    About AJ Pettersen

    In 2017, AJ Pettersen founded The Advisory Group. He chose to form a team because he wanted to build a culture that fosters agent collaboration, efficiency, & outstanding customer service. To support his agents and promote the culture, AJ handpicked two employees that provide marketing and transaction assistance to the team. Since his agents receive internal support, they are able to concentrate their efforts on the home buying and selling process. Another key feature of The Advisory Group is the system processes that the team created. These processes allow the agents to expand their business without increasing turnaround times or decreasing the level of service provided. AJ is a Minnesotan through and through. After attending Minnetonka High School, he was given the opportunity to play baseball for the University of Minnesota, where he graduated with a degree in Economics. He later realized a childhood dream when he was drafted by the Minnesota Twins. Baseball offered AJ to travel the country for three years professioanlly, but ultimately he returned to the place he has called home most of his life. He loves Minnesota for the genuine people and variety of seasons. He enjoys learning about others so he can best meet their needs and help them achieve their own dreams. AJ and his wife, Emily, live in Minnetonka with their sons, Holden and Brody, and dog, Willa.

    Can't say enough good things about Josh. He was attentive to our needs and highly responsive, and set proper expectations from the outset. When it came time for negotiations, he was calm and level-headed, providing expert advice at each step. He actively marketed our home each week and continued to put work in until it sold. If you're looking for a nice AND exceptional realtor, Josh is your guy.

    We were connected with Stephanie through Zillow and she was so helpful and knowledgeable that we stuck with her from our initial browsing, to more intense search and eventually buying. The entire time, she was so helpful, remembering all our details, interests and desires, so much so that it made us feel like we were the only people she was working with (though we knew it wasn't true). We eventually found our dream home and se helped us negotiate after our initial offer fell through. She was with us the entire time all through the process. We hadn't owned a home in a few years and hadn't looked in over a decade and I felt completely secure in the process from her knowledge of homes, the area, the process and more. Highly highly recommend her to anyone!

    Working with Jenny to find our first home was a fantastic experience. She was incredibly helpful in locating an affordable starter home that perfectly fit our budget and needs. Jenny provided us with numerous property options to consider and was extremely accommodating when it came to scheduling tours around our availability. Her flexibility made the entire home-hunting process much less stressful. As first-time homebuyers, we had many questions and concerns throughout the process. Jenny was patient and knowledgeable, offering valuable guidance and information every step of the way. She made sure we understood everything and felt confident in our decisions. We're so grateful for her expertise and dedication in helping us find our perfect starter home. We highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive real estate agent!

    Reached out promptly on my tour request but never responded to my confirmation messages on the Zillow realtor chat and cancelled the tour as soon as I sent confirmation via text ??. Assuming the tour didn't work out with their schedule but would have been great if they had gotten back to me if that was the case.

    Britt helped me sell my house and find a new place during a divorce - she is very knowledgable and has a great support team at the Advisory, plus got me in touch with an excellent Title Company that took care of everything during the tough emotional time. Britt is straghtforward, will guide you through buying and selling, and will make sure you know your options. She is also excellent and following up after the sale and making sure everything is ok, which was not the case with the agent I used to buy my house in the first place. Thanks, Britt!!
