A Splash of Color

But hat ne es

Ask

That splash of red fills only a small portion of this page. But it dominates your eye and your attention. Surveys show that color introduces realism, which invites participation. One study found that color ads generate 50% more inquiries than black and white ads.

REALTORS: Defending the Rights of Home Owners Since 1908. ®

The National Association of REALTORS® takes great pride in protecting the American Dream of home ownership. We feel that home ownership is under attack and being threatened for the first time in generations. Please join our efforts in making sure that elected officials and governmental bodies are aware of housing issues and how they affect all Americans. Our goal is to make every home owner and future home owner aware of the issues that currently surround home ownership. Help us defend the rights of home owners.

REALTOR OF THE MONTH! Real Estate has always been a passion of mine! I love houses & I love working with people! When I was growing up, my dad was a carpenter and our house was always in the midst of a project! I appreciate and enjoy the character of homes from the structure and architecture features to the interior design and landscaping. I spent five summers landscaping for a business out of Waseca and enjoyed every minute! Southern Minnesota has always been my home and I have a vast knowledge of this area. I grew up in Waseca and currently live in Janesville. I graduated from Minnesota State UniversityMankato with a degree in Marketing & Management. I enjoy helping clients see the potential in every home and guiding them through the buying and selling process. I am committed to working closely with my clients through continuous communication and on-going hard work. Unmatchable customer service in real estate is what I offer and I look forward to meeting and working with you soon! Call Molly Schroeder today. 507-461-1295
