    Sold a home in 2013.
    Adam was very responsive and creative in marketing the house. I enjoyed working with him.

    I don't have anything more to say but the stupid program won't let me quit till it has 150 characters. Adam is 100 times brighter than Zillow.

    This might be my favorite review yet! :) Certainly the most creative. Thanks for allowing us to help, I'm glad we found a buyer who will occupy the house and take really good care of it.

    Sold a Single Family home in 2013 in Woodward, IA.
    I was lucky to know Adam prior to wanting to sell my home so it was an easy decision to choose him to help sell my home knowing his dedication and willingness to put in the extra effort to get things done. He came through for us in every aspect, being very flexible to meet with me when it fit my schedule best and meeting me where it was convenient with my busy schedule. We encountered a few unforseen bumps in the road along the way but Adam handled everything professionally and made the process much more smooth than I expected it to be. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends and family looking to purchase or sell a home.More Less

    Bought a Vacant Land home in 2012 for approximately $250K in Pleasant Hill, IA.
    I met Adam in a bit of a strange circumstance where I was walking in to meet him in order to have my own agent when buying a house. He had an easy deal- sign the papers, get the downpayment, and go... only that didn't happen. Adam is EXTREMELY ethical, trustworthy, and KNOWS the market. I thought I was going to be able to buy a home for a couple of years before getting into something I wanted long term, but after discussing my short and long term goals with Adam, I decided it wasn't the right decision. Given his proven strong ethics, I kept working with Adam in hopes of finding the perfect long term home. Talk about knowing his stuff!!! He told us what was likely to happen, how it would happen, and answered all of our questions about finding a home. Never was there an ounce of pressure- he worked FOR us to make sure we were getting, at the least, a fair deal. We are now proud owners of a lifetime home. I can't say enough positives about working with Adam- hands down, a truly honest, ethical, caring, individual who will go out of his way to make YOU and your dreams a reality.More Less

    Wow, it was quite a journey, but I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. You were great to work with throughout the entire process. Keep me updated and let me know if you need anything in the future!

     

    About Adam Van Lin

    Add personality to your profile! Tell the community about yourself, your home, and your profession.

    I come from a teaching background and view my job as a real estate agent as an extension of my teaching career.  I care about my clients and try to educate them as much as possible throughout the process.  I don't pressure my clients and find the entire home buyer or selling process enjoyable, and you should too!

    I love helping my clients understand the financing process and introducing them to the $0 down payment programs available in rural areas.  I also have knowledge of lenders that will do a 5% conventional loan, so it saves my clients tons of money when they don't have to pay mortgage insurance.

    I work all across central Iowa.  From Perry, to Des Moines, to Indianola, to Panora, to Altoona, to.... well you get the idea.

    Aside from real estate, I enjoy investing, reading, and getting outdoors with my wife and daughter.
