Second-time buyers prefer Exclusive Buyer Agents. They've learned it's a smarter way to buy homes.

We should talk now.

Tim and The Home Buyers were tireless in helping us navigate the purchase of my mother's new condo. We had so many questions and needed support relocating this lovely older lady! They always responded quickly and were extremely helpful and professional. Thank you!

Patricia H.

Over 8 years ago Tim helped us buy our first home. We used him again while buying our second home because he was excellent to work with, very knowledgeable, pays attention to details, and helps prevent emotional decisions overriding smart ones! Looking at houses can become overwhelming, so it was so helpful to lean on Tim's expertise.

We had a great experience working with The Home Buyers! Tim and Kathryn were the best! They were incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, and quick to respond to our many questions. They were with us through the entire home buying process and it truly felt like they had our best interests in mind. We would highly recommend working with The Home Buyers!

Andrew B.

We are very fortunate to find Tim Walters for our very first home search and we had an opportunity again to work with him for our new second home. Tim went over and above what we would have asked for, he always worked in the best interest of the buyer and rightly advised us on properties / locations that he would not prefer. I cannot over-recommend to have a realtor who can represent the buyer only to be on your side when you buy your home. We highly recommend Tim Walters if you are looking for a buyer only realtor who can represent you and keep your interests in mind in all the search and negotiations. We are super happy with Tim's outstanding work and will definitely call him again if we end up buying any more properties :-)

Joseph J.

We worked with Tim for both of our home purchases, 12 years apart, and trust him completely. He is very knowledgeable and has many industry connections that helped make the whole process as smooth as it could be.

Andrew L-B.

Working with the Home Buyers was an all-around great experience. As exclusive buyers, we knew they had our interests at heart, and that helped us purchase a great home with confidence. Tim was attentive, available, and collaborative in every aspect of the process, from the search to inspections, and through to closing. We really appreciated his wealth of experience and professionalism. 5 Stars!

Drew W.

It was a wonderful experience working with Tim and his team members. Tim is a professional and responsive realtor. He would answer the phone or emails on time, and did not push us on making decisions. It is a tough market for buyers now (most of properties are sold in two days), but Tim and his team memebers arranged the showings very well. We got our offer accepted in two weeks, thanks to their great help! One unique feature of The Home Buyers is that they only serve as buyers' agents, which means you never need to worry about dual-agent, and they will always protect you buyers during the home purchase!

Xiaodong M.

I feel very fortunate to have worked with Tim and Kathryn for my first home purchase. And as exclusive buyers agents, I never had to wonder whether they had my best interests at heart. Not only were they incredibly responsive, informative, and supportive, but they truly served as my representatives throughout an unfamiliar process. Highly recommend!

Lisa M.

We highly recommend The Home Buyers for anyone looking to buy their next place. We are repeat customers. Tim worked with us in both 2009 and 2021/22! He got us great prices each time and gave us proactive, sound advice. He knows a lot about the whole process start to finish, and how to read the situation in terms of how it will affect us as buyers. He helped us avoid pitfalls we would have later regretted. Thanks again Tim!

Wendy L-B.

Tim & Kathryn did a great job. I always felt represented and informed throughout the entire process. I look forward to future purchases with the both of them.

Grant S.

We recently purchased a house in a very competitive market. We were very pleased with Tim and Kathryn's professional style. They were available to us around the clock, even while on vacation! We couldn't have moved to the Twin Cities without their services.

Tim H.

Ron with The Home Buyers group is amazing. He’s an all around great guy. Knowledgeable, genuine, professional, and made the process fun! We enjoyed his laid back approach and never felt rushed or pushed into making an offer. He provided us facts and allowed us to decide when to make an offer. He was crazy responsive and stays in touch to this day.

Kristy W.

