Brett Sherwood - Testimonials

Tell Us Your Story

Brett worked diligently to help us find the right place.

The process took longer than I had expected but Brett was patient and helpful throughout. Even after the sale he has continued to be helpful in a variety of ways. I would not hesitate to recommend him to any one seeking to buy a home.

First of all, thank you so much for your incredible hospitality and professionalism.

Brett, you are assuredly the best realtor with whom I have ever worked. Your ability to organize our days, be flexible to our changes, listen carefully to our comments, keep your opinions to yourself but be ever ready to provide them when asked, thoroughly research and provide pertinent information, respond to and anticipate our questions and be an all around delightful person with whom to spend a few days are some of the traits we most valued. We can’t thank you enough for devoting your time so generously to us.

Brett should be your go-to-guy when looking to purchase a home in North Idaho.

We had been looking at homes and properties in the area for about 5 years. Sold our home out of state in October 2022 and decided to travel the US full-time in our RV and visit other states to see if there were any other towns we were interested in. After visiting 30 states we realized, for us, nothing compares to the beauty and lifestyle that North Idaho has to offer. So we got in touch with Brett while we were still on the East Coast, he set us up on MLS Search based on our criteria and we started looking at homes while on our way back west. Had a few homes in mind that we wanted to look at so we met up with Brett to tour the homes. Brett is knowledgeable and quickly understood what we were looking for. He looked at homes from our viewpoint and gave us honest feedback and things to consider. Although we didn't find what we were looking for on that trip, a few weeks later a home popped up so Brett went to the house and did a video walkthrough for us. He sent lots of photos and obtained additional information on the new construction from the sellers agent and we ended up purchasing the home. Brett really went above and beyond, providing us assistance and timely updates along the way as we were still out of state. If you're looking for a knowledgable, honest, kind and hard working agent give Brett a call.

Brett is a wealth of knowledge as he provided his real estate expertise by finding us our 1st home with ease.

He is very professional and personable. He looks at the best interest as it was his. When we were searching for our 1st house, he guided us through the whole experience with much information that helped us make the right decision. Our trust is on Brett and he did not disappoint, until to this day we will put our trust on him. We went through the home buying process with no worries! Brett is an excellent person with great personality. He listens and communicates accordingly. I highly recommend him as a real estate agent! When you have Brett as an agent, you know you are in good hands! Thank you Brett! We will be working with you again!

Great experience.

Went the extra mile to show us houses even when we couldn’t be physically present. Made an extra effort once we were able to get in the area to show us everything we needed to know about the area.

Brett was an AMAZING realtor!

I purchased my home from him in a market with crazy bidding wars, multiple offers pushing prices well above asking, in a market that demanded responsiveness and attention to detail. Brett exceeded my expectations with his energy, knowledge, and ability to go the extra ten miles to get the job done!! Choosing Brett as the realtor to represent you is my recommendation.

Working with Brett was an extremely satisfying experience!

He was very patient and understanding of desires we expressed for what we were looking for in a new home and went the extra mile to ensure we had the answers to any questions about the local area, and zoning regulations/requirements/permitting in reference to building a future workshop at the house as well. Brett was a true pleasure to work with as he constantly communicated with us and never failed to return our calls or answer any questions or address any potential concerns we may have had. Brett made us feel like family and even offered to assist in helping us get our household goods moved into our new house. My wife and I would highly recommend Brett to anyone who is interested in buying a home in northern Idaho.

Brett was great to work with on the purchase of our new house.

He helped us narrow down which area of North Idaho, would suit our needs best. He was always prompt to communicate with us. He quickly identified what types of properties we were looking for. He went the extra mile in checking on permits and city ordinances. We highly recommend Brett.

Brett went above and beyond while helping us with our home purchase in North Idaho.

He was always responsive and willing to represent us during inspections and meetings with local contractors as we were in Arizona and not able to attend in person. He is knowledgeable and friendly, and we felt comfortable with him right away. We would definitely recommend Brett as a real estate professional.

"Brett was a fabulous partner to my wife and I during our house search. We were moving from out of state, and so his knowledge of the local market was priceless. We met up for two days and he drove us around looking at a selection of houses. After the first few, he instinctively knew which ones would work for us and which wouldn't, and edited the later showings accordingly. He was friendly yet professional at all times, and really understands the local real estate market. During each showing, I never once felt like he wanted to sell us a particular house; rather, he wanted us to have the RIGHT house at the RIGHT price. He steered us tactfully and thoughtfully away from deals that would have been messy, and in the end, we ended up getting a great property at a very fair price. His help didn't stop on the run up to closing, either (or even after). He's gone above and beyond to help us get some logistics down until we actually move, helping us sort power, Internet, checking on the house for us... you name it, he was there for us. We couldn't have done it without him, and feel like we've already made one friend in our new town :)If you need the help of a great realtor and want to feel like a person (as opposed to a paycheck) reach out to Brett. I would work with again in a heartbeat."

"Brett was amazing to work with - very responsive and great knowledge of the local market. Unlike other agents we've worked with, he truly cared about finding a property that was right for us, rather than just saying whatever would be likely to result in a commission as soon as possible. We ended up buying a house that we love, and Brett's advice on negotiating strategy was instrumental in us getting the property. Brett also connected us with some great local contractors for the improvements that we want to make to the house going forward. I highly recommend Brett!"

"Brett was a referral from my loan officer and was highly recommended. After working with Brett for a short period of time and then closing on the property with his help through the process, it was clear why he was a top referral. Brett followed up very quickly with documents and inquiries making it easier to decide on property choices. Brett is committed and easy to work with in finding the property you are seeking!"

"We would highly recommend Brett. He is very knowledgeable of the area and easy to work with. He was great about communicating with us throughout the process and was always looking out for our best interest. He took his time showing us several properties and was very patient. He went above and beyond. Brett also has a great team of people that he works with. Like Brett, everyone he recommended was fantastic. This made the process so much easier on us. We will definitely be using Brett for any future real estate needs we have in the North Idaho area."

"We were so fortunate to have worked with Brett. My husband and I had a short window of time to look at several properties in North ID and Brett spent several, tireless, full days with us unveiling every area that we were interested in. Prior to our arrival he continuously kept in communication with us. He was patient with us and was able to quickly adjust the itinerary as needed. We finally settled on a property that was a hidden gem and not exactly on our radar. He happily guided us through the purchase negotiations and was able to iron out all wrinkles and get us everything we wanted for under asking. He took the helm several times when we were not able to physically be there. He is still helping us with things that pop up from time to time even though we’ve closed. Not only is Brett a true professional but now a friend. We look forward to working with him again in the future as we now have family members who may also want to move to the North ID area."

"Brett Sherwood is more than a realtor. He is an asset in a variety of ways. He can suggest tradespeople, gardeners, lenders, movers, and more. Brett sold us our first home in CDA in 2025. We loved the home....but after living there several months we decided we wanted to spend a bit more to be even closer to town and also be in the Historic District. Brett made it happen. First, we had to sell our existing CDA home AND we had to find a seller who would agree to wait for us to sell our existing CDA home, in a softer market, since winter arrived. It took several months but we found a buyer for the old house and Brett worked magic to have the sellers of our new home stay committed to us, despite the passage of several months. In the end we got our new home in CDA and we are thrilled.Brett and the entire team at Living Life in North Idaho Real Estate are pleasant to work with and we are loyal to them 100%. Is this our last home? Maybe...but if not, we will definitely ask Brett Sherwood to represent us!Robert H."
