About

Hi! I'm Leah, a Council Bluffs native and licensed real estate agent in Iowa and Nebraska. I'm the Team Leader of Fairway Real Estate Group, a small real estate team at Berkshire Hathaway Ambassador Real Estate. My niches include helping first-time buyers navigate the home buying process and working with sellers to get top dollar for their homes. I'm also an investor-friendly agent!
My mission in real estate is to do things the "Fair Way" and to make the home buying and selling process as smooth and easy for you as possible. I also like to think outside the box with lending options for buyers and find creative ways to market the home for sellers.
If you meet me, you'll see I'm bubbly, outgoing, and genuine. My clients appreciate my transparency and I like to "keep it real". I pride myself on being responsive and available for my clients, whether evenings, weekends, or holidays.
When I'm not watching my kids play sports, I enjoy traveling, playing golf, or trying a new restaurant.

Ratings & Reviews

Keri Novacek

Leah was an unexpected surprise! We were going to go with someone else and she showed up to help us tour our now new home. It was as if we knew her for years and she researched the property ahead of showing us so she could answer any questions we might have. She was good at pointing out anything we might have not thought of. She also gave us a follow up text letting us know what she thought our old house would sell at. This was before we even decided to have her be our realtor. We ended up selling our house over the asking price and she was available at every turn. She was not pushy and always had our best interest in mind. She worked well with the other agent and lending company so that everyone had a smooth experience. We highly recommend Leah.

Leah made our first time buying a home a breeze. Not having been through the process before it was really important to us that we had a realtor that we felt had our best interest in mind. Leah went above and beyond to ensure that we were well informed on all of the options we had, and gave us excellent advice on what was in our best interest. If you’re a first time home buyer I doubt you could find yourself in better hands than Leah’s. I’m certain the same could be said for anyone looking to purchase a home.

Leah was absolutely the best agent we have ever had the pleasure of working with. She was very helpful and knowledgeable of everything. We wish her much success and feel that we have a new friend. We give her 10 stars because 5 isn't enough. Thank you

Leah helped me sell my home while living out of state. I leaned on her for everything from start to finish. She even helped me line up a contractor for some last minute inspection repairs. She is super personable, knowledgeable and straight forward with great communication. I would recommend her to everyone.

Taylor Loy

I had a great experience with Leah as my realtor! As a first time homebuyer, she made me feel comfortable and confident. Leah is knowledgeable on every step of the home buying process. Her communication was also great and she was available any time I had a question. I found the perfect home for me working with Leah!
