Tell Us Your Story

From Google Reviews: From our first meeting of figuring out what we wished for in a home to handing us the keys, Shari has been there.

She has been there to calm our nerves and be excited with us(or more than us). Shari made sure the details that mattered to us, mattered to her. Could not be more blessed. Thank you for everything you do Shari! -Haley July 2023

From Google reviews: We met Shari at an open house when we were just getting started with the home buying process.

Shari asked about us and what we were looking for and on the very same day, established a search on the MLS within our specific parameters. She recommended an outstanding local lender and away we went! Three days later, we were under contract with the exact home we wanted. Shari is a very thorough and prompt communicator. She actively listened to us and what we wanted and provided us with the guiding and informed knowledge we needed. We consider Shari an expert in the Des Moines, IA real estate market. You won’t find a better real estate agent!

From Google reviews: I recently worked with Shari to sell my Mother's house as she transitioned into a retired community.

I found Shari via Google and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, thorough and considerate. She understood the challenges we had with me being quite a distance away, and was accommodating to our situation to make it easier for us to sign documents and make decisions. She was very helpful in finding help to resolve issues and did great research to get us a great price. We sold the house for way more than we expected and for less time (we got an offer the first day we showed the house). I highly recommend Shari!

from Google reviews: Shari Keen is absolutely fabulous!

We met her at an open house and loved her energy, positivity, and approachability so much that and we asked her to represent us during our home search in Waukee. She has a great handle on the current market to offer guidance on negotiating an offer. She is a great communicator and kept us updated on the process, what and why items were needed at various stages, and even provided helpful reminders on the Waukee Canopy offerings and where/when to get utilities started. From the date we met her to when we closed on our new home was 1 month and she made it easy and seemless. We highly recommend her. October 2023

from Google reviews: I recently had the privilege of working with Shari to sell my townhome.

Shari did such a wonderful job with the listing; it was only on the market for a couple of days and went for asking price. Shari definitely knows the real estate business, I would hire her again and again. She was able to answer all of my questions, get any information that I needed and is fun and personable to work with. Her ability to communicate with the other agent and guide me through the decision making process made the process much easier than I had thought possible. I highly recommend Shari Keen, she pays attention to detail, is prompt and looks out for her clients best interest. She has a great style and is a natural!

From Google reviews: Shari was incredible from the start right down to the closing.

We started talking to Shari about selling the townhouse in 2020, but weren't quite ready at that time. She stayed on top of the comps for our neighborhood and would check in every so often to let us know what had changed and what her recommendations were, based on our situation. Once we decided we were ready to sell in March 2022, she was on top of everything that needed to be done and was able to answer all questions. Everything she does is in a very timely fashion. She was honest, respectful and we had a lot of fun working with her. She was very much in tune with our needs for our specific circumstances. After the closing was completed, she even drove the check from the sale of my house to me at work, so that I had it immediately. I most certainly will go to Shari again when I am ready to buy my next home and would recommend her to anyone needing to buy and/or sell a home.

From Google reviews: My husband and I could not have been happier with the support we got from Shari while searching for our first house together.

Shari was extremely knowledgeable, communicative, and receptive to our needs. We opted to purchase a home that we knew was going to be a huge renovation project, and Shari had a great vision for what it could become. Highly, highly recommend!

"Shari Keen is a FANTASTIC realtor. If we could give her more than 5 stars we absolutely would. For background, my fiance and I were looking for a new home in Winterset for our family. We were new to the area, and not completely familiar with the home buying process. Shari was very knowledgeable about the entire process, she did research on the town we were moving to and was very informative. She answered our many questions we had, and if she didn’t know an answer to one of our questions, she would find it and get back to us VERY quickly. Shari was always available whenever we had questions and made the process stress-free for us. She was so incredibly patient with us and always reassured us whenever any concerns came up. She truly “held our hand” throughout the process. If you’re looking for someone who is readily available, helpful, knowledgeable, personable, and patient, Shari is the one for you. She genuinely takes interest in you as a person and not just as a “transaction”. I have nothing but great things to say about her. We will most definitely be using her in the future for our buying/selling needs!"

"Shari is exactly who anyone wants in their corner as a realtor. No matter the time of day or day of the week, you will know she’s working hard and is always ready for a call or text. As a first time home buyer, I was nervous to begin the process and worried that my questions would be too much. Shari was so patient, detailed and thoughtful and immediately calmed any of my prior worries. If you hit what feels like a roadblock, she can navigate you back to the happy path with answers, referrals or experience. Thanks to Shari I am now in my desired location and desired home!"

"We used Shari when buying our first home in 2020 and had a great experience! She was friendly, very patient with our many questions, and prompt through whole process. We enjoyed working with her and definitely recommend choosing Shari as your realtor!Update: We also decided to use Shari again to purchase our first investment property in 2023. She was very patient as my husband looked at several properties in varying states of disrepair, and we appreciated her willingness to show homes of all kinds. I think our purchase may have been the first of it's kind of her, as it was for us, so we appreciated her willingness to work with us as we muddled through through the technicalities of making the right offer for the financing we had in place."

"Shari was 1000% the perfect realtor to guide us through our home buying/building process. She brings a focused, but calming, presence to a process that can get quite stressful. She was a huge help coordinating all the steps (and there are A LOT) with the builder and their various teams. Cannot recommend her highly enough!"

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Shari as the Listing Agent for our acreage, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. From the very beginning, she was polite, responsive, and consistently professional in every interaction.What truly stood out was her deep knowledge of the local real estate market. She understood the nuances of selling acreages and provided clear, confident guidance throughout the process. As buyer preferences began shifting toward viewing homes through open houses, Shari quickly adapted her strategy to align with these trends. Her proactive approach helped maximize visibility and interest in our property.Her responsiveness made communication easy and stress-free, and her professionalism gave us complete peace of mind.If you’re looking for a Realtor who knows the real estate market inside and out and treats every listing with care and dedication, Shari is an outstanding choice. We highly recommend her!"
