While moving internationally, selling my home was the least of my worries due to Anne Steele's expertise. In my absence, her team renovated, downsized, painted, and cleaned my 100-year-old farmstead. When I returned for the closing, I wanted to buy the property! Whether moving far or near, trust Anne's commitment to quality service to sell your home.
Anne was absolutely outstanding to work with from start to finish. She listed our home and guided us through that process with confidence and ease. What really set her apart was her ability to get us into our next home—she made what was a complicated and stressful situation feel seamless. Anne is proactive, resourceful, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We’re so grateful for her help and couldn’t imagine going through this process without her.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Anne Steele. From the moment we decided to sell our house, Anne was there for us every step of the way, demonstrating a level of professionalism and expertise that immediately put us at ease. Selling our home came with some unexpected challenges. It was a stressful situation, but Anne was our rock. She handled every interaction with grace and firmness, ensuring our best interests were always the top priority. Her negotiation skills are second to none, and she managed to secure a fantastic deal for us while shielding us from the majority of the pressure. We were so grateful for her calm and confident demeanor during what could have been a much more difficult process. Not only did Anne excel at selling our old home, but she was also instrumental in helping us build our new home. She even listened to what LT suggested for the new build. The entire process, from the initial offer to closing, was seamless thanks to her meticulous attention to detail. If you are looking for a real estate agent who is not only a savvy professional but also a pleasure to work with, look no further than Anne Steele at Jim Hughes Real Estate. She is, without a doubt, the reason we are now happily settled in our new home. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home
Our experience with Anne was fantastic. She has great communication skills, and she does what she says she will do. She cares about providing a great experience from the beginning to the end. It was so refreshing dealing with a realtor who is both professional and full of integrity. She went out of her way to make everything go as smoothly and pleasantly as possible. I 10/10 recommend Anne.

★★★★★Anne went above and beyond to help us get our forever home in Glenwood. A lot of hard work went into this process for us all but she never gave up. She listened when we were frustrated and kept in contact with us. The welcome basket made the move just that much better and the sunsets we see in our little town you don’t see in the big city. I would DEFINITELY recommend Anne if you’re looking for a home. We’re beyond happy here!
We had a top-notch experience with our home purchase through Hughes real estate working with Anne Steele! From the moment we met her until well after our closing, she provided valet service. There were no surprises, everything was positive and convenient. In her way to help us even get her house cleaned, and our lawn mowed during the week of closing, which was a godsend! She went above and beyond to save us the most to money We have complete trust in Anne and Hughes real estate

★★★★★Anne is an absolute superstar real estate agent! We are both very busy professionals that don't have a whole lot of free time to navigate around all the work it takes to get a house "show-ready". Anne tapped her network of professionals to come in & make all of the necessary improvements happen...AND happen really fast! Anne is also a no BS agent that will tell you what she truly honestly feels versus what you want to hear. Our transaction went down pretty much exactly how she told us it would & we were grateful for all of her dedicated hard work! Do not hesitate & call Anne if you're interested in either side of a real estate transaction!
Anne Steele was awesome to work with and bent over backwards to help us while we were out of town and state. She communicated extremely well and ensured all of our questions were answered when both looking for our new home and once we found it. If we ever decide to move again, which is hope not we will use Anne. If not, we will refer her to anyone we know.
Anne is fantastic! I was out of state when I bought my home and Anne walked me through the homes I wanted to see via phone (video) and my in-town family also got to join in. She's very knowledgeable about everything i needed to know and she was also very prompt on replying to questions. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing to buy a home.
We knew Anne was the real estate agent we wanted to work with after meeting her at an open house in 2017. She patiently and diligently worked with us for several months until we finally fell in love with a home. She had incredible knowledge and ability for making that house purchase as painless and smooth as possible. That's why seven years later we knew we would be in great hands with her selling that same house. We had multiple bids within just a few days of listing it and helped us in deciding on the best one. She effortlessly helped us navigate the few bumps we hit during the sale and kept our stress level low. We can't say enough good things about Anne and would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling property. Thank you, Anne!
This was our second sale working with Anne and we have nothing but fantastic things to say. Anne, Bob and the Hughes Real Estate team work hard and advertise strategically. We are so grateful for their help! Our house was on the market for 10 months with a different agency and once we switched, Anne had it under contract within 2 weeks! We are so grateful and would highly recommend her.
We have used Anne Steele, Jim Hughes Real Estate, twice in the past 5 years to sell two of our homes. In both occasions, Anne has found a qualified buyer within a day or two of listing by which we’ve never had to schedule an open house. Furthermore, in both transactions, we got our full asking price, which resulted from Anne doing a thorough job on researching comps and helping set the right asking price. Anne provided exceptional guidance on how to stage our home, and the photographer and videographer were the best in the business. We highly recommend Anne to anyone looking to buy / sell a home.
This is the third time we've had the pleasure of buying a home with Anne, and each experience has been exceptional. She consistently goes above and beyond to find us the perfect home that meets all our criteria. Anne skillfully guides us through every step of the process, making it seamless and stress-free. Beyond being an outstanding real estate agent, Anne is a genuinely kind and honest person who is always available whenever we need her. I wholeheartedly recommend Anne for anyone looking to buy or sell a home—she is truly wonderful! 10/10.
Anne was amazing to work with. We are a military family and she was able to connect to the right VA lenders in the area. This enabled us to take advantage of all the resources that were available to our family while working with those who had knowledge of the local area. She went out of her way to show us the houses we were interested in and when we ultimately decided on one, she went further to gather more resources to help through the closing process. I couldn’t recommend Anne more.
We cannot say enough good things about Anne Steele! We were on the hunt for our forever home,l after being a military family for so many years. We only gave Anne a few days notice that we were going to drive up to Iowa to look for houses. She not only made herself available to show us homes, she put together an entire iteniry of that fit our needs based on the critera we talked about. In one whirlwind trip, we fell in-love with a home, and Anne put her negotitaton skills to work to get us the property at a fair price. Her attention to detail, network of connections, and flexiablity got us through closing very smoothly. If you are looking for someone you cannot only count on, but also trust to be your eyes and ears, Anne is the right reatlor for you! We promise you she will not steer you wrong, and she will make every effort to find the property YOU will want to call your home!

No two moves are the same, but the way Anne works is. Here is what buying or selling a home in southwest Iowa or the Omaha metro looks like with her, from the first call to the day you get the keys.
A real conversation first
