Our business philosophy is quite simple & can be summed up with some of our favorite quotes...

 

We are honest!  No legacy is so rich as honesty.”  ...Shakespeare

We are caring! “Without a sense of caring, there can be no sense of community.” ...Anthony J. D'Angelo

We will listen!  So when you are listening to somebody, completely, attentively, then you are listening not only to the words, but also to the feeling of what is being conveyed, to the whole of it, not part of it.”       ... Jiddu Krishnamurti

We will keep you informed! “Think like a wise man but communicate in the language of the people.” ... William Yeats

Connie: "I grew up in southwestern Minnesota on a family farm. I obtained a nursing degree and worked as an RN in the mental health field. I can best be described as a 'people person' with a passion for conversation and relationships. I enjoy cooking, knitting and staying abreast on medical issues."

 Jim: "I was born and raised in the Twin Cities metro area. I have a BA degree in Urban Studies. I was part owner of a commercial contracting business for over 25 years. I enjoy reading adventure novels and have a love of history. "

We are licensed in the State of Minnesota, members of the National Association of REALTORS®, Minnesota Association of REALTORS® and the North Metro Association of REALTORS®.

We are certified Senior Advisors, which enables us to make a commitment to assisting the 55+ age group for their housing needs. If you are within this age group or have a friend or family member who is,  we would invite you to contact us to find out more about the changing and innovative housing market occurring within the Twin Cities and the options available. Along with our real estate expertise, we have joined together with other professionals who are dedicated to working with the 55+ group.

We were married in 1976 and have been blessed with three children. We have lived in the Plymouth/Maple Grove area for over 26 years and presently reside in Maple Grove. Each day begins with a quick work out, a walk with our dog, Chewy, and  bible study. 

We are actively involved in a local church. Our family sponsors a child, Rugamba Ayivoni,  from Rwanda, through Compassion International.
