprehension out of buying with sensitivity and close attention to their client's specific needs. Being from another state, Mr. Meyers was very knowledgeable on merging his knowledge of the state he represents as well as the state anyone else may be from, which in turn makes the whole transaction for both parties more enlightened. I'm not sure I even know the depth of protection he was employing on my behalf, but I could trust his his integrity. How refreshing!

We cannot recommend Kim Zirbel highly enough! From start to finish, she was the consummate professional—creative, communicative, and incredibly skilled at multitasking. She guided us through both the sale of our home and the purchase of a new one, making what could have been a stressful process feel seamless and even enjoyable.

Her ability to market our home was nothing short of impressive. She knew exactly how to showcase its best features, leveraging her creativity and expertise to attract the right buyers quickly. Thanks to her strategic approach, we sold our home faster than we expected and at a price we were thrilled with.

On the buying side, Kim was patient, knowledgeable, and always one step ahead. She truly listened to our needs and worked tirelessly to find us the perfect home. She kept us informed every step of the way, making sure we felt confident and empowered throughout the process.

What sets Kim apart is her unwavering dedication to her clients. She juggled every detail with ease, always responding promptly and ensuring nothing fell through the cracks. Her professionalism, problem-solving skills, and ability to multitask are unmatched.

If you’re looking for a realtor who will go above and beyond, look no further than Kim Zirbel. She exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful for her guidance and support.

I recently completed a real estate transaction with Barry. I can not recommend Barry enough! He was attentive without being overbearing. His knowledge is off the charts and he provides a relaxed approach. I will be using Barry again in the future and have already recommended to family and friends!

We had a wonderful experience working with Kim on purchasing our home in Idaho. My husband wanted to buy a home without using an agent, but I pushed him to use an agent given that you don't know what you don't know when it comes to buying a home. We met Kim by happenstance when she showed us a home we were interested in. She was very professional and knowledgeable and that got my husband to open his eyes to using an agent, and of course we went with Kim. She not only helped us navigate the purchase price on the home we wanted but also helped us get connected with a lender who was also excellent to work with. She was easy to reach and communication was great. She really make the process painless and a pleasure! We highly recommend Kim!

It was a indeed a pleasure working with Barry! He was always available to answer any of our questions. He worked diligently through the entire home buying process for us and was punctual in keeping our needs at the top of the list. There was a chance that we would have lost the opportunity to purchase our home if Barry had not acted quickly in communicating with the seller agent in the late afternoon. I would not hesitate to recommend Barry to any of my friends and/or family.

Barry and his wife Pam worked very hard for us and we had lots of fun finding a beautiful home with their help in Blanchard.

Kim Foster did an incredible job from start to finish, her follow-up to questions as well as information was awesome. I would recommend Kim to anyone.

Kim and Lloyd went above and beyond to help find the right house for my wife and I. She was always available for phone calls and her showings were always very thorough and never rushed. She answered any questions promptly and took extra time to show us the areas and communities in which we were interested. She knows North Idaho very well and I strongly recommend her.

She answered any questions promptly and took extra time to show us the areas and communities in which we were interested. I very strongly recommend her.

After dealing with multiple realtors who were much talk and no walk in what seemed like a hopeless housing market, we finally came across Lloyd and Kim and they turned us long-time renters into very happy first time home owners.
(I was personally skeptical after having dealt with so many realtors, not to mention I believe we were connected with L & K through one of the major online real estate sites)

L & K were never pushy and not once wanted to sell us a home that didn’t fit our needs or worse, a home we clearly couldn’t afford.

They were patient with our needs and budget unlike other realtors we came across and not only that, but seriously went to bat for us when it came to negotiating the home they finally helped us find. And they also walked us through the entire home buying process which as first time home buyers, was so huge and helpful!

We give Lloyd & Kim a 10/10 and have recommended them to any friends/coworkers we know who are also looking for property in this crazy market.

Barry was great. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Everything went very smoothly to purchase our new property.

Kim helped us buy home in Coeur d' Alene Id. She knows the market here extremely well. She was there every step of the way from negotiations to inspections and repairs. She was right on top of counter offers, addendums and made sure all aspects of the sale were complete and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand! If you are planning on purchasing a home give her a call, you will be glad you did!

Barry was an excellent realtor to have. He made the entire process very simple and understanding. Always responded in a timely manner and kept us in the loop the entire time. He was very knowledgeable, and helpful in many aspects. Highly recommend!

Barry did an outstanding job for us. Highly recommend him!

Barry and wife Pam were a great asset in helping us buy a condo in Dover. We are out of state and they kept us abreast of everything that we needed to know in a timely manner and would communicate verbally or via e-mail regularly. They would go to the property to take care of inspections and various things as we were not available to be there. They made us feel very comfortable during the transaction even though we were far from the action.

Barry is very professional and detail oriented. He was excellent with communication. We never wondered what was going on with the process, he kept in close contact. We would use him again. We really appreciated his attention to the details in all of the documents we had to review. He caught small details that may have been overlooked without his experience. Thank you, Barry!

Barry was extremely knowledgeable on our home buying questions. He kept us up to date for every step. Very smooth ho.e buying process! Thanks Barry and Pam! Highly recommend this team.

Kim was absolutely wonderful to work with! Right from the start she was kind, friendly, helpful and started showing me homes I actually wanted to see--she listened to me and followed through during the entire home-buying process. She was extremely knowledgeable about the market, the areas I was looking at, and the overall process. I had confidence the entire time that I was in great hands (and my purchase was across the country!). She made sure that I was well-informed, well-represented, and well-equipped from the beginning to the end. She was proactive, professional and made a very stressful process incredibly seamless and easy. I can't say enough good things and highly recommend Kim as your realtor--you will be so happy you chose to work with her!

Kim Foster was fantastic to work with. She helped us find our new home in Coeur d’Alene and went above and beyond to ensure a smooth process for us. She worked tirelessly and showed she really cared. Kim was very knowledgeable and used her expertise and was always there when needed to guide us through the process. We highly recommend Kim.

Barry was extremely supportive and helpful throughout the entire process of buying our home. On closing day we encountered an unusual problem that threatened to scuttle the entire escrow process. I’m confident that without Barry’s persistence and deep knowledge of the escrow process, we would not have our house today. Furthermore, he’s a very approachable and nice guy.

I HIGHLY recommend Barry to any potential home buyer.

We were fortunate to find Sharon a few months before we wanted to sell our home. This enabled us to take advantage of her great advice to get our home ready to sell. Thanks to her, we cleaned up the outside, de-cluttered the inside and had the house looking great when we listed. Her keen eye for curb appeal and staging helped us get the best value for our home. Thanks Sharon!

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Barry! He was extremely responsive questions, he volunteered to drive to the property to check on things to save us a long trip, and his experience made it the smoothest real-estate transaction I've ever been a part of. Not only is Barry top notch, every one of his contacts that he recommended to us to work with was equally top notch.

We got connected with Kim through zillow when requesting to tour places. She was a blessing for us! She worked extremely hard for us and was great with communication. Whenever we were stressed about the process she was able to keep our mind at ease and we never felt like there was a possibility of us not finding a home. She connected us with great loan officers and inspectors and always had good advice for us when we needed it. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her when we decide to buy another home.
