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.

Selling our home in…read moreMinneapolis could have been stressful, but he made the entire process seamless and even enjoyable. From the very first consultation, Eric provided expert guidance on pricing, staging, and marketing our property. Our home was beautifully showcased online and in person, attracting multiple offers in just a few days! Eric's knowledge of the Minneapolis market, attention to detail, and responsive communication made us feel supported every step of the way. What truly sets Eric apart is his dedication to clients. He went above and beyond to ensure that everything, from showings to negotiations, went smoothly, always keeping our best interests in mind. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and would recommend Eric Eickhof to anyone looking to sell their home in Minneapolis. If you want a real estate agent who is professional, approachable, and results-driven, look no further!

Fulton Realty is an untrustworthy company from the top down. They will take advantage of you as a…read morebuyer if given the opportunity. I worked with Nicole Battle as my realtor. She showed me one house that she highly recommended as her coworker was the person who renovated it and was selling it. It turns out it was a flip, and Shelbie Walsh did the renovations herself with the help of a handyman. It must have been Shelbie Walsh's first flip because nothing was done correctly. Throughout the buying process, Nicole Battle strongly encouraged me not to get an inspection because she was confident Shelbie Walsh did a great job rehabbing the house. I trusted Nicole Battle and Fulton Realty and felt that since they all worked together, they had my best interest in mind and understood that I was looking for an investment property to grow my portfolio. Nicole Battle and I never had a meeting to review the paperwork; I had to do this myself as an inexperienced buyer. After I closed, I noticed countless things wrong with the house. Shelbie Walsh did not install lighting fixtures and appliances correctly. Electrical hazards were apparent throughout the house and basement. The first-floor bathroom flooded within the first week. Floorboards were missing; there were defects in the ceiling and drywall. They lied about the number of bedrooms as one area was a passthrough and should not be counted as a bedroom. I could go on ... After living in the house for the first week, I realized I needed to get a post-sale inspection. The post-sale inspection raised additional issues that I was unaware of. The inspector raised 12 urgent issues I needed to resolve ASAP. Shelbie Walsh lied on the documents and stated things like an air conditioner would be left in the house, but it never was. All appliances were expected to be in working order, but the drying machine never worked. I raised these concerns to Fulton Realty and its owner Eric Eickhof (I believe he and Shelbie Walsh worked together on the seller's end as he was listed as representing the seller on Zillow). Eric Eickhof and Nicole Battle came by the house to have a look, and Eric Eickhof berated me after the meeting and told me they would not help resolve any of the issues raised. I called an appliance repair specialist. When they took apart the dryer, they were shocked to see that all of the wires were burnt and recommended that I purchase a new machine. This is just one example; I had to repair multiple appliances throughout the house. As a buyer, I expected to receive representation, but the team at Fulton worked together to put me in the worst possible position by not disclosing important information and encouraging me not to seek an inspection. I would not have purchased the house if I had the information provided in the inspection in advance of closing. Simply put, I overpaid for the house and had to spend tens of thousands of dollars resolving defects and buying new appliances. Besides the financial impact, my mental health plummeted while living in the house. My quality of life and outlook was bleak. Fortunately, I was able to sell the house 11 months later. I'm not sure if it's a lack of experience, negligence, or incompetence, but Fulton Realty is not a company I recommend trusting with one of the most important decisions you'll make.

Working with Kevin to buy my home was without a doubt perfect. I had had a couple of other realtors…read moreprior to Kevin and the experience was truly night and day. Kevin is knowledgeable and persistent and it showed by his work. He crawled under houses and went up in attics to really check out the property. This was critical to me as a first-time home buyer, without his knowledge and experience I would have likely been bamboozled into purchasing a house with lots of flaws I or a standard realtor would not find. To pair with his experience and dedication Kevin and his team understood exactly what I was looking for and were able to find an amazing option for me that checked all my boxes within my price range. They went out of their way to understand what I wanted and made it a reality. After I had an offer on a house his team was able to connect me with a lender, title company, and home inspector. Kevin even managed to secure me a new coffee table and side table for my living room, for free! Ultimately, I believe the most important trait about Kevin is I could trust him. At no point did I feel pressured to purchase and he was comfortable with my pace. Kevin was able to explain in layman's terms to me what he was looking at and was able to steer me away from properties that would not have been a good fit for me. By the end of my time working with Kevin, he had become a friend to me. Because of this, I will be using him again when the time comes!

