My family currently lives in the Hugo/Lino Lakes area and our children attend school in the White Bear Lake district. (I have also lived in both North Branch and Shoreview.) Before moving to residential real estate, I loved my time working in commercial real estate in downtown Minneapolis.
It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information and solid advice. I believe you will find my market research and knowledge to be superior to the average agent but more importantly, I hope you appreciate the individual planning and attention I give to every client.
Here are some of the things I can do for you:
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, refer top industry professionals, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close - and beyond.
Consult on Home Selling Strategy
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. Together, we can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast. Most importantly, we will make a plan unique to your situation.
Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home. When something hits the market matching your criteria, you can bet I will send it to you immediately!
Consult on Home Buying Process
Most people buy on emotion and that is great because it allows people to experience that thrill and excitement! However, we don't want this to end up in a decision you will regret down the road so let me help you with careful planning to ensure that you are ready to make a good decision when the right house comes along.
If you are both Buying and Selling, it's important that your REALTOR® makes a strategy that is specific to your situation. Working on both transactions at the same time can take delicate balance and requires you to form a close enough relationship with your agent that together you achieve your goals.

She brings an extended wealth of knowledge and value to any buyer/seller transaction. Sarah was able to assist us in selling our home, property and finding us a new home all in just a matter of months. Sarah works quickly and gets the deals done leaving nothing behind. During this process she will also keep your best interests in mind making sure you are making the right decision. I highly recommend Sarah as a preferred agent to anyone."
-John Kretschmer, Client
" We have sold two homes and bought our dream home with Sarah. The homes we sold, Sarah was able to sell both for over asking price in less than a week! She is AMAZING! Sarah works tirelessly to make sure you are represented in the upmost professional way. I am amazed at her work commitment- I swear she never stops working!! She is very knowledgable, accommodating, very professional, and is truly the best!!"
-Stacie Ferrence, Client
"For a first time home buyer I was a little lost and didn't know exactly what I was doing.... I needed some serious direction. Sarah was excellent, always on top of things and one step ahead. She was full of knowledge when it came to so many things, especially the home buying process, which is what I needed. At times I feel she was extremely patient with the questions and concerns that myself and family had. We looked at a ton of homes for sale, which took up a lot of time and energy on Sarah's part. I was some-what picky on what I wanted and what I was looking for in a first home and I can see how challenging it could be on a realtor, but not for Sarah. If you are a person that is looking for a real go-getter when it comes to finding you exactly what you are looking for, Sarah Marrinan. "
-Ashlee, Client
"Sarah is a very hard-working trustworthy real estate agent! I'm so grateful I had the pleasure working with her! She's very professional and knows her job well. I didn't realize how stressful selling your home can be but, she put my mind at ease and explained the process as we went along. She always listened to my concerns and answered any questions I had. She also found me the perfect home for me and my family!!! I'm so glad I found her!"
