Erich Young - Testimonials

Erich’s knowledge and guidance made it easy for us as first-time home buyers to make a smart decision and buy a house we’re happy with.

If you want to work with a realtor who is practical, pragmatic, insightful and professional, look no further!

Erich is a no-nonsense realtor, and he has a keen sense of market trends which lead to the successful sale of his listings. Erich works diligently to ensure your house sells for as much as it can. You can count on Erich to provide professional advice and support throughout the listing and sale of your home.

He protected us from overspending on the house we eventually closed on. He's the nicest person to work with who can be a bulldog in your corner. Even months after the close, he has checked in with us frequently and even mailed us coupons for local establishments. He's a real professional and exactly everything we were hoping for. Thanks so much for your high level of customer service and honest advice!

He was always available for questions or setting up a showing quickly. He made the whole process very smooth and shared a lot of knowledge with me along the way. All and all, I got a house that I will love for many years through working with Erich.

He has helped me find the perfect house for my family in a seller's market without rushing me. He has on several occasions stopped me from settling for a house that did not meet all my requirements. He is also good at telling you what is right and wrong about a certain house. He is very familiar with the twin cities and a pleasant person to deal with. He made the process of buying my first home very seamless. Don't hesitate to contact Erich to find your dream home.

Erich worked with us to get 2 houses sold and help us with purchasing the house of our dreams. What's great about working with Erich is that he is part life coach, part cheerleader and plays whatever role he needs to for helping you get what you want but be grounded in reality at the same time. He used his network and insights into the real estate market to ensure that we got what we really wanted out of the experience. If I ever have to change homes again I'll definitely be calling Erich.

We have used Erich to buy our first home and then again several years later to buy our next home and sell the first home. Erich is very patient, calm, and trustworthy. You will never feel pressure to buy a home that is not right. He knows the market very well and will make sure you get the right price for your home. He is also very responsive and willing to help in any way to make sure it all goes smoothly. He even went above and beyond in helping cleaning out some last minutes items at our home before it closed. You will find the right home with Erich!

I was a first-time home buyer from out-of-state. Erich's provided a well-informed, honest, no-pressure guidance on every home and neighborhood we visited. Highly recommended!

His knowledge of the local market allowed us to price our home competitively and it sold on the first day. He made a daunting task seem simple as well as being personable and fun to work with. Highly recommended

To preface we were first time home buyers looking in an extremely busy and fast turning neighborhood. We started searching for our home in September of 2023 and finally closed on our first home after almost 11 months later- and Erich was so patient and with us every step of the way! He was extremely familiar with the area, which was helpful, but even more so was his knowledge of houses. He’s been doing this for many years, and it shows. Walking through older houses can be daunting, especially when considering the seller may ask you to wave inspection with the way the market is right now. Erich was able to point things out that we never would have known about and educated us so much about the history of housing materials (what’s dangerous, what’s good, etc.). He was able to point out if a floor was sloped, windows would need replacing, efficient furnaces, you name it we learned about it and knew what to look for anytime we went to an open house. We never felt pressured by Erich to buy a house we didn’t love, and he was always in agreement with us about putting an offer in or not. He was very communicative and quick to respond, always got our offers in on time even if it was down to the wire, and followed up with us regularly to see how things were going. There was almost never a time that Erich declined to show us a house due to scheduling conflicts, he was always available for us. Overall, we couldn’t recommend Erich enough, especially as a first-time home buyer. We are so grateful that Zillow connected us with him and will definitely be using him in the future and recommending to all of our friends 😊

We were on a very short time frame and Erich was very communicative, flexible and helpful to make the entire process go smoothly. He is very knowledgeable about the area, the market and never pressured us into any decisions.

He helped us sell our duplex in NE Minneapolis ten years ago, and more recently helped us buy a cabin, sell another home in NE, and buy a new house in White Bear Township, all within the course of a couple of months this summer. We were very pleased with his handling of the sale of our NE home. He gave wonderful guidance on preparing the house for market, the advertising was excellent, and we were able to find the perfect buyers within a short period of time. He’s responsive, knowledgeable, and has a lot of personality! He has integrity, and puts what’s best for his clients ahead his pocketbook. If he doesn’t think a property is right for you, he will be frank. He thankfully talked us OUT of buying a house for various reasons, that we are now so grateful for because the next one we viewed became our Forever (Dream) Home. If you want an honest broker who will work hard for you on whatever side of the sale you’re on, call Erich Young!

We started our downsizing process 2 years ago after an initial meeting with Erich. He provided periodic listings of condos in areas of interest to us during that time. After we purchased a senior co-op condo last fall, we contracted with Erich to guide us in the prepping for sale. He had a few specific recommendations of things we ought to do to our home of 52 years to do well in the current market but no pressure. The house was listed at the start of the pandemic lock down and sold in 3 days on very favorable terms and price! We were very satisfied with the service and results provided by Erich and highly recommend him to others.
