Here is a nice run down video for proof. https://youtu.be/IpfOYNEPYPg?is=JeEZz34WpvyuFrbs UPDATE: They did finally send a crew out today to remove the garbage that was left at the property. However, the crew needed to get in contact with someone at the office and, just like us, they could not get ahold of anyone. Because they were unable to reach anyone, the crew ended up leaving without removing the garbage. So unfortunately, even when someone is finally sent out to address an issue, the lack of communication from the office is preventing the work from actually getting done!

BEWARE. ISAAC KUEHN, realtor for DRG used his professional realtor license to open an unauthorized…read morelock box without notifying the other agent or homeowner & he used the keys in that lock box to grant himself access to THE BOOKMEN STACKS CONDO bldg in North Loop Minneapolis. He entered the bldg & used the facilities in the bldg without a resident. I reported him to the Minnesota Real Estate Board in summer 2024 & sent them the bldg security footage of him propping the lobby doors open & he was found guilty & was fined in the Fall of 2024. He requested an in-person Appeal board meeting which I was present & since he continued to be dishonest throughout the entire process, the real estate board severely increased his fine he had to pay to the board & required he complete other disciplinary measures & is on his public record for few years. He is the most dishonest Realtor in Real Estate & he is very unprofessional.

My husband and I are people of color, and I am a disabled woman. I share that because it feels…read morerelevant to how we were treated by DRG--specifically by their employee Patrick Cason, who communicated with us in an aggressive and condescending manner. It felt like he assumed we didn't know our rights and could be intimidated into accepting whatever they decided. We moved out on the 8th of the month, but DRG required us to pay rent for the entire month. Then they withheld a large portion of that overpaid rent along with our entire security deposit. The reasoning they gave was inconsistent and unsupported. They claimed smoke damage but provided no real evidence--just a dirty air filter, which we fully admit we should have replaced before moving out. But a dirty air filter doesn't prove smoke damage, and their own move-out report never mentioned any smoke odor or related concerns. In fact, the report--completed by someone hired by DRG--only noted a few dirty carpet spots, not that the carpet needed to be cleaned or replaced. Yet, we were charged for full carpet replacement. When we asked for documentation, Patrick responded with hostile and accusatory emails. At one point, he even told us the owner wanted to sue us and that he was "talking them out of it." That kind of language felt less like professionalism and more like an attempt to scare us into submission. We've filed a conciliation court claim to hold them accountable and will update this review after the hearing. Until then, I strongly urge anyone considering a DRG property to document everything, ask questions, and know your rights. The way we were treated felt exploitative and dismissive--and we don't want others to go through the same experience.

Mr. Mark Gettinger helped me in finding a great deal in Minnesota (I am living in the West Coast)…read more He also explained me in detail about the required process and paper work and prepared an offer that helped in competing with other multiple buyers and getting a right price for my new condo purchase. In addition, he communicated with the condo association and provided all required documents for set up the HOA payments on time. Moreover, he suggested to do the Mobile closing ( the notary came to my home for signing the closing paper in the closing date) which saved my time and $$$ money because I did not need to fly to Minnesota just for the closing. Mr.Mark Gettinger has provided an outstanding customer service. He commutated with my Closing company and Lender directly when I needed the information's clarification ( especially, the specific legal terminology). Furthermore, all the paper work and earning money sending were done electronically-it was so easy and accurate as well as saving a lot of my time and energy in this busy life. In Sum, the closing was done on time, and my Lender told me that they were impressed how Mr. Mark Gettinger was able to manage very professionally the condo purchase ( which is required more knowledge and documentation than purchasing a single home) and also for a Buyer who is living in the different state. I am recommending Mr. Mark Gettinger as a trustful, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and professional Real Estate Agent.

She then said if I bought the home , if I didn't like it she'd sell it for free in the spring. Then at the close , she went back on her quid pro quo. Then, I was turned over to her boss, Scott.

Sounds like a good idea right? Well Bonnie and team dont quite have it down. . .their MO is to haggle with buyers to get the highest price from them, to say things like "We are not giving this stuff away, we are selling it." and demand that buyers give them the price they asked for. But really what is the difference between $2.50 and $1.00, if it means that the buyer is going to walk away? The pricer tends to overprice things, people want garage sale prices so the ones who are interested try to bargain (the others just walk away) and Bonnie and team wont accept this. Unfortunately this means that you are you going to be out the $1,000 that you have to pay Bonnie and you wont sell half of your stuff so you'll have to pay to have it hauled to the Goodwill. Not the greatest predicament!

Peggy is responsive, knowledgeable, and exhibits a passionate understanding of residents' concerns as she applies the rules and regulations of the HOA. Within the past year there was a new resident who was receiving accusatory comments from residents, and then after receiving a formal advisory message from Peggy, the resident asked me what was going on, why was she being singled out. She had only recently moved in and she was so upset that she wanted to just pack up and move out. I talked to Peggy and asked her to have a conversation with the resident. Peggy did so in a compassionate yet rule-oriented manner. In fact within a few months' that resident ran for and was elected to the Board. On a second occasion within the past two months I personally was aided by Peggy after I filed a petition for waiver to the Board. I felt certain members of the Board were allowing the petition to fail, not on its merits, but because the deadline for a decision was looming and that would mean the petition would be allowed to die without being heard. I contacted Peggy for a ruling. She listened to my reasoning and realized immediately that the Board was indeed required to formally meet to hear the petition, or else risk facing liability. She was able to drill right down through the emotional rhetoric to the heart of the matter, requiring the Board to follow the rules of procedure. I'm not certain how many other properties for which Peggy has responsibility but it is reassuring and fortunate for us that Peggy is our Community Association Manager.
