ZillowVERIFIEDKatey and Maddie understood what I was looking for and always returned my calls, texts & emails promptly. Maddie took me to see many houses, and they were both knowledgeable about the neighborhoods & communities I visited in my search. They gave good advice regarding offers I made and were patient with my decision-making. When I found the right house, the closing went very smoothly and I was aEUR~kept in the loop about the process by all involved. Their communication with the sellers agent was very good, and that helped me to feel confident about my choice. Even after the sale, they gave me referrals for a house painter & a contractor that turned out to be great choices. I can recommend Katey Bean & Co. without reservation, and I would work with them again.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe started working with Maddy & Katey a couple of months ago in search of our first home. To say we have been happy with our experience would be an understatement as both Maddy & Katey have been nothing short of amazing every step of the way. Throughout our search, offer processes, inspections and negotiations they have listened to us, heard our concerns and anticipated our needs. Their timely communication and dependability made us so much more comfortable and confident in the entire process. My wife and I could not recommend them more, theyre the best!!

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey and her team are incredible! As a first-time homebuyer, she made the entire process simple and seamless so that I always knew what needed to be done next and never felt stressed or overwhelmed. Katey was a delight to tour homes with, always responded quickly and thoroughly whenever I had questions, and did a phenomenal job negotiating the purchase of my home to gain some great savings from the sellers. I can't recommend her enough!

Review for Member: Katey Bean
ZillowVERIFIEDOur family was so pleased that we chose Katey Bean and her team to help us purchase our new home in the Twin Cities. Being newer to the region we had several areas in mind and Katey used her expertise to help us narrow in on several high yield neighborhoods. She started out with a wide variety of properties and helped us to narrow down our focus as we learned our own preferences along the way. We never felt rushed during those initial stages and always felt comfortable taking our time and asking plenty of questions. We ended up purchasing a wonderful home that we probably would have never visited without her input. While awaiting our final sale, Katey was gracious enough to meet us at the new house multiple times to help coordinate projects like measuring for window shade installation that would be finished after our closing. Working with Katey and her whole team was such a pleasant experience and we always felt that she had our best interest at heart. She was responsive, thoughtful and a wonderful communicator. Everyone else on her team shared Kateys qualities and she helped connect us to a vast network of companies who helped us with everything from inspection to moving. Our level of trust in Katey translated to her entire network and we were grateful to have personal referrals to help seamlessly facilitate all aspects of our move. This was not our first home purchase but it was by far our best experience. We cannot recommend Katey and her team highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey was recommended to me by a family member, and she exceeded my expectations. She transformed what initially felt like an overwhelming process into one that was smooth, manageable, and even enjoyable. As a first-time homebuyer, I especially appreciated how clearly she explained each step and ensured I felt confident in every decision. Throughout the process, Katey demonstrated a high level of professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail. She remained proactive and kept me consistently informed from start to finish. I am truly grateful for her guidance and support. I would highly recommend Katey to anyone, whether a first-time or experienced homebuyer. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and a pleasure to work with.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a great experience working with Katey and Maddy. They made our first home purchase very easy, from explaining every step of the process to us in detail and responding to our questions quickly. Maddy got us on every home tour we showed interest in, and shared any potential concerns in a property. We appreciated their many years of expertise, which guided us to make proper negotiations for our house. They have an excellent reputation and many trusted connections for all the things we needed. We would recommend them to any buyer, and look forward to using them again many years down the road!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe're grateful to have been connected with Katey through the agent who helped us sell our home in Nashville. Working with Katey and her entire network felt like receiving a big, warm hug from a group of kind people guiding us through the process. Not only was she exceptional, but her team and extended contacts (lender, inspectors, etc.) were also amazing, providing seamless support every step of the way. Katey is very responsive and incredibly generous with her knowledge, too. As we looked at different houses and areas, she educated us on the local market dynamics, potential long-term value, and things to watch out for. This made us feel incredibly empowered when we made our decisions. The entire time, it truly felt like we had a solid advocate in our corner. Katey helped us strategize to ensure we presented the best possible offer in a competitive market. She was also unfailingly patient, answering every question and listening attentively to all of our concerns. We cannot recommend Katey highly enough. If you want a knowledgeable, supportive, and highly effective agent to fight for you, she is the one!

