Adam was amazing during the whole process of buying our first home. Every step along the way, he was available for answering question, and was prompt with responding any time we needed something.

Adam did an amazing job. From lining up staging help and professional pictures to working through all the little details to make sure we could sell our house for the top dollar and right away. It paid off by us selling the house for $15,000 over asking price and within one day of the listing.

I greatly appreciated the service and support Adam offered me and my parents in selling their condo. He was extremely responsive to my initial inquiries and made a site visit within the following day to evaluate the property.
Adam made listing this property remotely possible for us. My lack of proximity was difficult. In the final hours, Adam was able to pull of assisting me with some general housekeeping staging for pending showings and an open house.
Adam's attention to detail ensured the sale went smoothly. This cannot be emphasized enough. His ensuring every detail was accurate even helped to avert a situation related to a rental water conditioning unit post sale when the company came to collect the device.
I would recommend Adam for any real estate listing you have. He was a pleasure to work with. My parents and I appreciate him!

Adam is a kind and patient person with extensive experience as a realtor. From the beginning of our journey, Adam was thorough in taking us through the steps to put our house on the market. His team of professionals were also great to work with. Adam's advice on timing and pricing were spot on, our house sold above asking the first day it was on the market. When there were issues like needing a new roof, Adam directed us to the perfect person to get the job done quickly. We felt confident in trusting our home to Adam, and highly recommend him for your reality needs!

I worked with Adam as a trustee to close a house sale for my brother that passed away just before closing. Adam was there to assist me with quickly assessing the situation as it pertained to my brothers trust and provided coordination with the Title company and the buyers agent. During the few days I had available to travel to Rochester and clean up my brothers home, Adam provided me all the information I needed conduct my activities within my available time frame. All paperwork transactions needed to proceed with the sale went smoothly through the trust and the closing on the original date, proceeded as planned. Adam was a professional and true hero for me during a difficult time period. Thank you Adam!

Adam was so wonderful to work with! His expert knowledge and years of experience led to an easy process of listing our home followed by a quick offer and closing. Adam has a wide array of people that we used to haul away cut limbs, fix a few minor interior items and a designer that helped stage the home. I'm so glad we let Adam take away the stress of selling our home.

Adam is a highly professional, experienced, and knowledgeable agent that was amazing to work with. We were faced with many challenges in preparing our house for sale and Adam led us through it seamlessly connecting us with the resources we needed to quickly address the issues.

The first time he met with us, he provided us with so much good information about the selling process and even was very flexible when our timeline for selling the house moved up quite drastically. He answered any questions we had and kept us in the loop every step of the way. He helped us get over asking on our home, and made the entire experience extremely positive.

If you’re looking for an experienced, knowledgeable, friendly, honest, easy to work with Realtor, Adam Howell is who you should turn to. Even with the market’s rising interest rates, in March of 2023, Adam sold our home to a prequalified buyer at full asking price within FOUR hours of our home “going live” via Adam’s listing. By the way, this was the FOURTH home sale and purchase Adam flawlessly guided us through. Get Adam to help you with buying or selling a home. We wouldn’t have trusted Adam’s counsel four times if he wasn’t great at what he does.

Adam is hands-down the BEST realtor I have ever worked with, and I've worked with several over the years. He was patient with us as we had very particular needs, and he is clearly very experienced because he was always able to spot something, such as a potential issue, I would want to consider in a house. He understood this house hunt was about our preferences, not his. I've had realtors in the past who injected too much of their own preferences into my search. Not Adam, he's thoroughly professional. He's also one of the nicest guys you will ever meet!

Adam is an amazing realtor. He has a calm confidence about him and clearly has much expertise in real estate, particularly in the Rochester, MN market. He helped me set the appropriate price -- and even helped me get over asking! He did a great job advertising the home, including excellent pro pictures and a 3d tour! He is an honest and fair person and that came through during all our interactions. He guided me through the process of my first home sale seamlessly.

Adam will go the extra mile(s) to help you sell your home. His professional and friendly style appeals to all kinds of buyers - a BIG plus! He was there for us every step of the way, updating us promptly so that we never were left wondering what was going on.
His experience was so helpful - we of course had all kinds of (misguided) ideas for the best way to go about things, but he gently and politely guided us in the right direction - resulting in the home selling for more than the estimated value of the home! Can't recommend him enough!! Truly Adam is among the best out there.