I have been a New Jersey Real Estate broker for 25 years, so when I became a buyer, I knew that exclusive buyer representation was the way to go. An exclusive buyers' agent has only one thought: the client comes first. Tim and Kathryn listened and focused on our needs. When we decided to make an offer, they guided us to a smooth closing. We are very happy.

Jim B.

The Home Buyers did a great job of guiding me through the process. Communication was always honest and prompt. Very nice to have someone with so much experience and insight. Whole process went very smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend working with The Home Buyers (especially if you are a first time homebuyer).

Andrew S.

Tim really guided us through the process at every step and was full of valuable advice. Communication was always honest and prompt, and he was flexible in working with our schedule. He helped us avoid some pitfalls that would have ended up costing us big, and helped us land the house we dreamed of. Highly recommend working with Tim, you won't regret it!

Daniel F.

Tim was responsive, friendly, and full of information on what to do, what not to do, what options we had, and why. Together, The Home Buyers helped us find a great home in our preferred neighborhood and Tim helped us negotiate a much better price than what was listed.

Rogelio P.

Tim Walters and his team are amazing to work with. Tim has always been there when we needed him and has bent over backwards to take care of us countless times. When something doesn't seem right to him he is not afraid to get to the bottom of it and represent our best interests.

Carrie S.

Beyond Impressed. I would highly recommend working with Tim. He is very knowledgeable and has the buyers best interest in mind. Most agents are only after a commission. Working with an exclusive buyer's agent was the best decision my family made. He catered to our needs and assisted us in our negotiating process to purchase a home with equity. He is very patient and attentive. He knows what to look for in making a sound investment and wise purchase.

We recently worked with Tim Walters to purchase our first home and would highly recommend him for your next home purchase. As first-time home buyers we had a lot of questions and Tim was always incredibly responsive to answer them and make sure we fully understood every step in the process. … Tim is passionate about being an advocate for the buyer and we truly felt that. During showings my husband and I appreciated Tim’s honesty. He never tried to sugarcoat anything to make a sale, he would point out negative things we may not have noticed, and we trusted him as a rational voice in what can be an emotional decision. We saw several homes and Tim was always able to fit us into his schedule and work with the sellers’ agents to get us in for a showing. In fact, there was extremely high interest in the home that we ultimately purchased – there were no available showings, but Tim was able to work with the sellers’ agent to squeeze us in. With Tim’s guidance and advice, we had our offer accepted on that home, which had 9 offers over list price, and we couldn’t be happier! Even after close we are still reaping the benefits of working with Tim as we are doing some updates and Tim was able to refer us to a wholesaler to get us the best prices. Do not hesitate to hire Tim or his company, you will not regret it!

We are so glad we chose to work with The Home Buyers for our condo purchase. Tim and Kathryn responded quickly and were very informative when we had questions. As exclusive buyer’s agents, they had our best interests in mind throughout the process. Would not do it any other way. Thank you! Highly recommended.

We were extremely pleased with our experience with The Home Buyers! We were first time buyers from out of state and came across The Home Buyers in our search for a realtor. In our first conversations, Tim Walters familiarized us with the local market while working with us to figure out what was really important to us in a home, as well as a neighborhood. He planned around our travel itinerary to make the most efficient use of our limited time in Minneapolis, showing us a large number of homes that met our criteria. He guided us through the home viewings, educating us about what to look for in the construction of the properties and the pros and cons of potential properties. As a Buyers Only agent, he could really focus on a property from our buyers perspective, looking out for our best interest, rather than from the seller's perspective to maximize sale price. On top of all this, Tim was able to share a lot of practical home buying advice, pointing out what made each home a good or bad investment or potential issues. In fact, one of the best parts of working with The Home Buyers was how we could focus on finding the right home for our family, while Tim guided us on the financials and working with us to get the best price for the home. We were nervous about the whole process of buying from out of state, but with Tim and The Home Buyers attention to detail and advocacy for our interests, we were amazed at how stress-free and exciting it was to be able to find our new home.
