Testmonials

After living on our acreage for over 35 years, we asked Jim Shores for help in selling all f our acquired excess personal property. We were extremely pleased with his professionalism. Jim and his staff handled all of the organization, setup, photography, the online auction, money collection and pickup of everything we sold. We literally did not have to do anything. Jim definitely reduced our stress and moving concerns. We were extremely pleased with our online auction, and with Jim and his staff.

I wanted to write this letter to let you know how satisfied I am with your services. I have been involved with your company for over twenty years and have had your assistance in conducting the police auctions. You also conducted the estate auction after my husband passed away. I have always been satisfied with all of the people that have helped me, from the auctioneers to all of the people that made sure things were done correctly and that everything went smoothly.
When I decided to move to North Platte, I had Jim Shores as my Realtor. He was a pleasure to work with and answered all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns. I found the house I was looking for and the whole buying process was a pleasure even through some of the bumps along the way. I also had Jim help me with the sale of my home in Brady. Jim always kept in touch with me and made sure I was able to sell my home quickly and easily.
I would recommend your company to anyone looking for auction and realty services. Everyone is so professional, polite, helpful, and have a great sense of humor. I have truly enjoyed working with you. Thank you. It is always a pleasure.

My family and I were very impressed with Jim Shores when we met with him to put my mom's house on the market. Jim went through the house and took measurements and notes, and he answered our questions. He was very professional and upfront with us. He understood taht mom had no money for repairs and inspections, etc., and understood that we wanted the house sold "as is".

He went over a comparable with us. He met with us on our time, knowing that I was from out of state, and he brought everything to us at the location instead of having to make extra arrangements for rides to his office (I didn't have a car and my daughter worked). When I was not in town, he met with my daughter where ever she might be, to deliver papers that I might need to help expediate our requests.

The house was listed for $65,000 and sold for $60,000, which we were very happy with because of the condition of the house. Mom was on Medicaid and they needed to know why the house did not sell for assessed value. Jim wrote a letter for me to send to Medicaid explaining why we got what we did and gave his number if they had any questions.

In our opinion, Jim went well above and beyond in his duties during the listing and sale of our mom's home.

My family and I would recommend Jim to anyone needing a realtor.

To the auction team at Gateway, we couldn't be happier with the results of our auction. All we had to do was tell them what we wanted sold and they did the rest, which included cataloging, taking pictures, putting it all online, and supervising the auction. On the day of pick up, everything ran so smooth because they were so well organized. We highly recommend this type of downsizing. The way the auction is run, we feel we got better results than we would have through a regular auction.

I contacted Jim Shores, Auctioneer for Gateway Realty Auction, to set-up an Online Moving Auction. I cannot find enough words of thanks to Jim, Diana Newtson and staff. Every step of the process was handled with professionalism and respect for my items. I am very pleased and satisfied with the final outcome, exceeded my expectations!

Donna & I want to Thank You for assisting us in the sale of our cabin at Jeffrey Lake.

Living almost 200 miles, one way from the cabin, would have made it very difficult for us to attempt to sell the cabin with out your professional assistance.

We appreciated your scheduling the open houses and sincerely appreciate your follow up on those visitors to our cabin. Your response time as to actual visitors who showed a sincere interest in the cabin was outstanding.

I personally appreciated your keeping me informed through Faxes and E Mail.

I attempted to follow up on the electronic correspondence within 24 hours and you were as prompt in replying back to Donna & I. We were "impressed".

Donna & I would highly recommend you to anyone seeking to sell or looking to purchase, to contact you for your professional assistance!

If Donna & I would decide after retiring to look at Jeffrey Lake as a "get away" from our home, you will be the first person we will contact!

"Thanks Jim"
