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.

In a few short words - I love Uptown Realty. I had the pleasure of working with Scott Graham who…read morehelped me purchase my first home. To say that I was completely ignorant of everything that went into searching for a house is an understatement. I think it'd be understandable for anyone to lose patience with someone who couldn't make up her mind about what she wanted in a home or what she could afford. Scott never made me feel like a burden or like I was uneducated about the housing market. Because he knew that I was a first-time home buyer, he took extra time during our showings to point out important things to take note of that I may not have otherwise paid attention to. He also went into detail about purchase agreements and other contracts to make sure I understood what I was signing. He was always prompt in his email and text responses and made me feel totally valued as a client. I tried working with other realtors from larger firms - mostly because I got a cash incentive from my insurance company to do so - but they very much had a sales mentality or weren't willing to compromise with my expectations or timeline. I ended up foregoing a $600 cash bonus to work with Scott because the impression he left was so much better than the other realtors I tried. He was the only one who I felt I could trust completely. Not only was Scott an excellent realtor, but also he became a great friend of mine. Although I'm so excited to have bought a home, I miss talking to Scott every day and driving around like mad men to showings. I couldn't be happier with my new home and with the person who helped me get it. Thank you, Scott, for everything you have done for me!

WARNING!!!!!! Brian…read moreWeedman is one of the worst landlords EVER! DO NOT RENT FROM HIM OR BUY FROM HIM! EVER! He is the definition of a slumlord, has threaten to kick me out multiple times without warning due to no fault of my own, only to change his mind at the last second. (Continuous emotional distress) During my time there he was the least accommodating slumlord I've ever witnessed, never followed up on repairs, when construction was being done he wouldn't provide you warning when people would be entering and even when they did show up they never did what I had requested. Ex, fix the heat during the winter or loud construction during working hours. He even raised rent on me for no reason while I was renting from him while I always paid on time and never missed a month. After the 3rd time he threatened to kick me out-he asked if I would like to stay and continue to rent of which I refused and left. After finally feeling relieved and free from his abusive grasp, tax time came around. I asked for copies of my CRP (certificate of rent paid) of which he requested $25 per copy, of which is highly illegal and I had to address my lawyer of which they confirmed what he is doing is highly illegal! DO NOT RENT OR BUY FROM THIS SLUMLORD! He is by far one of the worst examples of what it is to be a quality landlord, not to mention quality human. STAY FAR AWAY! After requesting my CRPs for the final time his last response to me was: "were done here"

We have worked with Brian for several years now, in multiple capacities. As a realtor, he is…read moreexcellent. He has a vast knowledge of "house internals" and can spot areas of concern even if there isn't an obvious issue. He understands how the market works, and knows how to play within it. He doesn't over- or under-sell, but also does provide whatever input and opinions you need when trying to decide about making offers. In our case we decided to rent instead of buy, and he helped us find our current rental home. As the manager of our rental, he is beyond amazing. His average response time to any questions or issues is probably about 3-5 minutes, and if there is ever anything which requires maintenance he stays on top of the issue even past the time when it gets fixed... and makes sure it does get fixed in a timely manner. He is also able to come up with creative solutions to issues when they become especially sticky. He is helpful, courteous, professional, and sensitive... and obviously cares about the well-being of his tenants. All in all, we would recommend Brian to anyone who has any situation involving real estate or rental properties!

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.