We're not the kind of people who write gushy reviews. But when it comes to the Schatz Real Estate…read moreGroup, gush we must! Ted Schatz didn't just talk the talk about representing our interests. He consistently practiced what other agents only preach. He learned what matters most to us, and he went beyond published listings to help us rule out properties that wouldn't meet our needs. While Ted never substituted his own preferences, aversions, and priorities for ours, he was always delightfully candid in sharing his impressions and wisdom. When we finally decided to build a home, Ted helped us find and work with the right builder. He not only advocated effectively on our behalf, he offered valuable insights and suggestions that saved us thousands of dollars and got us more of what we wanted and less of what we didn't. One of the best things about Ted is that he's kept on keeping on! Although our new home is already under construction, much to our surprise and delight, Ted has stayed involved. At his initiative, he attends planning meetings and reviews, makes periodic onsite visits to the construction site, and seems eager to do whatever he can to make sure that the finished product will satisfy our needs and exceed our expectations. As a businessman, Ted obviously takes the long view. He seems to focus more on the journey than on the destination. Although it took us forever to find what we wanted, Ted never ever made us feel like we were wasting his time. We finished our long journey happy, grateful, and eager to sing Ted's praises. --Steve & Teresa Levinson

However, when my boyfriend closed on a house (they were also the sellers agent) the old owners were still packing up there things after closing! When we arrived to move his stuff in, the house was still full of the seller items, even a fridge full of food. Also, the house had not been cleaned AT ALL, like cat food in the bathroom and dog hair filling the kitchen! It was a really unfortunate situation for someone moving into their first home. What was expected to be such an exciting time moving in turned out to be 12+ hours of cleaning before even getting his stuff in. Like I said, the people were very kind and well educated on the area, but I expected more from them to make the moving process exciting and eas

He has very good knowledge of the south Mpls neighborhoods we were looking in, and is very good with the numbers. Mike set up many showings each time we were looking for a property even though our deals were not that big. He worked hard to get the deals done when we had decided what we wanted but was never pushy about trying to get us to put in an offer on a certain property. I would never consider using another realtor than Mike Little.

I stumbled across Aaron as a 20-something looking to buy my first house and he earned my business…read moreon our first phone call. He never hesitated to take me to see a home at the drop of a hat, and patiently worked with me for a year while I navigated a long distance relationship, engagement, and marriage not to mention narrowing down my own preferences - which created an eb and flow and transformation of what I was looking for in home - with incredible patience. When my fiancé (now husband) and I were ready to buy, Aaron put us in touch with a phenomenal lender. Together, they worked their processes to make our home-buying and financing experience seamless. As first-time homebuyers we closed on our home within three weeks. Three months at our new home, and we still can't get over how perfect it is for us. Aaron was always fast to respond to my questions - and there were many. I trusted his opinion (which we sought often) and leaned heavily on his expertise when it came to evaluating the home's value and quality, and especially when it came to drafting an offer and countering. When we gave him our final offer, he still managed to get the price down another 1k. Altogether we purchased our home for 15k less than it's original listing price which is no small thing in this competitive market. He was meticulous with process and paperwork and took the initiative to keep our lender informed of how the sale was progressing so those processes could move forward in tandem without us ever having to ask or relay information. We could not have asked for anything more from Aaron. He went above and beyond for us in every way and did so with tenacity and integrity - which I feel is a rare combination in todays RE world. We loved working with Aaron, and look forward to partnering with him regarding our real estate needs in the future.
