Brok helped my wife and me through the complicated process of bidding on and purchasing a government foreclosure. We have known Brok for many years, but this is the first time we've utilized his services as a real estate agent. Throughout the process, Brok provided clear and honest communication. In an adventure like buying a home, my wife and I are not content to just sit back and watch. Brok was able to come at us with a flexible, relaxed attitude, willing to answer all of our questions as they came up. Bork provided us with a great experience; we will be sure to recommend his services to others. 2016
My wife and I had a smooth and flawless experience working with Brok! We definitely plan on working with him in the future and have already recommended him to others! 2023
Brok assisted my husband and I in buying our first home, and we would highly recommend him especially for first time home buyers. He was super helpful in walking us through the entire process and guiding us when we made offers. His knowledge of not only the real estate market but Duluth itself was a great asset to have during this process. Along with being first time buyers we were also buying from out of state and using a VA loan. Brok navigated all of this with ease and we are so excited to move into our new home! 2023
I was a difficult case for any realtor, as I was moving from Colorado to Duluth and had several recent bad real estate transactions in CO. So, I was wary of purchasing anything anywhere, let alone in a distant location. The entire process took over a year and a half, but Brok stuck with me all the way with a degree of patience and professionalism I haven't encountered before. In the end, after a a few visits to the area I ended up with a great house in a nice neighborhood. Brok never pressured me into buying something I really didn't want, and I can't recommend him and his team more highly. 2023
Brok is an experienced and solid option here in the Duluth real estate market. He always was responsive to questions and gave balanced feedback. He can be great at helping first time homebuyers as well as others that may be buying their 2nd or 3rd home. 2022
Make it easy for yourself, work with Brok and his team. We worked with him to buy two pieces of property which were both low-pressure experiences. They were flexible with us looking for these properties from hundreds of miles away and did their absolute best to get use much information as possible before we looked at them in-person.
He has strong local connections that made it easy for someone unfamiliar with the area to work with the best local mortgage brokers, inspectors, and title companies. These types of connections are invaluable for someone moving here from out-of-state. If you're looking to move to the amazing Duluth area then this is the person you want on your side. 2023
We worked with Brok to sell our home in the fall of 2022--definitely not peak market. Brok brought in a team of experts to help us stage our house and get it sales-ready. We had multiple offers within a week of it going on the market, and working with Brok to negotiate the sale was a breeze. He always responded within a few minutes, and was up late some nights helping us respond to offers. We loved working with Brok, and highly recommend him! 2022
Brok and his team are great to work with. Brok is experienced, professional and responsive. Brok and his team helped us sell our house and we had a great experience. They did a nice job putting together the listing, took great photos, and Brok communicated effectively with us and potential buyers agents. 2022
The guy and his team were down to earth. I was a seller, and if there was something I didn't want to move forward with or questioned, he would give me the pros and cons. His service came with WAYYYY more extras than with previous experiences. For example, an interior decorator came to my house to give tips on how to "show" it. I had no clue stuffing everything in a closet was a no-no. So things like that were a plus. Sold in 4 days...at the height of the market at 3% rates which helps;) 2021
My husband and I recently worked with Brok and Josh at Zenith Realty Group, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Brok is knowledgable, professional, forthright, and friendly. Right now, the real estate market requires agents who are willing to work proactively to help buyers find a home, even when home inventory is scarce. Brok did just that. Even though my husband and I ultimately relocated to another area of the country, working with Brok and Josh in Duluth was an altogether positive experience. From start to finish, Brok advocated for us throughout our house search. He was exceedingly responsive and clear in his communication style; and even though I inundated him with dozens of questions on a fairly regular basis, he was always patient and eager to help. Brok went above and beyond for us by approaching potential sellers in desirable neighborhoods in order to find our family a suitable home priced within our budget. Between Brok and Josh, we were able to see many houses virtually, even though we were several states away from the Duluth area. Finding a house during these times is a challenge, but having Brok and his associates work as our buying agents made the process not just painless, but actually pleasant! It is for these reasons that we unequivocally recommend Brok Hansmeyer and Zenith Realty Group of Duluth. 2022
This is the second time I have used Brok as our real estate agent. He takes the stress out of selling and helps you make the decision that is best for you, and not best for his pocket. I was so impressed with his process and performance, I recommended him to a friend who also had a great experience selling his house.
