Reviews

We recently purchased a home in Cody, NE., that was listed with Heartland Country. Janelle Johnson was the broker and she couldn’t have been more helpful. She as always willing to answer any questions we had and was very detailed. We loved working with her and if we were ever in the market to sell, we wouldn’t hesitate to use her. — Ron & Carol Lancaster, Home Buyer

5 Star Rating! Couldn’t be more happy with Heartland Country Real Estate Team. Would and have recommended them to friends and family! — Michele Conine, Lot Seller

Another smooth, fast sale! I appreciate the persistence and professionalism! Thanks again, Janelle and Ronna. — Jeremy Benson, Home Seller

We chose Janelle to sell our property with a recommendation from friends. We were pleased with how efficiently and smoothly it was all handled. From the first initial visit to the closing, Janelle did it all with confidence and knowledge. It was a pleasure working with her. — Sue Weston, Home Seller

To Heartland Country Real Estate and Ronna Morse, Thank you for all that you did to help sell Mom & Dad’s house. Ronna, you took care of every detail like we were family…Doing business with people who truly care, not just about this deal but more about the long-term relationships, is what made dealing with y’all a joy. Thank you again. — JD Crouse, Home Seller

Calling Janelle Johnson to help us purchase a “For Sale By Owner” home was the best thing we could have done. We had several trips planned so it was going to be difficult to communicate with the sellers. Janelle was in contact with them the very first day and kept us in the loop with texts. The whole process went faster than we imagined with all her professional help. — Connie Gibbons, Home Buyer

We loved working with Janelle! She was very helpful throughout the entire process. Also was very accommodating as we were out of state for the entire process. She did many video walkthroughs and Zoom meetings. She is very knowledgeable and an outstanding person. She even helped us after closing until we actually moved to town. We would highly recommend and would not hesitate to use her again! Thank you so much. — Allegra and Tim Ponshock, Home Buyer

Heartland Country Real Estate was very good to work with from the first contact until the house was sold. Janelle kept us informed as we progressed through the sale process. The sale price was set, with our approval, at what she thought the house would bring in the current market. Even though we probably could’ve sold the house ourselves, it was worth the money having someone in the business taking care of the showings, inspections and paperwork. If you’re selling, we would definitely recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Keith Drinkwalter, Home Seller

I was an absentee owner and decided to list my house with Janelle Johnson and Heartland Country Real Estate. She was very professional in making the delicate transition withy my renter and prospective buyers. She worked with repairmen and also appraisers. The only trip I had to make to Valentine was the day of closing. We were able to do most paperwork via DocuSign. Thanks, Janelle and Heartland Country. — Deb Cox, Home Seller

I purchased a house with Janelle and Ronna in Valentine, in December, 2021. The process was a bit lengthy due to some circumstances on my end. They both were kind, patient, understanding, and very professional during this delay. Once these things resolved, the transaction resumed and we eventually closed this house sale with no problems at all. They both did a very professional job before, during, and after the sale. I would highly recommend both of these professional women to help you find your next home! — Denise Murry-Porter, Home Buyer

We chose Heartland Country Real Estate to list our home in Cody, Nebraska after hearing great things about them–“They can sell a house in a week.” Well, it actually only took 6 days! Janelle was very professional and an expert in her field. She was so personable and organized. She kept us informed, gave us options and advice and basically paved the way. It was such an easy process for us because she did all the work and kept everything moving forward. Her knowledge is obvious which makes her easy to trust. She was always available and easy to communicate with. We didn’t have to wait. If you’ve worked with many agents, you know that’s very rare and frustrating and delays the buy/sell process. We are so thankful to have had the privilege of Heartland Country Real Estate services. They are the BEST! — Jayson & Jessica Olson, Home Seller

We were pleased with Janelle’s professional experience and hard work in the sale of our property. Things worked out great! — Darwin & Dianne Haas, Lot Seller

Great people. Hard working for buyer and seller. Understanding. — Bill Ward, Lot Seller

Janelle and Ronna were helpful and thoughtful throughout the home-buying process. Heartland made my first home purchase go smoothly and I thank them for finding me a home. — Jackson Furlong, Home Buyer

Janelle Johnson worked for us as buyers. She did an excellent job for us getting comparable so that we could offer wisely on any property we were interested in, researched what was available not necessarily just her listings and worked above and beyond to get everything else done that is involved in a R.E. purchase. Janelle excelled at keeping us in the loop. Thank you. — Chev & Lis Sherman, Home Buyer

Our experience in working with Heartland Country Real Estate was all positive. The property was sold in a timely manner. Janelle and Ronna did an excellent job of communicating. They were considerate of our schedule and even the online pictures were great. We both believe they did their best for us. — Charles & Evelyn Foster, Home Seller

