Testimonials
Read what our clients love about our services.
"The professional staging, photography and marketing of the home resulted in a quick sale! The home showed well on the internet and resulted in multiple showings. We realized a maximum return on our investment."
Home Seller
"Terrific home buying experience. Ben has the knowledge, responsiveness and attention to detail that you want on your side when buying or selling your home. His seller services went above and beyond and helped sell our house during a down market."
Buyer & Seller
"Ben was professional, very organized, and got the job done! He priced our property right and it sold within five days! He kept us abreast every step of the way! Ben was a win, win combination! I would most definitely work with Ben again and am thrilled with the sale of our property!"
Teresa D.
"All cards on the table, Ben is my brother. Despite that, he worked extremely hard to get me the place I've always wanted and having referred him to others, I know I was not unique in that aspect. I moved away from Colorado in 2004 and recently returned. Denver certainly has changed since then, Ben personally tailored my experience to look in the areas I didn't know had changed so much. Through his contacts I was able to get a townhome in a new build that was beyond my expectations. He represented me and helped in every aspect of the process, especially the ones I had no clue how to approach (builder walk through, I'm looking at you). Bottom line, he worked hard for me, and I couldn't be happier in my new house."
Tyler D.
"On top of all the latest classes, certifications, and latest programs that may be lesser known many years of expertise. Have used multiple times can make the deal work for you when it seems no one else can; Great network. Highly recommend Rose!"
Home Buyer
"We absolutely loved working with Ben! As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and Ben was always extremely helpful in answering them all. We were looking for an agent who would be knowledgeable, offer insights and opinions, and be proactive but not pushy. Ben was all of those things and more! He was easy to work with from day one until closing day, and always made himself available for us. He exhibited a lot of patience with us (buyers who had no idea what we were looking for), and helped to guide us to our perfect home. Our home-buying process was easy and enjoyable, and we look forward to working with Ben again for our next home purchase!"
Home Buyer
"My Husband and I used Rose when we purchased a house in City Park. She was an amazing REALTOR® with a wealth of knowledge about the area and the purchasing process. We would absolutely recommend her whether you are in the market for a new home or looking to sell."
Buyer & Seller
"Rose knows her business, knows the area, is there when we need her, and is responsive to all of our needs. We moved from out of state and needed an agent who could do it all. Rose excelled!! She is the right mix of professionalism and friendliness. She has been so helpful with suggestions and advice."
Olivia Owen
"My husband and I just closed on our second home with Rose Wickwire. Rose is the Best agent and one of the best humans you will ever meet in your life. She is kind, responsive, dedicated, hard working, and trust worthy. She is not just our REALTOR® but our bonus mom and lifelong friend. We love you Rose and thank you for finding our forever home."
Tiffany
"Everything was so smooth and well attended to and they got me more money than I expected. I don't know what I'm going to do with it all. They're great to work with."
Home Seller
"Rose and her team worked hard to help me find the right house and sell mine, (even through some rough circumstances). She was always positive and encouraging. I would highly recommend her to anyone selling or purchasing a home."
Buyer & Seller
"I cannot thank Ben Dorland enough! We truly appreciate the help and guidance you provided us in finding our new and forever home. Colorado friends and family, if you are looking to buyer or sell a house, Ben is fantastic. He’s reliable, knowledgeable, and just a stellar real estate agent. Really enjoyed working with him and his team to both sell our old home and buy our new house."
Home Buyer
"We worked with Rose. She was patient with us and always willing to meet to see a house. The process was long because the market at the time had a lot of buyers and not a lot of sellers. She became a part of our family and my girls looked forward to seeing her. She knew what we were and weren't looking for and was able to talk to us clearly about our options. The best was that she would call anyone to find out information even if it seemed trivial on our part. If Rose was out of town or unavailable, any one of her team members met us and worked confidently on her behalf. We bought our first home and The Wickwire Team dealt with our needs even 6 months after our purchase."
Home Buyer
"Ben Dorland is great! We had a very tight timeline and an even tighter list of home demands and Ben delivered. We looked at a bunch of homes but still needed a night to decide. Not kidding, as we discussed our top two a couple hours later that night, Ben sent us another option that was exactly what we wanted. We ended up seeing that home (twice) and choosing it. But Ben didn't stop there.. He was very involved from walk throughs and inspections to paperwork and closing. I don't leave many reviews on anything, but I wanted to go out of my way to recommend Ben as your REALTOR®."
Home Buyer
"They told us what needed to be done to get top dollar. They listened to what we wanted in a new home and helped us find what we wanted. They were there when we needed them and always got back to us quickly."
Buyer & Seller
"Absolutely the best. knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate. Provide estimated quotes on what might be expected on house market. Dependable always, including calls on late hours for assistance or to answer our none urgent questions. No pressure while looking for homes. Helps you visualize what you can do to make that home yours. Informative staff. So happy to have met Rose Wickwire for my Real Estate Broker as well as meeting the rest of the staff, Ashley and Ben. Thanks so much for all your help in finding our best home."
