Our Mission

Bulthuis Services LLC

Our mission is to bring truth, transparency, and straight talk back to real estate. As a husband-and-wife team with deep blue-collar roots, we believe people deserve honest guidance, clear explanations, and advice that puts their best interests first—not sales pressure or fine print.

With backgrounds spanning real estate, over 15 years as a framing carpenter, six years as an active real estate agent, and now offering mortgage services, we understand homes from the studs to the settlement table. That hands-on experience allows us to serve our clients with practical knowledge, integrity, and confidence at every step of the process.

We are committed to delivering the level of care, respect, and professionalism we would expect our own mothers to receive—no shortcuts, no surprises, and no nonsense. Our goal is to empower hardworking individuals and families with the truth they need to make sound decisions, while providing high-quality, full-service support built on trust, transparency, and genuine care.

I can’t say enough good things about working with Wayne. As a first-time homebuyer, I needed someone I could trust, and from day one, I felt like he had my back. He never pushed; he was honest about concerns and, with his construction background, spotted things I never would have noticed. He even guided me toward a new build that I was unsure about, and, within 3 weeks, I was closing on a home I love. Wayne stayed by my side through inspections, financing, and builder follow-ups, always stepping in when it was helpful. Even after closing, he’s checked in to make sure all is well. What stands out most is how much he genuinely wants to help people. That comes through in every interaction. He’s knowledgeable, patient, and dependable. I felt completely comfortable trusting him through one of the biggest decisions of my life, and I’m so grateful he encouraged me to look at the home I now get to call mine. I’d recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone who wants someone steady and honest in their corner. THANK YOU, WAYNE!!!!!

I truly could not have asked for a better realtor! From start to finish, Wayne was incredibly hardworking, kind, honest, and genuinely dedicated to helping me find the perfect home. Wayne went above and beyond every step of the way, always making sure I felt informed, supported, and confident throughout the home-buying process. Wayne was not only my realtor, but also my biggest cheerleader, encouraging me through the stressful moments and celebrating every exciting milestone right alongside me. Wayne listened to what I wanted, never made me feel pressured, and somehow helped me find the perfect house that truly feels like home. I am so grateful for your patience, honesty, hard work, and unwavering support. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to have you as their realtor

To say Wayne is a class act would be an understatement. Wayne was hands down the best realtor we have worked with and he helped my fiance and I find the perfect home! He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to home construction, home condition, and real estate in general. He is extremely transparent and honest, and has YOUR best interest at heart, and truly goes the extra mile to help people. For us specifically, we had looked at many used homes, and for our budget had never considered a new build, but Wayne wanted to show us what value we could potentially get at the same price point. We ended up buying that new build vs a "fixer-upper" because it fit our goals a bit more and checked all the boxes Wayne and I had discussed. He went the extra mile by attending our initial and final walk throughs and marking up areas in the home along side us that needed touchup, and gave recommendations on what corrective actions should be taken for any repairs. I cant recommend Wayne and his company enough because its not often you find a realtor(s) with such integrity and willingness to work to give you the best experience possible when searching for a home. Thanks Wayne!!