ZillowVERIFIEDJennifer was very responsive, calm (even when I wasnt) and efficient - I was amazed at how often she was able to answer my phone calls without my having to leave a message. She evidenced significant experience in selling condos like ours and seemed to have the ability to put together very useful information to help us make informed decisions. She anticipated all details that needed to be addressed and ably handled the closing. I highly recommend realtor Jennifer Kotas of Katey Bean & Company!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe enjoyed working with Katey Bean and her team when we bought our first home in Bloomington. Recently we sold a condo in Hopkins with the Katey Bean team. It was as good an experience as the first. Shes easy to work with, very accommodating and professional. Our place sold quickly, very professional pictures highlighting the advantages of living in Hopkins. The negotiations were well done, and we got over asking price. The close was quick and handled expertly. Highly recommended.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is our second sale with Katey. We are very satisfied with her professional representation and access resources to address things that pop up.

Review for Member: Katey Bean
ZillowVERIFIEDNavigating a cross country move is not an easy task. It is especially difficult when you are searching for a rather specific and unique place to call your next home. Katey and her team went above and beyond to not only help find us our needle in a haystack rural residence, they were the experts in navigating several unexpected challenges during the buying experience. Despite these large and small hiccups, some new to us even after several past real estate purchases, Katey always made us feel like we were in control and in the drivers seat. From our first telephone meeting, to our closing and beyond, the support and guidance Katey has provided is immeasurable. We would recommend Katey 1000 times over. We truly felt her genuine desire to find us the best fit for our family needs. Thank you Katey, Jennifer, Maddy, Alex, Nadine, and Whitney for helping us call Minnesota home!

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey was an excellent agent for us. We had not been in the real estate market for 30+ years and needed someone to hold our hands and walk us through the process of selling our home. Katey was ready with answers to every question, guiding us through the process. When the buyer had a last minute finance issue causing us to cancel the sale, Katey didnt hesitate to regroup and get our house back on the market. Katey and her team went above and beyond to see us through to a successful sale and closing. Katey Bean and team are experienced and professional, helpful with every aspect of selling our home. We are grateful for Katey and her team! Kris & Mike Anderson

ZillowVERIFIEDSelling my home with Katey was an incredibly smooth and stress-free experience. From our first meeting, she came prepared with a clear plan, great market knowledge, and the kind of confidence that instantly put me at ease. The entire process moved quicklyaEUR"within days, the listing was live with professional photos and a great description, and we had multiple offers shortly after. Katey handled everything seamlessly, from showings to negotiations, and kept me informed every step of the way. What could have been overwhelming turned out to be easy and even enjoyable thanks to her expertise and communication. I couldnt have asked for a better outcome or a better person to work with. If youre looking to sell your home quickly and without hassle, I highly recommend Katey!

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey was wonderful in helping us sell my elderly parents home . Everything went so smoothly. She was very accommodating to their needs . She even had the closing agent come over to my parents apartment to do the pre closing signing of the documents, so they didnt even need to g into the office.

Review for Member: Katey Bean
ZillowVERIFIEDShe was fantastic! She listened to me and what I wanted and made me feel comfortable sharing my opinions. When we would go out touring, she made sure everything was set in place. Whenever I emailed or texted, she responded so quick. She was so funny and if we toured a place that she didn't like for me she would tell me and she would say why. She checks in and makes the experience fun, easy, exciting and understandable. Even now that I bought the house I still as her for recommendations for painters or whatever. She has a wonderful team behind her making sure that everything unseen was in line once I put the offer in. I have only good things to say about her.

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey Bean is a rock star of the real estate world. I was impressed by her time and time again. She knows the market left, right, up, and down. I was even taken aback how much knowledge she had of the market in other parts of the country. She knows this business, is an excellent resource on all things home related, and is very highly respected by all professionals in the area that one needs to do business with after buying a home. I was profoundly impressed how Katey remembered all the details of what I was looking for in a house. In fact, she noticed the house that I purchased had everything I was looking for before I even did! Katey has been an absolute blessing, and I am so grateful for her!

Review for Member: Katey Bean
ZillowVERIFIEDKatey and her team did an absolutely phenomenal job at helping my wife and I purchase our very first house. She never once made us feel pressured into a sale, and when a house wasnt a good choice for one reason or another she was genuinely up front about it. It was clear from the very start that this was not about making a commission check for her, but rather all about ensuring her clients found a happy home to call their own. She was incredibly responsive to any and all questions, and if she personally wasnt available, she always had someone on her team to help either answer questions or take us to house showings. The members of her team also acted with the same level of integrity and care as Katey did showing genuine care for us. It truly felt like her team was not just an extension of her but a big family that all operated with the same values. Katey has also very clearly taken the time to forge meaningful network connections with phenomenal companies that help service homes whether its radon mitigation, home inspections, etc. She has a full list of companies on her website for various home related needs that she has very clearly vetted for the same level of effectiveness, standards and integrity she holds herself to. Katey sets herself apart in this business in several ways which absolutely include a genuine focus on her client and not the commission, honesty and integrity, amazing responsiveness, the largest knowledge base Ive ever come across in a realtor both in the field of general knowledge of real estate and specific Minnesota real state regardless of location, and her desire to continue to help and reach out appropriately even after the closing process is complete. Keep in mind thats only a very few of the many reasons she sets herself apart. She truly is the full package, and I would highly recommend her and her team whether youre buying your first home or your tenth.

