Fantastic experience: We bought our home in Rogers, MN, and Darin was truly a blessing. My family and I are incredibly grateful to have had Darin by us throughout our home-buying journey. From day one, he demonstrated patience, knowledge, and professionalism, which set him apart.

What stood out the most was how consistently responsive and reassuring he was. Darin was always there for us, whether it was a late-night question or a last-minute showing.

Fantastic experience: Darin was our agent to sell our home in Woodbury, MN. We had high expectations going into the process and Darin exceeded those expectations. Darin had command and control of the process from beginning to end, he communicated exceptionally well and overcame several obstacles along the way. We had not sold a house in 26 years. Darin was direct and concise about what we needed to do to prepare the home for sale...super helpful! He laid out a strategy to maximize the value of our home and it worked perfectly in that we realized more than the asking price. We were out of town during the sale process and during those weeks he took care of the house as if it was his own. Finally, there were several obstacles (not created by Darin or us) that had to be overcome to get the deal done on time. Darin communicated in a timely fashion to keep us informed but more impressively, went out of his way to make things happen. Even the buyer commented on how impressed they were! If you are looking for a Realtor in and around the Woodbury area, call Darin, he is the best! My 3 kids are all approaching home buying and I will recommend Darin to them.

Fantastic experience: We worked with Darin 15 years ago when we bought our first home, so when it was time to sell, we didn’t even think twice—we called him again. It felt like reconnecting with an old friend who happens to seriously know his stuff. With his guidance and prep, we had multiple offers after our very first open house and sold quickly. The whole process was smooth, low-stress, and even fun (yes, really). If you’re looking for a real estate agent who’s genuine, experienced, and gets results, Darin is your guy!

Fantastic experience: Darin did an outstanding job helping my husband sell a home in Maplewood. My husband is managing his brother's Minnesota estate.

We could not recommend him more highly.

Darin spent an entire day showing us multiple suburbs and homes. He provided a wealth of information about what to look for in a home in MN. When we found our dream home, Darin and his team were part of the entire process with the builder. When my husband flew out for the day on the final walk-through Lindsay from Darin’s team was there. Darin picked up our keys after our closing while we were driving cross country. One of the wisest decisions we made was having Darin help us! Exceptional personable service.

Fantastic experience: 100% recommend Darin! Helped our family sell & buy a home with ease. Wonderful personality & keeps the process smooth, clean & fun! Thanks Darin!

Fantastic experience: This was my first home-purchase. Darin helped guide me, educate me, and walk me thru the home-buying process. He had brilliant insight into the condition of the homes we toured with his superb knowledge of the local area. Darin was also able to provide rough estimates as to what potentially might need to be replaced or repaired with various homes. I was able to purchase my first home with confidence and have not had any buyer's remorse thanks to Darin's real estate experience!

Fantastic experience: Moving from the other side of the world, during a pandemic with a crazy market on a short-ish timeline was super stressful but Darin helped make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible!

Fantastic experience: Darin is very knowledgeable in what to look for in buying a house and what to do and not do when selling a house. He not only notices the big things(which most people can do) he points all all the little things you might not see that could end up costing you money and problems in the end. Darin and his team are very professional and are very quick with responsiveness. We had finally found our “dream” home and even though he knew this was the house that we wanted he was still pointing little things out to us, just making sure we knew everything about the house. That told me he was just not looking to get a transaction done, but that he truly cared to make sure the house was right for our family. And when we sold our house he was spot on with any corrections/updates that don’t necessarily have to be done but should to get the house sold quickly and for top dollar. If you are reading this looking for a realtor, just stop and call Darin it will be the best decision you make in your moving experience.

Fantastic experience: Darin Bjerknes’s service during the sale/purchase of our home was outstanding! During the selling of our home, Darin provided constructive feedback about how best to prepare it for sale. The detailed information that he shared about the market value of homes in the area helped us to collaboratively set the price. Mr. Bjerknes‘s creative marketing strategies highlighted the best features of our home and its location which drew many prospective buyers in a short amount of time. During the purchase of our home, we were most struck by Darin‘s integrity and his ability to listen to what we needed and how efficiently and effectively he worked to help us find the perfect home that was beyond our expectations. Darin Bjerknes is an effective communicator who exemplifies professionalism, integrity, and outstanding skills as a realtor during all aspects of his work. Darin has our highest recommendation!!!

