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.

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.

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.

My husband and I chose Morgan as our realtor in 2015. As first time home buyers, we were pretty…read moreclueless as to what to do first. Morgan helped us navigate every aspect of the house buying process. She set us up with a great mortgage broker, helped us understand the current market, explained how to assess houses and spot issues, and when it came time to negotiate offers, was quite tenacious in getting us the best deal possible. 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!

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!

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.

From getting us in to see the house of our dreams at the drop of a hat before it hit the market, to writing the strongest Purchase Agreement possible for us in this extremely competitive market, to getting all the inspections scheduled and completed for us while we were on a long road trip, to every little question we had along the way, to the closing itself, which was a breeze and only took 20 minutes. On top of it all, she is honestly so kind and genuine, traits you truly don't often see in the Real Estate business. She is very careful not to steer you in a direction you don't want to go, and she actually LISTENS to what you want and need. Look no further for the agent of your dreams!

She offered no stress showings. Not once did I feel like I HAD to purchase a home and not once did I feel like I was being pushed to spend more money than I wanted. She was flexible with when she would allow us to look at home and when she was able to answer questions. I feel like even though we were looking at small prices homes we got a large price realtor. We ended up being able to look at a couple of homes one day as a sort of pre market option (the market in the twin cities is really going crazy right now and homes are selling fast). Of these two homes we were the only ones to view them and they were both amazing. It went from having no options to having to choose between two very quickly. We purchased one of those homes and are loving every minute of it. Highly recommend Erica!
