Unfortunately, we have relocated too many times. But in all of our international assignments, we have never had anybody do 10% of what you have done for me and my family. You made the experience seamless and enjoyable.”

I cannot tell you enough about how much help the Wille Group has been with our move. The big truck is packed now and Mike & the kids should have real beds (in a clean house, thanks to you!) by Sunday night. You’ve made all of this possible in a much quicker fashion than I thought possible. Thank you so much!”

“Not only was the Wille Group experts in our neighborhood, they marketed our home with a feeling for its true material and emotional value. Their attention to detail and hands-on approach offered a sense of comprehensive service that one always hopes for but seldom really receives. ” ~ Nora G

My experience working with Michael is like taking an anti-depressant, only cheaper and without the side-effects!”

V.D., M.D.

We had a very specific idea of what we wanted in a home, but were overwhelmed and uneducated about the process. After being introduced to Josh Zuehlke we were soon at ease. We realized that finding the place that we dreamed of was not only possible, but that the search was going to be enjoyable as well. Our circumstances in buying were uncertain and difficult. Josh was very personable and up-front, always suggesting possibilities and carrying through in the very best of our interest. With the help and hard work of Josh, we own a wonderful home. We will always put our trust in Josh Zuehlke and the rest of the Wille Group at Coldwell Banker Burnet with our real estate needs.

Michael is going to be Canonized whether or not he is Catholic…..I am writing to the Pope! He is over-the-top-fabulous. I’m telling everyone that he is the world’s greatest ever realtor!

Josh possesses all the attributes of an excellent real estate agent. He knows his market extremely well – knows what’s for sale, knows the comps and is very good at assessing value. Josh has a large network of clients, investors and real estate professionals. This network allowed him to almost sell my place before I even signed the paper work to hire Josh. Josh and his staff are professional, personable, proactive and very responsive. He takes pride in a job well done!”

We didn’t know what to expect from the process. We are so grateful that we found Josh to guide us through. He is knowledgeable about both the Minneapolis/St. Paul neighborhoods and about home construction, style, and most importantly, potential. He also gave wise counsel when we decided to submit an offer, working with us to craft a successful bid that worked for us and our budget. His thoughtful attention to detail and patient explanation of the process at every step calmed our nerves and gave us confidence. Josh was accessible and generous with his time, meeting us with coffee and jokes at every outing. He made house hunting a blast and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the outcome.

My greatest satisfaction came not from the fact that the Wille Group was able to sell my home for a price greater than my asking, but from the fact that Michael Wille confirmed, through his personal demeanor over the entire time of our relationship, my initial assessment of him as a man of integrity, honesty and high professional standards. I trust him. And in today’s world that says it all.”

Joel G.

Michael, thank you for ALL that you have done. I love our house!!!! And we never could have pulled this off long distance without you. I still can’t believe this all worked out so well. Y’all are the best!

Ainslie P.

Due to relocation, we had a very short time line to find a home. The Wille Group went beyond our expectation by locating a person who speaks our language, as we are not native to the USA. The Wille Group supported us not only in purchasing a home; but also in renovating it. The Wille Group has credibility, extensive experience, and a faithful staff which allowed us to feel confidence during our real state transaction. Thank you for providing us with a good beginning in Minneapolis!”

Carolina B.

Michael and his team helped us prepare our home for sale, sold our house for our asking price, and then helped us negotiate a terrific price on our new house – all in two months. We highly recommend the Wille Group.”

Matt and Lori T.

The Wille Group presented a thorough analysis and business plan to sell our home. During each part of the process, our results exceeded our expectations. If you have an upper-end home, don’t trust your #1 asset to anyone else!”

John S., CFO Cadbury Schwepps

We were very impressed, and more importantly, well served by the Wille Group. They knew the market, gave us sound advice, managed all of the details perfectly, and got our house SOLD in this tough market. Plus they were just good to deal with. We plan to recommend them to all of our friends.”

Scott and Jean C.

Our experience working with the Wille Group was very enjoyable. The advice and support we received was invaluable, and Michael’s team did an outstanding job – I absolutely recommend him.”

Claudio C., International Business Counselor

Thank you so much for everything! Thank you for making our journey meaningful, informative, and smooth! We were able to get a good handle on the area because of your time and dedication.

Robin C. & Kevin K.

We were tough clients and Michael did an excellent job understanding our needs and helping us resolve issues with the home so that the entire process was very smooth. He went above and beyond what I ever expected, and made sure our relocation was a positive experience for my entire family. My expectations were very high, and you exceeded them”

Sarah S, HR Director

Choosing Josh to guide the process of selling the family home was guided by three objectives. 1) The correct company. The Coldwell Banker Burnet Lakes office was the clear standout in leading the market in the Minneapolis Lakes area. 2) The right group. The Willie Group represents the upper bracket of the market and holds a strong steadfast position as a leader in this market segment. Most importantly this leadership position is 11 years in the making … a very important consideration. 3) The best agent. Josh Zuehlke has established himself as one of the most active and successful agents among his pier group. When interviewing, Josh arrived armed with all relevant data needed to establish the go forward plan which enabled frank direct discussion. The price range was discussed along with the advantages and drawbacks of each position within the range. After the price was set Josh managed the details connected with the marketing, showing, sale and closing of the property. We have referred Josh three times since our closing and each time we received glowing reports. We are not that easy to please, we expect a lot from a professional and Josh delivered in every respect.” -Jeff & Brenda L.