Fantastic experience: 2021 Review Working with Darin and his team was such a pleasureable, successful experience. Darin provided meaningful suggestions on how to stage and prep our home for the sale. He had awesome tools to showcase the features of our home. He knew how to reach potential buyers and provided a simple way for them to reserve showings once our home hit the market. The online tools for scheduling/approving/reviewing showings and feedback were so efficient. All throughout the process he was supportive and responsive. This was the 7th home we've sold over the years and likely the best experience we've had. Review from 2016 Darin’s customer service & communication are top notch! This is the 7th house we’ve purchased and Darin was able to quickly adapt to our style and the level of questions/answers we needed. He was willing to look into anything we asked and gave us prompt, thorough responses sprinkled with his great knowledge and experience. We definitely recommend him for your realtor needs!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 would work with Darin again! We had met with a few realtors and no one seemed enthusiastic about showing homes. After some friends suggest Darin, we gave him a call. It was the best decision ever because his knowledge of homes made viewings so insightful. I definitely appreciated Darin's ability to point out things that would most likely need to be addressed. It was like getting a 101 on home maintenance with each viewing. We never felt like he was pushing us into a home we didn't want which was nice since buying a home can be stressful. I would recommend Darin in a heartbeat.

Fantastic experience: I contacted Darin when I needed a realtor again. He had previously listed and sold my home in 2015. I was completely satisfied with that sale so I reached out to him again. My father recently passed and I needed a realtor to sell his house. Darin is very professional and knowledgeable but what really helped is that I live 150 miles away and he was completely wonderful in handling this long distance transaction. He was very available and so helpful through the whole process.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I loved working with Darin and would highly recommend him to any one. His professionalism, honesty, and trustworthy character guided us through both the sale and the purchase of our home(s). We had not gone through this process in 18 years and he answered questions patiently, researched any concerns, and went the extra mile for us. The video he created to sell our home was outstanding and got us two offers on the first day we listed! When decisions felt stressful, he gave us just the right guidance and nudge when needed to land us our perfect new home. As a bonus, his warm personality makes him fun to work with! We don't think we could have ended up so happy without him and are grateful for everything he did along the way.

Fantastic experience: I am so happy that I decided to work with Darin to help me sell my home and buy a new one. Darin was amazing in guiding the entire process of the sale and purchase, offering excellent advice and helping me through all my questions and the negotiations with the buyer and sellers. The entire process was extremely effortless, efficient and swift, and I am so grateful for working with Darin. Darin is so knowledgeable, professional and responsive that working with him is a pleasure. I would highly recommend him to friends and family.

Fantastic experience: Whether it was setting up a home search email alert or guiding me through the offer process, working with Darin was a great experience from top to bottom. He is very social and easy to talk to, and he really knows his stuff. I would recommend him whether your a first time buyer like myself or if you've been through this process many times.

Fantastic experience: Darin was thorough, honest and knowledgeable. He understood the market and our neighborhood. We were being relocated and I feel he worked with us on determining the best time to list, that it might mean that the house would be empty when the listing went live, etc. Darin and his team was always responsive and answered any questions we had. I would recommend him to anyone looking to list a home in the Twin Cities!

Fantastic experience: Darin was professional, hard working, driven and patient! From seeing 30+ homes, dealing with our kiddos, to having a smile through the process... Darin is your guy! He was knowledgeable on the inspection points, anticipating issues, and helpful in navigating the contract to close process. His whole team was top notch! We highly recommend using Darin for your real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: Darin and his team were a dream. We were cared for like family from the very beginning. They listened to our concerns and made sure to truly understand what the most important parts for us were during, both the selling and buying process. We had what some would call, not an ideal selling scenario, but Darin did everything he could to ensure ours and the buyers happiness with the home. He was available when we needed him and was super knowledgeable when searching for a home. We are confident that without his assistance, we would not have found our dream home or would have ended up settling.

