The service provided by Frida and her colleague, Patty, was fantastic, professional, and delivered results beyond my expectations. I would recommend her to anyone looking to engage a real estate professional. In my case, I was 400 miles away from the property and needed someone I could fully trust. Frida and Patty filled that bill.
Frida and her colleague Patty Nofal are probably the most patient, knowledgeable and kind realtors I have ever met. They worked with us around our very specific requirements and delivered the dream property we were hoping to acquire. Once they found "the" place, I was unable to visit the property in person and the bids were due in a few days. So they drove sixty miles and took a few dozen videos, gave us expert advice and delivered a deal that won. Can't say enough about Frida and team...if you are looking for property in the UP of Michigan they are quite simply the best.
Frida was a delight to work with! She created an environment for my buyer and me that was warm, friendly, cooperative and focused on everyone's best interests. I could tell she truly loves what she does and cares deeply for the people she is helping to start the next chapter in their lives. To say I highly recommend her is a gross understatement. You should feel honored to work with her!
Frida and Patty are simply the best. They know the area well and are honest and patient. It took me five years to find my Lake Superior home and they were with me every step of the way, including recommendations post sale.
Frida is a local treasure. She did an amazing job, along with her assistant Pat Nofal. It was a pleasure working with them. She was always available by phone or text. Frida would call me after normal business hours to ensure my questions were answered.. I would highly recommend her to everyone.
We were very thankful for Patty and Fridas local knowledge and responsiveness. They were fantastic and we are so grateful for their insight into the home-buying process, particularly in Marquette.
Our experience with Frida and Patty has been exceptional. We worked with them to purchase both our primary residence and camp on Lake Independence. They were incredibly responsive to our needs and actively involved at every step. Their knowledge of the area is second to none.
Frida and Patty were great to work with! Super helpful, very knowledgeable and very responsive. Helpful throughout the whole process from the beginning at the very first showing to even after the closing!
Frida and Patty understood all my concerns and those of the seller. When there was an unexpected turn of events, they handled everything with compassion and kindness. Everyone was grateful for their professionalism and sensitivity. They were able to provide me with information regarding who to call for maintenance issues, how to go about getting utilities and internet service, and even coordinated with my banker. Since neither party were on-site for this purchase, it was wonderful for me to know that everyone involved locally was able to work together so smoothly to ensure the sale progressed without problem and both the buyer and seller's needs were addressed.
Excellent experience. My parents were not ready to give up independent living just yet. I reached out to Frida to help my parents take the next step in living safely, happily, and with dignity as they navigated this quickly changing time in their lives. Frida bonded with them immediately, learned what they needed and never lost sight of what they wanted in a new home. She found the perfect home for them and helped us navigate the purchase and sell processes like the pro she is.
We connected with Frida by chance and we couldnt be happier with our experience. Since we were out of state communication was extremely important. Phone calls (early morning and late evening given the time zone change), emails, and even video of property we were interested in was extremely helpful. We were guided before, during and after in all aspects of buying a house. By the time we met in person at closing it felt like we were already part of the community. I highly recommend Frida and her staff you are looking for a realtor!
Frida is a bundle of energy in her job. She is enthusiastic in a professional yet down to earth way.. She works very hard behind the scenes in exploring all avenues to reach the clients perfect home.. I feel that she genuinely cares for all her clients and the money is only secondary. We truly were happy working with her and your partner Patty. I highly recommend their service.
Frida & Patty were wonderful to work with. They are very family friendly and flexible with their schedules. Going through paperwork was a breeze with their guidance and expertise. I would recommend using Frida & Patty for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Frida and Patti are the dynamic duo! Their knowledge and expertise in the real estate market is extraordinary and their ability to think outside the box is a welcome and genuine asset to both sides of the transaction. My wife and I have bought and sold many properties with team Frida and Patti; everyone of them has been a smashing success. If you want a personal, reliable, and professional experience contact them!
Frida is the best!!! When we decided to move to the UP we came across Frida in a random way, but I'm sure glad we did! She did an amazing job in understanding what we were looking for and working hard to find it. It is hard to imagine anyone who knows Marquette better than Frida. She knows this place inside and out and has connections beyond belief. If you're just reading reviews trying to pick an agent - you must give her a call! We immediately formed a true connection and trust with Frida and she truly has the pulse of the Marquette community. She will find what you're looking for! She did for us and we are so happy with our house and our experience. We've moved several times and had some good agents, but have never had an agent as special as Frida. She is professional, sincere, knowledgeable and just special. I've already recommended her to my parents and sister. She is awesome!!!
Frida and Patty are beyond amazing. Taking the time to understand your desires, wants, and must haves. They are passionate about their line of work and provide a truly one of a kind experience. Their local knowledge is uncanny, communication impeccable. If you are looking for an agent that will listen to you, provide feed back and work to no end to find you, your forever home, this dream team is it!
