The Absolute Best Realtor Experience!
We recently worked with Julie for both the sale of our house and the purchase of our next home, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. We initially hired her for her reputation, stayed with her for her professionalism, and ultimately fell in love with her for her thoughtfulness and kindness.
Julie turned what is typically a stressful and overwhelming process into something smooth and systematic. Her expertly prepared checklists and customized timelines were invaluable. She was also speedy about creating all necessary documents, which kept the process moving perfectly. Her list of recommended and trusted vendors was extremely helpful on both the selling and buying sides.
Stress-Free Selling
With two young children and dogs, we were worried about the hassle of listing, clean-up, and maintenance for showings, especially with our jobs that did not offer flexibility for popping home at a moments notice to tidy up. Julie quickly secured several off-market interests, landing us an incredible off-market deal that meant we sold our home without all the usual stress—a lifesaver!
Dedicated Buying Support
On the buying side, Julie was impressively available and quick to respond to all of our needs. Given her reputation and client list, we knew she was working with many others, yet we consistently felt like we were her only client. She answered every phone call and text immediately, making us feel like her number one priority at all times. When negotiating and submitting offers, her fast action was essential. She was there every step of the way, offering expert advice on potential properties and attending home inspections and document signings.
Above and Beyond Thoughtfulness
Beyond her incredible work ethic, Julie surprised us with truly thoughtful and personal touches that went above and beyond: personalized letters, a Bearenstein Bears book about moving for our toddler, a photo book of our house at closing, a home inspection kit, and gift baskets/cards at move-in, among several other thoughtful moments/ideas.
We cannot recommend Julie enough. She is truly an amazing realtor and a lovely person whom we very much enjoyed talking to and seeing regularly throughout this journey. If you want the best, hire Julie!

We are writing this review to express our heartfelt gratitude for our realtor, Julie Bowman. While it may sound cliché, we truly could not have sold our home without her expert guidance. After living in our house for over 30 years, we were unaware of the complexities involved in the selling process. Having heard from friends about Julie's exceptional talent and impressive sales record, we reached out to her a year before listing our home. From the outset, Julie was available to us with unwavering support. She compassionately and knowledgeably guided us through each step of the process.
Julie provided invaluable insights on necessary renovations and helped us prepare our home to present it as an appealing and spacious property, especially in an unpredictable market. When we felt overwhelmed by unforeseen challenges, Julie remained positive, calm and offered practical solutions. Her empathetic demeanor and innovative thinking were crucial, as we were both managing demanding full-time jobs. Rather than pushing us, Julie educated us about all available options, empowering us to make informed decisions. Her extensive network proved to be an incredible resource during our preparations. The renovations she recommended significantly increased the value of our home, allowing us to sell it for a price we had never imagined.
Her organization, communication, and follow-through were outstanding. We are especially grateful for Julie's support and endless kindness as we navigated not just a move to a different neighborhood, but an out-of-state transition. Anyone seeking a strong recommendation for Julie Bowman is welcome to contact her directly to get our cell phone numbers for a first-hand reference. Julie turned our dream of selling our home at a great price into a reality, earning our deep respect, admiration, and appreciation.

Trust Julie to sell your home! Julie was a consummate and skilled professional. She really knows the market and knows exactly what you should do and not do to your home to sell it quickly and for the most money the market will bear. We were so impressed with Julie's use of online advertising, social media and online agent networking. Julie also advised us on what changes to make and which changes not to bother with before our house went on the market, saving us money and time. Julie's use of a professional photographer for the listing helped showcase our house at it's best! She had agents and buyers interested in our house before it even hit the market. Our house sold in three days after we got multiple offers for above asking price. Listen to Julie - she really knows what she's talking about and will work hard to sell your house. We're sure glad she was ours! :)

Julie is the ABSOLUTE best! She was extremely patient through all our starts and stops of the home buying and selling process. She listened, provided information in a clear and concise way, and was always super quick to respond. This can be a very stressful process and we were so grateful to have Julie on our team. She helped us navigate a difficult buyer’s market to find our dream home. She also provided concrete steps for us to prepare our house to sell, and because of her guidance, it sold extremely quickly and for a better price than we imagined! If you are looking for an agent, you won’t find anyone who does it better and really supports her clients. I will be recommending her to anyone I know moving in the Sterling area!
Julie is hands-down AMAZING! She goes above and beyond to help her clients every step of the way. Selling our home was a breeze thanks to her! She is thorough, professional, responsive, the list goes on! I would HIGHLY recommend Julie to anyone looking to buy or sell! The next time we need a realtor, we will be calling Julie! THANK YOU!

Gosh! I don’t even know where to begin because there are so many positives about having Julie as my realtor. I’ll start with that I highly recommend Julie Bowman if you are on the lookout for a new home. Julie was recommended to me by a friend, and I am so grateful for that. She lives in the area I was looking, so Julie was extremely knowledgeable of the area and surrounding areas. She is prompt in responding to questions I had, and was always available to tour homes. After she learned more about me and what I was looking for she would send me listings to make sure I had seen or checked it out. I was new at this and sort of at it solo, so Julie became someone that I fully trusted and valued her opinion, especially when I was hesitant or questioning something. She is so organized and emailed reminders and lists of all the things that needed to be done at certain, which was so helpful. You knew you wouldn’t miss deadline, especially when getting closer to the closing. She became a friend to me, and I was sad when the process was over, but SO HAPPY that she was able to help me find the PERFECT house! I found JUST what I was looking for! Call Julie! You will NOT regret it! And before you know it you’ll being living in your dream home!
Buying or selling a home can be extremely difficult. Doing so simultaneously adds to the tension and requires the assistance of a knowledgeable and trusted realtor – one whose ultimate goal is customer satisfaction and not just a quick commission.
Having recently gone through this process, I have no reservation in highly recommending Julie Bowman. With Julie’s counsel and expertise, the process went incredibly smoothly. She helped us every step of the way. At times, she seemed to read our minds and anticipated our questions or concerns before we even formulated them. She is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to work with. She walked us through every decision we made and provided timely feedback, which is so important when making such life changing transactions. I can’t overstate our satisfaction with working with her!