Fantastic experience: Darin is a quintessential professional and excellent real estate agent. If you have questions, he'll answer them promptly. If a house has flaws or issues, he'll point them out. If a house is solid, he'll let you know. The entire process from first showings to the final closing was as smooth as I could of hoped for and Darin played a big part in that.

Fantastic experience: Darin was extremely helpful throughout our buying experience. He was always looking out for our best interests and providing every effort to get the deal where we all thought it should be. Darin is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Darin was most helpful in getting us through the process of finding a new home in Minnesota while moving from California. Darin helped us find the right home and make an offer that was accepted immediately, a smooth process, and he was with us every step of the way. I highly recommend Darin as he is an excellent and most professional agent to help you with your buying a home needs.

Fantastic experience: Darin was great to work with both for selling our current home as well as with finding our new home to purchase. He is very knowledgeable with the specifics of the entire process and we felt confident in knowing that he was taking care of everything that had to be. We did not feel pressured or rushed with the process of buying and he truly had our best interests in mind. He took the time to get to know what was important to us and what we were specifically looking for in a home. He was also very responsive and flexible which is very important in today's competitive market. We would highly recommend Darin for all of your real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough about how fantastic Darin was to work with! This was my first home so I was/am very inexperienced and I didn't know what to expect. The first home tour I scheduled was with another realtor who was very nice but knew absolutely none of the answers to my questions. I decided to work with Darin and we toured several homes together. Not only is he fun and personable, but he's incredibly knowledgeable. He knew the different areas we were looking at very well, but more importantly knew what to look at in each home. I feel like I really lucked out with him and he made the home-buying process as easy and smooth as he could. From our first meeting to our closing he provided fantastic service and was very patient with us! I would highly recommend Darin to anyone, but especially a first time buyer!

Fantastic experience: Darin exceeded my expectations in helping me find and purchase my home. He paid attention to my criteria and streamlined my search process to fit those needs. His use of technology to communicate made the process go very smoothly! He offered helpful insights regarding things that might be potential problems for certain properties I was viewing, and pointed out helpful hints regarding maintenance and pros and cons for home features. Darin was skilled at negotiating for the price I wanted. An added bonus was Darin's personality. He is friendly, respectful to all parties, and also has a good sense of humor. I would recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for a realtor/broker!

Fantastic experience: Darin came highly recommended to me by a family member. He did not disappoint. He is knowledgeable, personable, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with his time. I had purchased a home before so I was knowledgable about the process however I still had questions and he answered them all. He was always available and his response time could not have been quicker. He is also well networked in the area and recommended me to a great lender, Mike Ouverson with LeaderOne, who also did not disappoint. These two working together were definitely the dream team and with their hard work I was able to buy a townhouse that I am totally in love with. I could not be happier. Darin is also very down to earth and even when the stress of the real estate life roars its ugly head he has a great sense of humor. I recommend him to everyone and will definitely use him in the future myself.

Fantastic experience: Darin was a great agent to work with. He was extremely patient through my very long home buying process, answered my texts/e-mails/calls in a timely fashion, and was always available to go look at houses with me.

Fantastic experience: Darin helped me sell my condo after I relocated to another state. He helped me find contractors to prepare the condo for sale, arranged for professional pictures, and ensured that the condo looked great in person and online. He was very professional and took the time to answer any questions I had throughout the process. The sale went very smoothly thanks to all of Darin's efforts. I highly recommend him to future sellers.

