Benjamin Johnson

"Ben is the real estate agent everyone needs to have in their speed dial. If you need a responsive, honest, straight shooter with the no non-sense attitude and timely action, he is your guy. He will do everything to take the hassle out of your search and will make it actually a pleasing experience to see the properties that would fit your needs and your budget, and after a decision is made, to close the deal for your dream place. He listens, analyzes, and helps you understand your priorities all the way from the first stages- when you do not even know what you need- to the final stagewhen you are closing. If your concern is having an ethical representative of your needs, and means; call nobody else."

"Ben and his group bent over backwards to make the buying of our new home happen. At every turn, I always knew that we were in good hands. Selling and buying homes can always be tricky, as there is emotion and often times big money involved which can cloud what is REALLY happening, but Ben and his team were nothing but truthful and nothing but the best."

" Ben is detail-oriented realtor attentive to your needs and expectations. He makes purchasing a home a simple process, leaving you feeling confident in your investment."

"Selling your home can be stressful and confusing, particularly when it comes to negotiating with potential Buyers. That said, Ben made it a relatively painless experience by telling me what I needed to know and offering advice that was clearly rooted in experience. Very satisfied with the entire process."

"Ben handles his clients with extreme professionalism. On top of that he makes the process of buying or selling fun. My wife and I plan on using him in the near future for our next home."

" I wish there were more of Ben in our office. Intelligent, knowledgeable, ambitious, hard-working, professional and most important for someone in sales, he's a helluva nice guy. Ben doesn't wait to be helped, and doesn't come to work with a sense of entitlement. If he doesn't know it, he learns it. If he senses another opinion is in order, he seeks it. If it needs to be done, he does it."

"Ben is very responsible and very knowledgeable about the current trends and current best practices in real estate. He is always thinking of his clients first and made sure that he steered me toward the decision that best suited my needs, not his. Ben still encompasses and embraces the art of customer service which sadly, is largely forgotten by most."

"Real estate agents all owe a lot to Ben for helping undo the stereotype. Ben is more guide than salesman and my first impressions of him as such followed through the entire process. Recommend him? Sure. Nominate him to train his fellow brothers and sisters of the trade how it should be done? Absolutely."

"It took the Ben Johnson Group to broaden my understanding about buying real estate. I use to think it was simply buying the right house in the neighborhood you want, at the right price. That's 80% of it. It's the other 20% that separates the Ben Johnson Group from the other realtors. Ben knows his markets, the idiosyncrasies of those markets, how the bank operate, how the Brokersoperate and more importantly, those critical issues that determine if you forward makes sense. His experience knowledge, wisdom and superb supporting team, makes Ben the go to guy."

"Our deal was pretty unconventional due to us living across the country at the time. We were buying a home without actually seeing it. The Ben Johnson Group at Edina Realty worked tirelessly with us and all involved to get this done. We had some very unique challenges that had to be overcome and they met them head on. Ben, Kyla & Dion were absolutely wonderful to deal with."

"Ben was amazing throughout the entire process of purchasing my families home as a first time home buyer. We purchased in 2011 and the home was a short sale. Ben counseled us through the entire process and kept us up to date through a very difficult sale with a LOT of hoops to jump through. We probably looked at 30 homes with Ben before we saw ours, and he was always ready and willing to get together, no matter the house, no matter how crazy the home looked, just for us to find the perfect home. As first time home buyers he took us through the entire process, was always great with questions and concerns and always very punctual getting back to us with those questions and concerns. I have recommended Ben to friends and family and will continue to recommend him to anyone that wants a realtor that is willing to go the extra mile for his clients."Ryan

"Ben has helped me with about 20 transactions in the past few years. His advice has saved me money both as a Buyer and a Seller. Professional, knowledgeable and honest. Highly recommended."

"Ben has helped me with multiple real estate transactions. I have always had great experiences. He knows the areas very well. He is familiar with all types of transactions include REO, short sales, conventional and first time home buyers. He really does make the transaction go smoothly and takes stress off the Buyers and Sellers."

" Ben was flexible with timing and the searching process. He helped us through the many ideas that we had along the way. We found a home, made and offer and it was countered. He helped us stay strong with the initial offer and we got our home for the price we wanted. Thanks Ben!"

"I have used many realtors during my lifetime. Ben is very knowledgeable and conscience. He communicates well. I have referred others to him and will continue to do so."

"Ben helped me build a home. While the experience was frustrating at times, he was very active throughout the process and I always felt he was looking out for my best interest."

"From the first meeting, to the closing date of my sale, Ben did an excellent job. His knowledge of the real estate market was invaluable and I have no doubt was the reason my sale experience was so great. What really stood out was the attention to detail that Ben provided. Recommending small changes that I would have overlooked or not even thought of that made my listing stand out. Ben was timely with responses, and maintained the perfect level of communication throughout the process making sure I was never left wondering what was happening. I will be using Ben to purchase my next home, and should I ever have a need to sell again, he will be my first call"

"Ben and his staff were extremely helpful in closing on my condo recently. They always put me first and dealt with any lender issues head on. I appreciate all their hard work and I will be using them again in the future."
