First Weber Group

We also moved from out of state with the wonderful assistance of Deb Basler as our buyer’s agent. She coordinated more than twenty showings in one weekend to help us find a home during the few days we were able to be in Oshkosh. As first time home buyers she guided us smoothly through the process and normal hiccups that arise. Great local knowledge, straightforward, and a lot of fun too.

This review is solely for Deb Basler.
While in town for the weekend (from Memphis… so not a short trip!), we got it into our heads that we wanted to see some condos, and see them, well, right now. The boyfriend made a few calls and got someone on the phone who promised to call around and see if anyone was available. Not super promising, but, well, it was the Saturday before Christmas — what could we really expect?
Shortly thereafter, we received a call from Deb, who said she could show us some vacant units later that afternoon. Not only was she willing to drop everything and come out on a Saturday, she was full of information about the area, low pressure, and surprisingly honest about what we were looking at – no sugarcoating, «Everything’s fabulous!» realtor crap.
And thus we were off and running on a home search that took several months, while she patiently put up with our waffling between buying or renting, condos vs single family homes, and much more. When we announced that we wanted to come up for a weekend and see 22 homes in 2 days, Deb didn’t bat an eye, but just asked for the list and planned out the showings. When we ran ahead of schedule, wanted second showings, and suddenly wanted to add properties we’d seen in the paper, she got on the phone and made it happen. I can’t imagine spending 2 full days with anyone else — Deb’s low key, fun, and slightly irreverent attitude kept me going through far more homes than anyone should see in such a short period of time!
Even the scads of paperwork required for an offer were made more bearable by Deb’s approach. «This is just another stupid thing you need to sign» boils it down to my level — I don’t need 20 minutes of explanation about something that I’m required to sign in order to make an offer! And the fact that she was willing to come into the office at 8pm on a Sunday to write an offer, after a full day of showings, really meant a lot.
After we moved into our new home, Deb sent us a lovely note thanking us and welcoming us to Oshkosh, and even included a gift card to Menards, which was just the cherry on top of a great experience. If you’re thinking of buying a home in Oshkosh, call Deb — she’s the best!
