Brookside Real Estate Company

Thanks to Jim we've purchased two houses and have sold one of them. First off... Jim knows everyone. In our search for both homes (2011 and 2016) he knew the moment that a house was posted for sale or about to hit market just from word of mouth. In today's world, that gave us a huge buying advantage. Plus, after searching through what seemed like thousands of photos online, the moment that my wife and I saw a property that we wanted to see in-person, we'd toss Jim a quick text message and 99.9% of the time we had a message back saying... "booked it". Once we would arrive at a property, Jim would immediately walk off to inspect the most common issues such as foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc. So while my wife and I would be in awe of the beautiful kitchen cabinets or updated appliances, Jim was focused on the attributes that mattered. And this came in handy multiple times during the negotiation process... such as the rotted tree that we had cut down. And I'll tell you, the same attention to detail also came when selling our home. Jim knows what buyers are looking for. He'll give you his honest opinion when it comes to refreshing your paint colors, cleaning up house clutter, cleaning windows, etc. He did everything that he could to help us earn top dollar for our home in Prairie Village, KS. If you can't tell by my review, I highly recommend Jim Kraus. He'll walk through walls for you as you look for your dream property. Drop him an email or phone call, you won't regret it.

I had the opportunity to work with Courtney Kraus for my first home purchase. Courtney went above and beyond to meet my needs and I always be grateful to her. She is passionate about her work, and there is never any doubt she cares about her clients. She is one of a kind, and I am lucky to have worked with such a wonderful person!

Jim was AWESOME to work with. We listed our house in Brookside with Jim (and his team). Because of Brookside Real Estate's knowledge & reputation in KC, we had a lot of activity & the house was under contract in just a few weeks. Jim then represented us on our purchase and he found my wife & me just what we wanted. If you are looking to BUY or SELL a house... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Brookside Real Estate. They put your needs & wants ahead of everything else.
