CLIENTS COMMENT: "IN THEIR OWN WORDS..."
"Mike and Lindsay Strand played a vital role in the purchase of my home. As a first-time homebuyer trying to navigate through the foreclosure/short-sale minefield, the Strands were able to navigate me around the houses I should stay away from and pointed me towards the ones that showed promise. They worked with me from the beginning right up until last-minute negotiations before closing. The home I decided to buy had a couple issues that had to be sorted out before I purchased it; not the least was a $10k septic system that had to be replaced; and the Strands gave me pertinent advice through the entire process. If you are looking to buy or sell a house, I have no reservations about recommending the Strands as your Realtors." -Derek A.
"Thank you again for all of your assistance in helping us find the perfect home. Andy and I are pretty settled in and it really is feeling like "home" to us. I know it probably seemed like a long process but we are both so grateful for your patience."
-Amanda D.
"To prospective homebuyers and sellers,
Mike and Lindsay Strand are people who care about their clients. This care is demonstrated through a personal relationship that will focus on your unique needs and concerns. Selling a home can be a challenging ordeal, especially given the current marketplace. Mike and Lindsay offer sound and sensitive advice. They are proactive, positive, and professional.
We were living and working overseas during the initial process of selling our home in Eden Prairie. We contacted the Strands while living overseas. Mike and Lindsay quickly earned our trust, drafted a plan to sell our home, and prepared it for prospective buyers. Our house was on the market for six weeks and sold at a satisfactory price in spite of a challenging real estate environment. We tease them about selling our home without us having to be present!
Whether you are a buyer or seller, Team Strand will represent, take care of, and keep you in constant communication. We’ve bought and sold a number of properties over the past years and give Mike and Lindsay Strand our highest recommendation. Let them put their real estate skills to work for you on your next home purchase or sale."
Sincerely,
Tom & Joyce

"You give realtors a good name (which is a big compliment from us because we have worked with some who have left us feeling disappointed). By covering every detail with thank you notes, follow-up calls, market information, etc, you stood out as special, committed and professional. We truly appreciate the time you invested in us..."

Paulina and Bo had lived both internationally and in New York City for several years when they chose to relocate to Minneapolis to raise their two children and be closer to family members. "Mike and Lindsay have such great chemistry together as agents and wonderful patience with their clients. We developed a true relationship in which they were open and honest people we could trust. They offered their advice without hesitation, but listened carefully to us and honored our opinions. They did not hesitate to go the extra mile to find the right home for us, or to help make a sale come together. And we had fun, too."

Their enthusiasm, dedication and creativity equally contributed to not only realizing the desired results but moreover exceeding all of my expectations.

"Mike and Lindsay helped us realize our dream to own the"perfect"lake property. They carefully analyzed the very specific criteria my husband and I had and showed us property in two states. They recognized immediately when the right property came on the market, drove 4 hours north to help us make our decision and we made an offer the first week it was available. The closing was a breeze!"
- Jim & Kim H.
"Mike was an excellent guide who provided outstanding advice every step of the way in selling our home of 16 years. It’s very emotional to decide to sell the home in which you’ve raised a family, but I couldn’t be happier with the house Mike helped me find. His professionalism, attentiveness to my needs and calm but firm negotiating style helped me make a great transition." - Meredith H. 
"As a first-time homebuyer, Mike and Lindsay made a very intimidating process smooth and easy. They listened to all of our house desires and made them become a reality! They are great people to work with and they treat you like family."

"Thank you once again for making our first home buying experience an exciting and worry-free experience. We couldn't be happier with the condo! We will most certainly come to you in the future when purchasing a home to accommodate our growing family."