Fantastic experience: We had the pleasure of working with Darin for both buying and selling our home. We continue to recommend him to friends buying and selling. Darin was incredibly helpful, responsive, and genuine. He was more interested in making us happy than making a commission. If you're looking for a realtor who really cares, Darin is your guy.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I recently purchased our first home with the help of Darin Bjerknes. We were able to set up viewings for homes within 24 to 48 hours and Darin had very good working knowledge of aspects that brought value to the home as well as areas of concern. When we settled on a house with a large lot and submitted our offer, Darin was there each step of the way and helped us certify that updates were done by a professional and were up to code. Darin made sure to include an addendum that was signed by the seller that attested that the water softener as well as other appliances such as the washer and dryer were ours as well. This became important when a water softener company came to us and insisted the water softener was rented. We were able to show the document and then the previous owner had to settle with the water softener company. Without the documentation from Darin, we would have had no backbone to show we owned it and we would have had another monthly payment. He does a thorough job and was pleasant to work with.

Fantastic experience: Had a good experience with our home sale/buy. For our home sale he got our listing out everywhere right away and his photographer took great pictures. For buying our new home he showed us a lot of places and was pretty knowledgeable about their flaws.

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of working with Darin during the recent sale of my home. Darin's flexibility, professionalism and expert understanding of the real estate market helped to procure an offer (above list price) on the first showing of the house! Darin went above and beyond the call of duty by representing me at the closing (due to a travel schedule conflict on my end). Darin responded to any question or inquiry I had of him almost immediately, in all cases. It was a pleasure to work with Darin - if you are looking for a true professional that is expert and focused entirely on his real estate business (rather than a part time agent), I highly recommend Darin - I trust him completely.

Fantastic experience: We've had the pleasure of working with Darin for over 10 months in both the home buying and selling processes. Throughout this period, Darin has consistently shown himself to be patient, focused, and deeply knowledgeable of the metro real estate market. He has always been prompt with updates and replies to questions, and is proficient with using technology to make both research and the buying/selling process as painless as can be. He has remained positive and professional through several offers when we were outbid and even as we changed search locations from the east metro to the south metro due a new job offer. Darin was a consistent partner throughout, and we would highly recommend his services to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Working with Darin was a pleasure, his knowledge of home buying and selling process helped us navigate through the real estate noise and complete our home buying process smoothly without a glitch. Himanshu & Nidhi

Fantastic experience: Darin did an amazing job for my wife and I in the purchase of a new home and sale of our existing home. During our new home purchase, he helped us navigate through a late discovery during the final walk through which required extending the closing date and repairs by the current owner. He was steady and ensured our interests were protected during the process. Our home sale went even better, he provided staging, excellent market research and professional photographers that showcased our home for its full potential. We had multiple offers in one day and accepted and offer exceeding our list price. Darin knows this business and works hard to get the best value for you as a buyer and helps you get top dollar for the home you have worked so hard for. I would recommend Darin to anyone looking to make a change. Jeremy Bertsch

Fantastic experience: Darin is an absolutely wonderful real estate agent. He was very thorough and knowledgeable in explaining different specifics about each home we saw. We always felt comfortable in knowing that he would lead us away from a home that might be a money pit, and help us to decide whether a home would be a solid buy or not. You can tell Darin truly cares about his clients and wants them to be completely satisfied with their home purchase. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home.

Fantastic experience: From the first house we looked at to the one we closed, Darin was working to make us happy. His primary agenda was not to sell us a home, but to find the home that we really loved. His responses were immediate. His showings were meticulous. And his insights saved us from investing in more than one money pit. We earnestly recommend Darin to all our friends. Thanks, Darin, for being an outstanding realtor and for becoming our friend in the process.

Fantastic experience: As first time homebuyers, we could not be more happy with the help we got from Darin in all aspects of the real estate process. When we first began our search, we had many many questions and weren't quite sure what we wanted in a home. That's why we feel so fortunate to have picked Darin as our realtor! He was incredibly patient and made himself constantly available...nights, weekends, or whenever - he was always there to answer our questions or get us a showing at a moments notice. His expert advice and wonderful market research really helped to narrow down our search and made us feel comfortable during the negotiating process. The whole time, it really felt like Darin was a friend and just wanted to get the best house possible for us. We really really appreciate the incredible work he put in, and can't imagine the whole thing coming off so smoothly with any other realtor. We now feel extremely informed and are confident in the house we picked. Would definitely recommend Darin to other home buyers and will be coming back when it's time to move again! Thank you Darin!

