“My wife and I met Dave at an open house as we were casually starting our home search as first time buyers. Upon leaving, he pulled us aside, asked us a few questions, and said he would be thrilled to “interview for the job” of being our real estate agent. We loved his eagerness and could tell he was very knowledgeable. A week or so later, we met Dave at a coffee shop where he walked us through the entire process and we got to know each other better. As first time buyers, this step was so crucial for us! We felt comfortable asking the “rookie” questions and Dave did a great job making us feel confident and understood. From there things moved fast! We toured a couple homes together and BAM! We found the house we wanted and Dave helped us craft a strategy to win the offer. We got it in ONE! It was so exciting and Dave was invaluable from there as we went through all the necessary steps on our way to getting the keys in hand. His response time was amazing and we liked his ability to lay out our tasks step by step so we knew the next milestone we needed to get done. He is also very connected, which helped immensely, especially during the inspection period. You can tell he cares and Dave’s ability to make what could be a stressful situation fun was also a plus. I highly recommend Dave, especially if you’re a first time buyer!!” — Eric P.

“I hired Dave after briefly listing my duplex as For Sale By Owner. Dave worked well with all tenants and caused them to feel comfortable and informed about the sale. His positive communication with them likely increased cooperation during showings and inspections. Having felt that many real estate agents don't live up to their compensation, I did not feel this way about Dave and his willingness and ability to manage the entire sale process, including post-inspection negotiations with the buyer's agent. I would hire again and would recommend to those looking for an above-average agent.” - Dustin S.

“After testing out a few realtors, I ended up going with Dave and am extremely pleased with my decision. He was an amazing resource before, during, and after the home buying process. Friendly, timely, knowledgeable, and skilled - we won the bid on my new home as the third highest bid of five. Highly recommended to anyone looking to buy in the MSP area!” - Max B.

“Dave was with us every step of the way - including helping us buy while we were overseas! The knowledge of the market and the guidance for items to repair, clean, and purchase helped us feel confident our move would happen with as little stress as possible. Dave took care of all of the details and had referrals on hand for items we needed to complete throughout the process. We highly recommend him!” - Lisa M.

“Dave was an excellent realtor who managed to get us our house under contract in 9 days when we first signed with him! He is extremely knowledgeable of the market and able to pick up on nuances of houses to help advise but never dictate our needs. He is extremely prompt in responding to any questions we had and as first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions! I would recommend Dave for anyone looking in the Minneapolis area. He turned the idea of buying a house into a reality for us.” - Anthony F.

“Yes, Dave helped our family buy and sell a home, but he did so much more than that. With young children, the idea of selling a house, buying a new one, and moving felt daunting to say the least. Dave did an amazing job of managing our expectations, helping us negotiate, and navigating timelines - all while being understanding and empathetic to the emotional process of buying, selling, and moving. While we were at showings he was kind and fun with our kids which helped them be apart of the process and gave my husband and I the time we needed in each space. The house we ended up buying is a dream, and one that we didn't think we could afford. Dave helped us present our offer and adapt it to meet the needs of the seller-without that expertise, I am sure a higher offer would have been accepted. When it came to selling our former house, he helped us present our home in a way that drew in more showings than we imagined and resulted in us accepting an offer 8% over asking, which is higher than our neighborhood average. Dave made this process fun and enjoyable, because even when things got stressful in our personal lives, he helped us remember why we started this journey in the first place. I couldn't recommend Dave enough. He is knowledgeable, understands the market, knows how to negotiate, is personable and a pleasure to work with.” - Lindsey H.

“Dave helped us with the purchase of our first house and it was a dream. He got us into the type of house that we didn't think was possible. And throughout the process he was with us every step of the way, hearing and addressing our concerns and navigating the process which was totally new to us. Since our purchase, he has stayed in close contact and is genuinely invested in our family. WOW! When you are ready to buy or sell, give Dave a call. He's your guy!” - Matthew B.

“Dave is an extraordinary listener who genuinely wants to understand what the seller wants and needs so he can represent you properly. Although he will provide thoughtful suggestions for all those decisions along the route to a sale, he will go along with whatever the seller decides. He is creative in his ideas about strategies and he regularly provides reports about what sales are going on and how similar properties in the area are doing, so you always feel aware of the situation and any prospects. Finally, he takes care of all the little things that the seller isn't even aware of that might affect a potential buyer. Hire him, you'll be very glad you did.” - Leif S.

“Dave is absolutely incredible. He made our home buying process all about us and listened to us every step of the way. It was fun, encouraging, and quick. We got our home against 15 other offers and we were not the top offer either and Dave got it done. Fantastic every step of the way and he is a world class person!” - Tyler S.
