Trevor Knesal
SERVICE
I help people sell houses and buy homes.
COMMITMENT
I serve my clients best by seeking only to find out what THEY want in their next home, by ignoring my own preferences and opinions, and by focusing solely on my clients’ goals and what they are seeking to accomplish.
BACKGROUND
Hi everybody,
I did most of my “growing up” on the “wet side” (West side) of the Cascades in Washington state during the 80’s and 90’s. I made a lot of great friends and memories there. I enjoyed riding my bike, and many of the other opportunities that part of the country has to offer in the way of outdoor adventures. I also enjoyed a lot of the music that came out of that area in those days, and I didn’t even mind the rain; for a while anyway…
As I got older and accumulated responsibilities, my schedule became less flexible, and the odds of my free time lining up with breaks in the clouds and from the rain seemed to grow slimmer every day. I used to tell myself that if I liked the trees, I had to be okay with God watering them. That bought me a little more time in the soggy Puget Sound region, but I later came to the conclusion that I really didn’t like the trees that much after all.
While still in Washington, I married my best friend, and the woman of my dreams (same person), and we started a family. My wife and I dreamt and prayed for the day when we’d be able to move our family to the Treasure Valley, the place we believed to be the best on earth to raise a family. In April of 2012, those prayers were answered. I accepted a job offer, and with a four year old, two month old twins, a cat, and much more stuff than anyone thought we could possibly have fit in to our 1,200 square foot home; we were eastbound and down, and on our way to seeing those dreams come true.
Those early years were nuts, and anything but easy, but it became very clear very quickly that the move, and leap of faith was the best thing we could have done for our family. We were fortunate enough to land in a neighborhood where our children can safely walk to an incredible school, play outside (and with lots of friends), and enjoy three different community swimming pools during the Summer (among many other fun activities). We enjoy blue skies, and beautiful sunsets almost every day of the year, and rarely see rain.
The move was such a good thing for my family that I decided to become a real estate agent, so I can take part in helping others make moves, and see their dreams come true. I don’t consider myself a “salesperson”, but rather one who helps people navigate the process of selling a house, and buying a home. I’m not at all pushy, so those who need to be put in a headlock to make a decision will probably want to work with someone else, but those who are just looking for someone who can equip them with information and insights that will enable them to make the most informed real estate sales and purchase decisions possible should definitely give me a call.
I’d be both thrilled, and honored to help you or someone you know who is considering the sale of a house and/or the purchase of a home (or any other property, for that matter). Please feel free to call or text me any time at 208.907.5407.
Thanks,
Trevor

Kay Hudson recommends Trevor Knesal
A friend introduced us to Trevor and we are really glad to have him on our team. We are currently in another state which makes it difficult to choose the perfect area for our family. Trevor spent our 1st meeting asking important questions, listening carefully to be able to guide us as we began our journey of finding a special home in Idaho. We were excited and overwhelmed, wondering how we would accomplish this move, but by the time we left our 1st meeting, Trevor had offered specific, clear and useful suggestions and goals which helped us pinpoint areas to focus on – new home considerations versus existing homes available. He offered to show us any homes we wanted to see and set us up with listings as soon as they hit the MLS.
We spent the next month or so getting acquainted with our favorite areas, looking through all the lists, asking Trevor way too many questions and he was always available any time even Sunday to answer questions, look things up, and change our search criteria for our lists. He always stayed positive and motivational as we dragged him through all our home changes from mobile homes to townhomes to existing stick built homes (even though these were being sold instantly with multiple offers). He never tires but always has supportive, positive suggestions. He even submitted an offer for a townhome and then had to rescind it after we changed our mind late that night. He just remained faithful to finding us the perfect home.
We decided to buy a new home that will be built for us. This is where Trevor added so much extra value by attending our all-day builder’s meeting representing us and guiding us through difficult decisions, all on his day off. His questions and suggestions were a valuable gift to our team. We will have lots of time for issues to resolve, but we are looking forward to tackling all of it with Trevor walking right beside us to offer all his expertise and motivation. Thank you for all you have selflessly done for our family.
This journey can be frustrating, disappointing and require patience. On many occasions, I would contact him with my struggle and he would always offer encouragement. He had faith that we would finally get to Idaho and offered more suggestions to get through the hurdle. I often say, “I just need my Trevor fix” because he is so much more than a Realtor. He is faithful to his clients, knowledgeable about his profession and Idaho neighborhoods, positive and encouraging whenever he is contacted. His exceptional character and ethics shine through his daily life and my family is very blessed and honored to have Trevor on our team. We are proud to have him as our new friend. Not only will we recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate guide, but to those who read this and connect with Trevor, their home search as well as their lives will be touched in a special way.

Trevor went above and beyond simply being my realtor. He met with my escrow agents and building inspector. He guided me along the best avenues of appliances and set up of wi fi. He helped to let the movers in. And he was – most of all – there to advise. Moving is a daunting task. Trevor eased the road.

Connecting with Trevor early in the process of moving our family from Washington to Nampa was the smartest decision we made. Trevor not only is an expert in the fast-moving Treasure Valley market, but he provides personal, caring service beyond what is required. Trevor quickly became a trusted advisor and honorary member of the family. He was our enthusiastic recommendation when our extended families decided to make the move as well.

Trevor was absolutely wonderful to work with! He listened to what we were looking for and sent us great listings to review. He arranged to show us several properties on very short notice. Trevor communicated well throughout the entire process and was very prompt with anything that needed to happen or any questions we had. Trevor has truly gone above and beyond all expectations and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Boise area.

