Daniel H
Dawn was AMAZING! As first time buyers we appreciated her handholding and the ability to access her easily.
Emma P.
We met Dawn in her role as a veteran elementary educator. During the purchase of our condo and sale of our lifelong home we found her to be incredibly prompt completely thorough upbeat transparent providing knowledgable guidance and navigation. Real estate is a long stressful process and Dawn is the ultimate supporter. While she is low key and down to earth she works hard 24/7 and open to random multiple contacts with on- the- spot replies. We enjoyed her sense of humor and fun very much. She was respectful of our need for privacy and health consideration especially during the pandemic. Dawn was willing to take time to investigate some complications and problem solve that we considered way above the call of duty. Dawn was a star teacher and that continued into her second career. She in NOT the cut throat used car salesperson type notorious to real estate. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Mark W
Dawn is a real go getter and super friendly. She was on top of every situation that arose during our property search.

Laurie Ann M
Dawn is a skilled and effective realtor. We felt that she always had our back when we made offers on houses built our new house but most critically when we sold our old house. Due to her skills with staging and listing the house sold in less than two days over our asking price. It really doesn't get better than that! I have already given neighbors and friends Dawn's name when they ask who our realtor was. Her skills are outstanding.
Charles F
We had a wonderful experience working with Dawn! As first time home buyers it felt a bit daunting to start the home buying process but from our first meeting with Dawn she made us feel at ease answered all of our questions and guided us through the entire process from start to finish. We could tell Dawn really cared about what our priorities in a home were and that she was willing to put in the work to help us find a perfect home. Dawn was always quick to respond and flexible with her schedule always able to get us into a showing. We never felt pressured to make an offer on a house and felt like we could work on our own timeline. When we knew we wanted to put an offer on a house that checked all of our boxes we knew we could lean on Dawn's expertise and experience. Her warm friendly and positive personality made her a joy to work with! We would highly recommend Dawn especially to first time home buyers like us!
Megan T
Dawn is the best! She helped us list our home in record speed get an above ask offer in a whopping 4 days and close early on a tight timeline. From day one she came prepped with several market reports and data points to help us determine our pricing sweet spot. She walked us through the home sale process every step of the way and answered all of our many questions 🙂 She is helpful patient and one of the most responsive professionals I've ever had the pleasure of working with. 10/10 recommend Dawn for your next home sale or purchase!

Jonathan R
I would highly recommend Dawn for all your real estate needs. She is very responsive to your questions and works tirelessly on your behalf. She is an expert stager if you are looking to sell and works with you to get your house ready to sell. When she is your buyer agent she works with you to understand your desires in a home and will look for places that fit your needs and doesn't try to sell you on a place unless it is a right fit.

Dawn took the time to get to know what I needed and wanted and focused on that rather than trying to "sell" me something. She was tireless in an extremely busy time for real estate and the market that I was looking in.

Dawn Drexler-Hilber was AMAZING throughout the whole process. She never made me feel uncomfortable and helped me every step of the way! Dawn explained everything in a way that was easy for me to understand from the making of the offer to working with the mortgage banker. This made it really easy to move into our new house in less than 2 months. Dawn was extremely helpful open transparent and reliable throughout the whole process. She really cared about us understood our needs from the very first time even giving us ideas on how to better utilize the space. Dawn was always available to answer our questions no matter the time I called/texted her. The best real estate company I have ever dealt with. Very professional experienced and helpful agents. Highly recommend. THANK YOU DAWN for everything!
Elsa Z
Dawn is an exceptional realtor. She helped us when we were looking at houses and submitted two offers in a timely and professional manner. She didn't pressure us to spend more than we wanted when a seller made a counter offer. She also helped when we decided to build. She assisted us when we were planning our new home but her skills were quite exceptional when it came time to sell our old house. Dawn helped with staging and created an attractive and accurate listing. As a result the house sold quickly. Showings started Saturday morning and we had an offer on Sunday morning for over our asking price that we quickly accepted. Dawn helped facilitate the issues that arose after the home inspection. We also had her communicate with a difficult banker on our behalf. I strongly recommend Dawn Drexler-Hilber. She addresses the stress of buying and selling houses in a calm and professional manner. She will do anything necessary to help.
Liz F
Dawn was an amazing advocate for us as we searched for our very first home! She has been a great partner throughout our homebuying experience and would be a pleasure to work with again in the future. She clearly communicates her instincts when we are about to make a mistake while also being professional and courteous and excels at knowledge of the Madison market and setting expectations for which sales to watch for or when to wait and see. Thanks to her we finally found the right place for us! We would not hesitate to recommend Dawn wholeheartedly to any homebuyer.
Jud C
Dawn was extremely easy to work with and provided a very flexible schedule to accommodate us. She is a great resource in providing local expertise that saved us a lot of effort in research time. It was an interesting ride and Dawn made it enjoyable. Dawn's passion in real estate was very evident.
