Meet Josey

I was born and raised In Carbondale, CO, and spent almost 6 years living in Manhattan, KS before moving to Marshalltown. I was a licensed real estate agent in Kansas, before moving to Iowa. Prior to real estate, I worked for several years as a dental assistant, and I owned my own business, training horses and coaching riders of all ages and competition levels. I truly love to help people in any way I can, and I am looking forward to helping as many people as possible with the biggest transaction of their lives!


Why I'm Different 

Communication and transparency are essential to a great buying or selling experience. I am very happy to be able to provide these qualities to my clients. As a Realtor, I go above and beyond to make sure my clients are informed throughout every step of the transaction and to make sure that there are no surprises along the way. With my work ethic and dedication to my clients, I'm able to understand your needs and put in the work to make sure those needs are met. I am no stranger to long hours, and I make myself available to my clients at any time of the day or night to make the process as quick and easy as possible.


I Believe in Giving Back

I spent 10 years of my youth in 4H, showing livestock and horses. It taught me many life lessons and shaped my adulthood. I strongly believe in giving back to the youth in 4H in the same way that I had so many people give to me. I love to help 4H members with their livestock and horse projects and teach members about feeding, exercising, and showing their animals. Prior to moving to Iowa, I was also able to assist in an environmental education program to coordinate and help lead field trips for school children to visit the Tallgrass Prairie in Kansas.


In My Free Time

My husband and I love to spend time outside. We enjoy tending to our garden, golfing, fishing, camping, and spending time with our three dogs. We also love to take road trips to experience new things and remote places. On Sunday mornings, you can find us at the Mosaic Church in Marshalltown.

Meet Carrie

I was born and raised in Marshalltown and still live in the area, currently living on an acreage nearby. I graduated with a degree in Practical Nursing and have worked as an LPN in Marshalltown for 25 years. With a passion for service, I am excited to be turning that focus toward real estate at Five Star Real Estate Group.


Why I'm Different

Real estate is a powerful thing. The ability to adapt to ever changing situations is one of my strengths, the importance of honesty, integrity, respect, and hard work will follow me in every transaction with my clients. As your exclusive realtor buyers, sellers, and investors can count on my dedication to keep the process fluid, successful, and low-stress from first call through closing and beyond.


I Believe in Giving Back

Having been a lifelong resident of Marshalltown, I have had the opportunity to volunteer for many different organizations throughout the years including volunteering at sporting activities while my son was growing up, participating in Marshall County Relay for Life serving meals at The House of Compassion, delivering Meals on Wheels, assisting with the concession stand for the Laurel Athletic Club, and participating in the local Farmer's Market. 


In My Free Time

I love spending time with my family. Grandkids are the best! My husband and I raise a large garden and preserve much of what is produced. I am always trying to learn something new, and our community has amazing learning opportunities! Some of the classes I have taken include flying lessons, adult tap dance, woodworking, knitting, sewing, beekeeping, and soap making.