Trevor is hands down the best realtor in the Treasure Valley. You won’t find a realtor with a sense of humor like him! Nothing beats the funny emails, texts and voicemails. He stuck it out with us on and off as we were trying to decide if we wanted to build a home or buy an existing home. He invested so much of his time helping us research (him doing a majority of the work). He even went out of his way after the deal was done and paperwork was signed to help us out. We are lucky to have run into him at an open house and we knew right then we wanted to work with him. He takes the time to get to know his clients and he even knew the second we walked into our new home that it was the one. We will never be able to thank him enough for everything he has done for us.

Trevor truly went above and beyond in helping us find our home. He was honest, courteous, and highly professional. His communication was top-notch. Every phone call was answered, every text message was replied to promptly, even during the hectic holiday season.
I can’t recommend Trevor enough. In fact, I happily recommended him to my parents, who were also very impressed.
Thank you, Trevor! We’re loving our new home!

I very highly recommend Trevor. My wife and I moved to the Treasure Valley from out of state, and Trevor was invaluable in helping us find our 3rd house. He was always very responsive and consistently went the extra distance to find answers to our questions. He helped us quickly sift through existing homes on the market and sites where homes were about to be constructed. We are very happy with the new house being built for us. I’ve worked with multiple agents over the years, and I easily rate Trevor at the top of the list; he is reliable, patient, persistent and knowledgeable. On a scale of 1 to 5, I rate Trevor as, “Awesome!”

Taylor Cavazos recommends Trevor Knesal
Trevor is marvelous! My husband and I started our home buying adventure before the COVID-19 crisis really took a large toll on families across the nation. When we first met with him, we quickly agreed that he was someone we wanted to work with just based on his comical, kind, and witty personality. This was our first home buying process, so I have learned how much time you spend with your agent and how much communication it takes to get to the finish line. He was there for us EVERY single step of the way and he may learn from this review right now that I want him as a lifetime friend! When COVID-19 made the path of purchasing a home very rocky and challenging, he continued to be there for us and compassionate during a very difficult time. I am Team Trevor all the way!! You should be too!!!!

Trevor has been a very nice, easy, and fun man to work with. When I first met him, I didn’t even know he was a realtor because he didn’t randomly ask if I was looking to buy or sell a home and hand me a business card. He wasn’t pushy or rude, like other realtors I’ve met in the past. He has worked with me and will help my family get into their new home. I never hesitate to bring him up when a friend or family member mentions them wanting to get into a new place. He was incredibly proactive, efficient and urgent. He would send me all kinds of listings tailored to my specific needs. He made sure to get as close to possible with what I was looking for and wouldn’t hesitate to change my preferences when I realized I might not have wanted certain things after all. He also referred me to Gavin Sessions to help me on the financial end and showed me what I need to accomplish to get to where I wanted to be. That was very helpful, knowing I’ve also had a negative experience working with most people in finance. Not because they weren’t qualified, but because I didn’t feel like they weren’t looking to make a quick buck. I felt heard and understood. He’s also very encouraging. Being a first time home-buyer in a thriving market with constant changes was stressful. He took that stress from me and helped me focus on what I really wanted. He’s good at keeping you on track and communicating with you. I don’t plan on going though anyone else the next time I plan on buying a home. I trust Trevor and feel very blessed to work with him. He provides the best and highest quality service and experience you could ask for!

When it comes to real estate professionals, look no further. Trevor was professional, and compassionate. He truly listened to my needs, and wants, and found the solution for both. This was a fairly traumatic time in my life, and for most folks, looking for a new home, would add to the trauma. Trevor did not. He made the home buying experience into a fresh new start of the next chapter in my life.
Thank you Trevor for making this a pleasurable experience!!! I will always and forever be grateful to you!!

Daniel & Dawn Jenks recommends Trevor Knesal
As we made preparations for a cross country move back to Idaho, we were so blessed to have an amazing one of a kind realtor, Trevor Knesal!! Browsing, house hunting & then buying a home(1st home) states away is hard, but with Trevor we lucked out. He did multiple live walk thurs inside & outside homes for us with out one sign of annoyance. (Even with a 2 hour time difference) Aside from that, we know Trevor also did so many behind the scenes researching for us too. He was always available or got back quickly if he was busy, took amazing notes & listened to the details of what “we” liked in a home, never was pushy or sales minded, accepted our request (even our sometimes crazy new to him ideas), worked on finding answers even if he didn’t know them right away, was always encouraging/upbeat, checked in often with us, was a good sounding board when it felt rough at times & did little small acts of service along the way, even after buying & closing(like mowing our lawn after it was sold!) On a stressful day of packing we received a text message displaying a beautiful door mat as a gift he had made for our new home with our last name on it (it brought tears of JOY). He is one of the most down to earth, genuine, kind hearted people out there. He knows the value behind friendships over just a business deal. We felt cared for to the end & beyond!! Trevor your amazing. You are more than just a realtor to us! We couldn’t have imagined smooth sailing for our 1st home purchase & it was all done from states away! We highly recommend him! Trevor thank you for being on our sometimes crazy journey! Idaho we are headed back, here we come!

Trevor helped us buy a new home in Star Idaho. The process took several weeks and we looked at more houses than I can remember. He took amazing notes and narrowed down the search each time we looked at a home. When he would send us suggestions it was obvious he was listening to our wants and need as they applied to our potential new home. He was never a waste of time! He was always patient and professional, and always on time.
We would highly recommend Trevor as a top notch realtor!

What a super job Trevor did helping us find a home. No sales pressure just concern for what we were looking for. Give him a 10+ if you’re looking for a home.
