“I hired Bryce Schuenke to help build a new home and sell my condo in Hudson, WI, and my villa home in Lakeville, MN. Bryce explained each step in building a new home. He reviewed the purchase agreement and suggested language changes to protect me. He frequently checked construction progress and helped negotiate solutions to problems. Bryce sold my Hudson condo, working with condo management to meet new (August 2026) lending requirements for HOAs. He continued working with management when the buyers were close to canceling the agreement, and I was able to sell the condo. Bryce sold my villa in Lakeville by finding the right buyer. He helped me negotiate a higher purchase price. The closing timelines were quick, but all parties worked to make it happen. I would recommend Bryce to anyone buying or selling a home in Minnesota or Wisconsin.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Albany has loosened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up more than 30 percent from a year ago. New listings have surged even faster, jumping nearly 120 percent year over year. Even with more options, homes are still moving at a solid pace, with six sales and eight pending deals recently recorded.
Contract activity has picked up compared with last year, as homes sold are up more than 50 percent and pending sales are higher by about a third. Buyers are acting quickly, with the median days on market dropping to 10 days, down roughly 25 percent from a year earlier.
Prices are reacting to this shifting balance. The typical home value over the last three months is down about 11 percent year over year, and the median list price has fallen more than 25 percent from the same period last year. Even with that softness, half of recent sales still closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 96 percent, showing sellers are often close to their asking numbers. With months of supply around 4.3 and the area labeled a seller’s market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these trends.

“I can’t say enough great things about Michael! From start to finish, he truly went above and beyond to make the entire process of selling my home as smooth and stress-free as possible. Michael was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to take the extra time to answer my questions and talk through anything that came up. I never felt like I was just another client — he genuinely cared about making sure I felt comfortable and confident throughout the process. Selling a home and making a big move can be stressful, but having Michael in my corner made such a difference. He was professional, patient, honest, and proactive every step of the way. I’m extremely grateful for everything he did and couldn’t recommend him more highly. If you’re looking for a realtor who will truly go above and beyond for you, Michael is your guy!”
“Brandon and team have been incredible! We have bought two homes and sold one with Brandon, and I could not have imagined a better experience. The sale of our home exceeded our expectations thanks to him. He is incredibly knowledgeable, especially with new construction and smart home tech. If/when we decide to move or buy another property, we will be using Brandon as our agent again! I cannot recommend this team enough.”
“We had such a great experience working with Dustin! He was always willing to answer our questions, even at odd hours, and was so patient with us throughout the whole process. He never made us feel pressured or like we were just another sale. Dustin genuinely cared about helping us find the right home, and we really appreciated how much he did for us. We would definitely recommend him!”
“Roger was great to work with. He gave no pressure to buy and was very knowledgeable on items we did not understand. We would recently his services to everyone.”
“Jenny did a fantastic job assisting us in buying our first home! She was efficient, responsive, knowledgeable, and very respectful of our needs and wants. We loved that we never felt pressured into anything. Jenny is a great realtor, and made a large difference in our experience!”
“What a Great Experience working with Aaron, Kristi, and their team was. I met them while at a MAYC (senior center in Blaine) seminar they were co-hosting regarding the ins and outs of "as is," "investor," or "traditional real estate agent" selling of your home. I was interested in "as is" but had concerns of certain aspects of this. I learned a lot at the seminar so set up a meeting to discuss my long range desire to sell my home. I had recently put my name on a wait list at a senior community and was given an expectation of 1 1/2 to 4 years wait. Long story short, an opening at the senior community I was looking at came up after only 2 months, so I had to decide quickly on what I wanted to do. I decided to go ahead with this and let Aaron and Kristi know that my plans had changed and I would need to get started right away on selling rather than having years to plan. They were able to explain my options to me in plain english, and even though I was biased towards "as is" selling to hurry things along, they made it clear to me that traditional listing would be a better choice for my situation and they could make it work out for me, with a better price and in my best interest. I already liked talking with them and decided to put my trust in them as well and let them handle the sale aspect of the house and I would concentrate on decluttering and moving my stuff out asap (I wanted to concentrate on my move to a new home in the senior community I had selected). Their experience really showed. They ran a few things by me for my ok, (and their recommendations were right on target) but they took care of all the planning and all the many details. Trusting them to know how to do this right really took the stress out of this for me, it had all happened so fast once the opportunity opened up on the wait list. They have a great team and the leadership of their team and their connection and ability to communicate with others was apparent (the city government, the community, vendors, and other sales agents). This all made the process and follow up seem seamless. From start to finish I felt included and engaged in the process even though they were the clear leaders in getting this job done. What a great experience it turned out to be, they are so good to work with, I highly recommend them and would do so again if the opportunity arises.”
