Stephanie Perkins is really second to none in all aspects of real estate and I wouldn't recommend anyone else! She connected me to an off market property that was coming back on the market. Once the property went back on the MLS we immediately put in an offer, unfortunately someone else also put in...
We couldn't have asked for a better agent. Stephanie was patient, thorough, responsive, professional and had our best interests at heart from start to finish. Relocating from another state presented a few challenges. However, Stephanie was with us every step of the way. Her response time to our...
We're not giving Chrissie 5 stars because she was referred by a close family friend (coincidentally also a ReMax realtor) and we're not giving her 5 stars to be kind. Chrissie flat out EARNED her 5 star rating.
My husband's mother passed away unexpectedly and the emotional task of selling her home...
Definitely helped us with locating the perfect house. Listened to us and what we were looking for and what areas we would like the best. Also has been a great help with setting up things while we are delayed with our move.
I worked with Sheila a few years ago to purchase my home and she was the absolute best. And this year I worked with her on the other side of the process selling my home and she is the same amazing agent with whatever you're working with her on. On our first meeting she very simply and clearly...
Stephanie was a complete joy to work with! She was on top of everything that came our way and communicated everything thoroughly and promptly. As we were buying a house while living in another state, that process can sometimes be stressful. Not so with Stephanie. We were in good hands! We...

Stephanie was GREAT!!! Her knowledge and experience made the home buying process smooth and easy. She is quick to respond and prioritizes her clients. Stephanie made shopping for a home fun and stress free. We couldn’t have asked for better, more dedicated realtor!
Stephanie is such an amazing realtor! She helped us every step of the way finding our dream home! She’s an Idaho native so she’s incredibly knowledgable about the area, which is very helpful!!! She’s prompt and realizable, always willing to take the call. We wanted to buy in the country and she...

Stephanie is very personable. She has the ability to connect with you, and make you feel comfortable. She knows the Boise area in and out. She will always respond quickly and politely. Overall, the best realtor I have ever had.
Sheila helped us get our house sold with us being in another state, something I took on with trepidation. She was able to guide us through what improvements would help our home be it's most inviting and ready to welcome a new family. Sheila is personable, wise, and professional.
She has an amazing...
Stephanie is the epitome of “on top of it”! She was absolutely amazing throughout this entire process and was able to find me a home (an off market, “for sale by owner” home) in a beautiful area where I never thought I’d be able to afford a home! She was on top of the seller the whole time, and...
Amazing agent!! Stephanie help me find the perfect place in the perfect location for me. Just moved back to Boise and she was wonderful at showing me around. She has such integrity and is connected to some of the best people in the industry! We had fun looking at homes in several areas and she...