Our experience working with Heartland Country Real Estate was nothing short of great! Us being first-time home buyers, we were’t sure what to expect. Ronna made the whole process easy and less stressful that what we thought it would be. She easily answered all of our questions and was quick with her responses. 10/10. Would recommend Heartland to anyone looking for their next home. — Lindsey & Marcus Little, Home Buyer

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter on behalf of Janelle Johnson. She worked professionally and tirelessly to bring the sale of my home to a close despite a number of obstacles presented by the buyer’s lender. She stayed on top of the situation daily and worked with the buyer toward an equitable solution. I am extremely grateful for her efforts on my behalf. — Karen Viscuso, Home Seller

I am very happy with my experience with Heartland Country Real Estate. We received a very good price for the house and 6-acre property that we sold at auction. They were very professional. — Don Cantrell, Home Seller

It was an experience I will never forget. I walked into Heartland Country Real Estate thinking it was a place I owed money. But, I found a lovely lady that became a friend. She is great and knows how to please you. She went out of her way to help me with a mess I had. I was very happy with the outcome. Janelle is so good at her job. I love her. I made a friend and got my mess cleaned up and still had money left. She is amazing. — Marie Hayford, Commercial Property Seller

Thank all of you for the assistance the past years. Your patience, knowledge, honesty and ability to answer any questions I may have makes it easy for me to recommend your firm to anyone who is considering buying or selling any size real estate they may have. –– Homer Grinde, Home Buyer

We were extremely pleased with the professionalism and attention during the selling of our house snd the purchase of another. The thoroughness of their research, inspections, showings and numerous other details were handled in a timely manner. The closings both went smoothly and made transitions of selling and buying much, much easier than it could have been without Heartland Country Real Estate. — John & Susan Johnson, Home Buyer and Home Seller

My experience with Heartland Country Real Estate was top-notch! Both Janelle and Ronna were highly professional but kind and respectful at all times. Selling my home was an emotional experience, which they acknowledged and cared about. I also appreciated their use of safety and termite inspectors. As a home seller, I wanted to know that my home was safe and that I wasn’t trying to sell a faulty product. If I was going to purchase a new home, I would want these inspections completed for my well-being. I don’t believe other realtors in the area are this conscientious of the safety of the homes they are selling. It is without hesitation that I would recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Mary Ann Coupland, Acreage with Home Seller

Working with Heartland Country Real Estate was a very positive experience. They were extremely helpful in obtaining any assistance needed to maintain the home while it was on the market. Very helpful since I am not a Valentine, Nebraska resident. — Mary K. Gustafson, Home Seller

Janelle was amazing to work with when buying our home. She was very helpful and her schedule was flexible. She seemed to be on top of everything and great about contacting us. I would highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Sierra Lehmkuhler, Home Buyer

We very much appreciate all the effort that Janelle and Ronna put into selling our home in Valentine. They were both professional during our interactions with them. I especially appreciated the consistent communication that they provided throughout the process of listing our home, showing it to potential buyers and negotiating in a professional manner on our behalf. If you are buying or selling property in Cherry County, I highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate! — Jerry & Judy Arnold, Home Seller

Thank you Heartland Country Real Estate for the pleasant experience selling our land. We were very grateful for the expertise, knowledge and friendly staff. — Jean Todd Estate, Land Seller

I am so appreciative of the service received from Heartland Country Real Estate. Both Janelle and Ronna were so considerate that I was living out of the area, and needed someone closer to the property to sell it. When I called Heartland they assured me they would do their best and they did. They worked very hard on helping the family ready the property for sale and assisting us with concerns and/or questions. They sold our property and we are very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend them to anyone who has property to sell or looking for property to buy in the area. — Connie LeZotte and family, Home Seller

I found this experience to be quite pleasant. Janelle was attentive and focused on the task at hand; always followed up in a timely manner with answers to any questions I had. Would definitely work with Janelle again if given the opportunity! — Jeff & Jodi Mattson, Home Buyers

Thank you! Heartland Country Real Estate (Janelle and Ronna). You did such a great job getting my property sold! Even though it did take more than 1 1/2 years…perseverance!! You showed it bunches of times even on times I wouldn’t have expected you to! We worked together keeping the property protected after storms and through the winter. Our perseverance paid off with a sale! Thank you! — Diana Ostrander, Acreage with Home Seller

As power of attorney for my mother, I contacted Heartland Country Real Estate to help me with the sale of her home. I was very impressed with the professionalism and courtesy shown to me through the whole process. They did an excellent job of advertising and showing my mom’s house. They helped walk me through the whole process with minimal stress. I would highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate to anyone who is either buying or selling real estate. — Nancy Simmons, Home Seller