What can you say about the person who found you your dream home?! Thank you will never cover it!We met Frida when we decided to buy the home for our retirement. We were purchasing from a different state and while we knew the area, we did not know it in-depth, and either situation causes issues but both is troublesome. Frida entered the picture and it was like she read our minds! Frida, and her assistant Patty, listened to what we wanted and found us many houses - all spot on - to see on our visit. Since we were coming from out of state, it was a packed trip but she handled it with precision timing and also with flexibility to revisit. I may not have looked initially at the home we ended up purchasing, but once in it, we knew it was exactly what we wanted & hoped for. Frida's insight to the area was amazingly and we could not have done it without her.
Frida went above and beyond to help us with all of our real estate questions. She really cares about her clients and wants to help them find the right place.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Frida and her assistant Patty!! I had a very specialized property to sell and live 1,200 miles away from the property. Frida and her assistant Patty helped me find local help to get things that I needed done. They never gave up even when I did after having buyers back out and having to start from scratch again. Very difficult process from 1,200 miles away but they made it possible and negotiated a great price for me (much more than other agents I interviewed told me the property was worth)!! I would not hesitate to use Frida and Patty again!!
This is the second home that Frida and her team have helped us list and sell. Both instances have been very smooth. She was accurate with information regarding market conditions and what our expectations as sellers should be. Any changes in the process were communicated in a timely fashion. We appreciated that she always had time to answer questions and provide insight on where we were at in our progression. If in the future we have any real estate needs, we will definitely be calling Frida for assistance.
My husband and I had Frida and Patty work with us to acquire a darling house close to NMUs campus for our daughter to live in while she is a student. As with most things I'm sure there were hiccups, but between the two of them this duo handled everything beautifully, hands down. We also had to finalize and wrap up the deal during the first month of the pandemic, and from a distance as well. This would have been epically more difficult had Patty and Frida knew exactly what to do to help us navigate the process and bring it to a close. Both of these gals also have detailed knowledge of the city and surrounding areas, and are spot on with their recommendations for truly good dining, outdoor activities, and which local businesses to tap when services are needed. Thank you both for taking care of us, and our daughter, with your patience and professionalism!
Frida exhibited a level of expertise that I have not encountered with any real estate professional prior! Extremely knowledgeable and courteous, made us feel like we were her only client! Although our property did not sell, we feel she did everything possible. As it turns out we took our property off the market and decided not to relocate and we are happy with that choice! Thank You Frida for all your effort and guidance, We owe you a cold beer!!
We were first time home buyers and did not have a strong understanding of all the details involved in purchasing a home and needed a trusted partner to help guide us. Frida Waara and Patricia Nofal not only helped guide us through that process skillfully but literally outperformed the homeowner's realtor whose property listing we found on Zillow. That realtor couldn't be bothered to pick up the phone to show us the house, but Frida and Patty were happy to take the lead. Even though it wasn't a listing of theirs they were determined to see us with the home of our dreams and went above and beyond to make sure it happened. We would not be in the perfect home aEUR"A and the previous homeowners would never have sold it aEUR" if it were not for this incredibly dedicated team that got the job done quickly and gracefully. Selling or buying I would want these professionals on my side.
Couldn't ask for anyone better to buy or sell your home. Frida and team Patty went out their way to find my husband and I the perfect home. Super knowledgeable, they really know all the local areas. Very happy from the time we started looking, through closing and after!
We had such a wonderful experience with Frida and Patty during the sale of our home. Their honesty, integrity, communication,and knowledge are unmatched. Our home sold in record time in an otherwise slow market area. We even received our projected sale price! Anyone looking to move would be wise to contact Frida with Remax Realty. You won't be disappointed!
Frida knows all the ins and outs of the Marquette market. She brings an enthusiasm and joy to the process that makes her so fun to work with. She has a great team as well, in particular her colleague Patty Nofal; Patty really complements Frida well and you really get 2 great agents in place of one. They helped us with both a purchase and a sale, and their expertise made the transactions smooth, stress free, and financially sound.
Frida worked with us to find a place in Marquette. She followed up promptly and showed us many options. We looked at land, as well as existing homes. Was great working with her!
Frida was able to help sell our home in about 80 days, which is nearly unheard of in our rural area. Not only that, but we sold our home for our target price.Frida's negotiating skills, demeanor, integrity, and respect for her client's, place her at the top in the real estate business.I highly recommend any buyer or seller to seriously consider Frida as yet their real estate professional.
There isn't another realtor with the knowledge, drive, and passion to sell, support and guide her customers. She has a great team member Patty who is also as passionate as Frida. Both are A+ realtors, given 110%. Thank you
Frida has helped us sell several properties on the Hoist Basin and helped us purchase a farm. She is the "go-to" person for real estate in Marquette county., with a great network of contacts and lots of local knowledge. She also has associates to provide complete coverage. I highly recommend her as a reliable real estate agent.

