" Our family worked with Wendy on the sale of our in-law's home. She was forthright and honest through the entire process, helping us know what changes would be advantageous for the quick sale, as well as highest selling price, of the home. Recommendations also came with a list of contacts to complete the work. Her knowledge and expertise in the field of real estate was evident and her ability to work with the family on a personal level did not go unnoticed. I would highly recommend Wendy. She was aware of and on top of each step of the process, including following up with the buyer's agent to be sure we met our timeline goals of closing at the end of June. Wendy was a real blessing to our family in a difficult time. And for that, we thank her and are pleased to encourage others to use her services. "

- Laura Kime

" Two words. Responsive and diligent. I live and work outside of Ohio and rely on referrals exclusively. Wendy was referred to me by a 40 year veteran of Ashland and Richland county real estate. Wendy’s high level communications skills and responsiveness to prospective clients captured all the details my team required and she further painted a clear picture of each transaction so we had zero questions and zero issues - all handled or addressed in advance. Call her today. "

- Eric Krantz (Principal Trustee)

" Wendy did an awesome job with everything. Kept everything moving along fast, made everything easy. Always available and responded quickly with any questions. Best closing I ever had. A big thank you. "

- Kevin

" I’ve bought and sold many houses and certainly have high expectations in hiring an agent. Wendy not only met, but exceeded those expectations in every way. Her communication sets the bar for what every realtor should strive for. She was punctual, responsive, and it was apparent that “quality over quantity” is what she strives for. Our house was in contract in less than a week with 3 offers over asking price, eventually closing at $13,000 over asking price. I was also given access to a box truck for my move for free! As an overall company, I truly feel like NextHome is setting the bar in customer service, marketing, and technology. The quality of the photos was unlike anything I’ve seen on the market. Everything about their marketing was high quality, cutting edge, and utilizing multimedia outlets. I would HIGHLY recommend Wendy Anderson to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. "

- Kim Swanstrom

" It is my great good fortune to have sold my home through Wendy. She is a master realtor. Every detail, every step of the way, was handled with skill and knowledge. She gave me wonderful support and marketed my house so skillfully that it sold significantly over asking. The entire experience was so amazing. I can't say enough! "

- Judith Ingraham

" 5/5, Wendy was terrific. Selling our house was made 10x easier with Wendy's care and expertise. She helped us through every step and was always responsive and professional in our interactions. I would recommend her and Next Home to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate! "

- Caitilin Hudak

" Wendy is an exceptionally helpful realtor who goes above and beyond the call of duty to make sure that her clients are able to find the house that they're looking for. When my wife and I were preparing for a move from out of state and were looking for a house in Ashland, Wendy not only connected us with the right house for our family but also gave us names of local contractors, checked on the work that service technicians were performing on the house in our absence, and continued to provide us updates through every step of the process. She was a strong advocate for our needs and demonstrated a very detailed knowledge of houses and the local housing market. She answers texts, emails, and voicemail messages within minutes. We found her to be extraordinarily helpful. I would strongly recommend Wendy as a realtor. She greatly exceeded our expectations, and I'm very glad that we selected her as our real estate agent. "

- Daniel Williams

" Wendy is the consummate professional. She was always responsive to our questions and concerns. No question or concern was too small for her to address and she has a natural ability to put you at ease regardless of the simplicity or complexity of said concerns. Phone calls and text messages were answered in an efficient and timely manner. She always did what she said she would do and did it in a caring and compassionate manner. She was always smiling and optimistic in spite of any issues that arose during the purchase of our new home. She remained responsive to our needs and concerns throughout the entire purchasing process. Wendy's knowledge, expertise, and professionalism are remarkable. These qualities are instrumental in instilling buyers'/sellers' confidence in Wendy's ability to help them achieve their new home goals. I would highly recommend Wendy to anyone interested in selling or buying a new home. "

- Phillip Cervantes

" We never thought we would be able to purchase a home in this tight market but Wendy made it happen. She listened to our concerns and worked hard to find us homes with the amenities that were important to us while at the same time opening our minds to possibilities we wouldn't have otherwise considered. Her meticulous attention to detail is highly impressive, as are her sharp negotiation skills. I cannot recommend Wendy enough for any of your real estate needs. "

- Karen G

" We were blessed to have Wendy as our buying agent. She was always on top of things that needed done. Quick to respond to questions. Always easy to contact. She made us feel like we were in this together, beginning to end , she was there for us, and then some. Now she is our selling agent for 2 properties knowing she will be with us beginning to end , she's already proved that to us. Thank you Wendy for making the whole process wonderful. "

- Tim Mills

" Wendy made our house search so easy. She was a thoughtful guide and helped us navigate a tough market during our search. She was extremely responsive and made great effort to get us showings as soon as possible. She has a great deal of expertise and was able to answer every question we threw at her. We are so thankful for her help in finding the perfect house for our growing family! "

- Katherine Lindberg

" Wendy was very friendly. She is very knowledgeable in her career.She was attentive with us thru the whole process of us buying this house. It was quick from start to finish. She is very patient as it took a little while to get to the signing process. AAAAA++++ WENDY ...I recommend her if you are looking to buy a house!! "

