Shelly Borota

Licensed in IA & IL

DeWitt Office

903 Sixth Avenue
DeWitt, IA 52742

Shelly Borota started her career in the fall of 2008.  The housing bubble was bursting.  Why would anyone get into real estate then??  A passion for helping people!  One of the best ways is to help people achieve the dream of home ownership.  Shelly loves to work with first time home buyers as it allows her to educate them on the ever-changing landscape of real estate.  Then to watch as those buyers grow and their needs change as do their home ownership needs. 

The transition to real estate was an easy one.  Shelly’s prior experience in marketing, management and retail have all helped form her strong work ethic.  Growing up in small town DeWitt, she’s also been instilled with small-town values of honesty and integrity.

Shelly lives in DeWitt with her husband, Brian, and their 4-legged child, Ember, a middle-aged black lab.  Brian & Shelly have an ever-growing family with 4 grown children, Billy, Ashley (son-in-law, Darin), Maggie, Robert and one Grandbaby, Jenna.  Shelly enjoys weightlifting, swimming & boating in her spare time and relishes her many opportunities to volunteer in the community.

Great as always!

Kenneth & Tammy Laursen

Shelly was amazing! She listed our home on a Friday, hosted an open house on Sunday, had an offer on Monday. Shelly communicated with both of us during the whole process. She also coordinated repairs that were requested. She put us at ease and is truly a very caring person with a great personality. We will recommend Shelly to everyone we know who is in need of a realtor!

Ken & Tammy Laursen

Shelly assisted us in the sale of our house and because of her it was a very positive experience! Shelly is simply wonderful! She communicated to both of us throughout the whole process. She listed our home in a timely manner on Friday and on Sunday hosted an open house. She was at the open house, which we feel made a difference as well. We accepted an offer on Monday! Shelly coordinated all of the details and arranged for repairs that were requested. We didn't have to do a thing and she kept us informed along the way. Shelly's positive attitude and caring personality is such an asset. We love her! We will definitely recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home.

Appreciated Shelly’s dedication and hard work even after the purchase was made. Answered my questions quickly and provided suggestions on who to talk to about getting estimates. Thankful for her knowledge, dedication, friendliness, and kindness. Can’t say enough positive about her. Definitely an excellent rating.

Solveig Schroerlucke

I referred my aunt to Shelly to sell her longtime home in Preston. Shelly worked with my aunt and my cousin on the sale of their very unique home and property and they had nothing by rave reviews for Shelly throughout the whole process. It made me feel so happy that I recommended Shelly! Her staging, marketing and professional photography of the property just made it SHINE and stand out as well. I couldn’t be happier that I referred Shelly to my family! Thank you, Shelly!
