“Hands down the best realtor I've ever worked with. Matt truly cares that his clients find what they're actually looking for, not just closing a sale. On the buying side, he was great at pointing out concerning items during showings, and he was especially valuable during our blue tape walkthrough on our new house. He was clearly on our side the whole time and helped keep communication with the builder clear and moving. He also did a fantastic job selling our previous home. Matt is professional, respectful, and genuinely easy to work with. I'd recommend him to anyone buying or selling, and we'll be calling him again next time.”

Learn more about what St. Marys has to offer.
St. Marys offers its residents a welcoming hometown atmosphere, accessible amenities, and plentiful outdoor recreation within a close-knit community.
St. Marys stands out from nearby communities like West Des Moines and Norwalk by offering a quieter, more close‑knit setting while still keeping regional amenities within easy reach. Residents value the calm pace of a small town and the sense that neighbors look out for one another, yet the larger job, shopping, and dining hubs of Des Moines and Indianola are a straightforward drive away.
Families often build their routines around the Indianola-area schools, including Indianola High School, and enjoy outdoor time at nearby destinations like Banner Lakes at Summerset State Park and the McVay Trail. Everyday needs are easily handled in surrounding communities, where you will find resources such as the Indianola Public Library and regional events at the Warren County Fairgrounds.
Housing options in St. Marys range from long‑held family homes to properties with room for outbuildings and hobbies, which appeals to buyers who want space without losing connection to the Des Moines metro. For current residents preparing to sell, understanding how St. Marys compares with nearby Warren County markets can shape pricing and timing. For buyers, being ready with financing and a clear picture of priorities helps when properties are limited.
Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers in St. Marys with an experienced local real estate agent who understands the area’s pace, inventory, and timing.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. From the very beginning, I felt like I was working with someone who genuinely cared about me and what I was looking for—not just someone trying to close a deal. Isaiah was always there when I had questions, he kept me informed throughout the process, and made me feel comfortable even when things got stressful. I really appreciated his patience, honesty, and willingness to go the extra mile. Buying a home can be overwhelming, but having the right person by your side makes such a difference. I’m so grateful for all their help and for making the whole experience such a positive one. I would absolutely recommend Isaiah Thomas to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! 🏡❤️”
“Justin was very helpful and always on top of getting documents sent, answering questions, finding listings and more. He was very polite and always on time.”
“Matt was excellent throughout the entire process of helping me buy my duplex. He made the transaction incredibly smooth, took the time to walk me through every step, and was always available to answer my questions. I always felt confident knowing he was there to guide me from start to finish. What impressed me most was that his commitment didn't end after closing. I initially hired a property management company to lease the duplex, but after several months they were unable to find tenants. I reached out to Matt, and he had the property leased within a week. That really showed me how knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated he is. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients, and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again.”
“Daniel Wandling was amazing to work with, especially when it came to helping my parents find the right home. What really stood out was his ability to find an off-market property that we wouldn’t have found on our own. That made a huge difference and gave us an opportunity we didn’t even know existed. He was very professional, responsive, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. He always took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we felt confident in every decision. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to help them. I would highly recommend Daniel to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“As a first time buyer, I was nervous of what to expect from a realtor. Rob absolutely exceeded my expectations of real estate agents— from the first day we met I could tell he genuinely cared about the state of the homes we looked at. He got me an awesome basket of gifts on closing day filled with home essentials. Thank you Rob! You’re excellent!”
“Amazing!! Highly recommend!! Went above and beyond and really took the time to help us from start to finish. If you're looking for someone to help you with buying or selling don't hesitate to contact Jordan!”
“Luann, is great to work with very friendly. She made me feel comfortable and helped with each step easy. If you need a house fast go with her as she knows Waterloo very well in what areas are the best to purchase. Her office space is beautiful as well and we closed at her office. She will make you feel like a friend of hers and wants what is best for you and your home. Reach out to her for any buying or purchasing needs.”
“Lacie was amazing throughout the whole buying experience as a first-time home owner. She made every effort to keep me informed during our buying process and shown her expertise when any questions arose. When there were some questions she couldn't answer she was able to defer me to the appriorate subject-matter expert whether it was an electrician for electrical questions/work to inspection questions. She was absolutely fantastic to work with and would highly recommend her to friends and family that are looking to buy/sell now and later! Thank you Lacie Shelby for working with my partner and I. Thank you even more for making our first home purchase worth it!”
“Presley went out of her way to provide us with the best service possible. Very respectful and considerate. I would highly recommend Presley to anyone looking for property within her location to anyone. She is amazing! Cares for her clients and it shows!!!”
“Wendy Beal was knowledgeable and very proffesional. Her familiarity of the Ankeny market and current trends were of great help in setting the strategy for selling our home. We would highly recommend Wendy Beal for anybody looking to buy or sell in central Iowa.”
“She did go really far out of her way to show a house and had really good input on things we didn't notice”
“Deanna was amazing! She listened to me & understood my goals. She answered all questions & was respectful of my wants & needs. She was quick with responses & was there for me every step of the process.”
“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”
“Dakotah was amazing to work with! Dakotah was referred to us by someone and we will continue to refer him to others. Knowledgeable about the Des Moines area and homes in the area. Always felt that Dakotah was looking out for us as first time home buyers and helped us explain the home buying process in great detail. When we do decide to sell our incredible home, we will surely work with Dakotah again!”
“Roger was very responsive to our house selling & buying needs. He also presented to us additional options on other properties to consider besides the ones we found of interest to your.”
“Kelsey went above and beyond for us in every way possible and was so consistent, informative, and kind throughout our whole first time buying process. You can tell she truly loves what she does and that made our experience so much more special. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“When we inherited a house, we weren’t sure what to do next. Justin helped walk us thru the process and get a full price offer. We had a few snags along the way and Justin stepped in to handle and give advice. We appreciate Justin’s patience and responsiveness during this whole process. He was amazing and we would highly recommend!”
“I work for a new construction builder in the Des Moines metro. Crossed paths with Kristina as her buyers were looking into a townhome in Altoona. We quickly had great conversation and she simply gave me the time of day. She made me feel heard and appreciated from day 1 all the way till closing on her buyers' home. She is knowledgeable, professional, outgoing and extremely personable. I would definitely recommend her to any unrepresented buyers or friends and family. We worked extremely well together. She was awesome!”
“I am particular with what I like and don’t like. John was very patient. Each time we would look at a house he would check to see if this is what we liked, could we see ourselves in the home. Any concerns I had, John was always prompt to follow up with me. I felt like at the time I was his only client.”
