A bit about me

We all have so many aspects of ourselves spread across a wide array of passions and interests. Real estate surprises me every day with how much of myself I get to pour into it. On any given day I get to be an advisor, an ear to listen, a data analyst, a marketer, a negotiator, and a friend.

I’m fortunate to be able to draw from a diverse background of experiences to serve my clients. It would be a privilege to walk this journey with you!

Here before, here after. Caretakers for a time.

We’re usually not the first owners of our homes. Often these houses of ours are fifty, seventy, or even a hundred years old. I sometimes get a shiver thinking of all the lives lived in these places. Whether you’re the second or the seventh owner, you pick up the mantle where the last person left off. Fill the rooms with your memories and joy, and when it’s time, pass it on to the next steward.

I feel so grateful to be able to walk through these special transitions with my clients.

Working with Cole and his team at Anderson Realty made our home-selling endeavor seemingly effortless. clear and thoughtful communication throughout our process, a very team-oriented and caring approach. I will absolutely be working with Cole again in the future.

Amanda & Pete

We can't recommend Cole enough! This was our first home buying experience, and he did everything possible to make sure that we felt confident and prepared. In our first meeting, Cole made sure to get a sense of who we were and what we were looking for (even though we didn't have a full sense of what we wanted in our first meeting). As we looked at houses, Cole helped educate us on the lay of the land, what types of projects different houses would entail, and how to evaluate the work that had already been put into a house. Throughout the entire process, Cole made it clear that he was genuinely interested in us finding a house we wanted and understanding what we were getting into.

Buying a home can be stressful, but it can also be a lot of fun. We are thankful that Cole could balance both parts as we were looking for our first home. Thanks again, Cole!

Greg & Aimee

We couldn’t have been happier with our experience with Cole. He’s personable and we felt extremely comfortable with him from the get-go. We were new to the Twin Cities and unfamiliar with neighborhoods and house styles in the area. Cole introduced us to several neighborhoods and showed us a wide variety of houses in our broad price range. Along the way, he talked us through the differences in neighborhoods and helped us understand the advantages and disadvantages of each location so that we’d feel comfortable with our decision when we were ready to make an offer.

Cole would always go above and beyond. On several occasions, he rushed over to a house to do a video walkthrough for us when we were unable to get to the Cities for a house we were particularly interested in. When we asked for advice on several items once we purchased our house, he stepped up again.

He even recommended a flooring company that we ended up going with when we struggled to find one on our own. 5 stars, two thumbs up, and a gold star to Cole for all he did for us in our house search!

Colin & Haley

My wife and I have nothing but positives to say about Cole. When we had our first meeting, he explained the house buying process in a way that we could understand as first time home buyers. Cole was patient during the process, and at no point did we feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. He stayed on top of available homes, and helped us understand the pro's and con's of each listing that we visited. Eventually we narrowed down our search and Cole helped us navigate the complicated process of actually placing an offer and completing the inspection steps. I couldn't recommend Cole more to prospective home buyers, especially if you are looking in Minneapolis or the surrounding suburbs.