If your are looking for a great agent, Brok Hansmeyer is the agent for you. 2021
Brok helped us buy our first rental property. He was helpful in advising us about what type of property would work well for rental and how to improve its earning potential. He also supplied us with helpful contact lists of recommended people for home inspection, maintenance and property management. We plan to use his services again in the future. 2022
This is our second time buying a home with Brok as our realtor and he has been really wonderful to work with. He is reliable, honest, and was always diligent in answering any questions we had. He goes above and beyond, highly recommend! 2021
Brok is awesome! We lived 700 miles from Duluth and were not able to see our home in person. It turned out to be everything we wanted and more. Brok and Josh facilitated our needs and offered many extras beyond the date of closing. We highly recommend Brok!!! 2021
Brok helped me sell my first home in the summer of 2021. I was blown away by the expertise and professionalism Brok and his team showed throughout the process. A great experience, highly recommend! 2021
Brok is knowledgeable, professional and caring. He explained each step in detail. When things didn't go as we would have liked, he let me know quickly and just as quickly outlined the available options along with the pluses and minuses. If I couldn't reach him immediately, he always got back to me quickly. He was always there when I needed him. I know he is a man of integrity, and I didn't hesitate to ask him to represent me. I would do the same if there were another time. 2021
We were so grateful to have Brok help us with the sale of our family home. He was readily available in responding to our needs and concerns, making sure that all went smoothly. Brok is professional and personable, generous and genuinely caring. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Brok has helped me buy and sell 3 homes now and will use him again next year. He does a great job marketing your home and finding new homes for you to purchase. He is professional and has great communication through out the transaction. I highly recomend his services!! 2021
We worked with Brok first to sell our home of 30 years, then again to purchase our new home. Brok and his colleagues were knowledgeable, supportive and made the process easy for us. They communicweld well, were patient with our questions and made sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend. 2021
Brok was professional, attentive and committed to selling our home. And when the offers came in, he guided us in the analysis and comparison of the offers, as well as the follow-up work to close the deal. In a world of automated phone calls and e-mails, it was great to receive near daily contact and updates from someone who was working to protect and promote our interests. Brok has the knowledge and experience to navigate the real estate market such that both seller and buyer are satisfied with the results. 2021
Brok worked with my wife and I to sell our home in Proctor. He was kind, responsive, and overall easy to work with through the entire process. He helped sell our home over a single weekend. We could not be more pleased. 2021
Brok did an amazing job marketing our property and successfully negotiating to closing. The drone video and customized website made our property stand out above the others. Will definitely use again. Thanks Brok! 2021
We started the sale of our home with Brok who was informative in selling property. Sadly Brok had his accident a week later-so we worked with Kevin. Kevin had a hard job in dealing with us. We were set to list the house and unexpectedly my husband passed away. I then pulled the house from the market. Kevin was very supportive in doing whatever I needed at the time. I then re-listed the home and after many ups and downs Kevin was always there for me. Kevin stepped up to the plate and went far beyond what was expected of an agent. Without all the help from Kevin I never would have sold my home. Thank you Kevin-you are a fantastic agent. 2019
This was a long-distance purchase and I was SO lucky to have chosen Brok as a buyer's agent. He is truly the best agent that I have ever worked with (and I have worked with many!) He is timely and extremely professional. I am looking forward to purchasing additional properties in the future with his help. Don't bother with any other real estate agent in Duluth, MN...just contact Brok and save yourself from any hassles! 2019
Brok helped my husband and I buy our first home. We appreciated his flexibility with our busy schedules, how quickly he responded to our questions, and his knowledge of the home buying and selling process. I also liked that hes a Dave Ramsey fan (I saw some things in his office) as I wanted to make a financial decision that would be comfortably affordable for us. I believe Brok also wants that for his clients. 2019
When we moved to Duluth, we were incredibly disappointed with the agent we used (it was not Brok). Any questions we asked we were told to call xyz. When we decided it was time to sell that house, I spent hours researching. Brok Hansmeyer appeared in nearly all of my searches. Having read almost every review on Brok, I decided to call him and schedule a meeting. Brok came to our house, listened to our needs and wants, knew we did not have any idea what we wanted to buy when we sold our house, and made the process simple. Anytime I asked a question, Brok would find the answer. Brok also went as far as contacting the city engineer to determine if a lot was buildable or if we should walk away. When we received offers on our house, Brok was great to work with. All around, one of the best realtors I have used. 2019
Excellent realtor. Brok is professional, efficient, reliable and honest. Highly highly recommend him! 2019
Nicholas and Bonnie Larsen, a seller from Cloquet, MN
We highly recommend Brok and his team for any of your reality needs! Brok has previously assisted us during a home buying experience. Working with Brok to sell our house was no different; it was fantastic. Thank you, Brok, for all of your help and direction during our home selling process! 2019
Brok goes above and beyond as our realtor! As out of state investors he makes the buying and selling of homes easy! I would highly recommend Brok as a realtor! 2019
Brok is the best of the best! He respectfully and warmly created a relationship with us before we were looking to sell our home and look for a new one, so when the time came we knew who we wanted to call! When we put our home on the market he was with us every step of the way, giving us feedback on what would make our home stand out and making sure we had a lot of foot traffic though the home from the moment it was put on the market. He also helped us find a wonderful new home and gave great insight as we navigated the market. He is super responsive to our (many!) requests and we felt comfortable asking for his professional advice and opinions whenever we had questions. He have told all our friends & family to go with Brok in the future! 2018
Brok is an awesome real estate agent! He helped us with offers, negotiating, with the inspection, and with the closing. He was always willing to answer our questions even when we had a million being first time homebuyers. We looked at so many houses and ended up putting in a few offers on multiple houses and he was patient with us every step of the way. Would definitely recommend him! 2018
Brok sold a rental property for us. Brok is best realtor I have ever work with. He returned my calls promptly. Got more for my property than I had expected. Brok knows his market and is professional. If you are looking for a realtor you can trust and depend on you cant go wrong with Brok!!!!