Fantastic experience: Darrin was one of the best realtors we have used, and we have bought and sold over 10 homes ( not for investments). He was extremely personable, knowledgeable and easy to work with. If he didn't know an answer he would find out for you. He returned calls promptly and made the process less stressful. We knew he listened to our concerns and really wanted to find the best home for us. He never seemed to be in it soley for the commission , he seemed to care about making us satisfied customers. Again, most important, he was extremely knowledgable about ALL aspects of purchasing a home. We would whole heartedly recommend him 100% and will definitely use him again.

Fantastic experience: As a first time home buyer, I was amazed at how easy the home buying process was with Darin. Darin did a great job of explaining the process of searching for a home and things to look for and was extremely helpful in pointing out every potential problem area of each house that we looked at. Also, all of his recommendations that I used from title company to the inspector were very good. Darin was very responsive to all of the questions and concerns that we had throughout the process. He has even been helpful with tracking down information from the sellers weeks after we closed. I am extremely happy that we was our realtor and would not hesitate to work with him in the future to either sell my home or buy a new one.

Fantastic experience: I am honored to call Darin a lifelong friend and so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with him. There is no better words to describe Darin than professional with a true passion for real estate. Darin helped my husband and I find our dream home and that is an understatement. The first home Darin showed us, we put an offer on, purchased, and moved in! That is to say after he navigated all the hurdles the mortgage company, the sellers, and the closing agents threw at us. He did everything for us including the home inspection as we were half way across the country. On the limited time frame that we did have to do some house shopping, Darin had extensive knowledge of the Twin Cities area and pointed us to the neighborhood that made us feel at home. He even pointed out local areas of attraction and never missed an opportunity to find us a Jimmy John's:) I copy this paragraph from another client as I could not say it better myself..."Darin goes above and beyond. He is tech-savvy and available via phone, text and email well past 'work hours.' His dedication and work ethic are top-notch. You would be hard pressed to find a better realtor who cares more about not only the real estate transaction, but about you and your family as well. Darin is high energy and fun to work with. He made the home buying/selling process a joy...." He is a true friend and I cannot express how lucky we were to have had him as a realtor and now have the opportunity to call him our neighbor. Thank you Darin!

Fantastic experience: We feel so fortunate to have been referred to Darin Bjerknes to help us to sell our house in Woodbury and purchase a new one. Any property that we wanted to look at, Darin was able to show us immediately, even on only hours notice. We found a house we loved and Darin worked with the seller’s agent to secure a contingent offer on a Sunday (when our house wasn’t even on the market yet). Darin then had professional photographs taken and our house on the market and sold by Friday morning, for thousands over asking price. This was due to Darin’s fantastic marketing of the property and expertise with pricing it properly, which turned into a multiple offer situation. We were very worried about attempting to buy and sell simultaneously while balancing 2 small children and were trying to avoid temporary housing at all costs. Darin worked hard with multiple agents, mortgage and title companies so we were able to close on both houses on the same day. It was seamless and a feat that Darin single handedly made happen. Darin goes above and beyond any realtor we have ever met. He is tech-savvy and available via phone, text and email well past “work hours.” His dedication and work ethic are top-notch. You would be hard pressed to find a better realtor who cares more about not only the real estate transaction, but about you and your family as well. Darin is high energy and fun to work with. He made the home buying/selling process a joy. He is our realtor for life and now a friend as well.

Fantastic experience: I cannot express on how grateful I am for having Darin help with the selling of the home. He went over and beyond of what a typical realtor will do!! Did I mention that he helped clear out the house and yard? Again, something that no other realtor would do!! Through out the full process, from the time he contacted me via phone, to the time of closing, he was fully engaged and feels very passionate on what he does. He is truthful, ethical, and very personable!! When he is speaking with you, and explaining the process, and where you are in the process, he has your best interest in mind and the conversation is you only and no other distractions. Thank you again Darin for all your hard work and your efforts on selling the house. I have sent your card off to others and I will keep you in mind when I choose to buy again :-)
