A crisp, exterior curb-appeal shot of a classic Minneapolis–St. Paul craftsman-style home, freshly updated and ready for listing. The house features warm cedar shakes, white trim, and a deep navy front door with elegant brushed-nickel hardware. Manicured landscaping frames the entry, with neatly edged green lawn, blooming perennials, and a stone walkway leading up to a covered porch. Golden hour sunlight bathes the façade in a soft, flattering glow, creating subtle highlights on the siding and gentle shadows under the eaves. The sky is clear with a faint gradient from blue to amber near the horizon. Photographed from a slightly elevated angle with photographic realism, the composition follows the rule of thirds, emphasizing both the home and the welcoming front approach, conveying professionalism, value, and neighborhood charm.

Selling

A professional real estate workspace scene featuring a neatly arranged, modern home office corner that suggests attentive client service without showing people. A slim, silver laptop rests on a light oak desk, its screen displaying a subtle, blurred floor plan. Beside it, an organized stack of navy-blue real estate folders, a polished metal pen, and a small architectural model of a Twin Cities-style house create a sense of expertise. A large window to the left lets in soft, overcast daylight, casting even, shadow-free illumination on the matte desktop surface. In the background, out-of-focus white shelves hold neatly aligned property binders and a few tasteful plants. Photographed at eye level with a shallow depth of field, the mood is calm, professional, and trustworthy, with clean photographic realism ideal for a real estate advisor brand.

From pricing strategy to staging advice, I prepare your Minneapolis–St. Paul home to attract qualified, motivated buyers.

A bright, contemporary open-concept kitchen and dining space in a suburban Twin Cities home, styled for a premium listing. The kitchen showcases white shaker cabinets with understated black pulls, a large quartz island with soft gray veining, and stainless-steel appliances with a brushed finish. Three simple glass pendant lights hang above the island, casting warm, focused illumination that complements the diffused daylight streaming through a nearby patio door. The adjacent dining area features a natural wood table set with minimalist ceramic dishware and a single vase of greenery. Shot from a slightly elevated corner with a wide-angle lens, everything is in sharp focus, emphasizing spaciousness and flow. The atmosphere is clean, modern, and move-in ready, rendered in high-end photographic realism to highlight exceptional value and thoughtful design.

Commissions

Standard Listing

When you list your home with RealLizState, you’ll see your numbers clearly from day one. Our listing agreement spells out the total commission, how it’s shared between the buyer’s and seller’s brokerages, and exactly which services are included—professional photography, staging guidance, marketing, negotiation, and contract management. We also outline any optional costs upfront, such as pre-listing inspections or enhanced staging, so there are no surprise expenses at closing. Before your home hits the Minneapolis–St. Paul market, we prepare an estimated net sheet that projects your likely closing costs—loan payoffs, taxes, title fees, and commissions—so you understand how our work translates into your final bottom line.

Premium Listing

Our goal is for every seller to know, in plain language, what they’re paying and what they’re keeping. Commission is typically a percentage of the final sales price and is only paid when your home successfully closes; if you don’t close, you don’t owe a commission. From that gross sale price, we subtract expected expenses—commissions, closing fees, prorated taxes, and your remaining mortgage balance—to estimate your net proceeds. We walk through these numbers with you line by line, adjusting for different price and offer scenarios common in the Twin Cities market, so you can confidently choose the strategy that maximizes both your sale price and your net profit.
