"Joel and Julie are an amazing team! They helped us sell our home and buy a new one. We loved working with them and they made the whole process move smoothly. They are quick to respond to any and all questions, they communicated what step we were at during the whole process, helped us with a list of items we needed to complete before listing our home so we were ready to show and sell asap, the scheduling system for showings was very convenient, and their knowledge of any situation that might arise when handling real estate transactions was outstanding . Their kindness, knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail made it possible for us to sell our first home and move to our dream location!"

My wife and I have been married for 20 years and I’m the lucky father to 4 wonderful kids! My background is in physical therapy in many different settings. I worked as a physical therapist assistant for 7 years, but with the changes in the field of PT I thoughtfully and prayerfully made the decision to become a REALTOR and now an Associate broker. My father has been a broker in both Oregon and Idaho for over 25 years. His approach is down to earth being from a farming community but he’s known across the valley for honesty and integrity...for just being himself. Watching his career I knew that I would still be able to help people and provide great customer service as a REALTOR. Something I greatly enjoyed about physical therapy was simply meeting the needs of my patients. My family and I are community minded so we’ve been quite busy participating in city events such as having a booth at the Trunk or Treat night creating a float representing our brokerage for our city’s winter parade attending Coffee with the Mayor events and sponsoring the Meridian Mayor's Prayer Breakfast, the JEM Friends Gala and iSwag drama performances as we work to establish our presence as servants of our city. Bottom-line I’m very motivated to provide incredible service to those choosing to make the Greater Boise Area home. I’m a family man. I’m down to earth like my father. And the Idaho way of life is our passion.
Bailey Schmidt

bailey@rogprofessionals.com
My name is Bailey and a little while ago I moved to the Treasure Valley to be closer to my family so I understand the stresses of relocating. I spent a lot of my time before real estate working as a horse trainer and traveling across the U.S. showing horses. After I relocated to Idaho I felt it was time to change my career as well. My favorite part about real estate is building relationships with my clients and being there the moment that they achieve their goals. My passion for horses never went away and when I'm not working you will likely find me at the barn riding my horse or spending time with my dog. I would love to connect with you for your real estate needs and no dream is too wild for this country girl to handle.

michelle@rogprofessionals.com
Hello there, it’s my pleasure to connect with you. My name is Michelle Budwee, born and raised Idaho Native. Currently residing in Canyon County I was raised in Kuna for the first 17 years of my life so am very familiar with our Treasure of a Valley. Simply an “Idaho Girl” growing up loving all things outdoor and active, I spent 10 years in gymnastics moving on to cheerleading for the next 7. I love spending time with family and friends, camping, paddle boarding, swimming, S'mores by the fire, and playing fetch with my pup. I’ve always had a passion for serving others including early career work as a CNA and, equally rewarding, coaching and teaching youth when I had the honor of directing a recreational gymnastics program in Nampa. My early career gave me extensive experience in customer service and reinforced my love to assist and support others to succeed and achieve their goals!. FUN FACT: I also worked as a mason, yep the ones that break and stack rocks to make things like fireplaces and retaining walls look cool. So, I’m also very familiar with the choreographed chaos that is a new construction site. Inspired and encouraged by people close to me in the profession of real estate I realized this career was a perfect fit for my passions, experience and personality. Often described as “competitive and sassy” (in a good way) I’m ready to put my experience and zeal to work for you. So here I am, your friendly professional REALTOR® ready to serve!

Our family highly recommends Andy Coleman for ALL your real estate needs!"
by Kristin Cromwell"Melissa G. and Sarah P were my real estate agents in the Charter Pointe subdivision when I bought my house. I am an inactive agent myself so when I say they did a good job, I know what I'm talking about. The seller was a bit whiny and demanding, the seller's agent was unorganized, tried taking shortcuts, and dragged her feet throughout the whole deal but my buying agents Meli and Sariah, handled them with great patience and professional courtesy picking up the slack from the other side. Meli even went the extra mile and helped me clean the house afterwards while she was 8 months pregnant!!! They are a great team for sure."
by Adam & Julie Carlson"Realty One was great! Answered all my questions honestly and I felt like they were in my corner. I would definitely recommend working with this group if you are a potential home buyer/seller."

by Jonathan Meldrum"Helped? us find the right house for us It was kind of a crazy time in the housing market, but in spite of tough conditions Cydnie tirelessly worked with us. I felt a little guilty that we kept looking at SO MANY houses, but Cydnie never made us feel like a bother. She kept hunting until we found the right house for us. I was pretty excited that we managed to get a bargain too! She was really helpful and proactive when we had some issues with inspection/contingencies. She knows what she is doing and we would recommend her to anyone."
