My wife and I chose Chad Schwendeman after having used other realtors in the past, we did so based on his reputation and his work ethic. Chad's office is on my way to and from work, I work 9-10 hours a days. I would see Chad's car in his office parking lot well after I returned home from my work and again on weekends. Chad has this personality presence that is professional, genuinely caring and kind. My wife and I would receive weekly up-dates on our property. Chad would personally reply to my e-mails and phone calls in a immediate fashion. I find this very uncommon today. During our selling process I felt like I could call Chad with a problem unrelated to my property and he would not only take the time but he would show the interest to listen. ( I did not test this out but I believe it to be true) Most important, my wife and I chose Chad because we had a time line in mind and we both thought Chad's team would serve our needs best. Chad was able to exceed our hope and expectation. I highly recommend Chad Schwendeman. Thank you again, Chad... Grant and Jan Wilcox Less

In all our dealings with Chad, he has been professional, honest and handles everything in a timely manner. Also, we thoroughly enjoyed the lovely evening at Prairie Bay. We will always deal with Chad and recommend him to friends and family. Thank you Chad for being one of the only honest and knowledgeable realtors we have had the pleasure to deal with. Having both those qualities is a rare commodity in a realtor. Ed and Judy Hall

We had our lake home on the market in 2012 from Memorial Day through Oct. with another realtor & never had one person so much as look at it. We contacted Chad, who got it back on the market in the dead of winter, the end of Jan. 2013 & we had a buyer by the end of March!!! We were amazed. We would absolutely recommend Chad as a realtor. He is thorough, competent & respectful.

Chad's marketing expertise is above and beyond in knowledge and service in this area. We were very pleased with him and his team in selling our home in 48 days! His marketing strategy and beautiful folders describing and displaying our home were very professional. Awesome job, Chad! Thanks to you and your team.

Chad and his team really went the extra mile to help us buy this home. If we had questions or concerns, they were always just a phone call or an email away. We had a couple of things that needed to be fixed before we actually purchased the home and Chad stayed on top of the issues until they could be resolved. When he had not heard from us for a day or two he even called us to be sure everything was moving ahead. We truly appreciated not just the service that we received but the manner in which we received it. There is a reason they are one of the best in the area! Less

I worked with Chad over the course of about three years in my search for a lake property in MN. My husband and I were very particular in what we wanted, and Chad was always very patient in his dealings with us even though I'm sure he, at times, felt frustrated. He was extremely responsive to our needs, and he always made time to meet with us at any property we wished to see. He was extrememly knowledgable about his work and the surrounding area. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for property in the Brainerd area. Less

Chad and his entire staff were extremely professional and responsive. We never had to worry what was going on with the sale of our property because they would give us updates as soon as they had information to share. Chad was able to negotiate the sale of our house without asking us to lower our price. He knew what our price point was and that?s what he got us. There was no pressure. I would highly recommend Chad for any real-estate buying or selling!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience in purchasing our new cabin in the Brainerd lakes area this spring. Chad is extremely responsive and knowledgable. He knows the lakes and the area so well that he was able to guide us with an expert hand through the decision process. He is also plesent to work with. At the end of our first day looking at properties Chad felt like a friend. Chad impressed us in so many ways but what I found so refreshing is the way he continued to work with us and for us well after the purchase agreement was signed. There are many communications and details between an accepted offer and the closing and Chad was on top of every one of them. We absolutely love our new cabin! And we recommend Chad without hesitation. Less

Chad was the second agent to take on a listing for my deceased father's home. He has a wonderful market approach far superior to any agent in that area in my opinion, He sold the house in 60 days and during that period had 7 more showings than the previous agent/company. I would highly recommend anyone selling or buying real estate in that area to sit down and talk to Chad first!

The reasons Chad is the top realtor in the Brainerd Lakes area is because he is very knowledegeable on the local real estate market, he employs a broad portfolio of leading edge marketing tools, and because he is so reponsive that he almost makes you feel like you are his only client. I would recommend him to anyone who is serious about selling (or buying) in this difficult real estate market.

We used Chad to sell our home in a market that was very difficult to sell in and overrun with homes in our price range. Chad told us he would get it sold quickly and he did so in an amazing short amount of time - 2 months. I have worked with many agents in the past but Chad is in a league all his own. Both my wife and I would highly recommend using him to represent you in either buying or selling a house. You will be glad you did.

As a single woman purchasing her first home I was extremely nervous about finding a realtor that would treat me with respect, keep my best interest in mind and answer any questions I had. Chad met all of those expectations and more. He was honest about properties and helped narrow down my search based on areas that he felt would be safest for me. He was also quick to answer my questions, and didn?t make me feel like I was asking ?dumb? questions; he exceeded my expectations!

Chad is very knowledgeable about the Brainerd Lakes area and market. He is very dedicated to helping his clients sell and buy homes. He is quick to reply to every email and phone call. In fact, he negotiated the sale of our home while on vacation with his family, putting just as much time and effort into the process as he would have while working from his office. I would definitely use his services again, and I would highly recommend him to family and friends.
