Back in the winter of 2012 I had my first ever investment property sitting on the Market for months with another broker. After contacting Ryan O'neil of the "MN Real Estate Team" he referred me to Brian because of his background in renovating and selling property. Brian was formerly a mechanical engineer, and this shows through in his approach to real estate. From our first meeting he was analytical, solution minded and candid. After deciding to list the home with Brian he brought in a professional staging company and a real estate photographer. The difference between this approach and the old listing was night and day. My previous experience was that realtors make empty promises and then have excuses when they can't deliver. Brian did just the opposite of this. From the outset he effectively managed my expectations and then exceeded them. Within a month of listing with Brian we had a strong offer and a successful sale. Several months later I began working with Brian as a buyer's agent looking for my next rehab deal. It was through this process that I discovered the strength of Brian's character. I thought I had found the perfect house. It was in a trendy neighborhood and architecturally it was a style of home that I've always loved. I was eager to have another project to start on and I was ready and willing to sign a check. In a very level-headed and tactful way, Brian reigned me in. He went out of his way to research the homes condition and history. Suffice it to say there were countless pitfalls and drawbacks that my inexperience kept me blind to. Brian could have easily written an offer for me and collected his buyer's agent commission. He also would have been the agent I listed the home with, and he would have collected even more from the back end of the deal. However, Brian remained an advocate for my interests and steered me away from this deal. Throughout 2012-2013 I have continued to work with Brian with equally satisfying results . If you're looking for an agent with intelligence, pragmatism and a commitment to ethics, look no further.

“Brian served as realtor for the sale of our previous home as well as the purchase of our (new) current home. Brian is everything you could ever hope for and then some in a realtor. He is an excellent communicator, an astute listener, and a consummate advocate. He calmed us down when we were over-excited, he encouraged us when we were frustrated, and he was truly with us every step of the way including well after the transactions. His market research is second to none and proved to be the difference maker for both our sale and purchase transactions. We recommend Brian to anyone, particularly clients as high maintenance as us!” - See more at: http://activerain.com/blogsview/3972496/my-old-profile#sthash.72YK5vXZ.dpuf
