We could have never made the move from Washington State to Iowa without the help of Travis. He did virtual walk throughs for us before we could move, explained EVERYTHING to us as we were first time homebuyers, and made the entire process go so smoothly.
I especially loved that Travis was so patient with me and so so kind as I am definitely the one that’s picky with houses! My husband and I have learned so much about the buying process and absolutely plan on using Travis for our future property purchases.
I am beyond grateful for the recommendation to use Travis and I would recommend ANYONE who wants to purchase/sell a home to use NextHome Beyond.

"Above and beyond" are the words that best describe Travis and Libby. They sold my father's condo for us 3 years ago. When it came time to sell our house this year, we did not hesitate to contact them again. They made the process as smooth and flawless
as possible, providing us with whatever assistance we needed. We highly recommend them!

Our move from Utah to Iowa would have been a nightmare without Travis. He went above and beyond to make sure the process went smoothly for us as first-time home buyers from searching to closing on our dream home. He was not only knowledgeable, attentive,
and communicative but he is a genuine, honest, kind, good person who demonstrated professionalism, integrity, and neighbor-like friendliness. We underwent the entire process virtually and knew we could trust Travis entirely. He not only found the perfect home
for our family, but helped us get settled and connected to the community by providing information and resources as well as dropping off a doormat, plant, and gift basket as soon as we arrived. I have family members who are realtors who have commented on how
rare of a find it was and how lucky we got with Travis. I would give him 10 stars if I could and will recommend him to everyone I know moving to the area.

Travis was AMAZING to work with! He was communicative, efficient, timely, kind, and helpful! Moving across the country without being able to do an on-site tour was stressful, but we were able to put our trust in Travis and the process went smoothly and
professionally. Honestly, working with Travis was the easiest and best part of our cross country move. I couldn’t recommend him enough!!! If I could give him 10 stars, I would! On move in day he even met us and dropped off a gift and toys for my kids! 10/10!
Thank you Travis!

Travis did a great job. Anyone who has made a long distance move knows how many little things fall to your real estate agent that you can't get to when you are on the other side of the country. Travis was with us every step of the way, even getting us
an agent in Arizona to sell our current house!

We are very appreciative of Travis and Libby. My husband and I needed home ASAP and they worked very hard and found us a home that is very close to our dream home. They were very tentative to our needs and went above and beyond to ensure we get the home
to we loved. Upon working with Travis and Libby, you'll quickly learned that they are not in this business for money, instead, they are in it to make families happy by finding them their NextHome. As a first time homeowners, they have made us very happy.

NextHome Beyond (NHB) fulfilled my home buying objectives completely “turnkey” within 10wks, 3days and went far beyond my expectations in customer service, proficiency, user-friendly state-of-the-art technology, real-time communication, and responsiveness.
About mid-August I solicited several leads from a Realtor referral company. Travis Hiatt (NHB Owner) was one of several respondents. His keen listening skills completely embraced my approach and his swift seamless integration of internet-based listings with
my smart-device had set him far ahead of the “pac” and into a league all his own, as far as I was concerned. By the next day I had received electronic listings for my search criteria, made selections for viewing and had multiple showing appointments setup
by Travis for the following day. It felt like I had been plugged into the “Matrix.”
During these first showings I met Travis’ partner Libby Thiltgen. The unprecedented “Ying & Yang.” “Batman & Cat-Woman.” Dynamic dual Real Estate crusaders. Staunch, savvy, astute and extremely witty. Albeit, congenial, charming and charismatic host.
Every week for the next 5 to 8 weeks this cycle of receiving electronic listings for my “learning” search criteria, making selections for viewing and having multiple showing appointments setup by Travis or Libby for the following day or two. Showings were averaging
4 to 6 per week. I began to feel like I was working with “Tommy Lee Jones” and we were looking for “Harrison Ford.” Because with Libby and Travis, based on my learning search criteria, their learning as well and our accumulating total of property showings
we must have seen every “farm-house, hen-house, road-house, and out-house” within a 50mi radius of Cedar Rapids. And yes, that was my criteria too.
Travis and Libby were unwavering, undeterred and relentless in pursuit of achieving my real estate property goals and me purchasing my “dream home.” During weeks 5 to 7 the time between the listing’s “day-1” and our showing was reduced dramatically thus allowing
our “buy” offer to be placed much higher, if not first for the “Seller’s” consideration. Although “timing” is not a panacea, but if and when your price-range and amenities are found it will become the ultimate determinant.
Although the elation of receiving notification of our offer accepted for the incredibly remarkable property the day after showing and between week 6 and 7 of our total (10wk, 3day) engagement there were still about 3 to 4 weeks ahead before “closing.” There
was no break in the action. We had captured the elusive “Fugitive,” but now the “MATRIX” was in High-gear!
Heading towards “Closing” Libby and Travis became like extremely attentive “wedding planners” accounting for, checking and rechecking every intimate detail. They were deeply engaged with my mortgage lender and provided oversight on my behalf. Almost daily,
I was kept informed and updated regarding the process and proceedings. On the day of “Closing” they made me feel like I was the “Bride.”

man. We are so glad that we have him onboard...

We've worked with Travis for three different moves now. He found and sold our first and second homes, as we build our third and "forever home." Every single sale, both on the buy and sale side has been so smooth when working with him. He has truly become
a friend to the full family in the process. He makes everything easy to understand, goes above and beyond in his promotion (drone, 3D tour, social posts, multiple open houses), and we love his positivity. If you're in a market he serves, look no further than
Travis! He will make it easy, get you the best deal, and pays attention to the details so you can focus on your next chapter. Thank you, Travis!

When we decided it was time to sell our parants' condominium, we needed to select a realtor. When interviewing NextHome Beyond, Travis and Libby came to the meeting prepared. They presented us with a booklet specific to our home. The information showed
us that they understand the current market and their customers' needs. They had done their homework before even sitting down with us.
They immediately communicated with 3 MLS listing agencies and made personal contact with realtors in the area. Throughout the process, Travis and Libby were there to guide us and respected our decisions. They were always available to answer our questions and
discuss our options.
Would we recommend NextHome Beyond? Yes, without hesitation! Travis and Libby are knowledgable, prepared, and respectful. They truly do put their customers first.

We were selling our home in Arizona to make a move to Iowa. Our Arizona realtor advised that our home would sell within days of putting it on the market. Our circumstances required an experienced professional who knew the local Iowa market; as we would
be buying an Iowa property prior to selling ours and also buying it remotely. Travis was knowledgeable in price points of property and of value associated with certain locations within the Iowa area. He guided us toward good prospective property within days
if it appearing in the MLS. We did a zoom call video of the property with Travis. He helped us put in a full price offer on a condo with the only Contingency that it pass inspection. Scarey but a wise decision. Once the Iowa offer was accepted we put our Arizona
home on the market. This was one of the most unusual property transactions for us ti buy a home without seeing it ! Travis took care if all the details remotely. Tge paperwork; title and even an APP to do a checklist of setting up utility services etc. Travis
made this transaction effortless for us. Everything done remotely. Its a 2020 world.
