I felt aware and in control at all time during the process!

I truly appreciated being able to review showing feedback online, and also being notified in a timely fashion, via both email and phone calls, of upcoming showings. I like knowing what is going on and felt aware and in control at all times during the process. Group O'Dell made the sale of my house a very satisfying experience.

I felt like I was your only client!

I felt like I was your only client...and I know that's not true. A couple of very specific examples. When I was buying my first house, you knew you'd have to "sell" it to my dad too. You realized right away that he had little trust of realtors. You helped break that down. When Mark and I bought our current home, Katie showed us the house initially because Dan was busy. When Mark and I showed interest, Dan came back later that day to look at it and give us his opinion, even without us, on his own time.

It was obvious Dan had all the relationships in the city to help us get the work done!

We started working with Dan O'Dell in the fall and discussing our plans. We knew we had a lot of work to do and he was able to outline the reality of our situation in easy to relate to words. At the end of the day it was obvious Dan had all the relationships in the city to help us get the work done that we needed.

The entire team was wonderful throughout. Thank you Group O'Dell!

Mike had his eye on the ball, even while he was on vacation!

The most impressive point was when our “forever” home came on the market, we were the FIRST people to see it. Mike would give us the news personally while he was vacationing that we got our offer accepted. Not many realtors would have done that and it could’ve cost us our amazing home had he not had his eye on the ball even while he was on vacation.
