ZillowVERIFIEDWe have had two great experiences with the Schatz team and I could not be more impressed with their entire group. In 2015 Mike helped us buy our first home. He was so patient and knowledgeable he took the time to help my wife and I found the ideal first home at a great deal.Then this year Riley helped us sell this home and find a new one. He had the house sold in under 48 hours and over asking price. Thankfully Mike had done such a good job negotiating the home purchase and giving us advice along the way of home improvements that would drive the home value we made a huge profit.Thanks so much to the whole Schatz team, I would encourage everyone to work with them!

ZillowVERIFIED I purchase my first home 9 years ago and Mike Schatz was my agent. At that time I did not know much about local market. Especially I had very limited knowledge about single detached home. As a foreign national person, I actually had no experience about American single detached home. Mike gave a lot information about the home and he was very patient and waited until we could find a home that we really liked. That home turned out to be a very nice home as we enjoyed living in the home over the last 9 years. I recently move to a new home as I could afford to move to a newly built home. Mike was my agent again for home selling and purchasing. I could sell my home at good price since my old home had good value and now we live in a nice home. We really like our new home. The selling and purchasing process was done without much problem. I purchase my home first and put my old home in the market after I signed purchasing agreement. I just has one month overlap between the 2 closings. It saved my money for this transition a lot and also I could do all these transactions without getting much stress.

ZillowVERIFIED I gave them early info on a foreclosed home that i wanted to bid on. They originally were going to watch for it to go on the market. I contacted them, both Mike Schatz and a couple associates to follow up. Never heard from them again and the property got listed, then auctioned off. I would never contact them again for anything. A waste if my time.

ZillowVERIFIED I've worked with Mike and his team for a number of years looking for my first house. During this time I was in and out of the market but whenever I asked Mike for help he was always there. He is definitely the best agent I've ever known or heard of. In fact, he was recommended me by a friend of mine who was equally impressed with Mike and his team. He is like a walking encyclopedia of everything related to homes. If you need an advice or have a question - Mike has the answer. Right from the start if you are looking for a new home he'd talk to you about the areas you are interested in, give you suggestions, and be helping you find your house. Once you have something in mind, Mike or someone from his team would schedule showings, even on a very short notice. Then Mike would walk you through the houses each time pointing out at potential problems and giving you tons of useful tips. He never tries to sell you something but is always looking for what would be the best for you. Finally, when it comes to negotiating, writing an offer, etc. Mike is superb at all of those steps! You can rest assured he always protects your interests. Also for a house inspection he can suggest a good inspector and then himself do the final walk through without missing any tiny detail. He is virtually like a detective working with you! That is what happened to me when I finally got my first house in Sep 2015. I can't be happier than this and most of it is due to Mike and his team. The good thing is though even after you got your house Mike would still be around if you need help with a house issue or need an advice. For example, I've got a leaky water softener that was repaired just before I closed on the house. So I called Mike and he took care of it sending the same contractor who fixed it the first time. They guy came in right away and took care of the problem and didn't cost me a thing. I'm really grateful to Mike and his team for all the help. Way to go guys, you are the best! So if you every need a real estate agent for anything don't look further and just give Mike a call - you won't regret, I promise!

ZillowVERIFIED The Schatz Team is the very best! Each member of the team has a certain gift and expertise that they bring to the experience. It took us awhile before we were able to purchase a home after a cross-country relocation but even prior to formally starting the house hunting process they were helpful and informative. Each team member really goes the extra mile to make you feel comfortable and supported. They are highly knowledgeable and truly know the business from the inside out. Every step of the way I knew they had our best interest in mind. I would highly recommend them to anyone. In fact, we chose them because they assisted with the sale of my great aunts home several years ago. Since then, they have treated our whole family like we are a part of their own! Go with the Schatz team, you can't go wrong!

ZillowVERIFIED The Schatz team helped us sell and buy a house. I had worked with them on my first home purchase. I returned to them to help me sell my first house (and buy my second) because they are, flat out, phenomenal. Their expertise, advice, and professionalism are top notch. They are calming, trustworthy, and have proven that they know how to go to bat for their clients. Truly realtors for life!

