"From day one we knew that choosing Holly was an awesome choice. We encountered many issues including flood insurance, radon, price negotiations etc purchasing our new home. Holly handled all of these like the pro she is! She had our interests as priority number one even when we didn't. She is very personable, but I was very glad she was on our side of the negotiating table. She was always timely and available to take our questions via phone or email. I have recommended her to my personal friends and family." - Bennett

"Holly listened to the needs and desires my wife and I had. She was very responsive at all times as well as resourceful in her ideas while blending the technology available to her as well as her phenomenal personal skills. Our lake home sold quickly for over the asking price and we had our check sooner than we ever could have dreamed!" - Denny

"She is very thorough and she always kept me informed with everything that was going on with the process. She always was pleasant and didn't over react over things. I would recommend her to anyone for buying and selling a house!" - Sharon

"Holly is fantastic! She was very patient with us when we went out for our 1st time looking at houses, we saw around 18 homes that day. She is very knowledgeable and very detailed. When it came time for negotiations she was very honest with us and explained how everything was going to work as we had not purchased a home before. She made us very comfortable with the process of purchasing a home and the decisions that we were making. I would highly recommend Holly Connaker when selling or buying a new home!!" - Kari

"This review is so long overdue... Holly helped me and my husband sell three homes in two years and buy one home. Two of the homes were our primary residence (Brooklyn Park & Plymouth) and one a rental condo (St. Paul). Holly is nothing short of fantastic! With the first sale, she helped us navigate challenging buyers (and in all honesty, I'm not exactly an easy-going seller!) and managed to negotiate to buy our dream home; a relocation property with strict rules against going into contract with an existing home sale contingency. We didn't even have our home on the market to sell! But Holly got us our house! And helped us every step of the way as we coordinated to both sell and buy homes on the same day. (So stressful!)
Fast forward 14 months, when our dream home ended up not being in the same city/state as my husbands dream job, we called Holly immediately. That house went into contract within a day... on January 4th! Finally, when it finally came time to give up the rental we owned, it was a no brainer to call Holly. Again, she didn't disappoint. It sold in a week for asking.
Holly's professionalism, ability to negotiate and manage challenging situations (and personalities), as well as, industry expertise makes her an exceptional agent for both buying and selling a home. I look forward to the day when we relocate back to MN and I can call Holly to help us buy our next dream home!
