We bought our home with Billy virtually across the country. At first we were sure that we wanted to…read morestart looking at houses after we moved to Minnesota. Buying something as expensive and important as a house virtually seemed nuts. But as the new year began we started getting the urge to just take a look. Who knew that within just a few weeks we would have an accepted offer? There is no one else we would have felt comfortable buying remotely with. And the only reason we changed from just looking to seriously buying was because we came to trust and rely on Billy's opinions. He is not just a savvy and knowledgeable realtor, he is truly a sincere and nice guy. He would warn us that even if we lose out on a house, in the end it always works out (and SPOILER ALERT he's right). But he still commiserated with us when we were outbid and he really went above and beyond when we were searching for the right home. And he really does want to find you the right home. He will be honest with you about any negatives he sees and he will steer you away from any bad decisions. Sometimes we were so keen to just get a house that we were willing to settle or make hasty decisions. But Billy makes sure that whatever house you get is a great house and whatever you do is sound and smart. And I'm so glad that he was there with us helping make all our decisions. He would give us daily updates of his endeavors going door to door and networking with other agents. In the end it was a note of his he left on the door of a house that was off the market that did the trick. We were able to buy a house that was miles better than any of the other houses we put offers on with basically no other competition. In the crazy housing market right now you need someone like Billy who is willing to go the extra mile. He was always trying innovative techniques to help us stand out amongst other buyers and that's exactly what it takes these days. He's continued to be invaluable after closing. He was great to bounce ideas around with about updating the house after moving in and he and Heather have been great with recommendations. He is always super responsive and I'm so glad I can still rely on him even after we've closed.

Billy took the time to listen to our needs, ask us about our future plans, and answer every one of our questions. They were in constant communication and made sure that we felt informed and confident in making the best decisions for our family. The combination of integrity, grace, and real estate intelligence in this team is unparalleled. This paired with Billy's deep knowledge and network in the Minnesota real estate community made for the dream team! We felt cared for (and about) at every turn. The entire experience was a joy!

Tasha sold a property for me that hadn't sold the previous year with a different realtor. She made…read morethe property, which had been rental, more appealing by staging it for me and did it so efficiently that we were able to get it on the market quickly and without any hassle for me. I was reassured by her years of experience, her ability to sell properties, her attention to detail and her excellent interpersonal skills. She had lots of good ideas, but also listened to what I had to say. My favorite thing about Tasha is that she is a very positive. I was anxious about what would happen when I put the property on the market AGAIN, but Tasha always said we would get it sold, and we did! She really did go above and beyond what's expected of a realtor. Phyllis W. Minneapolis

After interviewing several agents, I met with Thang. We clicked immediately, talking to Thang was like talking to an old friend. Thang is not pushy, he listens to your thoughts and concerns. Every realtor has a different approach and I felt the most compatible with Thang. Thang's hardworking team, Ben, Stephanie and Angella were also a pleasure to work with. My condo had been a rental for many years so Thang and Ben coordinated some needed updating and had it professionally staged. His team put together a beautiful marketing flyer and had open houses every weekend until it sold. Thang is very optimistic, he finds the positive in every situation. Even when the first offer fell through, he managed to put me at ease. Selling a home can be stressful but I was always confident Thang and his team were doing everything possible to sell my property. I am most grateful for their dedication and hard work. It was great to work with genuinely a nice group of people.

Except Ben. If you are looking for an incredibly hard working person who will answer the phone pretty much any time of the day look no further; Ben has been incredibly responsive and on top of every issue we've encountered during the buying/building process of our home. He is very good at solving disputes and helping his client as much as he possibly can. I am not the one to give 5 stars easily but I just could not recommend Ben enough! A big thanks to Ben for helping us buy and build our brand new home!

SOLD! That was the…read moremost important word that we wanted to see during our time spent with the Odd Couple Team. My only regret? Not partnering with them sooner. These guys deliver and go above and beyond the typical level of customer service. We ended up feeling like family. Such a great feeling to know we were with people that would get the job done. At times our selling journey felt like a long, epic, arduous journey, but hiccups happen and the ones that did were beyond everyone's control. We wouldn't change a thing. We have to thank my parents for referring Jason to us. What an excellent referral it was. Jason Koenig and his entire team were amazing from start to finish. Pros: -Marketing and communication. Amy M- what a bright, cheerful, encouraging communicator. -Picturesque photos- Nina- fabulous photos that say, " I want to live here". We received many compliments on the photos. -Transaction and Closing- Molly and Marjorie- excellent and helpful communications, helpful info. -Real Estate Agent- Jason Koenig- reliable, caring, excellent communications, friendly, charming, fun, professional and an overall great guy! -ShowTime App- to confirm or deny showings -E- Signatures- convenient and reliable for signing documents Closing Title Company- Brittany- what a sweet, thorough and lovely person. - Real Estate Agent (Buying) - Ryan. Always there ready to show us what we might be interested. -Clean, tasteful branding. Cons: Can't think of any...

He listened to what we wanted in a home and didn't try to push is into a sale we didn't feel comfortable with.

What sets…read moreSuzanne apart is her deep knowledge of the real estate industry and her exceptional ability to listen.

MORGAN HAD AN OFFER ON MY CONDO IN 10 DAYS (and the condo…read morewas a piece of work! you should see the before/after pictures from Morgan's staging) I'm beyond impressed with Morgan. I went through a terrible experience with a previous realtor and after 4 months my property didn't have 1 offer so I took it off the market. Many months later, I searched Google and found Morgan after reading a review on here (Yelp) and browsing her website. After reviewing her "buyer/seller guide" (which I highly recommend you ask her for), it literally answered every question I had as a seller. And in my case, I started to question after living in 4 states and working with countless realtors, why this was my first time seeing such a guide? It speaks to Morgan's ability to truly understand her market and clients. I went from no sell after 4 months to hiring Morgan and had an offer in 10 DAYS!!! You can't get any better than that. What I love about Morgan is that she's a straight-shooter. She won't B.S. you and she delivers. She also pays attention to details. I lived out of state from my property so she did all of the legwork for me. My condo needed some work with painting, staging (which I HIGHLY recommend her staging services), and minor maintenance. Her pricing was reasonable, she got it done in a timely manner, and she found ways to save (to the point that she went and actually swapped an item purchased for a less expensive one). She has a great eye for design, and most importantly, she's trustworthy. I can't recommend this woman enough. No shade to male realtors, but my experience personally has been that woman realtors pay more attention to details. I gave Morgan my timeline and budget and she completely exceeded my expectations. I don't even think this review does her justice as I'm beyond thankful for her services. She's phenomenal. If you're in search of a realtor or have a realtor already but you have a hunch they aren't meeting your needs, before you sign any papers, I'd make the switch or at minimum hear what she has to say. You won't regret it. I only wish I'd known of her the first time around.

It took a while for us to find our perfect house but she was incredibly professional, patient, attentive, and fun throughout the experience. I can't imagine working with anyone else!

After the tour, Stieg told me he didn't want to sell me that house since the odd layout would always detract from the value. He is also very responsive, and he has a great list of contacts for inspections, repairs etc. I am definitely very happy with everything Stieg did to help me!
