Testimonials

I have had the privilege of working with Ida on two different occasions. She made the whole process of both buying and selling my house almost effortless. I never had to worry about what was next. She was always on top of it.

Ida was able to help me find a home that was under construction and not yet listed. Definitely helped us find a home that was new and to our liking which would have sold very quickly otherwise.

Ida is a trusted realtor with great local knowledge who helped us both purchase and sell our house. She took the time to listen and consider our interest and took the stress out of selling our home. She has amazing people skills. She always provided easy-to-understand explanations to our questions which made for a smooth process.

Ida was great. She spent multiple days showing us homes when my wife and I visited. After visiting and deciding that none of the homes that we toured met our expectations, Ida continued to send us extremely detailed videos of other homes as they came available after my wife and I returned home to separate states. Eventually, Ida found a home that we loved and ended up purchasing. Ida understands her clients and is attentive to their needs and wants. She is extremely knowledgeable of the local area and is well versed in the VA loan process. We were referred to Ida and my wife and I would recommend her to anyone as well, especially active-duty military!

Ida is a true professional with outstanding knowledge of the Kitsap area. She came highly recommended to us, and she more than delivered. With Ida's help, we were able to get the property in outstanding shape and ready for listing even though we were located across the country and the property had been rented out for 2 years prior to listing. And after just 1 weekend on the market, we had multiple offers above the list price. Ida was a pro in working with multiple realtors to get the right offer at the right time.

Ida is a true pro who will fight for you. She's responsive and will tell you what you need to know when you need to know it. We highly recommend her to buyers and sellers.

Ida was the most knowledgeable, caring, and proactive realtor we could have asked for. We sold our home in Bremerton during the beginning of the pandemic. This situation was new to us all, but Ida had a plan for listing, showing, and handling offers. She helped us to get our home ready to list and made sure that we sold our home for top dollar. I would recommend her to everyone I know! I just wish I could take her to every town I move to! Thanks again, Ida!

Ida Bear was recommended by a friend and she did not disappoint. Being a first-time potential homeowner did not know what to expect. Ida has a tried and true process from beginning to end that works. The first conversation was excellent talked about what I wanted and most importantly she listens and lets you explain in your own way what kind of home you would like to purchase. Ida will send you potential homes and select the ones you would love to see. Now the fun starts!!! Ida's experience and working knowledge really go into overdrive pointing out things at the potential homes that are good and possibly may be an issue. Having never bought a home Ida is perfect!! Ida's knowledge is immense and the amount of people she knows in the real estate business will without a doubt help you get the home you want. Ida is professional and a delight to work with. From putting in the offer to the home inspection she makes the process seamless. Ida tells you that you can call her with any questions sometimes she is busy with other clients but will call you back. It's amazing to meet someone who genuinely cares about your experience of buying a home and it shows. No pressure to put in an offer for a certain home just lets you decide what you want. I am fortunate that I got to meet and work with Ida Bear to purchase my home. I would recommend her to anyone who has the want or desire to purchase or sell a home. If I were to sell or purchase another home Ida Bear would be the only real estate agent I would use. Believe me, Ida is Exceptional!!!

We are so glad that we decided to work with Ida to buy our 1st home. The whole process was brand new to us and more complicated since we were shopping from out of state. Ida taught us so much about real estate and was a tremendous resource throughout the entire process. We truly felt like she had our backs and her only goal was to help us find the right home. We fully trusted Ida every step of the way and enjoyed the weekend we spent touring Kitsap county with her. She has tons of local knowledge and is diligent, efficient, and an all-around pleasure to work with. I have already recommended her to 2 friends looking to buy soon.

If you are looking for a home in Kitsap County (and beyond), Ida is the person to go to. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable about the market in this area, but she is patient and fun to boot! We took a lot of time trying to find the right fit for us and Ida was there for us every step of the way, all the way through closing. I 100% believe we could not have done this process without her and my husband and I found ourselves saying frequently "thank goodness we have Ida". Call her!
