Bob sold our old house, and more important, helped us purchase a new house. In the purchase of the new house, which was not on the market yet, his expertise was invaluable--he got the realtor who was going to sell the house not to have an open house, which allowed us to buy it with a full price offer without going into multiple offers and overbids.
Most significantly, he was a great source of information on other professionals, especially for inspections. Last, he made a point of being on site for the loan appraisals (at both of our houses) so the appraisers understood the values. This made the loan processes for us and our buyer much easier. Bob really works his listings hard, and gave us lots of good advice when we sold our old house. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor in Minnesota or Wisconsin!