ZillowVERIFIED When I hired Mike and Angela, I hired a whole team. They are honest, thorough, smart, and very good at what they do. We looked at dozens of homes before we found the right one. They were tirelessly helpful and happy to do it. They would let us know what potential drawbacks a house might have, what upgrades we could do, and what would help with our resale when the time came. I used them to sell my home too. I will use them again and I will recommend them with gusto.

ZillowVERIFIED I recently sold my home in Eden Prairie on relatively short notice. I reached out to Angela since she helped me buy the home 13 years ago! I was completely in the dark as to the home selling process, and Angela was very helpful at walking me through everything that needed to happen. She made a lot of suggestions that made the process easier -- recommendations for service providers, and even managing the closing on my behalf. I actually had already moved away from Minnesota when the house went on the market, and Angela and Ted managed the entire process in my absence. They kept me in the loop, but didn't require me to be waiting by the phone -- which was really helpful as I was starting a new job that week. The sale went through faster and easier than I could have imagined! The Schatz team really treat their clients like people, not numbers, and were helpful as I was going through major life transition. I truly trusted their advice and their ability to manage the process on my behalf. Thanks Angela and Ted!

ZillowVERIFIED I recently sold my house with the help of the Mike Schatz team and now as I look back at the experience, I really have a good feeling about everything they did to lead to such a successful sale. Some of the things that were pleasant surprises include the depth of the market analysis, the guidance prepping the house, and their great organization. Their research really helped get the pricing, timing and prepping exactly right and led to a quick set of offers. Better yet, they made the paperwork and everything up through the closing extremely organized and smooth. I always felt informed and prepared for every step. The attention to research, planning and organization easily earns 5 stars.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike and the Schatz Team helped us sell our house before we even had a chance to list our home. They worked with us very closely during the negotiation process, and sale of our house felt like a win-win situation for everyone involved. We've also used them for the purchase of our new house. This process has been far more involved, and it's clearly shown us that not all realtors are created equal. Thankfully the Schatz Team was on our side to help both sides navigate the ever changing rules and regulations of real estate. They continue to proactively assist us in our transition to our new home. If/when we ever choose to move again, we will only consider the Schatz Team.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike and the team helped us navigate through our first home buy...we really weren't sure where to start or what we wanted, but they guided us through the entire process from A-Z. I think we made things interesting for them sometimes, but they were extremely patient and informative. Because of that, we ultimately ended up with a terrific home that far exceeded our expectations!

We really appreciated that they never pressured us and they were always very patient, as we were first time home buyers. We would definitely use the Shatz team again and would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a property.

ZillowVERIFIED The Schatz Group was amazing! Working as a team, someone is always available. They return calls within minutes. They patiently showed us so many homes, always offering their valuable insight on the pros and cons of each, and recognizing what would work for us & our lifestyle & plans, even when we had not yet thought of some of those things ourselves. They tailored their approach to meet our needs and requirements and always met & even exceeded our every hope & expectation. We could not have done better! Our eternal gratitude to the entire team!!!!

Review for Member: Mike Schatz
ZillowVERIFIED We just closed on a new home with the Schatz Real Estate Group. Mikeand Angela and their team exceeded our expectations in every area. Our situation was complex, involving a foreclosure, short sale, and multiple family members, and they handled it with ease. Their expertise in foreclosures and short sales was invaluable and helped us to navigate through these complex waters with confidence. Their service was exceptional. From the day we started looking at homes to working with the banks on accepting our offer, they treated us like we were their top customer. But what made the entire process over the top was how much they truly cared and the many ways they went out of their way to help us get to the end destination. We never felt like they were "selling" us a house and always trusted that they had our best interest in mind. It is rare these days to find a business that exceeds expectations in every area. Schatz Real Estate Group is one of those few. I highly recommend working with them.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike helped me buy a townhouse that wasn't listed on the market. He also showed me some other houses I was interested in, all with good input but never any pressure to do things his way or go in a direction I didn't want. He was helpful and friendly and also well-liked by the seller. Compared to experiences I've heard from other people's agents, I now know what a gem the Schatz team is.

