In terms of buying, Billy took…read morethe time to understand my needs, outline my options, explain the present market, and assist me in finding and securing my perfect home. In terms of selling, Billy took every step to elevate and position my home above the rest in a competitive yet uncertain market, from staging to photos to pricing to negotiations. Special shout-out to Heather, the Team Manager, who helped me navigate the intricacies and nuances of buying/selling by organizing and coordinating the necessary paperwork, communications, and to-dos on my behalf. She was a trusted resource; providing unwavering support, guidance, and clarification on next steps, and she did so with exceptional customer service and professionalism. There is no other real estate team I would recommend more highly than the Pauling Homes Team! I could not be happier with my experience!

We can't say enough about Billy Pauling and Mike Taylor of Pauling Homes. They were able to sell…read moreour home in the dead of winter in two weeks. They also found our new home so that we could co-ordinate our closings. We were leaving our home of 45 years with all its memories so the transition was a little painful. But Billy and Mike made this experience so much better. We felt that they had our backs every step of the way. They were patient and understanding through the whole process. We highly recommend this amazing team

After another local agency failed miserably to sell our condo, Stieg was a breath of fresh air. He…read moreis really warm, personable, and fun in an authentic way. He helped us navigate the challenges of selling our property at a decent price. He is calm and responsive to questions and concerns and helped us through the stressful inspection process. For example, he helped us understand reasonable vs. unreasonable items to address. He also communicated the status of the all important final walk through and closing in a timely manner so that we knew all was successful. Not only did my wife and I get an exceptional agent when we hired Stieg, we got a great new friend.

I needed a realtor to help me buy a home from 2000 miles away, and I'm glad I went with Stieg! I…read morewas looking for a single family house in the Dakota or Scott county area, and from our first call, it was very apparent that Stieg is extremely knowledgeable about the area. One thing I really appreciate about Stieg is his honesty. We looked at one house (via FaceTime) that had a very weird floor plan and unthoughtful addition. 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!

Cari Ann, Pamala and her team were fantastic with the sale of our house in the MacGrove…read moreneighborhood. They obviously knew the market very well and the staging was INCREDIBLE and instrumental in the quick sale of our house. Happy with the counsel/advice we received and the fantastic service. While Cari Ann Carter Group is at a slightly higher % for realtor fees, worth it just for the staging and high touch service. UPDATE (approximately 1.5 years later): We recently used Cari Ann Carter again for the purchase of a lot. This was a bit spontaneous and Cari Ann is a pit bull when it comes to advocating for you. We were able to put in an offer Sunday, get a counteroffer Monday and secure the property on Tuesday. She was INSTRUMENTAL in making this happen quickly and is the best negotiator ever! She set reasonable expectations for us, which we really appreciated, and was very open in feedback along the entire way. More importantly, she is a DO-er! She had 2 contractors out within 12 hours of walking the property to help us with the logistics of design, finding a contractor, etc. You want her and her amazing team on your side when you're buying or selling!

Beware of fast talk and non-listener, nothing but pushy and arrogant. Two of the worst qualities we…read morewanted in a realtor. Cai Ann didn't listen. Also had a horrible experience with their partner, The Closing Phase, yet they wouldn't help us out with the negative experience we had after they received their commission for the sale of one home and purchase of new one, it's like we were no one to them after all was said and done. Will never use or recommend Cari Ann Carter again! WORST experience ever!!

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

If you're looking for an agent who will really listen and put your priorities first, Suzanne is the one you want by your side.

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.

Chad and I worked together and found a place quickly! He searched off market properties and found the exact fit in my price range, location and layout.

Chad was very professional but so friendly and approachable when I had any questions, no matter how simple they may be. Chad is very communicative throughout the whole process and I trust him with any housing needs I have. Very much recommend working with the JSG if you're looking to buy!
