A Common thing we are hearing in this healthy real estate market is, "My friend/family member says now isn't a good time to buy." or "I'm waiting for the bubble to burst again." Well, the truth is, it's a great time to buy! Interests rates are still at all time lows and with the rising rent prices, it makes more financial sense to put your money towards something you can build equity in rather than putting it into something that will give you no return.

Showing mutual respect, we feel like we have made a new friend!"
~ Bill and Sharrel Cash, satisfied sellers

~ Jan Byers, satisfied seller

"Just wanted you to know that we really appreciate how smoothly the sale of our home went. It really could not have worked out any better. The wide marketing of our home you initiated really paid off. Thank you for a terrific experience. You have our highest recommendations, and we'll be more than happy to pass it along. God Bless!"
~ John and Jeanie Mowery, satisfied sellers

"We cannot thank you enough for your time and patience in finding our new home. There's no way we could've done it without you! You made all our dreams come true and we will always hold you dear for that."
~ Meguel and Kris Escutia, satisfied buyers

"Thanks to Don Wixom, we have been enjoying our new home for six months now. Don as the realtor selling our house worked very hard for us. He helped us through all the complex paperwork involved in making offers, getting a loan, etc. Don paid attention to detail and kept us well informed about how things were going. When things needed to be done, Don was readily available, seeing us through a home inspection, even crawling under the house in the dirt and cobwebs when we asked him to. Don was always only a phone call away. We still remember his phone number, we called him so much! Don has a wealth of experience and resources to offer. We would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to buy or sell real estate."
~Scott and Naomi Watson, satisfied buyers

"We were long distance buyers. We had been through some major life changes in 2005 and had first contacted Don Wixom in August of 2006. He stood by us 2 1/2 years showing us houses, driving out to houses and emailing us pictures when we were unable to go ourselves, never knowing if he actually would have gotten a sale from us and he never complained or pressured us once.
He always treated us with great respect as if we were his only customer. Don has done more for us than we would have done for ourselves. He gave us great advice. He was always learning what it was that we were looking for. As our needs changed midway through our searching he adjusted to them.
His website allowed us to search the multiple listing service without addresses and phone numbers needing to be given. He would always check into and answer our questions and requests.
When buying or selling in Idaho we would never consider anyone but Don Wixom. He stayed with us for the long haul and we will stay with him."
Steve and Jean McBee, Buyers Nampa

"Thanks Don, for the link to IDX app for iPhone. Works great! All the information I need right at my finger tips! Thanks for always leading from the front!"