They continue to provide help through their network of professional if we ever have a project to tackle. They stay in touch and are always willing to help with any question we have in regards to the real estate market.I would highly recommend them to anyone as well as use them in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED As a first time home buyer I am very, very grateful to have worked with the Schatz team. They showed me several houses and pointed out ALL the red flags to each house so I could make an informed decision. What a relief to know your Real Estate Agent is on your side for the long term, and not trying to push a quick sale. I have recommended them to all of my friends looking to buy homes without hesitation because their follow up has been outstanding after the closing.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike & Angela are top notch realtors who truly love what they do, have the utmost respect for their clients (they treat us like family!), and bring decades of experience to bear to help you get the most for your money or most for your home!! We have bought and sold several houses with them over the last decade and really appreciated their experience with distressed properties on our last home purchase. They were with us every step of the way and even had arranged for us to rent a 'backup' home when it looked like our purchase was not going to go through - of course through their skillful, tireless negotiation we were able to close the deal and move in on schedule! We respect them as business people and appreciate them as friends!

ZillowVERIFIED Mike Schatz has been a realtor in the twin cities for a very long time and it shows. He is trustworthy and extremely knowledgable about homes. He is very thorough when looking at a house with his clients and is patient in helping you find a solid home that suits you.Also, because of this knowledge, he is an awesome agent when it's time to sell. He is an excellent resource and guide in preparing your home for putting it on the market.Mike follows through, is always available when needed, and treats you as well as he would a great friend (which you end up being when the process is finished). He also has a great group of realtors working with him in the Schatz Team.

Review for Member: Mike Schatz
ZillowVERIFIED Mike and the Schatz Group far exceeded our expectations. Mike/Group's knowledge of the Minneapolis housing market was especially helpful. As we viewed properties, Mike/Group asked pertinent questions and offered helpful hints as to whether or not a property met our needs/expectations. Equally important was Mike/Group's ability to pick out structural flaws, ranging from such things as uneven floors to the thickness of wood flooring. When we settled on a property we decided we to make some constructional changes. Mike/Group provided names of reputable contractors and potential price ranges. Based upon the suggestion of a home inspector, also recommended by Mike/Group, we wanted a blower fan installed on the fireplace. Mike found the correct part and made a special trip to personally install the part. Because purchasing a property in an association was totally new to us, we asked Mike/Group to review the association by-laws and financial status. A complete and easy to understand analysis was provided. In short, we relied heavily upon Mike/Group for the entire purchasing process. We found Mike/Group to be totally honest and trustworthy. Without hesitation, we would use Mike/Group again should the occasion ever arise.

ZillowVERIFIED I can not rave enough about Mike Schatz and the Schatz Reality Team. My home shopping came at a very stressful time in my life. The Schatz family not only listened to my needs and wants and showed me the homes that were in my price range, but also genuinely cared that I was happy with the process and the results. Mike worked extra hard to meet my demands that included a time crunch for my closing. I have worked with three other realtors in home purchases and sales in my past and I can honestly say I would never work with any one other than Mike Schatz!

ZillowVERIFIED I work exclusively with Mike and the Schatz team on all my real estate transactions. They are always available to meet my needs and answer my questions. They really go above and beyond their normal duty as real estate agents in providing excellent service. In addition to being knowledgeable about real estate matters, Mike is a great source for home inspection/maintenance issues. He is like a real estate agent/general contractor in one. I would (and do) definitely recommend Schatz Real Estate to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike is not only a great agent but a good friend who has been helpful in many areas outside of buying a home. I own rental property and he has been a great source for me with answers to any questions and recommending referrals. If someone is looking for an agent that is knowledgable, works hard and puts there clients first I recommend Schatz Real Estate.

ZillowVERIFIED I'm not someone who easily rates anyone, or anything, as the absolute best on a fixed scale - there is always room for improvement. But in this case, Mike and Angela have earned it, without question. Mike personally cares about his clients' real estate decisions as much as they do, which is rare. Around 2006, they helped me buy and/or sell a home for the 5th time. And, when I need to do it again, Mike and the Schatz Team will be my first and only call.