Review for Member: Katey Bean
ZillowVERIFIEDI first interacted with Katey Bean while acting as the executor of my brother's estate and needing to sell his townhouse in Eagan, MN. After unsuccessfully attempting to sell it without a broker, I reached out to Katey. She provided a comprehensive market analysis for the property, including how she would market it and guidance in pricing. She quickly executed the marketing plan and kept me thoroughly informed every step of the way. Several offers were received from qualified buyers. From acceptance to closing, Katey and her team frequently informed and updated me -before, during, and after the closing. When my wife and I decided to sell our home in south Minneapolis, I again called Katey, and again she and her team exceeded all our expectations. Selling a house you have called home for over 50 years is a daunting task, physically and emotionally, and Katey got that. She thoroughly explained each step of the way, kept in close contact, addressed our questions and concerns very quickly, and her amazing team of photographers, publicists, media managers and communications specialists all helped make it as painless as possible. We elected to use the title and closing offices Katey works with daily and are glad we did. They were both very helpful and accommodating. We listed with Katey on June 28th, signed a top dollar purchase agreement on July 27th, and closed on September 4th! Without doubt, Katey Bean and her team of professionals will also do a great job for you, regardless of your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had an amazing experience with Katey Bean and strongly recommend her for any and all services. She excelled as our both relocation specialist and buyers agent, guiding us in our relocation from Florida to Minnesota and all the way to the closing on our perfect home. She provided valuable insight at very early stages of the search (remotely) to ensure our "look see" visits were efficient and fruitful, and once we were in full search mode in the area, was responsive, agile and adapted to our personal needs as we began seeing homes and preparing to make offers. Katey is not only highly skilled (the execution component of offering and transaction side was flawless) but she also looked out for her client's best interests every step of the way. And always with a personable smile and sense of humor.

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey took initiative from the moment I inquired online, and after our initial phone conversation, she understood my needs. Living out of state, I had to put my trust in Katey, and she delivered. Her knowledge of first steps and her quick responses and communication made for a seamless endeavor from beginning to end. The condo was listed within days of our first contact, and with many showings, Katey helped me navigate and properly negotiate between me and the prospective buyer, and with her expertise, follow through and make the sale. Katey provided suggestions on how to present the property, when and how to counter-offer, and in the end, provided advise on the final offer that landed the sale. She had my trust every inch of the way. I am grateful for Katey and her team for their professionalism, excellence, attention to detail, care and commitment to our personal needs. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you!

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey had successfully sold a neighboring home, and I was hopeful she could do the same for us. We met and discussed her approach for marketing the home. She had a plan for preparing the house for sale, when to list it, and the listing price. At each step, she was prompt, professional, and pleasant. We received multiple offers within days of the listing. Katey negotiated, and we accepted, a purchase agreement a few days later. I highly recommend Katey and her team!

ZillowVERIFIEDKatey helped me sell my family home under a very difficult and emotional time. She did so with grace and empathy, and at the same time with the most thorough professionalism, that I trusted her completely. She always made sure I understood and was happy with everything, and negotiated on my behalf so the house sold for above the asking price. A super fast sale in just over 24 hours! I whole-heartedly recommend Katey, and I feel so fortunate to have been able to have her on my side. She was like an angel.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe found the perfect home thanks to Jennifer Kotas with Katey Bean & Co.!!!! Never have we felt so taken care of, understood, and valued. Jennifer very quickly learned our aesthetic and non-negotiables and stopped at nothing to find homes for us to view that were in our price range and fit what we were looking for. She was so quick to respond that we were convinced she was psychic and was reading our minds. The entire process was so fast and painless and we could not be more grateful for everything the team did for us. From start to finish...seamless. We are very happy with the entire experience. Thank you Jen!!! James & Frank

ZillowVERIFIEDWe listed and sold my parents home recently with Katey. It was clear she had broad marketing reach as many showings resulted in a total of four offers for us to consider. Many surprises can pop up with real estate transactions and ours was no exception. Katey showed her experience and handled all of our communication promptly and gave us a sense of confidence she could answer and guide us through anything. Katey had Melanie Joseph from Great Northern Title execute our closing. Malanie was very organized and accommodated an additional meeting to create a needed notarized POA to finalize the sale. In summary we were extremely satisfied and plan to refer Katey to anyone looking for a great agent!
