Nick and Mitch have been very responsive and supportive throughout the build and purchase process. It was very challenging to buy from another state and move here with all of our trust being placed on the Ragan team to keep our interests in mind. They went the extra mile sending us videos of how things were going along the way.

"I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional service Shelly and the Ragan Team provided as my realtor during the recent sale of my home in Omaha, Nebraska. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication made the entire process remarkably smooth and stress-free. From the initial evaluation to the final closing, Shelly demonstrated a keen understanding of the local market and helped me navigate every step of the selling process. Her advice on how to stage the home was invaluable, and it undoubtedly played a significant role in attracting potential buyers. I greatly appreciated their proactive approach in organizing multiple open houses, which maximized exposure and ultimately led to a successful sale. The attention to detail and commitment to showcasing the property in the best possible light truly set it apart. Furthermore, I am particularly grateful for the unwavering support and responsiveness, especially when unexpected emergencies arose after the house was sold. Shelly went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition for both me and the new owners, alleviating any concerns and ensuring a positive experience for all parties involved. The professionalism, integrity, and genuine care for their clients is truly commendable, and I would not hesitate to recommend the Ragan Team to anyone in need of a top-notch realtor.

Nick always had our personal situation in mind with the showings of houses. He helped us find the best house and the best deal that perfectly suits our needs as senior citizens. We can now also highly recommend him.

Shelly did a great job. She was our eyes and ears on the ground in Omaha as we were moving back home to Nebraska. Shelly was easy to work with from afar by phone and email. We had a new build home and she was super helpful, including meeting at the home options showroom and facetiming us to select carpet and tile and stuff. Shelly has a host of connections to help with a storage unit, local movers, and a furniture repair person. We heartily recommend Shelly for your "NextHome"!

As first-time homebuyers moving to a brand-new city while trying to manage our dissertations, the homebuying process felt daunting for us. However, as soon as we connected with Shelly and the Ragan Team, our fears completely disappeared!
Throughout the process, we worked primarily with Shelly. First, Shelly is extremely responsive! When I submitted the online form to connect, Shelly gave me a call within 5 minutes to discuss our search. We continued to keep in contact until we arrived in Omaha for our Spring Break.
Second, Shelly's service is unbelievable! Shelly took off the entire Spring Break week to show us houses and help us explore the city. We appreciated not only Shelly's knowledge of the Omaha area, her amazing restaurant recommendations, and her many connections to home inspectors/HVAC professionals/handymen/sprinkler professionals/etc., but also her ability to focus in on the qualities of a home we wanted. Based on our reactions to homes the first day, Shelly refined the potential homes the second day. Based on our reactions to homes the second day, Shelly refined the potential homes even more the third day (and so on) until we found the one!
Once we submitted an offer and got under contract, the Ragan Team did all the heavy lifting on the back-end and would reach out immediately whenever we needed to do something on our end. And when we ran into a few inspection issues, Shelly advocated and negotiated hard for us and brought us peace of mind with a brand-new roof!
All in all, we're incredibly grateful for Shelly's help in the buying process, and we're excited to enjoy our new home!

We want to express our sincere appreciation for the exceptional service Erin Strunk provided during the recent sale of our Omaha home. Erin is meticulous, insightful, and deeply caring, and her dedication made the entire process incredibly smooth.
Erin’s deep knowledge of the local market was invaluable in helping us appropriately price our property. Furthermore, she went above and beyond by helping us coordinate and arrange vendors to handle the necessary updates and fixes to prepare our house for the market.
Her responsiveness throughout the entire process was unmatched. No matter the question, Erin was always there with prompt, helpful guidance. Her professionalism and genuine care for her clients truly set her apart, and we would highly recommend Erin and the Ragan team to anyone buying or selling a home in the Omaha area.

Nick is amazing. He had my back through every step of the home buying process. He educated me on the homes we looked at as well as other information i didnt even know i needed to know.
He did such a great job, when we moved we used him for the second home buying process as well! This team is the best team out there!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Mitch. He helped us through both buying our new home and selling our old one, and he made the whole process feel so much less stressful than we expected.
From the start, Mitch was super friendly, easy to talk to, and always quick to respond, no matter how many questions we had (and we had a lot!). He really took the time to understand what we were looking for and never made us feel rushed or pressured. When it came time to sell, he gave us great advice on getting the house ready and priced it just right.
What really stood out was how much Mitch genuinely cared. It never felt like we were just another client, he truly had our backs every step of the way. We’re so grateful we had him on our side and would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

This was our first time buying a home and Shelly was beyond helpful every step of the way.

Working with Shelley was truly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Buying my first home was such an exciting milestone, and her support made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Her communication is top notch, and she always kept me updated through check-ins, calls, and touch bases to ensure everyone was on the same page. Shelley takes the time to really understand what you’re looking for and makes the experience so personal. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does through the care and attention she gives, even in the smallest details. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking to buy a home. I’m so thankful for her guidance and could not be happier in my new place!

I recently worked yet again with the Ragan Team for the purchase of another home. This purchase brings the total to 5 homes that I purchased with the Ragan Team. Why them? Put simply, they are experts in their field. I have found their guidance to be productive and their responsiveness to be top quality. Give em a shot and you'll see why I repeat my business with the Ragan Team.

The Ragan team did an excellent job. Nick was very responsive and was always easy to get ahold of. He was constantly looking for great homes that fit our specific needs. Even when he was on vacation in another country, he was able to help us out with an unfortunate situation and had the situation resolved by the end of the day. Would highly recommend! 5 stars in my mind!

We had an incredible experience with Shelly Ragan. My husband got a new job in Omaha and we had to relocate from Wisconsin (9 hours away from Omaha!) Our Wisconsin realtor got us in contact with Shelly and right away she put us in contact with a mortgage company and put aside a whole weekend to show us houses when we came down a few weeks later. After a full Saturday of showing us Omaha and over a dozen houses, we were in her office that evening making an offer and getting it accepted and closed on our new Omaha home a little over a month later!! Shelly is very knowledgeable and was a great resource with any questions we had. She gave us great advice and information and I honestly don't know what we would have done without her. She was always available by phone, text or email and would always respond very quickly to us. We love our new home and feel like we made a great friend in this process - thank you Shelly !! :)
