Direct, Hands-On Representation
When you hire Alex, you work directly with him from start to finish rather than being passed to a team member. He personally handles communication, negotiations, and strategy so nothing is overlooked.
Respect for the Home and Its Story
Alex treats estate properties with care and respect, recognizing that they often represent decades of memories. Families notice that he never treats a home as just another distressed listing and understands that often times homes may fall into disrepair during a person’s declining health.
Honest Pricing and Market Reality
Alex focuses on realistic pricing backed by clear comps and local market data so estates sell without unnecessary delays. Families appreciate his transparency when a home needs work and his refusal to overpromise just to win the listing.
Multiple Local Awards & High Ratings
Alex has been voted Best Real Estate Agent in Rochester MN multiple times by Post Bulletin and local awards, showing strong community recognition. He also has 300+ verified five-star client reviews across Google, Facebook, Zillow, and other platforms — a strong signal of consistent client satisfaction.
Strong Communication With Multiple Heirs
Inherited home sales often involve multiple decision-makers, sometimes in different locations. Alex keeps everyone informed, documents decisions clearly, and helps prevent misunderstandings that can delay or complicate the sale.
Education-Focused Approach That Reduces Stress
Alex prioritizes explaining each step in plain language so families always know what is happening and why. This education-first mindset helps inherited home sellers feel informed, supported, and in control.
“Our complicated situation of the death of a loved one and having to list her house to get it sold.”
I met Alex through detailed online research. I explained our complicated situation of the death of a loved one and having to list her house to get it sold. He said he could help and on a personal level spoke of his recent loss of his beautiful fur baby Ayla. I felt confident and comfortable with choosing Alex. We worked together to get through the tough stuff and we closed on the house on March 10th. The house was listed in February and after about a week and a half we had a buyer. I am very pleased with the outcome and am happy to have chosen Alex to work with us! I highly recommend him if you are looking to buy or sell your house!
