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.

We highly recommend this amazing team

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!

I will preface this with I move a lot for work, every 18 months or so I am relocated, so this is my 6th move in 8 years. I have worked directly with many different companies across the US and I would say that by far bridge realty is the worst realtor. My agent for the home I just purchased is with Edina and throughout the process bridge has been none responsive, and damn near impossible to work with. Right now on yelp they have 5 stars, interesting considering they have a closed account with 1 star (attached). Avoid them and go with Someone that actually cares about the client and the sale rather than a weekend realtor who could care less and wants a paycheck.

Bridge Realty are scam artists!

Bridge Realty real estate agents and their inspection partners purposely damage home seller property then request offers well under asking price as a fault of damage they directly cause to home seller properties during unsupervised showings. If you are selling your home and a buyer is represented by Bridge Realty, DO NOT LEAVE YOUR HOME UNSUPERVISED DURING SHOWINGS. Not to them or ANY inspector they assign should be left unattended in your home. They are unethical and illegal as damaging home seller property to reduce an asking price is flat out illegal. Beware Bridge Realty at all costs!

Recommendation for Zac Bidelman/Keller Williams Preferred Realtor/Huerkamp Home Group…read more I first met Zac Bildelman after inquiring about a property that I was interested in. He made an appointment and showed me the property that same day. My first impression was that he was knowledgeable and able to answer my questions readily. I realized over time that because of all his additional attributes (Professional, always responsive, and very patient), he was the perfect realtor. It had been over 30 years since my husband, and I had previously scoured the cities in search of that one perfect realtor to help us find the house that was perfect for us at that time. Zac Bidelman patiently spent at least two years showing me various properties. He quickly fine-tuned the amenities that I was in search of until it basically came down to 3 or 4 properties. Once the perfect location came on the market, he helped me create an offer that he presented immediately. His quick action was the sole reason that I was able to buy the property that was perfectly suited to me. The second phase of my quest was to subsequently sell my house. During that process Zac assisted me with the preparations of getting the house we built 33 years prior ready for sale. His company hired an inspector and then advised me how to prioritize what to repair from the inspector's list. Zac had a "Stager" available to me who helped me get the house aesthetically ready to be viewed. The professional photographer that he used took exceptional photographs that helped present my house in the best possible light. This also included drone shots which helped highlight the fabulous view from and around my home. Regarding setting the sales price of my house, he listened to my input of what I felt the price should be set at - given that I knew my property and adjacent locations so well after living in the house for over three decades. Because of his skills as a realtor, my home sold in one day. For any and all of the above-stated reasons, I wholeheartedly recommend Zac Bidelman and his very accomplished assistants and team. Zac's contact info is as follows: (612) 712-9936 zac@hhgus.com

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!!

Living in St Paul for sometime, I was familiar with the Odd Couple Team and appreciated all of the…read morecommunity involvement that their team embodies. When I decided to make the move to purchase my own place, I knew that I wanted to work with them. I was matched with Austen Kordosky from their team and he was eager to help me get started. Austen was super friendly, very flexible and always kept my "Must Haves" in mind when showing me properties. He also didn't push back when I sent him listings that I wanted to check out, despite them not being a best fit for me; he allowed me to go through the process and grow through the process. Mid-way through my search I pivoted from wanting a condo to exploring a single family home and Austen eagerly pivoted with me showing me three properties the following morning. He was great about reaching out to me with a regular cadence and suggesting properties for me to tour. One property in particular was one where he was representing the seller and it was not yet on the market officially. When I walked in I was super impressed with the beautiful light of the south facing windows, the gorgeous hardwood floors and 100-year-old woodwork. Despite touring several houses after that, I kept thinking back to the property that would eventually become mine. By having a sneak peak into a pre-listing I was able to take more time with my choice to purchase and avoided the craziness of the spring real estate market. This was something that had plagued me on several prior offer submissions. Had I not been working with Austen I would have never found this gem. The whole Odd Couple Team in general was awesome to work with. The co-owner of the team called me when I started working with Austen and after I purchased my home to congratulate me. Additionally, I received a fun welcome gift from them at my closing that was an awesome surprise! That type of all star service is why you should work with their team. They take great pride in the work that they do and I am so grateful! Thanks Austen and team!

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... These guys do so much for their clients and make everyone feel like more than a client. I would and have recommended them to family and friends who want to list, buy or receive guidance. Okay, I'll wrap it up- this isn't the Oscars..... Oh, but wait.... Fabulous client events and parties thrown by Jason and Shane Client Appreciation Halloween Events Santa Events and so much more..... These guys are truly the real deal. Smart, perceptive, class acts. We have nothing but praise and thanks to this entire team. Thank you so much to the entire team!

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.