Brok is a low pressure, knowledgeable and accessible realtor who gets results for his clients. He has an expansive online presence and knows how to move real estate. Our house listed and 10 days later, we received a full price offer. 2018
Brok Hansmeyer is hands down the best real estate agent in the Twin Ports!
I'm the type of person who does an extensive amount of research before making a decision. When it came to finding the right agent to sell our home, choosing Brok could not have been easier. The amount of homes he helps people buy and sell is astonishing. He also has a large online presence. You can find his name, along with great reviews, anywhere you might shop for a home. He also creates video tours of the homes he sells, which really sets him apart from other agents in the area. I would gladly refer him to anyone I know looking to sell (or buy) a house in the Duluth area! 2018
Brok took on the challenge of me deciding a week in advance to put my house on the market, brought in his knowledge and resources to give me the game plan on what items to concentrate on, which items to stage properly, type of house we were going to sell it as, and 8 days later I had offers on my house that were beyond what I even thought I could get days before. His responsiveness and attention to detail helped streamline the process and his caring heart made sure the correct things were done. 2018
Brok is the best! I have worked with him a few times now. He always asks great questions to find out what you're really looking for, gives feedback honestly and directly, and is responsive and reliable. He never hesitates to go over my concerns or to find out more information on my behalf. Would highly recommend! 2018
Working with Mr. Brok Hansmeyer with the competitive home buying market was great! He is excellent with communication and working his hardest daily to work closer to a final sale. Very professional, genuine and easy to contact with questions. Brok recommended lots of homes that fit into our criteria and personal style as soon as they were listed. n nI also appreciate his team that assisted us with house showings and worked with a flexible schedule. Kevin Kalligher was knowledgeable and patient understanding viewing all possible options. He would confirm all showing appointments and help us discuss key points during our walk through. Very helpful, friendly and professional. n nBrok also recommended other business professionals that are needed during the home buying process! This was great and saved us time being a new community member. We could trust his recommendations and had a guideline already laid out to work effectively together. n nWe are happy with our purchase! 2018
Great communication. Timely responses. Quickly dealt with all forms, issues, and other needs. Brok did an all around excellent job moving everything through the closing process. 2017
With small kids in school and my wife already starting a job here in Duluth, Brok and his team were happy to tour homes with my wife only to show them over the weekend with me, essentially doing double the work. We got fast answers and honest help. I will definitely recommend them in the future! 2017
We highly recommend Brok Hansmeyer. He helped us sell our home and find a new home that had all of what we were looking for and also in a great school district. He is knowledgeable, patient, and professional at the negotiation process. Thank you and we look forward to using him again in the future for our dream cabin! 2017
I appreciate Brok's flexibility and awareness in a market that moves fast. Our situation changed concerning the value of the home we were selling as we took a few months to do some remodeling. The market grew in intensity and Brok helped us make decisions to get the most we could in the sale of our home. As for the purchase we made, his team was responsive to our needs as we were looking for a home quickly. I also appreciated Brok's desire to negotiate things. It was a great experience all around. 2017
Brok is a great educator, and his knowledge, communication skills, and honesty set him above the rest. He makes every step of the buying process clear and easy to understand. This was my third time working with Brok. As time has passed, the advice and opinions that he offered have proven to be spot on. Highly recommend! 2017
As first time home buyers Brok could not have made the process easier or more enjoyable. He was always readily available for questions and his knowledge of the area and reputation among his fellow realtors and everyone we came into contact with is without a doubt one of the reasons everything went so smoothly from start to finish. He was also an excellent resource when it came to looking for different contractors and companies to work on fixing up our new home and making sure we weren't getting in over our heads. I cannot recommend going with Brok enough. He was a pleasure to work with and his integrity and work ethic were evident throughout our entire experience. 2017
It was a great experience working with Brok. He is energetic and a real go-getter. Brok delivered with a quick sale and will be my first point of contact with any future real estate needs. 2017
