We’d just moved to Minneapolis and met Nicholas at an open house. At that time, we’d just started looking around for a home, mostly to understand what the market in the twin cities looked like. From that first conversation, it was clear that Nicholas had a strong grasp of the housing market, not just single-family homes but multifamily as well. However, in addition to being new to the city, we are also both extremely particular and while we were first-time homeowners, we also were definitely not looking for a starter home. To that end, we went to dozens of open houses and subsequently met dozens of realtors. From the dozens we met, we ended up working with two and saw even more houses (very particular ??). It became clear that Nicholas just works harder than other realtors: finding more properties and getting a better grasp of what we were and were not looking for. Throughout the process, Nicholas worked patiently with us, even as we ignored some of his advice and had a couple of offers fall through. In the end, we landed a great deal on a home that was perfect for us and Nicholas continues to be an excellent resource even after closing.
