Sellers say this about the Up North Properties real estate team:

"When it was time to sell my home on the Whitefish Chain there was only one Realtor I wanted to work with. As a licensed Realtor myself; I knew how successful the Up North Properties Real Estate Group is. Bill networked to sell my home, and he also lead me through a unique marketing process that helped me purchase a lovely townhouse on Cross Lake. Residential real estate is all about marketing. Bill Grunewald is all about marketing and integrity. Thank you Bill!"
Karen Christofferson

"Marketing by Bill's team is top-notch. But at the end of the day, every seller or buyer must have complete confidence in the real estate agent they have entrusted with their personal real estate portfolio. Bill and his team put their considerable experience to work for us, they treated us respectfully, kept us informed and they got or Crosslake home sold for us. Thank you for a great job!"
Tom Burt

"When I found out I had to move back to Wisconsin I called the Up North Properties Real Estate Group to list my house.
I knew it was a tough market out there with all the short sales and foreclosures. I had built this house for myself with lots of the extra's I wanted. It was in mint condition. It was a difficult market but thanks to Bill and Joan we sold our Merrifield home and I'm back in Wisconsin."
Jeri

"We have sold multiple properties with the Up North Properties Real Estate Group. The current real estate market seemed more of struggle this time around but we had been receiving multiple updates and communications from them regarding the current market and showing feedback. We found this to be very helpful when making any price reductions. They have so much knowledge are the leaders in innovative marketing; they always have great ideas. We recently received a purchase agreement on a new construction that we built. The buyer was all the way from Germany and felt so comfortable with them and the extra's they were able to give him that he purchased it from across the ocean. Their website is a very powerful marketing tool for buyers and seller! We are anxiously awaiting another successful sale from the Up North Properties Real Estate Group!"

Buyers say this about the Up North Properties Team:

"My fiancée and I found our perfect first home on Bill's Up North Properties website. Bill negotiated a fair price on a foreclosed home, and also led us through the process, including site visits and the inspections we need to protect our interests. Securing a mortgage and providing the title insurance policy were also part of Bill's one-stop shopping service and we did that almost exclusively online. We did attend our closing in person since we were excited first-time homebuyers! Bill made us feel secure and confident in this big first step toward homeownership."
Joey Dumond

"We began our cabin adventure knowing we wanted to be on Pelican Lake as we currently have family that also have a cabin on Pelican Lake. We had assumed with our narrow search criteria that finding a property would be easy. We contacted the Up North Properties Real Estate Group and were impressed with the quick response that we received. We then ventured out and looked at numerous properties but were unable to find just what we were looking for; Joan then decided that we should also look at some lots on Pelican Lake to determine if maybe building could be an option. We found a great lot and were shown a new construction home also built in the area that fit us perfectly. We are now in the process of building and couldn't be happier!"
Joseph and Penny Bianchi

"One of my friends referred me to Joan when I decided I wanted to live in the Crosslake area. I was living in Duluth and working full time so the only time I could look was on weekends. We looked at a lot of homes. We put offers in on two different homes and I didn't get either of them. I was getting discouraged until we found a new one that had dropped in price. We went and looked at it and it was perfect for me. This time I wasn't going to miss out! We put the offer in that same day and I got it. I really enjoyed working with Joan."
Andrea Quarnstrom

"After losing out on a cabin in Western Wisconsin, we decided to try a new area in hopes of finding everything we wanted.
We contacted Up North Properties through the website looking for some guidance in the Brainerd Lakes Area.
We were immediately contacted by Jeremy Miller who asked some additional questions and quickly set up multiple showings for us based on our "wish list".
Jeremy is highly knowledgeable about the region and gave us all of the "inside scoop" on each lake area. Once we decided on a cabin, he helped us make the right offer and we felt he was on "our side" during the process of negotiation. We appreciated that Jeremy always communicated with us through every step and was easy to reach at all times. He went the extra mile by coordinating other services for us that we needed prior to closing.
I'd highly recommend working with Jeremy Miller to anybody I know because of his professionalism....he saves busy people a lot of time. He's made a lifelong dream come true for our family!"
Dr. and Mrs. Todd Kihne

I found Bill while searching for lake homes on the Up North Properties web site. I didn't know the Brainerd Lakes area well but I had always heard it was a great place to make home. Bill was very patient and we looked at many homes I was impressed with all his knowledge about area lakes. He knew what was important to me, and that I really enjoyed fishing and hunting. We were successful I know live on the Whitefish Chain thanks Bill!

"We found Joan and Bill through their Up North Properties website. User friendliness was true of the website and most importantly, working with Joan and Bill was more than user friendly. They were never pushy and they exceeded our expectations. Great People!"
