Minnesota Real Estate Playbook: A Tailored Guide for Buyers & Sellers

By Mark Callender

Hello, my name is Mark Callender and I am a licensed real estate agent with RE/MAX Results. Because I have been helping families buy and sell their homes for more than 18 years, I am now helping their children to buy their first homes and their parents to downsize. No matter the direction you’re moving, my goal is to make the process as calm and enjoyable as it can be.

Most buyers and sellers I work with share one common goal: they want to feel informed and confident throughout the entire process. Whether you’re preparing to list your home or getting ready to buy, there’s a lot to manage, and it’s completely normal to feel uncertain at times. That’s precisely why I’ve created custom buyer and seller guides, designed to give you clarity, save you time, and make the experience smoother from start to finish.

These guides aren’t the generic ones you see online. They’re not pulled from a website or created for a broad audience. Instead, they’re built specifically for how I work and how I serve my clients. Every section is based on real questions and experiences I’ve had over the past 24 years in real estate, as my goal was to create something that would walk you through each step clearly and simply, while also providing the kind of insight you don’t get from a generic handout.

Benefits both buyers and sellers. If you’re buying, the guide explains the full process, from getting pre-approved to what to expect on closing day. If you’re selling, it covers how to price your home, what prep work makes the most significant difference, and how the offer and escrow process work. It’s all designed to help you understand what’s coming next and what your options are at each step.

One of the biggest benefits of using a custom guide is that it keeps you informed without needing to rely on a quick phone call or an online search. Of course, I’m always available if you need anything, but the guide is there when you want to double-check something or review next steps on your own time.

I also offer flexibility. If your situation is unique or you’re navigating something a little more complex, I can tailor the experience and provide extra guidance to match your needs. This is just one of the many ways I invest in my clients and ensure you feel supported throughout the entire process.

If you’d like a copy of the buyer or seller guide, I can send you a digital version by email or mail a printed copy to you. Just let me know what works best for you. If you have questions or are considering a move, feel free to call or text me at 612-961-9448 or email me at Mark@MarkCallenderHomes.com. I’m here to help you stay informed and make confident decisions, whether you’re buying your first home or preparing to sell your current one.
