Sarah helped us successfully sell 40 acres of land, and we couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent. Growing up, my father (who ran a small CPA firm) always told us, "Hire farmers — they always work hard." Sarah, a local farmer in Scandia, truly embodies that work ethic. She is extremely professional, honest, and ethical; provides sound pricing advice; answers questions immediately; and brings integrity to every aspect of the process. Most importantly, she is simply a wonderful person to work with. I highly recommend Sarah for any real estate transaction.

Sarah is very experienced and was beyond helpful in communicating with us on what our house would be worth, how it was set apart from other similar properties in order to maximize on that, and was very efficient in handling the process with us. Her estimate was very close to what our house sold for, even for selling during winter months. Her advice on how to get it ready for showings was spot-on. She was very available when we had questions. She has an EXCELLENT attitude for customer service. We felt impressed that it seemed she did her absolute best to help us make a good sale and feel happy about the whole process in the end. We highly recommend her!

Sarah was very professional but she was also very easygoing and went above and beyond to meet my specific needs. I was buying and selling all while starting a new job in a new state 1600 miles away but she helped keep things moving forward and I learned a lot from her. I would recommend her to friends and family and would gladly work with her again!

This is the third time Sarah has been our realtor. We sold a townhome in St. Paul, and bought the house in North Branch eleven years ago. Of course, we called Sarah again when we wanted to sell our North Branch house. Sarah is so knowledgeable and walked us through the housing disclosure process. She priced our house perfectly, which attracted ten showings in the first three days the house was on the market. And that was in the winter with snow and ice in the driveway! If I had a question, I texted Sarah, and she answered almost as soon as I hit Send. Sarah arranged the photography of the house for sale, and the young photographer made our house look great! Sarah is now working with her husband, Steve, and he is a great addition. Steve went off with my husband to discuss various fixes to the house as he is an experienced contractor. They are a great team so we got two-for-one when we hired Sarah.

Sarah did a great job helping me get into my home, I had a smaller selection of houses for the area I was looking in and for my price range, Sarah was always open to looking at any house and gave me advice on the work that would need to go into the house. There was many late nights and early mornings either I had questions and things needed to be dealt with and Sarah was always fast to respond and answer my questions. Even after closing Sarah has checked in to make sure everything is going smoothly for me.

Sarah was amazing to work with, her experience and history in the area was what I was looking for.

I can't sing praises for the performance of Sarah Nell Johnson enough. When it is time to sell my property, I will be calling Sarah. Thank you, Sarah.

Sarah was fantastic. When she first met with us she came prepared with pics and comps in the area. Gave us ideas on what we could do to improve the house prior to putting it on the market without breaking the bank. She is very honest and always communicated with us on every aspect with selling our home.

Sarah helped us with every aspect of getting us into our first home. A true educator, she brought our real estate knowledge from zero to one hundred in a matter of weeks. Sarah expertly coached us through the offer process completely objectively, giving us clear options without trying to influence us whatsoever as to which to choose or how much to offer. Sarah is an educator and guide in the best way imaginable (plus just a super fun person!) and she is on top of every single thing, including anticipating and preventing obstacles. She was also extremely available to help us see homes and answer any questions. She’s not sales-y at all and we only ever felt fully supported. Thanks to Sarah, we put together a successful offer and are now living in a beautiful home in our ideal location!

I've had the pleasure of working with Sarah twice--once when buying a home years ago and most recently when selling it in December 2021. She is an excellent realtor. She is well-organized, extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and current with trends in the market. She is super-responsive and communicates regularly, helping clients every step of the way. In addition, she is a delightful person who works hard for her clients. I whole-heartedly recommend her!

If there was a definition for “above and beyond” Sarah’s picture would be right next to it! This is exactly what she does for the people she works with! She’s very straight forward, advocates for your needs and wants, and is very knowledgeable about everything Real Estate! She isn’t just a real estate agent - she turns into a lifelong friend! She helped our family find the house that checked off ALL of our needs and wants, and went beyond that by helping our family fix certain things in our home after closing. We were a week away from closing when my father passed away unexpectedly.. Sarah was so caring with her words, and also sent my family a gift to help ease the unexpected hurt and stress. I’ll never work with a different agent and will highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a home or to sell their home! She’s awesome, detail orientated, and will answer any questions you may ever have during the process!

We are super happy to have Sarah help us sell two of our homes. One home in St Paul and one in the county with acreage. Her knowledge expands both extremes of the market. She is always on top of the situation and provides excellent advice. The decision was always ours, but her advice was always spot on. We have used other Realtors in the past, but Sarah shines above all the others. Professional, personable and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
