Brama Real Estate Group – Experience | Faith | Integrity


Experience:

For the past quarter-century, I have proudly and with humility held the title of Licensed Real Estate Agent and Broker. I have been blessed with experience that spans various facets of the industry, including Existing Home Sales, Land Acquisition, Investment Properties, Luxury Real Estate, and New Construction. I am equally happy to work in every price range and with clients in various stages of life.  As a distinguished member of the Luxury Homes Division, I bear the honor of being a certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist.  Over this remarkable journey, I’ve had the privilege of providing professional real estate services to more than 1,200 cherished clients, comprising friends and family, resulting in the successful closure of over $250,000,000 in sales transactions.

I have also done remodeling on homes that I later have sold. I use my construction background to help clients in various ways: from repairing flashing, fixing sidewalk cracks, to putting in new deck posts!

Faith

My unwavering Christian faith serves as the bedrock of my work ethic and my commitment to clients and their families. In 2012, the Brama Real Estate Group came into existence. It was formed by a dynamic team including my esteemed Business Partner, Cheri Welle, our Licensed Director of Operations, Jordyn Welle, and the talented Realtor, Jen Stecker. At the heart of our operations are the core values of Integrity, Experience, and Faith, which resonate in every aspect of our work. Our diverse clientele extends across the Twin Cities and its surrounding suburbs, encompassing a wide spectrum of price ranges.

 

Integrity

In addition to having extensive experience in the Real Estate Industry, I’ve obtained a General Contractors License. My journey began as the Project Coordinator and Representative for a Custom Home Builder, where we realized the vision of 78 new homes. In 2006, I founded Genesis Construction, overseeing the design and construction of four distinctive Custom Homes. During the period spanning 2006 to 2012, we undertook significant renovation and remodeling projects for 70 homes. Today, I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to leverage this background in construction to better serve the current needs of my real estate clientele, continuously striving to enhance my expertise.


Adding to my repertoire of knowledge, I hold a Master’s Degree in Psychological Counseling, which enriches my ability to serve my real estate clients. This education equips me with a unique sense of awareness and understanding, particularly when navigating complex life circumstances entwined within a real estate transaction. Armed with this knowledge, I excel in effectively communicating with my clients and possess a sophisticated capacity to negotiate on their behalf.

Each day, I find profound enjoyment in my work, and I sincerely treasure the opportunities to assist anyone in their real estate endeavors. There’s no other profession that could bring me greater joy and satisfaction, as I consider myself incredibly fortunate to collaborate with such remarkable clients and their families.

The Bull: you might be asking yourself- why do they represent their group with a bull? Or, if you saw one of our signs and have now found yourself on our website- maybe you Googled “Who is that realtor with the bull logo?” or “Real Estate Bull”. The answer is multi-faceted, but the short way to explain it is a perfect collaboration of values, iconography, and real world history. The last name Brama, actually shares the name of a popular, real-world breed of North American bull. Drawing on this real-world connection, we are able to embody values of charging ahead for our clients, not being pushed around, and for anyone who messes with the bull (and by extension, our clients)…well you know how that goes. Family, strength, honor, and hard-work are all classic symbolic meanings of the Bull across cultures and history, and it also embodies a Brama.
