“When we started thinking about buying a house, a friend of ours who had recently sold their house recommended their realtor Alex Mayer. Having worked with Alex for 6 months now, he stands above the rest as a realtor. As first time homebuyers, we really appreciated how Alex met us where we were at. After we reached out, Alex met us quickly and explained everything from what to look for in a house to how to put together a winning offer. His focus on education was invaluable, and with each house we viewed, we learned more and more about what we needed our house to be. Alex’s patience and communication helped our confidence throughout the process, too. Alex was a great resource for connecting us to lenders, insurance agents, and other people who could help us make buying our first home happen. We looked at a LOT of houses together. But when we found the one that checked all the boxes, Alex did everything in his power to give us the best chance and made sure we were informed and comfortable at every move. It was a privilege working with such an exceptional realtor!”

Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Faribault County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Faribault County’s housing trends over the past year show modest price growth alongside rising activity. The typical home value is up about 6 percent year over year, while the median list price has climbed roughly 13 percent. Buyers are also seeing more choices, with active listings increasing nearly 29 percent compared with a year ago.
In the latest September snapshot, sellers asked a median of about $197,000, and the average sale-to-list ratio stood near 95 percent, indicating some room for negotiation. Homes spent a median of 39 days on the market, only slightly higher than last year but down from the prior month, suggesting that well-priced properties can still move at a steady pace.
Sales dynamics point to strengthening demand, with homes sold up about 17 percent year over year and pending sales surging more than 70 percent. Months of supply sits at 2.9, keeping Faribault County in a seller’s market, yet buyers benefit from significantly more inventory than last year and a lower price point than the Minnesota median sale price of around $353,000. With roughly 18 percent of homes selling above list and more than a quarter going off-market within two weeks, conditions can feel fast-moving for both sides of a transaction. Buyers and sellers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an agent who understands these local shifts and can guide their next move.

Faribault County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with strong schools, reliable local services, a thriving mix of small businesses, and abundant outdoor recreation that together support a high quality of life.
Faribault County offers a quieter, more grounded lifestyle than larger regional hubs like Mankato or Blue Earth, while still keeping everyday conveniences close at hand. The county’s landscape blends productive farmland, tree lined rivers, and small towns that know their neighbors, creating a strong sense of local identity that appeals to long time residents and newcomers alike.
Blue Earth serves as the county seat, with community anchors like the Faribault County Courthouse and the welcoming Blue Earth Community Library. Nearby Winnebago and Elmore offer classic main streets, local cafes, and easy access to outdoor recreation. Anglers and paddlers appreciate time on area waters, including the Blue Earth River and local lakes, while families enjoy parks such as Putnam Park in Blue Earth.
Local schools, including Blue Earth Area Schools, help anchor community activities, and seasonal events and sports fill the calendar. Residents value the ability to drive to bigger job centers, yet return home to low traffic, open skies, and housing options that are often more affordable than those in nearby urban areas.

“Amanda was very straightforward and personal with myself and Macy, she guided us towards the right home for us in Olivia MN and was quick to point out outstanding flaws or issues in other properties we visited. Her general knowledge and sociable personality made her a joy to work with!”
“She's the absolute best. If you need someone who will go above and beyond what you need then you definitely need her. She does not stop until you are 100% satisfied with everything.”

“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.”
“Heather was excellent with great communication. She has excellent knowledge of the Albert Lea market and she was able to help us get the most for our home. She was also very helpful in negotiating an acceptable outcome for the home inspection items. I would highly recommend her for selling/buying property.”
“Awesome, I was picky with a few things and drew did great working with what I was looking for, glad to of came across him. If I’m ever in the market to buy or sell I’ll be reaching out to Drew again and I highly recommend him to friends and family”
“Anthony was absolutely amazing to work with!! He was flexible and always willing to show us houses when it worked best for us! He went above and beyond to make sure we found the perfect house for our family! I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better realtor!! Anthony, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for everything you did!”
“The experience of working with Kim as my realtor was truly exceptional. Over the course of four years, she consistently supported me, demonstrating patience and flexibility despite my demanding nature. Kim was always available to communicate, providing her expertise and guidance at any hour. Her wealth of knowledge in real estate was evident throughout the home buying process, and she skillfully negotiated on my behalf to secure the best possible outcomes. In addition to her professional prowess, Kim's vibrant personality and impeccable sense of style made the experience enjoyable and enriching. I wholeheartedly recommend Kim to anyone in need of real estate services and eagerly anticipate working with her again in the future.”
“We were out of state (AZ) when we started our house hunting in MN. David was our eye and ears for many virtual showings. He was open, honest, and very responsive throughout the whole process which put us at ease. We could not have picked a better realtor for our move back to MN!”
“Katy is a really good realtor you should go with her. She was really helpful. If I ever decide to buy another place I will go with her. She helped me buy a house in less than a month.”
“We recently worked with Zack on the purchase of our lake home in Lindstrom. He was great to work with and very knowledgeable of the market and the process. And he was quick to respond to all of our questions day or night. We would highly recommend working with Zack on your real estate needs.”
“Chad Luscomb was very polite, helpful, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone looking to sell a home!”

“Zoe went over and beyond to get us our dream home. Great communication, knowledge of the area and negotiation skills! Would highly recommend her as your realtor!!”
“WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE THROUGHOUT! Would definitely recommend Mary. We wanted someone who was dedicated to our best interest and that’s exactly what we got with Mary! Never felt pressured to buy and she was always willing to do what made us most comfortable. Truly in our corner from beginning to end.”
“Greg helped me purchase my first home in Belle Plaine. His knowledge of the homes and builders in the area was a great asset to help find the right place for me. When it was time for me to Move out of Belle Plaine, I again called on Greg for the job. The process was simple with Greg. His knowledge of Belle Plaine help get a full price sale, which I was very happy with. Greg is such a great agent that he even went above and beyond to shovel my driveway when I was out of town prior to an open house. If you are buying or selling a home Greg Schmidt is the right guy.”