- Shelly Schoonover

" Due to some medical issues, Wendy has patiently served us for a year and a half. She has always been courteous and patient, and finally found the home that we needed at a price we could afford. Over this time, we have come to think of her more as a friend than an agent. "

- Roger Edward Kondrup

" Wendy was great to work with during a very stressful time. My parents had moved in with me so I could help care for my dad who was on hospice and confined to bed. We needed to sell their home and the task was daunting. Wendy was very accommodating and worked with us to make everything as easy and smooth as possible. She was informative and honest yet not pushy. We trusted her every step of the way and have no regrets. The marketing was phenomenal from the staging, online photos and video, facebook posts and even the description on the listing. This was my childhood home and my parents home of 35 years and she captured our love for the home in the listing details. We were very pleased. We were also very surprised as we were in contract within 24 hours! Sadly, my dad passed away before closing but Wendy compassionately helped us through the final hurdles and we got the house officially sold. We had an excellent experience with her and would definitely recommend her to others. She is kind and trustworthy and very good at what she does. "

" Wendy Anderson helped navigate me through the process in a seamless and professional manner. Her knowledge of the process, her marketing skills, and clarity throughout the listing took much pressure of me. I highly recommend Wendy for your real estate brokerage needs! "

- Thomas McBride

" We first contacted Wendy through a mutual friend who told us about “Lucy” , the free to use Next Home Next Stepp moving truck for Ashland County residents. We didn’t really need a large professional moving company to move our parent into assisted living, so finding this smaller, quicker to schedule option was great for us. It was such a great experience that when it came time to sell our parent’s condominium , we chose Wendy with confidence. Her local knowledge of the market, her timing and business networks were critical to the success of our sale. Wendy and her business networks freed us up to focus on moving our parent into assisted living. It was an emotional decision and Wendy was understanding and patient with our family. Wendy made the whole experience as seamless as possible , working with family located from three different states! The condo sold in record time at slightly above asking price. Wendy utilized social media, efficiently paired with local coverage to sell the condo. The McInturf family certainly appreciates Wendy’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine compassion throughout this process. We couldn’t have done it without her! "

- Terri McInturf

" I don’t even know where to begin singing Wendy’s praises. When looking for a realtor, her name sort of fell into our lap. Since we live in another state, we had to trust that she would do us right. And right she did! She did a phenomenal job from beginning to end. Because of a family tragedy, we were put in a very difficult position, but Wendy was there to help us through it all. I’d never sold a house before, so I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. Wendy was very patient guiding me through every detail and answered all my questions, especially with signing all the forms. I was on a huge learning curve figuring all this out and she was a great help. She even listened as I spoke through my tears on the occasions I couldn’t hold them back. Her compassion and understanding made a world of difference. The house sold very quickly and she handled all the details since we do live in another state, but she kept us updated every step of the way. I would highly recommend Wendy as a realtor. She won’t let you down, and I know she will work as hard for you as she did for us. Thank you, Wendy! I don’t know what we would have done without you! "

- Karen Langford

" Always appreciate working with Wendy! A professional all the way. "

" Wendy is is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to get things taken care of in a timely manner! It was a pleasure working with her and I will forever recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor. "

- Pamela Mosbey

" I can’t say enough good things about NextHome Next Stepp and Wendy Anderson! My mom recently sold her home in Delaware and was looking for a fresh start near my sister in Ashland, Ohio. After my Dad passed away, she had been living in a house filled with tough memories, and moving was an incredibly emotional journey for her. Wendy was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Buying a home from out of state isn’t easy, but Wendy went above and beyond to make it smooth and stress-free. She treated my mom with kindness, compassion, and professionalism that really stood out. Wendy didn’t just help find a house; she helped my mom start a new chapter. One of the most touching moments was when Wendy gifted my mom a beautiful wall hanging for her new home, symbolizing her fresh start. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant the world to her (and to me, too!). If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares and will go the extra mile, I can’t recommend Wendy Anderson and NextHome Next Stepp highly enough! "

" "Humans over houses" isn't just a tag line. Wendy and her office live this daily. Ashland is certainly fortunate to have them in town helping the community. "

- Adam Bracken

" What a great experience Wendy provided for me while purchasing a new home from a different state. She gave me the time to view houses from her phone on FaceTime then was available to walk through with my daughter as well. I made an offer on a house without physically seeing it from what my daughter and Wendy showed me from their phones. Then made time for me to actually see my new house for the first time. I had numerous questions dealing with closing electronically and she walked me through the process patiently. This is one real estate agent I would highly recommend! "

- Jackie K

" I highly recommend Wendy and her brokerage. We looked at several houses and she helped us pay attention to details we might have otherwise missed. It was always clear that Wendy was advocating for us, both in the searching and buying process. When it did come time to buy, she was an incredible help navigating the process all the way through closing. She was always very prompt and thorough in her communications with us and she made the process both easy and pleasurable. "

I’ll be with you every step of the way as we get your properties sold, and I’m grateful to have clients who feel like friends. "

" A friend introduced us to Wendy to list our house and right away you could tell that she was very personable and organized. Within days of listing our house , we accepted an offer and Wendy was on top of everything even when she was out of town. She was always quick to respond back to our calls and texts and kept us informed on what was happening the whole time till it was sold. If you want someone who is passionate about what they do and is thorough, then you want Wendy!! "
