Bill had several prospects at time of listing,so the sale was timely to a previous client.

The sale was sooner than I expected with the price very satisfactory. Bill had told the prospects what we were willing to do and we didn't have a hassle that generally shows up prior to closing.

Definitely would contact Bill and agency if we were interested in buying.

He said when we sell no if we sell. Easy to talk to and

Michelle Connelly, Mosco | Seller Rating

Bill is extremely professional, very knowledgeable about the market and straight forward in timely updates. He made the journey with us all the way to a successful sale.

Mary Connelly; Moscow | Seller Rating
November 2016

Bill was wonderful! Always had a calming influence and had knowledgeable, well thought out solutions to issues that arose. At times acted as our contractor to get problems resolved thoroughly and efficiently. He certainly knows his business AND the area AND his clients. I'm very grateful he was referred to us and would highly recommend him to anyone selling/buying waterfront property.

Even though our property ran into some issues Bill kept the negotiations going, found resolutions to the issues and kept the prospective buyer interested clear to the closing. The sales money was in my bank account one day after signing the closing papers.

On surveys I don't usually give many "excellent" grades figuring as good as they were there's always room for improvement. Bill deserves every "excellent" given on this survey.

Bill's staff was always thorough, timely and efficient.

I have known Bill Fanning for years.I have contacted him for years about selling this property. He kept me informed over the years of the the property values in that area.The right time came and he sold it for us. Good job Bill. I have contacted a friend of mine and told her if you ever want to sell your lake property he is the man for the job.

Thanks Bill,

Bill Fanning was the best realtor I have ever worked with. His knowledge of the real estate market and laws in CDA and Kootenai Co. is unsurpassed. His help with obtaining surveys, septic permits, etc was so important as I live out-of-town. I am disappointed that the lot didn't sell sooner, but I do not think that had anything to do with Bill's services or marketing. At the end of the day, he walked me through the sales and closing process, and is now still helping me sell my dock. Huge asset to Century 21!

Jim And Stephanie Lister | Buyer Rating

Bill is a great agent. He was professional and made our experience stress free. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell on the lake.

Bill Fanning did a great job. I would recommend him to my friends. He did a great job of giving me an accurate estimate of the value of my property up front and his marketing materials were top notch. He did not pressure me to lower the price to get a quick sale like many agents do. It was a very pleasant experience and I believe I got a good price for my property.

Robert Dumont, Cda | Seller Rating

Bill's analysis, pricing, marketing and closing was the best I have received in this community.

Bill is the most knowledgeable realtor of lake property at Coeur D'Alene and that is exactly what we wanted and purchased. He told us to wait for over a year until the ideal property came on the market. He is great! Thanks Bill. Feel free to have anyone give me a call if they want to discuss your service! Thanks. Gregg and Debbie

Bill Fanning is probably one of, if not "the" most knowledgeable waterfront Broker I met in the Coeur d'Alene area. He was in continuous contact with us on the market and what was happening and kept us updated on the marketing effort on behalf of our property. If you are looking for a hard working, no nonsense Broker, then Bill Fanning is your man.

I can not say it often enough....we had no complaints in any area about Bill Fanning. Fantastic job!

Bill Fanning contacted my husband, John and I on the phone and suggested he come talk to us regarding a specific marketing plan he had for our home. We had selected Bill as our realtor about 3 years ago and were unsuccessful in selling our home. When he called in February, 2015.... our contract with another realtor/company had just expired and were impressed that Bill initiated contact with us by phone. We invited him to our house. After listening to his marketing scheme, we signed a contract with him that day. We have never been sorry that we did! He was fantastic and sold our house in a very short amount of time. Any time we had a question or concern (even as we were closing), we would call or text him and he responded to us immediately. We are very, very impressed with his professionalism and salesmanship. Our experience with Bill Fanning was absolutely positive in all aspects of the partnership we had with him.
