Deborah Oltmann, Hudson,Iowa, a buyer from Hudson, IA
We chose Rick Bauer because he is our neighbor and we have heard many great things about him. He didn't disappoint us at all. He is a great realtor. Many years experience.
We look forward to working with him when we are ready to list our previous home.
Rick has been the FAMILY RELATOR for over 30 years!!!! We all love him because goes above and beyond just selling a house. He offers his help in numerous ways....to many to mention here. In addition, to some of us it's important that he's a Christion.
Rick Bauer sold my mom's house in 3 wwwka! I flew in from CA, spent 2 days in Waterloo. The house was listed before I left with 38 interested viewers. I got a total of 6 good offers and was happy that the buyer selected was not an investor. Rick was professional, knowledgeable, trusrworthy and kind. Most importantly, he is a man of integrity! I highly recommend him!
Don't try to sell your house by yourself. There is too much to keep track of and everything needs to be done in a timely manner. Rick and his team are professionals that know how to make the process work smoothly. I can't tell you how impressed I am with Rick and his team! You will be doing yourself a huge favor if you hire Rick to help you buy it sell!

Jerry Brickman Forest City IA, a seller from Waterloo, IA
Rick was available and understanding in the many hurdles that we faced in selling this property. He went and helped in so many ways including finding help when we needed it. Rick also dove in and helped physically when we discovered physical problems. Can't say enough to thank him and his team!
Rick was and is a kind , caring, and patient professional realtor. He worked diligently with my wife , tenants, and myself to get our rental property sold without causing major interruptions to our everyday lives. He was wonderful in the way he navigated the showings of our property.
Rick is always willing to go above and beyond to help in any way he can. Rick has been our realtor for many years and we have had great success with him and his team.
Rick was an excellent agent to work with. He was knowledgeable of the area and the market as well. He was always available when we called and followed up on everything that was needed. Honestly, we could not have asked for a better realtor to help us facilitate the sale of our home.
I interviewed a few agents before deciding on Rick, he has years of experience and made the entire process of selling my house easy and stress free. He was always available to answer any questions I had, day or night and took care of everything. I always knew Rick had my best interest in mind and he worked hard to make sure I was taken care of.
I am pleased to have the opportunity to recommend Rick in any of his business transactions. I quickly developed compete reliance on any recommendation Rick suggested and would certainly have him as my real estate agent should the need arise.
Rick Bauer is the most Patient & Kind & Caring Realtor I have EVER worked with ! I have lived in & bought houses in Denver Colorado , Lakewood Colorado, , Hot Springs Arkansas & now Im back Home in Waterloo,Iowa !!! I would call Rick & say lets go see this one or he would send me houses in my Email, I think we looked at , at least 15 houses!!! But this last house I bought was sent from up above !!! Im not kidding !!! Thank You So VERY MUCH RICK !!! YOU Are The BEST REALTOR EVER !!!
We purchased our home while living 3 states away. This increased the stress level. Rick was amazing, he was available with answers and help every step of the way. We felt like we were his only clients!
How does one choose a person to help with the sale or purchase of a home? I really didn't know where to even begin. It can be a daunting prospect choosing a realtor, and I was daunted. How do you find someone who is worthy of your trust?
Last summer, when it came time for my stepfather to sell his home, we had two options: 1., throw a dart at the list of local agents, or 2., ask for referrals from friends. We tried option #1 and found a couple of agents that said they would help us. But though we interviewed several, we just couldn't find anyone that we felt we could trust. Everyone seemed to be mostly concerned with getting us to sign on the line that was dotted. After a couple of false starts, we went with option #2, and luckily a friend pointed us to Rick. "You can't go wrong with Rick," my friend said.
My friend was right. Not only does Rick exude confidence, backed up by his decades of experience...he is also a good and kind soul. He has a relaxed manner which is helpful in reducing any stress that can accompany such a large and impactful transaction. As calming as his manner is, Rick is also Johnny on the Spot. He was always available and immediately responded to my many phone calls and texts. Most every time time I called, he had already anticipated my needs. He treated us as if we were his only client (which we were certainly not!).
Our sale went off without a hitch. All in all, the experience was like working with a trusted friend (if only all my friends had the depth of knowledge that Rick has). I thoroughly and whole-heartedly recommend him.
Rick and his team did a fantastic job, he was transparent and honest and made the entire process of selling my house a breeze. I had a few meetings with other realtors and didnt feel like they had my best interest as a priority, spoke with Rick and he made me feel at ease and worked with me every step of the way, answering any questions I had and truly taking all of the stress out of my hands.
So many to chose from that it can be quite daunting. Even combing through reviews is exhausting because everyone has their own perspective. You never know who is stretching the truth or always see/voice the bad. But, we heard of Rick through family and the reviews backed up what we personally heard.
Rick had double the work with my husband being in town and me and the rest of the family in another state. He handled it effortlessly. I don't easily trust anyone when Im making purchases and this is the biggest purchase of our lives. Rick was there every step of the way to guide us in making our long time dream come true. It was as if he was along time family member doing us a favor and helping us out.
We are so grateful he worked with us. Hes down to earth, honest and never pushy. His experience and knowledge in the real estate world is invaluable. Dont pass him by and use another agent.

