    Excellent service
  • Seller review
    Jim was great in understanding my needs for the property. Helped me understand a few years ago when it was not time to sell and then change course to rent the property and hire solid property management. This year, when it was time to sell, he again performed well and timely.

    Jim Ruttger was wonderful to work with. He's very knowledgeable and has many contacts in the Brainerd area, which was extremely helpful. Jim shared many contacts with me, which I utilized in the sale of my mother's home. Jim Ruttger was great to work with, thank you for everything and the quick sale of my mother's home.

    Jim is a honest professional that i would recommend to friends and family. He made selling our property a good experience.
  • Buyer review
    We chose Jim because we had dealt with him in the past on 2 different real estate deals. He was very patient and knowledgable and showed us many properties while taking time away from family over numerous weekends. He never rushed us or made us feel pressured to make a decision that didn't fit our needs. In the end, we are very happy with our decision to use Jim and with the lake home we purchased. Jim is outstanding. Of all the personal characteristics we value, I would say honesty and trustworthiness are the highest and Jim excels in each of these.
