GET the inside track on Cedar Valley real estate

WATCH A MESSAGE FROM JIM BROWN BELOW

Hello, I'm Jim Brown.

Cedar Falls has been my home for over 35 years.
Now, I'm here to help you find yours.

I've had a fulfilling career in business development and public service — including serving as Mayor of Cedar Falls and leading the Cedar Falls Economic Development Corporation — and now I’m excited to begin a new chapter in real estate.

Helping people is what I’ve always done. Whether it was through schools, city hall, or community development, my focus has always been connecting people with the resources they need to succeed.

Now, I’d love to do the same for you — whether you're buying your first home, selling your current one, or just exploring your options.

  • Deep Local Knowledge

I know Cedar Falls and the Cedar Valley inside and out — the neighborhoods, the schools, the businesses, and most of all, the people.

  • Trusted Connections

Over the years, I’ve built relationships with hundreds of local stakeholders, leaders, and professionals. If you need a lender, contractor, inspector, or neighborly advice — I’ve got you covered.

  • A Fair, Caring Approach

Real estate is personal. My promise is to make the process transparent, fair, and guided by what’s best for you and your family.

What does "home" mean to you?

Whether you’re planting new roots or letting go of a house filled with memories — this move matters.

And with the right guidance, it can be one of the best decisions you’ve ever made.

What if I told you that you could buy or sell with clarity — without pressure, without guesswork, and without feeling like you're doing it alone?

Sounds rare, right? But that’s exactly what happens when you work with someone who’s lived, led, and built in Cedar Falls for over 35 years.

I'm your neighbor, former Mayor, and now, your dedicated real estate guide. I’ve helped grow this city from every angle — and now, I’m ready to help you make your next move.

Buying?

"Zillow Browsing" is one strategy, but...

I’ll help you get clear on budget, location, and timing — based on your life, not a Zestimate.

Selling?

Most sellers leave money on the table, but...

I’ll show you how to position your home to stand out

Many feel lost and alone in the process, but...

I’ll connect you with my trusted network of lenders, contractors, inspectors, and neighbors — so nothing falls through the cracks.

Let’s Be Real

Most Real Estate Experiences Look Like This:

  • Endless Listings

    — with no idea which ones are even worth seeing

  • Pushy Agents

    — focused on commissions, not your life

  • Confusion About Value

    — unsure if it’s the right time, price, or strategy

It's common for people to go this route, but I'm here to save you time, effort and frustration...

You Deserve Better

I Do It Differently:

  • Clarity & Guidance

    from someone who knows this community inside and out

  • Honest Conversations

    — not pressure

  • Proven Local Knowledge

    — that helps you avoid costly mistakes
