Bridget made our house hunting experience super FUN and EXCITING! Couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! She was always there for us when we had any questions/concerns and overall just made the whole process super easy for us!

We can not recommend Bridget highly enough. She paid attention to every detail. Without prompting, she followed up with various people to make certain that the home purchasing process was on track. When there was a hiccup, she solved the problem. Though we are not first time home buyers, she thought of many helpful pointers for us. Her negotiating skills were spot on. We could call her at any time and she was delighted to help. Above all of that, while she is professional, she genuinely cared about us and getting us into a home that we loved. Without her, we would not have succeeded. We are genuinely very, very grateful to Bridget and would recommend her to anyone.

Property buying can be a stressful endeavor, Bridget made the process painless. Bridget was very informative, professional, and just a pleasure to work with. My family will definitely be using Bridget for any future homes or investment opportunities!

Bridget was the best relator I have worked with! From the start she listened to our needs, was very timely and beyond organized. Would highly recommend Bridget to anyone looking to buy or sell a property!

She worked with us to find our condo. She knew what we were looking for & found a good unit that would fit our needs in this fast market period. She worked very well with our schedules and gave us good advice but never compromised us or the seller. Her correspondence was very timely, never had to wait for an answer.

We have been looking for a lot in the lakes area for a while. Bridget contacted us from an inquiry on realtor.com. She has gone above and beyond to find one we can build what we want on it. She is very prompt and did an excellent job. We will list our condo with her once we have our shouse done!

Bridget did a great job for us. She answered all our questions and was our eyes and ears locally because we are from out of state. She was very knowledgeable about the properties in the area and helped us to find exactly what we were looking for!!

My sister and I have worked with Bridget for a number of years to find the right house in Okoboji. Through many listings and actual viewing, Bridget never lost patience. We valued her professional assessment of properties and her communication skills. I would highly recommend any prospective buyer to join Bridget's team. I know you will not be disappointed.

Bridget was the best! We had never bought a house before so there were lots of questions. She was always patient and kind. She was prompt with her answers and walked us through everything. Her knowledge of the process is top notch. I would recommend her to everyone looking for a house!

It was a pleasure to work with you. I would certainly recommend you to anyone.
We appreciate you taking care of all the details, & hope to keep in touch with you.

We could not have had a better home buying experience than with Bridget! As our home base is in Atlanta area, getting up to the lake to view available properties in a timely manner was a challenge-especially when the market was on fire. Bridget was aware of our desires and constraints but persevered for THREE years and we are now proud lake house owners.
Professional, patient, helpful, prompt, friendly and all of the euphemisms for those apply! I don't anticipate having to use a realtor in Okoboji in the future, but if we do, she will be the one getting the call.

Bridget was fantastic! Her organization and fast answers to all of our questions were very important in us closing by our deadline. We will absolutely do business with her again!

Bridget was easy to work with. Always had prompt responses, easy to communicate with. She listened to what we were looking for and worked hard to find us the house we eventually bought. If there was a question, she would provide us with answers.

Bridget was totally amazing! I highly recommend her and her agency for excellent service! My experience was up and above all expectations! From day 1 of interest in my property, she was there for me, as a buyer, but representing the seller. Always easy to contact and the time spent closing on my house was delightful!!! Best ever experience! Judy Cassen

Bridget from the first day through the entire process of setting up multiple viewings to the final signing to own a new home was amazing.
She had a positive attitude and looked out for my best interest and worked hard to find a home that I am truly happy with owning.

Bridget's professionalism was exceptional. Selling a property from another state is challenging. Her communication, knowledge and willingness to provide all feedback was greatly appreciated. Our process was seamless from start to finish. I would recommend her to help anyone who wants to purchase a home or sell.

Bridget was willing to go the extra mile because she look at the house when it located at. If the house was too closed a school or a park and she won't recommended the house. You need to tell her what kind of house you are looking for a ranch and two-story house. How many bedrooms you would like 1,2,or 3 she will find you a house. I really like working with Bridget.

Hailing from the land of 10,000 lakes in Minnesota - the Lake Okoboji lifestyle and real estate investment business is my calling!
My commitment, honesty, expertise, and professionalism have served me in my past careers, and are the very same traits I bring to every real estate relationship.
My commitment to the truth and trusted executive skills were honed as a journalist (I was the first female Sports Editor of a daily newspaper in the state of Minnesota), and then as a Director of Catering and Event Management at luxury hotels in Minnesota, Houston, TX and ski resorts in Colorado. (I was the direct liaison to the Secret Service & White House Communications Agency for three executive visits including a sitting US President and Vice President, and a visit by former First Lady Barbara Bush.)
In 2016, my husband Bill and I fulfilled a dream of ours and moved to Okoboji, IA (where we married in 2008) to open our 11-room bed & breakfast inn - The Oakwood Inn Okoboji - where we are currently the owners/innkeepers. Our entrepreneurial spirit and work-ethic blend well with each other and we love hosting people from all over the states!
It was only a matter of time before I became a realtor, as I’ve always loved to buy and sell real estate. A few years after The Oakwood Inn Okoboji was up and running, I started Prestige Homes Okoboji as a way to help service my guests who stay with us while they check out the lakefront properties for sale. I love working with the property investment buyer just as much as the first-time homeowner - there’s nothing like being a part of helping someone find the home of their dreams.
Stay in touch and follow me on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter where you’ll get my insights on real estate trends, learn more about the Lake Okoboji area, and meet my bernedoodle, Maggie!
Let’s start the conversation. I’m committed to handling all the details so you can make your dream a reality. Call me today at 712-330-1089.
