Seller consultation
An in-depth meeting focused on educating you about the selling process and determining the strategy best suited to sell your home.
1
Passing the torch
It can be tempting to cut corners when selling – put a sign in your yard, snap some photos, and hope your home will sell. But I believe anything worth doing is worth doing right. I know what it takes to meticulously prepare your home for the market and put you in a position to maximize your investment. It’s not just about selling, but selling right.
What’s your home worth?
For most people their homes are their largest asset. I take meticulous care when someone asks me to help them find a new steward for their home.
The steps
Prepare your home
It takes proper planning and sometimes a little elbow grease to get the most out of your investment when you sell. My team and I will walk you through our recommendations that make the most sense in your situation.

List and market

Seller FAQ
Is now a good time to sell?
We have a very cyclical market in the Twin Cities. Year over year we see times of year where homes sell quickly and times of year where they may take a bit more time. At the end of the day the right time isn't as much about the market as it is about your life, but if we can optimize for both we certainly will.
What’s my home worth?
The only way to have an accurate idea of your home's value is to have a local, qualified professional do an analysis for you. Be careful with online estimators. Occasionally they are close, but often they are way off. I'd be happy to evaluate your home for you, obligation free.
What do I need to do to prepare my home?
Every home benefits from some level of preparation. Sometimes it's little tweaks and other times it's a bit more that will net you a large return. My team and I will work with you to determine what makes sense in your case to net you the most for your home.
Should I renovate “XYZ” before I sell?
Everyone's favorite answer: "maybe". It's going to depend on a lot of different factors, but I will walk you through the numbers to understand what it looks like if you do the project and if you don't.
I’m not ready to sell yet, but I’d like to start preparing – can I reach out?
Of course! Making a transition like this takes timing, planning, and a sound strategy. I'd love to sit down and figure out what makes the most sense for your situation. Let's talk!
I own a home, how do I buy & sell at the same time?
There are a number of ways to make this transition. Determining the strategy that makes sense for you is dependent on your situation, and picking the wrong strategy can have big consequences. Let's sit down and chat through it together.

What my clients say
Max & Ben
Working with Cole felt like working with a friend.
Max & Ben
Working with Cole felt like working with a friend. We were first-time home buyers who didn’t really know what we were doing, but Cole answered all of our questions and made us feel confident in a difficult market.He made a point to really get to know us and understand our needs and preferences, and kept it all in mind as we toured each house. From our first conversation all the way through closing day, we felt like Cole had our best interests at heart.
On top of it all, his love for the Twin Cities area is obvious right away. He cares so much about this place and the people who live here!
Sam & Alex
He was friendly and approachable, and really knows his stuff.
Sam & Alex
My husband and I worked with Cole as first-time home buyers in spring of 2023. Cole was so wonderful to work with. He explained everything to us so thoroughly, and answered our million questions. We found the house of our dreams in St. Paul, and Cole handled everything perfectly - so we got the first offer we put in! I know that doesn’t happen every time, but I know we got the house partly because of his realty skills. He was friendly and approachable, and really knows his stuff. Pick Cole! You will be glad you did.Katy & Chris

Matt & Alex
Cole was amazing to work with! He was available for any and all of my first-time home-buyer questions even there to answer questions that I had about the financing of my house loan for a second opinion. I would recommend Cole to anyone looking to buy a house. He did all of the planning and made the whole process easy for me and also super enjoyable.Request an evaluation
