I believe that real estate is more than just a transaction. As a REALTOR® with CENTURY 21 Signature Real Estate, I build my business by referral, and therefore my goal is to provide every home buyer and seller in Iowa with an extraordinary experience that puts people before sales.
Closing the sale matters, but more important is having a trusted advisor in your corner who has your back every step of the way and is able to keep you safe from potential pitfalls.
Reach out if you want to talk about selling your home, buying a property, investing in real estate, or learning more about your local community.

“Gina was great to work with throughout the home buying process. She was especially helpful in providing details of the Ames community as we were moving from out of state. As first time home buyers Gina was also very helpful in walking us through every step of the process.”

“Gina went above and beyond. We had a weird use case for the property we were selling and Gina was able to navigate that and work with us and the co-op to sell the unit. She was always in touch with us if there was a showing, she worked with the co-op to make sure she was following their rules and to make sure that they knew about the showings as well. When we had an offer she was prompt to let us know and worked to get us the price we were asking.”

“We selected Gina and Carrie more or less randomly from the agency's website, and we hit the jackpot. We live in Iowa City, so we needed an agent who was familiar with the Ames market and could keep us informed of developments from a distance. Carrie returned my initial phone call within minutes, and throughout the process of putting our house on the market, communication with Carrie and Gina through phone, text and email was reliable and effective. Especially helpful were their recommendations of local businesses and individuals who could help us get the property in shape to sell. We also came to really appreciate Carrie's and Gina's knowledge of the market and connections with potential buyers. We were delighted when buyers from out of state made an offer on the house almost as soon as it went on the market. Both Carrie and Gina had a clear sense of what we wanted for ourselves and for the property, and they found us a perfect buyer and a satisfactory price quickly. Carrie and Gina smoothly facilitated financial negotiations between us and the buyers, and the entire process was not just painless, it was pleasant. Carrie and Gina are personable, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. It was a pleasure to work with them. A good illustration of Gina's care for us as clients is that she supplied water to our dog who was waiting in the car while we signed the closing papers.”

“I first starting working with Gina Mcandrews when she sold my mother's house. She was so compassionate working with me understanding that I was emotionally attached to this house. She understood my situation and was patient while I worked through the emotions. She was not only a realtor but became a friend. Since that time we have purchased two more houses with Gina's assistance. Each time we were buying with special circumstances. The first house was a relocation through the DOT so there was extra work on her part to coordinate with our relocator. The second purchase was a home for a person with special needs. Once again, she was very helpful and understood our situation. We are appreciative of Gina's knowledge and experience. If we are in need of purchasing property again, we would definitely contact Gina.”
