Happy

Here are some of the lovely things our recent clients have said about working with
trueNorth partnership!

“Carolyn was recommended to me by a friend, and I’m glad she did. Her team is amazing – patient, thorough, knowledgeable, and hardworking. She provided me thorough comps, she supported my decision on my list price, she helped me coordinate a beautiful staging and photoshoot of the house, she helped me evaluate the three competing offers received, and she successfully closed the sale. When purchasing a home, she encouraged me to look at as many properties as needed, she did not rush my decision making, she scheduled multiple calls with me to go through writing a purchase agreement so that I could be prepared, she recommended wonderful mortgage brokers, and she advocated for me throughout the closing process which was particularly challenging when we ran into title issues in the last minute.”
–Alexis B.

“If you are looking for the most kind and knowledgeable real estate agent out there, look no further! I have worked with Carolyn to buy and sell multiple properties and I will use her until the day she retires. She’s so patient and accommodating, and listens to her clients. She’ll offer advice when asked, but supports your decisions from start to finish (as long as it’s in your best interest :)).”
–Sheridan R.

“This was our second transaction with Carolyn. Both times she went above and beyond. Everyone on her team is amazing. She really takes the time to listen and goes at a pace you’re comfortable with every step of the process. We have recommended her to friends and family and everyone has had an exceptional experience buying and selling a home with Carolyn.”
–Sarah K.

“Carolyn and her team were so knowledgeable and supportive throughout the home buying and selling process. Carolyn helped us to sell our home for an amazing price and helped us through the process of buying land and building our dream home. We recommend Carolyn to all of our family and friends.”
–Kayla D.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience than we had with Carolyn. We came from out of town with a very limited window to view houses, and Carolyn essentially devoted an entire weekend to us (my wife, my mother and me —all of us very and individually opinionated); we saw literally dozens of houses, and she was unfailingly patient, enthusiastic, understanding and deeply knowledgeable about everything we’d want to know about a potential new home. Deciding to make this move was a big psychological lift, but Carolyn’s involvement helped us make the decision with more certainty and confidence then we otherwise could have done.”
–Alex B.

“Carolyn is incredible. We have worked with her two times now and we’ve referred friends to her. She goes above and beyond and is incredibly knowledgeable about her work. Besides all that, she is a lovely human and a joy to be around!”
–Ashely P.

“Carolyn, always the professional but made these whole, very stressful, transactions so much fun. From the start, she did her research. Came up with a price for my house and an estimated timeline. Almost to the day, everything she said, was ABSOLUTELY correct. So insightful yet kind in her suggestions. Kept me on track, always. But especially when looking for a place to move to–during a Pandemic! She was not afraid but took serious considerations. Loved all of her suggestions. I can’t say enough good things about her.”
–Barb K.

“My husband and I bought our first house with Carolyn Gronfield in 2010 and she made sure it was a smooth process, going to bat for us when there were some details that the seller overlooked or didn’t agree on. She had the needed conversations in a strategic way to make sure that everyone was on the same page by the end so that everything went swimmingly at the closing. Ten years later, we were excited to go back to Carolyn and her team as we bought a house and sold our home. She walked us through our financing options in approachable, understandable language, helped us land our dream house in the same neighborhood we love (on the same street, no less!), and beat out other buyers in a tough market. She and her team were always available for questions, support, and information. We sold our old home within days of listing for over our list price, with three offers to choose from. I have always felt supported and informed as a seller and buyer with her. Beyond that, Carolyn loves what she does, is great at it, and made the process fun. I’ve recommended her to friends and family and they have all been thankful to have her in their corner, and had a great experience.”
–Suzanne M.

“We honestly don’t know what we would have done without Carolyn and her team. Every step of the way they were fast, professional and made us feel like we were going through this process with friends. Whether you are buying or selling you home, Carolyn is the only person you need to call.”
-Derrek H.