Rick is thoughtful and prompt. He is a personal friend. I have bought and sold several homes with Rick and I would do it all again. I think he knows everyone in the Cedar Valley. He made several helpful recommendations when we had specific needs.
Rick was easy to work with and talk to. He knows the market well. We set a price and with his knowledge of the market the price was adjusted and the home sold in a month. Thanks for your help Rick.
I was making an out of state move and needed someone familiar with the local area, Rick proved to be exactly what I was looking for. He was helpful in communicating with perspective sellers when we wanted to discuss possibilities and negotiations. You will find him to be friendly and knowledgeable. He helped me find the perfect home!

Eric Robinson (Waterloo, Iowa), a seller from Waterloo, IA
Rick Bauer and his RE/MAX team did an excellent job getting professional pictures and producing high quality listing online and in print. This attracted several potential buyers during the first two weeks, and the house sold in that time for great amount. They also helped me to negotiate with the buyer so that the obstacles to purchase could be taken care of without reducing the return we desired on the house. I think this was good for the buyer and I know it was good for my family.
Rick was GREAT!! Always available for any questions or anything we needed at anytime. Made us feel like we were family. He went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and in the time frame we had to work with. By far a great realtor! 2019
We would recommend to anyone selling their house to use Rick Bauer. Our daughter was having a difficult time selling her house and finally asked Rick to do it for her. When we saw how quickly he got results we knew he would do the same for us. Rick is hard working, helpful, honest and a good Christian man.

Mark Chapman, Wenatchee, Washington, a seller from Waterloo, IA
I bought my home on Wakonda Drive in Waterloo thru Rick Bauer in 2002 and he was the first guy I called when I was selling it 17 years later. Rick is a terrific man, honest and a total pro. I only hope I can find someone like him in the future now that I have moved far away from Iowa. I'd recommend Rick to anyone looking for a realtor.
Josh Lux, Cedar Falls, a seller from Cedar Falls, IA
Rick's knowledge and experience play a significant role in selling and buying. He has sold 2 of our properties, and they both sold in 2 weeks or less. Honesty is another attribute of Rick Bauer. He doesn't beat around the bushes, he tells you how it is. Thanks for making our selling experiences easy and smooth, Rick!
Michelle and Glen Marshall , a buyer from Waterloo, IA
I had worked with Rick Bauer on three previous real estate transactions, all positive experiences. He always had great advice and was helpful in guiding me through my first home purchase and in the selling of my parents home. My husband understood I had developed a trusting relationship with Rick and that was important in our latest real estate transaction. Ricks team was great to work with. Thank you Bobby Kastli and Barb. I recommend the Rick Bauer Team when I can!

Rick is a solid professional who knows his market and colleagues exceptionally well. Rick worked within the boundaries of our schedules and arranged for us to tour the homes we were interested in seeing on short notice. He picked a robust group of houses for us to tour based highly on our wants and needs. His team was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, as well. We will be listing our prior home with Rick soon, and are confident in his abilities to market and promote it. Rick is a stand-up guy who cares about his clients' priorities and offers sage advice for buying and selling their homes. 2018
