The Kent Group Testimonials

Tell Us Your Story

Ann and Gary have sold 3 of our properties.

All 3 experiences were great. One of our homes needed some work done prior to selling. We were living in a different state and they took care of everything, from selecting carpeting and paint to hiring folks to replace appliances. I whole heartedly recommend using their service. We were continually kept pro actively informed and didn't have to pull information from them.

I have worked with Ann and Gary Kent over the past 17 years whenever I have purchased or sold a home.

The Kent's make an amazing team at Edina Realty! Ann and Gary Kent are extremely knowledgeable, honest, professional, prompt, meticulous, and personable. I have always appreciated how Ann and Gary are truly down to earth great people that have kind loving hearts. Ann and Gary are not the typical run of the mill realtors just out to make a sale. The Kent's have always treated each customer individually and with respect and dignity; this is one of the many reasons' I have continued to worked with Ann and Gary over the years. I highly recommend Ann and Gary Kent they will be honest with you and take good care of you as they work hard for you to make sure you find a place to call home!

Ann and Gary truly are wonderful to work with.

We worked with them as first time home buyers and they helped us understand all sorts of things to look into when looking at homes. They sold our first home in less than a week and have been so supportive every time we have questions about the market. Love working with them!!

Ann and Gary Kent are not your everyday realtors.

They are fun-loving caring people who are conscientious about their work. My husband Chip and I just moved into our brand new home built by M&I Builders, and we couldn't be happier with our home. I would like to mention that chip and I are blind and Ann and Gary Kent rallied along side us every step of the way from start to finish. They were truly a Godsend to us. Bottom line is this. if anybody is considering buying or selling a home, Ann and Gary Kent are your people. they are head and shoulders above the rest. In other words, they are in a class all by themselves. Ann and Gary, Chip and I say you are second to none. We thank you for helping us through this process. Our hearts are truly full, because you helped make our dream come true.

Ann and Gary and phenomenal people!

They were so great at helping my mom find her new home back in Minnesota. The compassion they have towards others is superb and they make you feel like family. Thank you for your support and working for my mom. You checked off all the boxes my mom needed for her new home!

Katie Lemke

Ann and Gary were outstanding!

I live in another state and decided to sell my rental home in Apple Valley, MN. Once my renter moved out, they took care of setting up a painter, carpet installer, as well as cleaning out the items my renter had left behind. They made sure they were there when any work people were there to make sure things got done properly. They kept everything moving so smoothly that I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They were always available when I had any questions and made me feel like I was their only client with all the time and attention they gave me. I would recommend them to anyone! If I decide to move back to MN they will be the first call I make!

Ann and Gary are a great team!

They are heaven sent. I was very satisfied with their service. As a first time home buyer I didnt know what to expect when trying to purchase a home but they were informative and helped me to understand the process which made me feel more comfortable especially in the 2021 housing market which was very fast and super competitive with all the bidding wars and slim pickings. Ann's personality is wonderful (I love her) it was like I was speaking with a very wise family member who had my best interest in mind (she's like a fun auntie). She kept me motivated and saved me from alot of disappointment. I felt like Ann and Gary really cared about me and my family. I highly recommend their services you will not regret it! I will be in contact with them for my 2nd home purchase in the future and others!

Ann is fabulous!

The realtor services I received from her were excellent. She listened carefully to what I needed in my new house, sent me information on lots of homes within my budget and preferred locations, then drove me to every house I wanted to see. Even had fruit, snacks and soft drinks in the car in case I got hungry after looking at so many homes! Ann is a very experienced realtor; very attentive, punctual, reliable, totally trustworthy and super fun to be around. I would recommend her to anyone who prefers practical and sound advise for finding a home. I found mine in Red Wing and am eternally grateful for her very professional help.

Ann was very patient with us (first time home buyers) and explained all parts of the process and what to expect at different times once we had found a home we liked, in addition to being invaluable in our negotiation and offer.

She always made time for us, and immediately helped us through an issue the seller had left that we ended up needing to contact the seller for.

"Ann and Gary Kent were beyond professional and helpful as we looked for a new home in the crazy Minneapolis market. We cannot thank them enough for their support and guidance as first-time homebuyers to help us navigate the process and find such a cute house! Thank you both so much!"

"Ann and Gary were professional and knowledgeable. When I had a question or concern Ann always got back to me with an answer or reassuring words. Our house was on the market for 5 days when an offer came through. Ann helped explain the journey of buying and selling of our home. She helped us buy the home we fell in love with on the first walk through. Ann did a wonderful job of communicating with the other two realtors when it came to arranging of information and closings. She was with us the whole journey."

"Ann and Gary were very attentive. They helped us list and sell our home, and purchase raw land. In listing our home, they had their interior designer provide recommendations on staging the home with an in-person appt. Diane was awesome! We followed all the recommendations which made the home look great both in person and in the pictures. The pictures we were especially awed with. They turned out better than expected and actually had us second guessing on selling. We did hold an open house during COVID per their recommendations and it went well. While home selling is a stressful and emotional period, we were grateful for Ann and Gary being there and accommodating our griefs! Our home sold quickly thanks to their interior designer and advertising of our home. As a home seller, you're always thankful for this as it is very stressful not to mention time consuming staging a home for showings. Ann and Gary always responded to our emails and texts promptly. They made sure we were up to date on progress and status. In looking for raw property, they walked the forested properties with us which many were surprised to hear of! Marco Polo =) Professional, wonderful realtors we would recommend to anyone!"

"Fantastic! Responsive and knowledgeable. They brought us through many homes some which were horrible and some of which were borderline. In this market as fast as houses were being purchased it was nice to have a team that was on top of it!"

"Cant say enough good things about how helpful Ann and Gary were during our move from Indiana to Minneapolis this spring (May 2020). We asked them to do the impossible task of finding a big enough house for our expanding family but only within a really narrow area so we could be close neighbors with our family who already lived int eh Longfellow neighborhood. No doubt Ann and Gary could have sold us that was "good enough" and met our very specific location needs, but they also knew the area and market well enough to encourage us to be patient and to cut corners (i.e. buy a house next to commercial property, or on a busy street, or needs some basement work, or is at the upper limit of our budget). We were definitely tempted to just get a "good enough" house that was near enough to our family and call it a day, but they knew we had time and could afford to wait and we ended up finding the perfect house! We are so grateful to have had their expertise for such a complicated decision. I would highly recommend working them."

"Ann and Gary are very knowledgeable. They know the market well and have the best communication. We made last minute updates to our home as suggested and had 3 high bids on it immediately. Sold the same day it went on the market! Thank you both!!"

"Gary & Ann did a fantastic of selling my mothers house. It wasn't in the best of shape. Before contacting the Kents, I has another realtor and one of those "will buy your house for cash". To be totally honest, I would have sold to the cash instead of the other realtor. His offer was better than the other realtor! Then I contacted the Kents. SO HAPPY I did. My mothers house sold for about 85k more. Definitely 2 thumbs up!"

"Ann took us through from start to finish in our search process, and once we decided on a home, helped us to negotiate a good price as well as some protection as a buyer, which was extremely important in this Seller's Market.We were new home buyers, and Ann was able to break down the process into manageable chunks, and work with competing schedules to give us all the face-time that we needed over Zoom, or in person when needed.The process from offer to closing was very quick, but Ann was there with us every step of the way and got us closed on time as well as providing a solid financing contact."
