Pickens, Steve
I'm a third-generation Kansan and a four-decade resident of western Johnson County. I've worked in real estate for two decades and have watched towns like Olathe, Lenexa, and Overland Park grow into thriving, dynamic places to live, work, and play. I have an extensive background in rehabbing and renting out homes, so there are few problems I can't fix! Selling real estate is more than putting a sign in the yard.

My knowledge of the business and current market conditions enables me to serve your interests to the fullest extent. My wife and I still live in the same house we bought as newlyweds. We love it and don't want to ever move. That being said, we dealt with a realtor who can only be described as lacking.
Services
Steve sold our house in record time! It was amazing! He also worked diligently to find a rental and a primary residence that we purchased. He is persistent and creative when tackling any issues that often come up when selling & buying homes. Would highly recommend him! Steve was extremely helpful in helping us move to the KC area.
I specialize in six West Olathe neighborhoods: Bridlewood Downs, Maplebrook Park, Clearwater Creek, Shadow Ridge, Prairie Brook Villas, and Stratton Oak Villas. There are 1,000 houses in these six neighborhoods, and they cover every type of home you could desire. I try to periodically update my neighborhoods' sales activity.

Steve is awesome! I’m so glad I chose him as my realtor. He went above and beyond in helping me sell my home. He was attentive to my needs and concerns, and very patient with all my questions. He truly cares about his clients as people. He was a blessing to me in a stressful process, and I highly highly recommend him to anyone. He started as a stranger, became my realtor, and ended up a friend. Thank you Steve!

We bought our first home through Steve and the whole process was a breeze with him. He took care of everything and made us feel like his only clients whenever he worked with us. He was totally honest and up front when it came to any issues with the houses we looked and wanted to make sure we got the right house for us and not just get us in quick. I would recommend Steve to anyone looking for a home

My mom was downsizing and trying to get into a maintenance free house. Steve was recommended and he was a godsend. He helped my mom in every aspect of buying her new house and selling her old one. He always kept us both informed and was always looking out for her best interest. He was always very responsive. I would absolutely use him again if the occasion ever arises.

My older brother Steve had helped my wife and I, plus a number of close friends with purchasing and selling of our homes. He’s a guy you can trust and will have your back!

Steve exceeded my expectations guiding us through the emotional strain of buying and selling. What stood out most to me was his thoroughness while assessing the home - he didn't walk in and show me the granite counter tops, he went straight to the basement to understand how the home was constructed. There's a difference between truly understanding construction versus walking in and talking about cosmetic items. For that, I have recommended him to several friends and family. Good job Steve!
