As a Rochester native who grew up in the real estate business, Lori Mickelson has been in the top 1% of her profession since the very beginning. Lori was the Number 1 RE/MAX agent in Minnesota in 1996, 1997, 1998, 2012, and 2013. She has distinguished herself as one of the top 3 Rochester agents for over 10 years! Lori began her full-time real estate career in 1990 and now has over 30 year of experience in the Rochester market and surrounding areas of Oronoco, Pine Island, Byron, and Kasson Mantorville.
In addition to her years of experience in real estate, Lori employs an enthusiastic support staff and wealth of knowledge on the community itself. She attended John Marshall High School and later attended the local community college before moving on to the University of Minnesota. She returned to Rochester to follow in her father's footsteps, who was also a top real estate agent in the city. Her children attended both Rochester public and private schools which gave Lori first-hand knowledge of Rochester's educational system and family-friendly community. Her sterling reputation has allowed her to build a network of contractors from handymen, plumbers, movers, and painters, all of whom give Lori's clients first priority.
Excellence, commitment, integrity, communication, and initiative are the foundations of customer service for Lori and Rochester Properties. "My favorite part about my job is that I get to connect with people every day. One day I might be talking on the phone with an out-of-town buyer from New York and the next day I'm picking them up from the airport and giving them a guided tour of our city. It's not just selling a home, it's matching people and their personalities to their dream lifestyle that I love. It's picking out the perfect paint colors for one of my sellers, or lining up roofing bids for a buyer. There's a lot to it and I'm always asking myself how I can make it easier for my clients."
It is this personalized attention that has kept Lori in the top 1% of her profession since her start over years ago. The majority of Lori's clients seek her out directly due to referrals from their family and friends who have worked with her and her team of assistants in the past. Many clients have designated Lori and Rochester Properties their "personal" real estate team, such as Malia Howe, who relocated to Rochester years ago. "We met Lori in 2006 when we were preparing to move to Rochester. Since that time, we have purchased two homes and sold one of them with her assistance. I cannot imagine using another real estate agent."
