“Teske is simply the best! She has walked us through the purchase of two homes now, one in 2022 and one in 2025. We met her through a family member, which led us to work with her for the purchase of the first home. For the second home, we chose to come back to Teske because of her excellence. She is caring and professional in all that she does, and we highly recommend her for anyone buying or selling a home.”
-
“Teske went above and beyond to help us find our new home, negotiate with the builder, and made us feel welcome! Teske exceeded our expectations and has become a dear new friend.”
-
“Teske is amazing! She is thorough, responsible, knowledgeable, understanding, and caring. She took time to understand our needs, worked diligently when there were minor issues or questions, and worked hard to help get us into our home. She even helped me negotiate terms I didn't think I would get. It is clear she had our best interest in mind. I really appreciated how present she always was either in person or even via email & text--she makes you a top priority. I'm so happy I found and went with Teske. She is a wonderful realtor and a kind person.”
-
“Teske was fantastic! We started working with her October/November last year and was always fast to respond and very knowledgeable and if she didn't know something in the moment she made sure to get back to us once she found it. She was very available for showing houses and we felt her assessments of properties was very honest. We appreciated her input and would use her services again in the future.”
-
“Teske truly listened to what we were looking for and delivered. Every single thing. She even thought of things we didn't realize we cared about and we are so thankful for her expertise as it has been so long since we had purchased a home we didn't really remember the process. Quick communication, strong knowledge, and very communicative. I will recommend her to anyone I can. She is top notch.”
-
“I have known Teske for over ten years, she is someone that I trust blindly. She is an excellent resource and friend. We werent even sure if we could buy, we had received pre-approval from another source and it wasn't enought, Teske made a recommendation with a lender and we got more money, therefore were able to buy a bigger home. Teske ensured our needs were met. We would recommend Teske to all our friends and family.”

She went above and beyond to help us get our house sold and into a new home. Just before our new born came into the world. We were really stressed about not finding a home in time but Teske stayed on top of everything for us. She really took the load off our shoulders. Words really couldn't describe how satisfied we are with her and her team. Couldn't have done it without them. Thank you Teske & Century 21!!”

“Without Teske Vance of Century 21 Signature Real Estate, I could not have made it to the finish line. When I naively began my home buying journey over 10 months ago, I sincerely believed that I would just be hooking an old teammate and good friend from high school up with a seller-paid commission. I knew exactly which house/s I wanted in exactly which subdivision. It checked all the boxes of New Construction, correct school feeder, and location, and it had all of the amenities I demanded. Plus, I had already signed a Purchase Agreement, and I genuinely thought it would be a rather quick home buying process. Somehow, that assumption could not have been further from reality. That anticipated 400m brutal sprint turned into a significantly much more grueling 10-month-long marathon/steeplechase hybrid than I ever could have imagined. There is absolutely no way I could have made it out of this homebuying transaction with my sanity, had it not been for Teske (and my Lender). Teske's poise and expertise when I wanted to lose my mind over the ridiculousness that transpired over the last three weeks prior to Closing were paramount. She calmly listened when I vented, she cheerled when I wanted to quit, she laughed at the memes I created about my setbacks, and she still had plenty of customer service voice left over to negotiate with the Builder when all I wanted to do was scream. I would not have this key in my hand right now, had it not been for Teske. I cannot thank her enough. Teske, you are an amaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzing Realtor, and you are an even better friend!!!!”
-
“After initially meeting with Teske and discussing what I was looking for and what she had to offer in regards to experience/knowledge, I knew she was the perfect person to help me find my first home. Teske was always prompt and forthcoming with any and all information. She put me at ease throughout the entire process. Teske goes above and beyond in all regards. She was open to looking at anything I suggested no matter how big of a long shot it was. She was also great about thinking outside of the box to find me more houses to think about. When I'm ready to sell this house and buy my next house I will definitely reach out to Teske again. And if anyone I know is looking for an agent I will definitely recommend her!”
-
“I cannot say enough about the job Teske did in helping us find our dream home and marketing/selling our previous home. She was knowledgeable on the market, gave us all the important information, and answered all our questions along the way. She was simply the best, I recommend her as a real estate agent in every way!”
-
“She was fast, responsive, knowledgeable, the very best I could have ever asked for.”
-
“Teske was on it consistently. Great help and kicked ass.”
-
“I have known Teske for about seven years. When we made the decision to sale our home, I knew that there was no one else I would trust with this process. First because it was a bittersweet decision, and more than a Realtor I needed a friend. Teske was that friend. She listened, understood, and gave her advice. I knew that her advice was not only wearing her Realtor hat, but also a friend hat. She made the process stress free, offering to assist me with as much as she could, giving room to process the emotions of selling our forever home. Thank you Teske for being who you are and being there every step of the way, even when the tears rolled.”
-
“Completely satisfied w everything Teske did for us! The whole thing couldn't have gone better.”
-
“Teske Vance was a perfect fit for me. She was helpful on every level. Knowledgeable, kind, patient and helpful. She had it all! I would make little comments and she would really listen and adjust what we looked at accordingly. I'm really happy with the whole process. Thank you Teske!”
-
“I wouldn’t have wanted to go through this process with anyone else. Teske’s positive and cheerful attitude made the process less stressful. She is responsive and communicates everything clearly. She works hard to ensure you get the best deal possible.”
-
“Teske was a joy to work with. She was prompt and communicative regarding all the showings we went to. Teske had a very clear picture of what I wanted and found a place that wasn’t even on my radar in the exact location I was looking for and in my budget. We toured it and I knew I had found my dream home. She is very knowledgeable about the metro area and the home buying process. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.”
-
“Teske is the perfect realtor, especially for first-time homebuyers”
-
“Teske was by far the most helpful and communicative agent we have ever dealt with. She was always offering to take care of things and call people whenever something came up. She was available constantly and got back to me by email/text/call very quickly. She was open and honest about all our options and gave us the time to think through our decisions and make the choice that worked best for us and then really helped us navigate through everything with the sale. Even our seller said she was great to work with.”
-
“I found myself suddenly in need of a realtor in an area outside of Des Moines. I contacted my previous agent and she said she would like to connect me with another realtor who could help with the showings, etc since I wasn't in Des Moines. This realtor's name was Teske Vance. From the very first text message with her, I knew I was pretty much dealing with my previous realtor because it had the same friendly feeling. Teske took charge of everything to setting up house viewings to all the paperwork needed and inspection and communication with the seller's realtor of the house I chose. Teske would send texts periodically stating that she is here for me, so just reach out with any needs or questions or one to say looks like everything is progressing on schedule plus updates on inspections. I would recommend Teske Vance to anyone looking for a great agent to help them with buying a house. She is attentive to what you are looking for and helps in any way that she can. I am very impressed with Teske.”