“Choosing Carolyn and her team to sell our house was one of the best decisions we have ever made. We honestly don’t know what we would have done without their level of expertise as well as their constant support throughout each step of the way while selling our house. Carolyn is detail oriented and has high standards which are both evident in the quality of her work. In addition, she ensures everyone understands and feels comfortable with all decisions that are being made during the selling process. She will not tire of questions and instead enjoys sharing her knowledge. We are so thankful that we had the opportunity to work with Carolyn and her team. We would recommend her to everyone looking to sell our buy a home.”
–Pramilla B.

“I have both bought and sold homes with Carolyn Gronfield on my side. She takes the time to educate her buyers/sellers, she defines jargon and breaks down complicated legal concepts. Having all of information upfront gave me confidence in the decisions I was making. There were no surprises that she didn’t predict, and we were prepared at every step. I went into both situations thinking that buying or selling should be stressful, but Carolyn demonstrated that having information takes away the fear of the unknown.  I would highly recommend Carolyn Gronfield.”
-Andrea C.

“Carolyn represented me in the sale of my home, which she SOLD in 2 days! She has been an amazing advocate and extremely helpful with negotiations. Always giving me her honest opinion but also ultimately allowing me to make final decisions. She is extremely knowledgeable and the consummate professional but, at the same time, I felt like I had a genuine friend in my corner. The results were, of course, the immediate and satisfactory sale of my home. I can honestly say, I wouldn’t deal with anyone else, whether buying or selling!”
-Lisa S.

“Carolyn Gronfield is highly professional and knowledgeable, as is her entire team. When we started looking to sell, a friend told us that Carolyn had helped him, so we arranged a meeting. It didn’t take long to see that she was the one to go with. Her communication was great. Carolyn took the time with us to make sure we understood the whole process, which was nice since we had been in our house for 26 years. She helped us understand the best ways to market our home, while being respectful of our thoughts and ideas. In the end, we were able to choose from among several offers. When we had to arrange some last-minute repairs, she helped make the situation less stressful. At closing, Carolyn was right there to help us with the details. I would whole-heartedly recommend her to any of my friends for their real estate needs.  From beginning to end, Carolyn was fantastic.”
-Scott L.

“Carolyn and her team are excellent! We used her to purchase our first home 12 years ago, then again ten years ago to sell and then purchase a new home. This year, she and her team helped sell that home for above asking in less than one week, as well as helped us find the home of our dreams. Would, and have, recommended her to others!”
-Tara T.

“Carolyn Gronfield and her team of associates were indispensable assisting my wife and I in finding a house. Engaged, resourceful, and tireless in her efforts, Carolyn would not (or perhaps could not) concede satisfaction until my wife and I were content with a home – not just a house, a home. Well over a dozen houses were shown, and every showing came with its positive and negative qualities. Carolyn approached every quality with dedication to our cause, expressing concern with honesty and approval with enthusiasm. Her team was just that, a ‘team’ in every sense of the word. Any time of any day of the week we were in communication via email, text message, and even phone. Thanks to her associates’ impressively timely communications skills we were able to secure an offer on the property we wanted during a last-minute change-of-heart from another buyer. Thanks to Carolyn and her team we found our home. I could not recommend Carolyn Gronfield more. Whether you are buying or selling, Carolyn makes you feel like you are her only customer and her highest priority.  She will find you a home, guaranteed.”
-Adam J. and Christy C.

“My wife and I used Carolyn and her team to help us buy our first home in South Minneapolis and couldn’t be happier with our choice. An important note: we researched quite a few agents and even met with another Realtor before deciding to go with Carolyn. Feel free to look around, but if you want to benefit from our hours of research and meetings — look no further! Carolyn is a great person, a very good educator, and an incredible pro. She is very wise to the finer points in real estate, and an exceptional negotiator — she really fought hard for us and for that we are so thankful.  She and her team never miss a beat and will keep you more involved in this process than you would ever expect.”
-Shane E.

“We had such a fun experience in our home search/purchase with Carolyn and her team. We were first time home buyers and she walked us thoroughly through the process every step of the way. She was great to work with, very knowledgeable and responsive. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions and she was very patient and helpful. We trusted her right off the bat and are thankful for the opportunity to have worked with her during such an exciting and potentially overwhelming time in our lives.”
