Testimonials

“Steve and I interviewed several realtors to help sell our Shoreview, MN home, as it was a priority of ours to sell our home quickly and for as much as possible in this soft real estate market.  Knowing that more than 96% of home buyers conduct their home search online, we wanted a realtor that had a strong online presence in Shoreview.  And Brian fit this bill nicely! 

With Brian's excellent marketing and advertising exposure, we had a signed purchase agreement on our home in just 27 days!  And the service didn't stop there, of course, as Brian also helped us find a wonderful new home (with a bit more space) for our growing family.  You won't be disappointed with Brian Carion as your real estate agent!”

“We were first time home buyers, and Brian was so wonderful in explaining the home buying process!  Not only did he paint a clear picture of expectations for us, but he was also very prompt with all communication and always had an immediate answer to all of our questions.

We first met Brian in one of the real estate seminars he teaches in the St. Paul Community Education Program.  His knowledge of real estate and home repair was very evident, and after taking his 3-hour course, we wanted to work with no other realtor...and we are very selective people!” 

“If you are serious about selling your house (even in this market), then you need to speak with Brian Carion.  His vast knowledge of online advertising, and affiliation with The Minnesota Real Estate Team, will have your home's for sale listing syndicated across 80+ top-ranked Minnesota websites.  Not to mention, he'll advertise your home on 100.3 FM's The Minnesota Real Estate Radio Show.  Nicki and I were so pleased with Brian's professionalism and attention to detail.  And he was able to provide us with weekly stats of how many people were viewing our listing.  We were able to couple these online stats with the showing feedback we were receiving to know how correctly our home was priced.  It was very helpful and reassuring to know that we sold our home for the best possible price!

We were also upgrade home buyers, and Brian's knowledge of the Lake Elmo and Stillwater areas was superb in finding the perfect new home for our family.  Schools were a top priority for us, and just like the online viewing stats Brian was able to provide us, he was also able to provide us objective data and information on the local school districts.  We were very fortunate to have Brian as our real estate agent.”  

“With the help of Brian Carion, I became a landlord in less than 60 days!  The “landlord system” that Brian taught me really does work!

But more importantly, I want to tell you how much I appreciated having Brian’s help with the whole process. Besides providing a wealth of knowledge regarding real estate, construction, and the mountains of paperwork, Brian was a constant supportive and encouraging presence while we worked on finding, buying, and getting the property rented. 

He has certainly gone “above and beyond” what I would expect from a real estate agent – he even did some minor repairs for me when the sellers balked at fixing some items.  I have highly recommended Brian to anyone and everyone that I know – please feel free to use any part of this as a testimonial on your web site so I can recommend you to those I don’t know!” 

“Brian Carion’s eye for detail and background in engineering well-equipped him to provide insights far beyond what we heard from other agents.  We could consider the layout and appearance of the houses we looked at and know he was looking for cracks, level floors, straight walls, assessing the mechanicals, etc., etc., etc.

There was never any pressure from Brian and our schedule was his schedule.  Because of his great attention to detail, we never worried about anything falling through the cracks.  We highly recommend him!”
