From the first conversation, their team was straightforward, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They walked us through different cabinet styles, materials, and pricing options without any sales pressure. We ended up starting with a custom bathroom vanity instead, and the quality was excellent. The craftsmanship and detail really stand out. I decided to stain and finish the vanity myself, and they were incredibly helpful along the way. When I made a few mistakes, they remade some cabinet parts without hesitation. That kind of support is rare. Great experience overall. Fair pricing, high-quality work, and a team that genuinely cares about the end result. Would absolutely work with them again.

I have been excited to close on my house to finally be a first-time homeowner... but also to…read moreofficially write a rave review of Alex. I'm not exaggerating! Alex went above and beyond from the very beginning, and he continues to do so past closing. He would send me potential homes that met our criteria through the Edina Realty portal. I was impressed when he would add so much helpful (yet unbiased) information when we'd go to showings together. From selling and investing in homes for many years, he has so much valuable experience! Alex basically held my hand through the entire closing process since I'm such a home-buying n00b. He was always available for questions and I felt like he had our back through every one of our decisions and requests. After closing, he continues to offer help and advice as we look to make updates. I cannot imagine a better buying experience and I almost feel bad for people who don't have him as a realtor. I cannot recommend him enough to help you buy or sell property!

We've used Alex several times and you won't find a realtor more committed to making sure his…read moreclients have the best possible outcome when buying or selling a home. He was always professional, listened to our needs, found us some fantastic homes to look at, and kept us informed at every step of the process. He was our realtor when we sold both our homes, and each time it sold faster than we expected and for more money than we'd hoped for. He is very passionate about taking care of his clients and we never felt like he wasn't constantly fighting for us. We've since moved out of state (and we're sad we can't use him where we live), but if we were still in Minnesota, we wouldn't even consider using another realtor while he was in the business.

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!

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.

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!

I don't know where to start with how awful this company is. My girlfriend and I moved into a place…read morethat they manage in June of 2018 and have had literally nothing but problems from that day forward with this company. They decided to switch our contact and who we were dealing with to get keys and to let us into the building. We had a plan in place to show up at a certain day, get keys, and move small items in. Of course when they switched people they neglected to tell us this and we were left waiting at the townhouse with no keys and no representative from Vibrant. When we moved in the townhouse was an absolute pigsty. There was dust on the main ac vent at least 4 inches thick, all of the screens were either filthy or had multiple holes in them, multiple holes were left in the walls, multiple light bulbs were burned out and multiple items were left by the previous tenant. They then took any and all paint and wall repair items because "oh our wonderful handyman can take care of this". Keep in mind they had two months to clean all of this up and have it taken care of before our move in date, but chose not to do that. As if moving day isn't stressful enough these people decided it'd be a good idea to replace the refrigerator and microwave on our first day of moving in. You would think this would take about an hour or two at most but their "stellar" handyman took about six hours to do this all while we were trying to move in. They also snuck into the lease (which we didn't get until the second day of moving in) that we had to pay for the home service plus plan to cover the appliances even though we're the renters and not the owners which is another $45 a month. At this point we should have not signed the lease and tried to live somewhere else but didn't really have a choice. They refuse to send the handyman to the unit unless someone is home so if you need anything at all you have to take off work because he won't come outside of normal business hours or let himself in unless someone is home. It took about 2 months of living there for these incompetent morons to even schedule a window cleaning that should have been done before we moved in. They also are in the stone age when it comes to accepting rent. They'll only take it in check form and even if you date it the 5th they'll cash it the 1st which should be illegal. They've "tried multiple online payment options" all of which are unheard of and completely asinine compared to a simple paypal or venmo account. The garage is a nice plus but you better hope you never lose power or you won't be able to get in. There is supposed to be a key that will release a latch in the garage in the event of a power issue, but this God awful company isn't willing to spend $100 to get a replacement unit/key even though one was never provided to us. Even with all of this absolute absurdity and hassle my girlfriend and I liked the location and actual townhouse enough to want to live there another year. In April of this year we asked about getting a lease renewal since you're basically required to give a 2 months notice here. We got the lease sometime in mid June - approximately 2 months after we asked for it and after our current lease had expired. This is basically the norm for this incredibly incompetent company. Don't expect a response via e-mail or a call back in a timely manner or any amount of time short of at least 2 weeks. They then decided to sneak in a section at the end covering maintenance even though they told us the lease would remain the same. They now want to charge us a trip charge if this "handyman" that can barely rip open a wet paper bag comes to the unit, then charge for time and materials. We also are required to rent a carpet cleaner at the end of the lease and send in a receipt to them. Never in my life have I seen someone place such unfair and unrealistic expectations on the renters of a unit. The whole point of renting is to not pay for those things since it isn't actually any of your things in the unit. This company apparently can't seem to understand why that's unreasonable. We waited a bit to sign the lease which my girlfriend did electronically. They never actually sent me the lease however and I've asked about it a few times since in the last few weeks. I've gotten maybe one response that they sent it over and to check my spam folder. I've been checking my spam folder and e-mail in general meticulously the past two weeks looking for this lease and lo and behold nothing has showed up. It finally did show up after waiting a couple weeks. This is hands down the absolute worst company I think I have ever dealt with, not only for renting but just for anything in general. They have so much turnover that every time you talk to them it's someone new either e-mailing or calling you. This company has single handedly caused so much hassle, frustration and irritation it's almost unfathomable. Avoid this incredibly awful company at all costs.

I have had nothing but bad experiences with Homestead Road on both sides of working with them…read more On the seller side they give lowball cash offers, and try to leverage a sellers minimal understanding of the housing market to get houses cheap so they can resell. I know numerous people they have taken advantage of in this way. On the buyer side, the agents are slow to communicate and follow sketchy listing practices. (One house I saw listed by them was put on $100k above market value then re-listed every few days with $10k mark downs) the houses are often listed improperly (ex. 3B, 3BA homes with only 1 legally compliant bedroom that isn't disclosed in the listing) I've even seen agents who don't want to present their clients counter offers (which they are legally obliged to do) because it's a "waste of time". If you looking to buy or sell, I would stay away from here.
