Ryli helped me and my Fiancé buy our first home together! She was prompt, kind, honest, and flexible! We originally requested a tour on Zillow of a house for fun, and Ryli met us at the home and gave us all of the information around first home buying and information around her team and company. Going into this process, we had almost no knowledge about the home buying process, and we had a LOT of questions. At no point did we feel pressured, rushed, or belittled about our beginner mindset. Ryli’s approach really helped us feel ready to buy a home. She set up tours across the twin cities so fast and was available literally any time to answer our questions, over text, email, and on the phone. She set up multiple tours in one day a few times for us, which was so helpful with our work schedules, and was so flexible to meet us on weekends and evenings. Once we found the right home, it was clear she had our best interests in mind when negotiating and making big decisions. She explained everything so well and really took the anxiety and fear out of home buying for us. (Seriously, I found myself thinking “why do people get so stressed out when buying a home? It’s not that hard.”)
Through the closing process, Ryli offered us a ton of resources for every piece of the puzzle; inspection, financing, warranty, title details, home owners insurance, contractors (for pre AND post close needs), everything! We didn’t have to go on the hunt for a single thing, which was so helpful!
During the negotiation process, Ryli was persistent and invested in helping us get the most out of our budget. Our closing process hit a few bumps due to the seller, and Ryli managed the situations very professionally. She openly communicated with us and clearly walked us through what next steps would look like, and she ended up getting us closed way quicker than we expected given the circumstances! Everything worked out so perfectly, and we couldn’t be more thankful to Ryli for helping us find our perfect first home. I would recommend Ryli to ANYONE looking to buy a home and is scared, confused, and nervous about the process. Plus, she’s so nice and personable, and I felt like a friend and not just a client, which is such a great feeling when moving through such a big life event like this.
Working with Tara was such a relief in our first home buying experience as she made the whole process feel easy and bearable, also fun! We found our dream home, and wouldn't have possible without Tara, can't recommend her enough!

This is our second time having Amanda Peterson as our realtor to buy a home. She also helped us sell our first home too. She was very patient and helpful on both transactions. Whenever anything she came up she was quick to handle it. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely use Amanda again in the future.

Working with Kourtney to buy my first home was an amazing experience. As someone purchasing a house completely on my own, the process felt overwhelming at times, but Kourtney made everything feel manageable and even exciting. She was incredibly supportive, patient, and knowledgeable every step of the way.
Kourtney took the time to really understand what I was looking for and never made me feel rushed or pressured. She answered all my questions, explained the details clearly, and made sure I felt confident in every decision. Having someone in my corner who genuinely cared made such a big difference.
What made the experience even more special was the friendship that came with it. It’s funny to think we went from working out together at Orangetheory to her helping me find and buy my very first home. Somewhere along the way, our home searches turned into coffee dates and real conversations, and I’ll truly miss those moments. She wasn’t just my realtor—she became a friend throughout the process.
Because of her dedication and guidance, I was able to successfully buy my first home on my own, which is something I’m really proud of. Kourtney helped turn what could have been a stressful experience into a positive and empowering one.
I’m so grateful for all the time and effort she put into helping me find the right place. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares about her clients and goes the extra mile, I can’t recommend Kourtney enough.

Buying a house is a stressful life event, but with Jackie, we knew we were in great hands. Jackie went above and beyond in listening to our wants, needs, and concerns. She kept us on the right track with her communication and organization skills. We saw so many houses, and when we found the one, she helped us put in an amazing offer, and we were accepted the same day! We couldn't have survived this process without our realtor, Jackie!

We were out-of-state buyers looking for a townhouse or condo in St Paul. We were fortunate to have Camila Merriam-Colareta, of the Kerby and Cristina agency, working with and for us. Camila was extremely personable and professional, and she worked diligently to help us find a great property. She never once tried to pressure us, and at all times was driven by our best interests. Camila was there for us during every phase of the process--from the very beginning when we weren't even sure what type of place we wanted or where geographically we wanted to be, to the negotiations, to the inspection, and right up through the closing. Camila was fantastic and we heartily recommend her! --Mike and Jeannie Sanders

We had an amazing experience buying a house and it was all owed to Jesus Martinez. He listened to our needs and wants in a house, curated a search and this allowed us to find our new home. Jesus worked with us, nights and weekends, answering questions at all hours, explaining the process and making an offer the sellers couldn’t refuse! He made the buying process painless and we love our new home. Jesus truly went above and beyond for us and his knowledge in the industry is unmatched. He made us feel comfortable and confident we were with the right team.

Allie Guerra was absolutely fantastic in helping my wife and me both sell our old home and buy our new one. The buying process was smooth was super quick! We put it an offer the same day and Allie helped us negotiate a few things that worked out in our favor! The selling side hit some turbulence due to market conditions which made things stressful at times. But Allie was outstanding throughout. Her communication skills were 10/10—she kept us fully involved and informed every step of the way, responding promptly to every question, explaining options clearly, and never leaving us in the dark. We're so grateful for her expertise, patience, and dedication to us. If you're looking for a realtor who truly puts her clients first, Allie is the one. We highly recommend!

Working with Val to purchase my first home was wonderful. It started out when I was 8 weeks pregnant and stressed out, thinking that home ownership was out of reach. We met for coffee and scones/doughnuts (her treat). I immediately felt comfortable and trusted her 100%. Her being a mom of 4 and a working mom was very comforting. I love how the company pairs you with someone who is a good fit to your personality and needs. I am now 7 months along and closed on my first home. I was gifted a baby carrier and she also left a surprise in the home for me to find. She was very knowledgeable and kind. I made a life long friend. I highly recommend Valerie and the company.

Our realtor, Kaylee, was absolutely exceptional to work with. She is incredibly knowledgeable, proactive, and responsive, and she guided us through a very complex transaction with clarity and confidence!
Our closing was especially challenging, with a lot of moving parts and last-minute issues, and Kaylee stayed completely on top of everything. She communicated clearly, advocated for us at every step, and helped us make smart, informed decisions under pressure.
Her calm, steady presence made an otherwise stressful process manageable!! I would highly recommend Kaylee to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and highly competent realtor!