Brok and his team were fantastic to work with on the purchase of our home in Lakeside. At the beginning of our search, Brok asked great questions and did a wonderful job of understanding what we were looking for in a home. We loved that Brok has a whole team of realtors - we were able to view homes on short notice, even when Brok was out of town. n nWhen we found the home we wanted, Brok did an excellent job of walked us through the buying process and crafting an offer... which ended up being crucial. There were 6 offers on the home, and with Brok's help, the seller chose ours. We love our new home and we are so grateful for Brok's work as our realtor. n nBrok is a real professional, and has our highest recommendation. 2017
We would recommend Brok to anyone of our friends, family or a stranger on the street! We don't live in the area any longer and he made selling our house a breeze. He was on top of each part of the process and responded quickly to each of our requests. The process couldn't have been any easier! After two days on the market, our house sold for full asking price. Brok was available through the sale and closing to answer any questions we had regarding our responsibility. And he is also personable! We couldn't be happier! 2017
Brok was great in finding us a new home in the time period we needed in a new area of the state for us. . He was professional in handling a tricky situation with one of the homes we visited. He ensured all the items in our home we had requested be looked at were completed and all our questions were answered. 2017
Brok is the best realtor I have ever worked with . He communicates often, knows the Duluth market , and smoothed the few snags we encountered in our purchase process. 2017
Brok helped me buy and sell my house. When I bought in 2009, I didn't look for a realtor, I just happened to find Brok with a house I looked at. He kept in touch over the 8 years that I owned my house and I chose to stick with him when I decided to sell. Brok is extremely responsive whether is it by email, phone call, or text. If he doesn't know an answer, he will find it. During the process of selling, it was back and forth, with a lot of hiccups along the way. Brok was on top of it and kept my best interest in mind throughout. 2017
Brok was wonderful to work with. He was attentive and patient. He answered all the questions we had and responded quickly. He was honest about what we should do before listing. With his help we sold our home in 9 days. Remax1 is for sure the team to go with when needing to sell or buy a home. An all star team. 2017
Working with Brok was a wonderful experience in finding a home that met our needs. He is honest, charismatic, and incredibly helpful. Coming from out of state to purchase a home, he gave great insight about Duluth and comparable listings. He was informative and followed through on his commitments to make our process as smooth as possible. Brok is a great guy who cares about the people that he represents and wants to make purchasing a home a good one. We really appreciate Brok and all of his hard work and dedication. Thank you! 2016
Brok was great to work with in buying our Duluth home. We just moved back to our hometown and found that we loved Lakeside as a place to raise our kids. Because our focus was small, it took a few months and lots of patience on Brok's part to help us find our forever home. He was always quick to respond and get us in to see a house....a must because homes are going so quickly in this market!! Brok was always willing to answer any question and followed up with us to make sure understood it all. We felt blessed to have him as our realtor in finding the house we are going to finish raising our children in. We would definitely recommend him. 2016
We had a great experience with Brok while buying a home in Duluth. As first-time homebuyers looking for a house in a city we'd never lived in, we wanted someone who wouldn't mind a lot of (what felt like) dumb questions, and Brok was great for that. We were able to ask him the most straightforward, embarrassing (to us) questions, and he always made us feel like we were actually being smart consumers with his answers. It was really nice to have someone who isn't afraid to give advice when you're asking them for it. Without his help, we would have been blindly fumbling through this process. Brok really knows the area, he really knows houses, and while he never tries to sway your opinion, he isn't afraid of giving you his an honest assessment when you want it. We're so happy we found the house we bought, and we would absolutely not have gotten it without the benefit of Brok's negotiating skills. Thanks, Brok! 2016
Working with Brok made the entire process nearly painless. He was a great listener, he was honest and realistic while always working hard for my best interest. In short, he was amazing! 2016
Brok was wonderful to work with! He was knowledgable, quickly responded to any questions, and did a fantastic job marketing the property. We are happy sellers, thanks Brok! 2016
Second time buyer with Brok. Managed unexpected delays and scheduling conflicts with a perfect combination of tact and urgency. Goes above and beyond in my opinion. 100% recommend. Hope to work together again! 2016
Working with Brok Hansmeyer is a joy, He makes the process easy, less scary, and walks you through each step to make it go smooth. I feel that I am always be treated honestly and with my goals in mind. I openly endorse Brok Hansmeyer to my friends. I would 100% work with Brok again 2016
Brok came highly recommended and he didn't disappoint. He lived up to all our expectations and was a pleasure to work with. He knows the Duluth and surrounding area markets and will guide you through every step of the transaction. Whether you are a first time home buyer, a experienced real estate investor, or selling a home, Brok and his team have the resources and knowledge to get you closed. 2016