Frida was instrumental in selling our home in appr 80 days. This is very fast in our area. She is an outstanding, caring, personable agent. We feel very fortunate to call Frida a dear friend. Her determination and wonderful personality sets Frida apart.
We have been wanting to relocate back in the UP for a number of years and Frida spent many hours researching and providing properties which fit our dreams and budget. She was always accessible and a pleasure communicating with.
Frida was a pleasure to work with as well as her fantastic assistant Patty. The closing went smoothly.
We were able to complete the purchase from out of town without any glitches. The entire process from start to finish was navigated by Frida and Patty and we enjoyed the ride!
Frida always makes sure everything is transparent so decisions are based on solid information. It helps a great deal that Frida knows the other agents in town so communication is fast and honest. Frida is very attentive to her clients needs and gets information requested very quickly. Patty who works with Frida also helps in fast responses and does a lot of work to set up showings or get requested information.
Working with Frida Waara and Patty Nofal was a treat. Not only did they help us find a beautiful home, but they treated us as friends and new neighbors. We were so fortunate to work with them!
Frida was wonderful and easy to work with. She made the process of buying and selling a home a breeze and was always available whenever I had questions. Thank you for making things happen!
Frida has helped our family with both buying and selling a family home. Each time she made the process smooth. She's very responsive, and helped us see possible outcomes while keeping the ship steady. Both Frida and her assistant Patty have been a pleasure to work with, and my wife and I will be looking to work with them again soon.
Frida and her assistant Patty worked tirelessly to get our short sale approved and finalized. We hired Frida, because we knew we were going to need a realtor with that extra drive to get our home sold, and she is known locally for being a "go-getter." That reputation proved to be true. She advocated our property to many of her clients, and even occasionally sent emails to all the realtors reminding them of our home! But it was her and her alone that finally brought a buyer to our home, and if it wasn't for her, we would still be trying to sell it. She spent a substantial time working on the closeout process with the bank, and no doubt earned her money! I would hire her again if I had to do it over. 5 Stars all around, except for "Process Expertise"), and that's because it was her first short sale, so there was a learning curve to that part. That being said, she put all the necessary effort in to learning what she needed to! All that tenacity must be because she's a Finn! Thanks Frida!
Frida helped ou family find the perfect home. She was always there for us, super responsive, and always ready with great advice. She got to know us and understood exactly what we were looking for and she helped to make our dreams a reality. Thank you Frida!
Thanks Frida for your and Patty's support during our relocation to Marquette. We appreciated the coordinated services between REMAX, the condo association, and Kristen at River Valley Bank. Your experience and personal touch helped moved negotiations forward with the seller. I really appreciated your support in addressing items noted in the inspection report and working with the seller to negotiate an agreeable resolution. The support and encouragement to obtain VA approval for the condo association was very much appreciated. It was complicated, but you were very helpful. As a veteran, I am glad veterans in the future will be able to consider purchasing a home at the condo association. Sincerely, Roy & Jan
Working with Frida and her staff of professionals was an excellent experience for my wife and myself as we looked to purchase property in the Marquette area. We were extremely impressed with their timeliness and expertise, and they made every effort to ensure that the process of buying a home went as smoothly as possible for us. Frida and her staff are also truly nice people, and they went well beyond what we expected to welcome us to the UP. They have our highest recommendation.
Frida is extremely responsive and keeps things moving. And, of course she is a very pleasant person to work with. When the seller was not providing documents I needed to make rational decisions Frida tactfully but persistently obtained those documents. Her connections and knowledge of the area are also of great benefit.

Frida's natural affinity for the area was apparent and genuine. She was thorough, professional and easy to work with. As out of the area customers, we appreciated the ability to transact electronically. Our entire experience was smooth.
Frida Waara went above and beyond to make sure we found the right home that fit all our needs! She and her assistant, Patti Nofal, did their jobs perfectly and then some! From keeping all the moving parts of this process organized and on time, to their always friendly and enjoyable approach to their work they were a delight to work with and their professionalism and deep resources with the community made our first time home purchase about as reassuring and smooth as it could get. Couldn't recommend a more dedicated or enjoyable team to work with!
Frida and Patty were great to work with. Our home sold quickly and they were very attentive to every detail. I highly recommend them!
Frida and all her staff were excellent. They were very supportive and helpful and we couldn't be happier with how the entire process went. Very knowledgeable about the area and provided great recommendations. I'd recommend her to anybody.
Frida was loyal to us and always had our best interests at heart. She stuck out the process with us even though we had taken our house off the market for a period (in order to rent it out for several months) before putting it back on the market. She ultimately made the sale happen and we couldn't be happier.