“Lisa is absolutely amazing!! My husband and I knew from our first sit down with her that we wanted to work with her. We are first time home buyers and she made sure to walk through every step with us! She took the time to really connect with us not only on a professional level but also a personal level. Working with her felt like we were working with someone who we had known our whole lives. We will 1000% recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“I really enjoyed working with Stella. She is knowledgeable and very easy to work with. She helped me narrow down what I really wanted in a new home. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Selling this house was particularly stressful with a few pitfalls. Marissa helped us navigate through them and stayed on top of the details. She always had our best interest in mind. We appreciate her persistence and will recommend her to our friends.”
“I purchased my first home with the help of Heather Warner. From a quick google search of realators specializing in first time homebuyers I found the Barker Hedges team which led me to Heather. Leaning heavily on her experience I had unwavering faith in her to provide valuable consultation in all aspects of the house buying process. Strongly reccomend Heather to any homebuyers. She simplified the process for me tremedously and will was extremely honest in the house touring process. She will be a strong voice for you communicating at a very high level.”
“Noah provided excellent pictures/media/decsriptions. He was very strategic in marketing my house and I was able to receive more than my asking price. Noah was very responsive and reassuring throughout the whole process. Highly, Highly Recommended!”
“Lauren was exceptional to work with. She was so sharp with her market knowledge, priced our home incredibly perfect so that we had multiple offers within 24 hours, and she was easy to get ahold of. Any questions that we had for her, she responded within minutes, despite even being at a her kids sporting event or between showings. She was recommended to us by a family member, and we'll be sure to pass the recommendations on to anyone we know who are needing real estate advice/assistance. If and when we sell or buy in the future, she will be the only person we contact. We appreciate you, Lauren! Thank you for all of your hard work for us!”
“Shari was wonderful to work with. We have known each other for years but never worked together in this capacity. It is very obvious how much she loves her job! She was knowledgable and took my needs into consideation throughout the whole process. It was wonderful to work with her!”
“Patti did an amazing job helping me purchase my house during the pandemic. She was always keeping me in the loop and making sure everything was done.”
“Joanne guided me in both buying and selling homes. She is patient, honest, knowledgeable, helpful, humble, kind, available and thorough! Joanne was a joy to work with, and I would choose to work with her again in a heartbeat! I have no hesitation in recommending Joanne (the Rockin' Realtor) for your real estate needs!”
“Kristine was amazing! She is such a hard worker. Kristine was very responsive. She goes above and beyond and always looked out for our best interests. Kristine knew we were on a tight schedule, so she worked every evening and even on Sunday to find the perfect home for us. If you are in the market for a realtor, I would definitely recommend Kristine Jones.”
“Andrea was amazing in helping us purchase my wife's grandfather's home. She was extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire process and got sh*t done - all while making us feel comfortable. She was everything that we needed and made our first homebuying experience amazing!”
“Not just a realtor...Jim Snaza and the SNAZA GROUP are experts in the housing industry, resource connectors, and all-around amazing people! My husband and I began our home search and sale with Jim over 18 months ago and he was so patient through the entire process. With each step, Jim provided the best advice and guidance to make sure we would be happy with our new home choice and get the value we wanted from our home sale. He's also highly connected! Before we listed our home, it needed a few things updated and Jim offered us a network of trusted, responsive contractors for a variety of projects. We've sold and purchased previous homes in other states, but never had the white-glove experience Jim and his team provided! Not only has Jim helped us, but we have referred him to multiple people who have had the same 5-star service. Jim is not just a realtor, he truly cares about his clients and we highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“Great job. Skip was great to work with.”
