What is a QR code?

A QR or Quick Response code, also known as a 2D barcode, gives users information on their smart phone or cell phone in an instant. In the simplest sense, think print-based link to web.

If you see these QR codes, you take a photo through an application on your smart phone or cell phone, the program analyzes or scans the barcode, and it asks if you’d like to be redirected to a web address/URL.

Can I use QR codes on my phone?

Because this technology is relatively new, there is no standard program or application for you to use. iPhones® and BlackBerrys® accommodate QR scanning applications quite easily and have very inexpensive (or even free) downloads available from their respective application stores. Even some cell phones allow it.

QR Codes are Revolutionizing Real Estate

Go to this website to see if your smart phone is compatible and to download code reader software to get started with QR Codes. www.mobile-barcodes.com/qr-code-software.

About Us

In 2001, Dan Stanbrough recreated a name that is synonymous with central Iowa real estate: Stanbrough Companies - with it's familiar "black and gold" signage - is back. "When my father started Stanbrough Realty on January 1st, 1960, Des Moines was such a different place. It's changed a lot, and some of that change can be credited to the forward thinking he brought to the business."

Stanbrough Today

Today, in the surging new wave of growth and expansion in the metro area of Des Moines, Dan Stanbrough guides this transformation as head of the family realty, home building, development and property management companies. Sons Jeff and Brad hold key ownership and leadership positions in the company. Jeff is now president and CEO/owner of Stanbrough Realty and Brad is now president and CEO/owner of Stanbrough Homebuilders and Stanbrough Commercial Builders. Dan Stanbrough has acquired and totally renovated Saylorville Marina into Iowa's largest marina, and is one of the founding shareholders in the new Iowa Speedway in Newton. "I enjoy the creativity of helping shape what happens for future generations. I have pride in Iowa and Des Moines. I've lived here all my life; my kids are fourth generation in this city. So you get to know a community pretty well, and want to positively impact what's ahead. My sons are very entrepreneurial and I'm proud they are. They will continue our family tradition."

The Family Tradition

Dan said father Gene Stanbrough introduced new methods of marketing real estate to the city, sponsoring the first television show in the early 1960s dedicated to showcasing available real estate offerings. Gene was the first realtor to open a "branch" office in the city, and we were the first to market available real estate through color tabloids. Stanbrough Realty, with its distinctive gold signs and black lettering was a family-operated enterprise through the 1960s and early 1970s playing a part in Des Moines' great comeback era of the late 1970s and 1980s. And through the family name has been in the real estate market ever since the start on New Years Day 1960, the name itself is undergoing a renaissance as a business icon. Stanbrough Realty changed its name to First Realty in 1983, with Dan as president, grew to 700 sales associates in 60 offices; the family company was later merged into a regional financial institution. "In 2001, my two sons were in their early 20s and interested and already both investing and building. We decided to bring the family name back into the market, something people hadn't seen in many years. I was encouraged to see how much familiarity our name still had in the community as a real estate company." Gold and black is back!

Our Philosophy

"We try to spend our time understand out customers desires. We ask, 'What do people really want?', 'Where do they want to live?' We know people want nature and amenities such as trees and water; they don't want just buildings, they want quality recreation and lifestyle aesthetics. We're very conscious of conservation. We work around nature. Our new neighborhoods reflect our commitment to developing in harmony with nature." As developers, realtors, homebuilders, investors, the Stanbrough Companies contribute at every turn in central Iowa, from high-end residential communities, neighborhood shopping centers, office complexes to downtown and urban

For most home owning households, the home is a primary source of wealth and financial security. And even though many homes have lost value in recent years, the nation’s home owners have more than $6 trillion in home equity and they still believe in homeownership.

Home owners often tap the equity in their homes to pay for education, to cover health expenses and to help fund retirement. They also use the equity to help pay for improvements that increase the value of their homes and make them safer and more resource-efficient. Homeownership also can shield households from the risk of large increases in housing expenses.
