“Taylor was so great to work with! I'm a first time buyer and she made the process so easy and manageable. I was so overwhelmed before we met and I really appreciate how thorough she was when explaining things to me!”

“Taylor, was an exceptional realtor throughout our entire process. She was incredibly knowledgeable about every question we had. Her communication with us and all necessary members throughout the home buying process was outstanding. We were able to move through the home buying process with very little stress and so much confidence because we had secured our best asset: Miss Taylor Hird. She is truly unmatched. We also love the correspondence Taylor sends monthly in her newsletter that always has the latest and greatest research in which those looking to jump into the market and already established homeowners are seeking. An incredible experience in which we are so thankful for. Thank you, Taylor!”

Home buying can be a roller coaster of emotions, and Taylor was a constant, reliable presence throughout.

“If you're looking to buy or sell a home, work with Taylor!!! She is beyond amazing. Taylor is friendly, personable, professional, knowledgeable, accessible and hard working. She was always available to answer questions or talk through concerns. We are moving to the Des Moines metro (Ankeny) from a small town in north Iowa. Taylor was great about showing us different areas in the metro and discussing the pros and cons of each. Her knowledge of all things real estate is impressive. We are confident she helped us find a great house in a great area at a great price. We can't recommend Taylor highly enough. She really is the best!”

“This was my first time selling a house and Taylor Hird made me feel very confident about the entire process. She walked me through everything and was right on the mark with every decision she recommended. I wish that I would have contacted her when I was trying to buy a house 3 years prior. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Des Moines metropolitan area. Thank you Taylor Hird and Century 21.”
-
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Taylor as a realtor. About a year and a half ago, we saw a house pop up on Zillow that we were interested in. We didn't have a realtor so we asked a friend for a recommendation, and we were given Taylor's contact information. We reached out to Taylor on a Friday night and she ended up showing us that house about 30 minutes later. Though the house didn't stick, Taylor did. She showed us way way too many houses over the next year and a half until we finally found our dream home a few months ago. Taylor was there to answer all of our stupid questions and showed us more houses than I care to admit. She helped us figure out what we were really looking for in a home, when we did not really know ourselves. Taylor is a rockstar and I cannot wait to see what big things she has coming for her in the next few years. I would recommend Taylor to anybody looking to buy a home in the Des Moines area.”
-
“I was so impressed with every little detail. It was incredible. It's so hard to put into words every little thing she did but truly she is the reason I had such a great experience with buying my first home! She worked out issues behind the scenes I had no idea were even issues. She continued to provide great service even while giving birth and taking care of a new born! So incredibly impressed!”
-
“I could not reccomend Taylor enough. Her expertise, patience, and advice helped us through the home buying process for the first time. We will 100% recommend her to our family and friends in the future!”
-
“I was directed to Taylor by a family member who had great experiences working with her in the past. From the first meeting it was clear she understood what i was looking for and went above and beyond helping find the right home for me. Taylor always did an amazing job reaching out to me and communicating the status and timeframe during the purchasing process. Taylor was very accommodating in so many different ways along our journey of finding our house. Her flexibility allowed me to view properties in very timely manners and outside of normal business hours, due to my ever changing job schedule. We can't thank her enough for taking the time and energy in helping us find the perfect home for our needs. We look forward to working with Taylor many times throughout our home buying journey in the future.”

“Taylor was outstanding. She should have her salary doubled.”
-
“My husband and I reached out to Taylor and her team in early fall 2021 to purchase a house. Throughout the whole process, we always felt like she was more of a closed friend than our real estate agent. We loved Taylor's energy and honesty and appreciated her patience and confidence. Since it was our second time purchasing a home, we were extremely critical of the houses on low-inventory and competitive market. There were times when we had cold feet, unsure about the committment of purchasing another home and if we were going to find a house that satisfied our needs and wants. Fortunately, we had Taylor. She respected our feelings, listened to our concerns and made herself available whenever we needed her. This whole experience had been thrilling and satisfying thanks to Taylor!”
-
“Taylor was awesome! Her timeliness on communication as well as her attention to detail while looking at houses was impeccable. She was even contacting us about our home buying process hours after she had her baby. I can't give her enough credit for everything she did throughout the process. She really made the homebuying process stress free and enjoyable. I can't thank her enough!”
-
“This was our first direct interaction with Taylor, however we have worked with Gina previously - and we have to say, we were blown away! Taylor really took the time to truly listen to us and understand what we were looking for in an investment property. She was always extremely quick to communicate, and even faster to set up a showing when we asked. We especially appreciate that Taylor gave us her true professional opinion on a property, even if that meant telling us that it wasn’t a great buy. It was clear to us that she didn’t just want to rush us through, but that she cared most about finding the right fit. We encourage anyone looking for someone who is knowledgeable, caring, communicative, and passionate - to look for Taylor Hird. You won’t be disappointed. One purchase down, another closing in two weeks, and more to follow after that! Thanks Taylor!”

“Being aware of Taylor Hird's work ethic and attention to detail from a previous experience there was no question in choosing her to represent the sale of my property in Ankeny, Iowa. Taylor is extremely knowledgeable, energetic, and focused. She seemed constantly available and always addressed any questions immediately and to my satisfaction. She predicted the property would sell within two weeks and by day two, we had three offers! She was able to share the specific details and differences in the offers which allowed me to to make a much more educated choice on which offer to accept and negotiate. Her knowledge and instincts were spot on! If you need any real estate services, save yourself the time and research and just call Taylor Hird. You'll get top-notch, personalized service and professional representation. For Taylor, it is not about closing rates, it is about exceeding her clients' expectations. I guarantee she will do just that!”

-
“Taylor has to be the best realtor ever! Seriously, I don't want to try another realtor because I know they would not measure up to her. She went out of her way to make sure the purchase of our new home went smoothly. She communicated with us so thoroughly that we always knew where we were at in the process. She met with inspectors and contractors at the property even when we could not be there. And as we experienced some complicated circumstances, she did the time consuming, grueling work of calling and dealing with the seller, insurance companies, banks, and many other parties involved. I can't think of any way she could improve, she is simply the best. We would recommend her to anyone.”

“Taylor Hird was great to work with! She has a very knowledgeable team and did an awesome job of finding us a place to live that had what we were looking for; especially in the current real estate climate.

“It happened by chance -- I was searching for a home alone and was getting so frustrated. Taylor showed me a townhouse that I didn't end up buying. She offered to set up a MLS search for me. Then I sent her several properties I wanted to look at and bought a townhouse 2 days later! Taylor is fantastic. Taylor is a detail person -- she handled everything, explained everything, advised me of next steps and what I needed to do. She responded to texts immediately. She was kind and caring, funny, laughed at my jokes and listened well. Fantastic to work with. Taylor leads with kindness. I am going through a divorce so her caring personality and helpful spirit meant so much to me! I have no complaints. Smooth and fantastic experience. I am so thankful for Taylor!”