Heartland Country Real Estate made our first time selling a house a wonderful experience. Everything they said they would or were going to do, was done. Always willing to answer any questions. Great job advertising the property and showing it. Heartland Country Real Estate took care of setting up all appointments and orchestrating all the correct paperwork to make the closing go very smooth. Janelle and Ronna are very knowledgable, honest and friendly. I would recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Edith Schneider, Home Seller

Janelle was professional and very organized during the whole process. She kept in constant contact with me and kept me informed all the way through closing. She made the transaction simple. I would highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Shane C Westcott, WSR, LLC, Acreage with Home Buyer

I had a very positive experience working with Janelle and Ronna at Heartland Country Real Estate. I was welcomed with a friendly, helpful and understanding attitude by Janelle as soon as I walked into her business. Janelle immediately advertised my house in as many places as possible. She was very motivated in getting my house sold for me and, because of her efforts, my house sold within 3 months! I had been trying to sell my house for 3 years prior to her taking it on. Janelle was also good with following up to make sure that all the details were handled and that all parties involved had followed through with their obligations to me and vice versa. I would highly recommend Heartland Country to anyone wanting to sell their property. I wish I had known about Janelle’s work ethic sooner. — Susie Kennison, Home Seller

I have worked with Janelle on several properties. She is always very professional, helpful, and knowledgeable throughout the whole process and an overall pleasure to work with. Thank you, Janelle! — Jeremy Benson, Home Buyer

Janelle, thank you so very much for all you did for us in the purchase of the home. This was a difficult situation with me in Denver and the house in Valentine. Thanks to you I always knew what was going on and what was expected next. You took care of so many things for me and I really did appreciate it. Although I am a Colorado Real Estate Broker, some things were similar but some things were very different and I did depend on your help and honesty, even though you were the broker for the seller…Thank you, again, for everything. — Belva C. Wildman, Home Buyer

We would like to express our deepest appreciation with Janelle & Mark’s professional service in the sale of our home of 42 years. They were so much help to us and made it easier for us. Thank you. — Enid & Paul Zysset, Home Seller

Mark Johnson worked very hard on the sale of our property, keeping us informed in a timely manner and treated us fairly on his realty fees while getting us a fair price on the land sale. — Jon Davenport, Land Seller

I was very happy with Janelle & Ronna throughout the home buying process. Every house I looked at had something from my wish list. When I made the final decision on my house Janelle was helpful during the closing process. I would highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate. — Cindy Scott, Home Buyer

Janelle and her team are a first-class operation.  Janelle provided excellent advice and assistance in our home pricing, staging/showing, and negotiating with prospective buyers.  When we had a water leak she rapidly found clean up teams and got them to the house within hours.  We highly recommend Heartland Country Real Estate as very professional and trustworthy agency for your real estate needs. — Mike & Sherry Sims,  Acreage with Home Seller

Purchasing our home through Janelle Johnson at Heartland Country Real Estate was the smoothest real estate transaction we have ever had. Janelle provided tips on what we could do on our part and kept us informed of progress on the transaction. She was quick to respond to any questions that we had. Janelle provided very professional and friendly service. We would definitely use her in the future and strongly recommend her to others. — Mike & Kelly Petersen, Acreage with Home Buyers

Late last year I decided to purchase my first house. There was a house that fit my need perfectly in Valentine. I was put in touch with Janelle and she was great to work with. Although I had taken a class on home ownership and purchasing, I still had many questions and she was able to answer all of them. I travel extensively for work, which I thought was going to hinder the buying process. Not so! After viewing the house, the rest of the process was completed remotely! Thanks for her flexibility and professionalism in helping me purchase my first house from 4 hours away! — Jason Klawonn, Home Buyer

Was very satisfied with Heartland Country with selling my real estate. Was honest, helpful and prompt about any advice or information. Would recommend Heartland Country Real Estate to anyone. Thanks, Mark and Janelle.  — Phyllis Ohlmann, Land Seller

Very Good. Everything went smooth. Will do business with you in the future. — Ken Wilson, Land Purchaser

From the beginning Janelle kept us informed as the sale of the property went through the protocols of the estate requirements. One of her other clients did end up purchasing the property! Selection of this real estate firm was the smartest move we made in settling Mom’s estate. Janelle didn’t “sugar coat” anything. When she tells you she is going to do something she is going to do it right away and correctly! — George & Kathleen Riggle, Home Seller

You ladies were great to work with! You helped me sell my house in a good, timely fashion! You helped me with everything and I am very grateful to both of you! Thank you! — Tasha L Baxter, Home Seller