Brok was outstanding. Worked hard as an advocate and resource for our family. I appreciated his knowledge as well as his ability to remain calm in the midst of our emotions in the home buying process. He's simply a great man and agent. Highly recommend. 2016
Brok has kept this entire process professional and comfortable. He kept on top of everything on the agenda every step of the way. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell in Duluth! 2016
Brok went above and beyond to help us sell our house!! He put a lot of time, energy and effort into listing our home and making sure it sold fast for top dollar--which it did! Also, being a family man himself, kept in consideration our families needs while selling. So glad we chose him as our realtor! 2016
Working with Brok was a pleasure. Went into meeting with Brok with the mindset that it could take many months and I wasn't necessarily ready to purchase yet. Brok understood where I was coming from and respected the timeline. After a few houses, I found a great house, in the location I wanted, and the space I needed. Brok walked me through the entire process and I was updated almost daily of the process. Any barrier that arose, if Brok could take care of it, if he needed my input, he was always prompt with the concern, question, or recommendation. It was a fun experience for my first home purchase. 2016
Brok was recommended to us through a family member who is a real estate agent in another part of Minnesota. From the first meeting we had good feelings about working with him. We had recently moved from abroad, and around the US. Having moved around himself, he had the experience that matched what we needed. We had a tight timeline to look at homes and Brok was helpful in setting up showings in short amounts of time and accommodating different schedules my husband and I had. We put in an offer for our home right before we were scheduled to travel abroad for 3 weeks. The rest of our communication was through email and he responded so quickly and was informative and helpful. He worked with our friends to do the inspection since we could not preform it ourselves. He worked closely with our mortgage company to make sure we had all the details we needed to make an informed decision, regarding our offers and counter offers. Once back in the country he got in touch to make the final arrangements for closing. He communicated well with the sellers and the other listing agent to make sure the process went as smoothly as possible, which it did ! I would recommend Brok to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. 2016
The word that best describes Brok is trustworthy! My wife and I were buying our first home and Brok made the experience wonderful. He is conscientious and hard working. He listened to our needs and was thorough in finding us the right home. He went above and beyond with late night showings and in helping us view many homes without putting any pressure on us. He is from Duluth and really knows the market well. We had a great experience and will definitely use Brok in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone and I am sure they will have a great experience with him. 2016
From the first of the many phone calls with Brok he listened to my concerns of buying a house in Duluth from California! He met with my son several times showing him houses and sending me video so I could see it also. Brok was helpful in explaining each step either by phone, text or email and always left me feeling at ease. We close this week on a wonderful new home thanks to Brok! Would highly recommend him! I know my son will be using him! 2016
My husband and I worked with Brok as buyers when looking for land in the Carlton County area. We didn't live in the area so his knowledge of the area, market, and process was extremely helpful. Brok is a great communicator and is quick to reply when working through the process. Very helpful to get us the information we needed and made closing a smooth process. When working with Brok it was easy to tell he really cares about his clients! 2016
Working with Brok was awesome! He was always willing to set up showings when it fit my schedule, he regularly communicated with me about the house-buying process and he always answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend working with Brok to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He did an amazing job! 2016
Brok Hansmeyer provided exceptional service throughout our entire buying experience. As first time home buyers, we had many questions and Brok answered each question knowledgeably and patiently. As we proceeded through the process, Brok effectively and quickly managed all the logistics. And at the end of the day, Brok is a super friendly and trustworthy person. 2016
Brok Hansmeyer was helpful in the selling of our property. He was on top of the whole process and didn't let anything slip through the cracks. He kept us informed of what was happening with our property every step of the way and helped us with all our questions. We would work with him again in the future. 2015
First time home-buyer and new to the area. Brok was a true professional. He answered my novice questions with honesty and patience, and volunteered great insight and practical advice at every step. Very knowledgeable and a prompt communicator. Would highly recommend! 2015
