class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>After marrying the \u201clove of her life\u201d in 1990, Detweiler spent the next several years packing and unpacking as her husband, Rudy, was transferred from one locale to another. While moving from Ohio to Michigan back to Ohio to Illinois and then back again to Ohio before finally settling down in Delano, Minnesota, the couple grew their closeknit family one son at a time.<\/p><p>\u201cAfter our first son was born, I decided to be a stay-at-home mom,\u201d says Detweiler. Yet even then she balanced family life with a part-time bookkeeping job. \u201cNeedless to say, there was a lot going on. My life as a mom was very full and demanding as my husband\u2019s job required quite a bit of traveling.\u201d<\/p><p>After settling into their \u201cforever home\u201d in Delano, Detweiler was ready for a new challenge. \u201cBy that time, our oldest was a freshman in high school and our youngest was a kindergartner,\u201d she says. \u201cI started working at the school helping with the Special Ed area. After a couple years of that, I decided I wanted to get my real estate license.\u201d<\/p><p>Real estate was not a spur-of-the-moment idea for Detweiler. Not surprisingly, given all her years of relocating and house-hunting for an expanding family, this was a career she had considered for a long time. Moreover, her interests, talent and skillset also seemed to be an ideal fit.<\/p><p>\u201cWhat real estate did for me was take everything that I love to do and put in all in one box,\u201d she says. \u201cI love to work with people, I love numbers and I originally was planning on going to school for interior design so real estate allows me to combine and enjoy all of these facets of my life.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-126f4954 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"126f4954\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-491aed18\" data-id=\"491aed18\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-514bc996 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"514bc996\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">NEW HORIZONS\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-29b3ec1c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"29b3ec1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>After getting her license in 2012 the energetic mom began interviewing with various brokerages. \u201cI decided to go with one of the smaller companies when I first started out,\u201d says Detweiler. \u201cI was with another big brand in Delano for about five years. In 2017, I tried another big brand, however, neither were just right. It was soon after that, I determined I needed my own office and team, so that I could create my own culture and do things the way I believed they should be done.\u201d<\/p><p>A thorough and intensive search eventually led her to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices North Properties. \u201cI interviewed with every company that I could and that\u2019s how I ended up, quite happily, with BHHS and building my team The Realty Lab. It\u2019s a really great fit!\u201d<\/p><p>Staying close to home, Detweiler found a perfect location in Delano for her new office.<\/p><p>\u201cWe set up initially in a model home for about a month while we began renovating the new office,\u201d she says. \u201cMy vision was boutique style. It\u2019s an old, historical building with a lot of character and we receive so many compliments. Our location and interests keep us very involved in the community, we hold many events here.<\/p><p>\u201cWe\u2019ve hosted several after-hours events for the Delano Chamber of Commerce where we provide music and catering,\u201d she adds. \u201cAlso, we open up our back rooms for smaller gatherings such as bible study and book club groups.\u201d<\/p><p>Being involved in her community wasn\u2019t anything new for this busy mom\/entrepreneur, as soon as the young family settled in Delano in 2007, Detweiler and her family quickly made this new community their home, becoming involved with their church, school and sports.

You didn\u2019t have so much competition. They seemed to shy away during the recession and as the market started coming back, a new serge of new licensees began coming on board.<\/p><p>\u201cOne thing I always remembered was what my mentor told me when I was just starting out,\u201d she adds. \u201cShe said to give it three years and that was something that just stuck in my head. So, I worked really hard for three years focusing on learning as much as I could and building my business. It was slow at first, but I stayed focused and it gradually started to come together.\u201d<\/p><p>All agents have their own way of gauging the success of their business, but Detweiler\u2019s barometer was rather unique.<\/p><p>\u201cMy files are color-coded,\u201d she says. \u201cAt the outset I decided that my buyer files would be blue, and my listing files would be green. I keep them right on top of my desk where I can always see them, and they are top of mind. As a new agent, all my files were blue. That\u2019s pretty standard, as a new agent typically all your clients are buyers and you\u2019re just running around like crazy.<\/p><p>\u201cSo, my goal was to have a listing. I just wanted to see my name on a For Sale sign,\u201d she continues with a small chuckle. \u201cOf course, as time went by, I got the first listing and the next and the next. At about the three-year mark I looked up at my files and realized they were mostly green! It hit me that I had turned the corner. That\u2019s when I believed I was doing things right.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6d77b3bf elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6d77b3bf\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2983df35\" data-id=\"2983df35\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b6c119c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b6c119c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"266\" src=\"https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-1024x266.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5155\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-1024x266.png 1024w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-300x78.png 300w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-768x199.png 768w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-1536x398.png 1536w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-750x195.png 750w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota-1140x296.png 1140w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/attorney-at-law-magazine-minnesota.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c964009 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c964009\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a22f5ca\" data-id=\"a22f5ca\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02aaa4d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"02aaa4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">WHITE GLOVE SERVICE\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d22cabf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d22cabf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>While she\u2019s enjoying undeniable success today, Detweiler is not one to rest on her laurels but continues to set the bar higher. Now she says her focus is on, \u201cWhat can we do better? What can we offer our clients that other agents might not?\u201d<\/p><p>The answer lies in her unique brand of service forged from her keen aptitude for business, deep-seated work ethic and inherent compassion. This translates to superior service to her clients.<\/p><p>\u201cWe provide what I like to call, White Glove Service to every client,\u201d she says. \u201cWhen I list a home, I take my time and do things right. I know what buyers are looking for so if they are going to come in and expect a discount then we haven\u2019t done our job. If we can circumvent that by spending a couple hundred dollars, then let\u2019s do that.<\/p><p>\u201cThat\u2019s the first part of it,\u201d Detweiler continues. \u201cWe show them our whole marketing program with a goal of getting top dollar in the shortest amount of time. I\u2019m always very cost aware, and never expect sellers to put a lot of money into prepping, but some of the least expensive small fixes can result in a substantially higher sale.\u201d<\/p><p>Blessed with an artistic eye and a natural inclination for design, Detweiler also can influence a home\u2019s curb-appeal and initial impression on buyers by offering sellers tips on how to stage or present their home in the best possible light.<\/p><p>\u201cUltimately, my clients become good friends, almost like family,\u201d she says. \u201cSince I\u2019m a transplant myself, I understand how it feels to start over and I make sure to invite them to events and stay in touch long after the sale. I truly value those relationships. I tell new agents, it\u2019s not about the money it\u2019s about the people and if you\u2019re only in it for the money you\u2019re in real estate for the wrong reason.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cc7d637 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cc7d637\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3b11513\" data-id=\"3b11513\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45bf7388 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"45bf7388\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-683x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5145\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-1367x2048.jpg 1367w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-750x1124.jpg 750w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-1140x1708.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/realestateagentmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Opt_SKY7388-14-10-20-1-scaled.jpg 1709w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\"><\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc7dfed elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"cc7dfed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-quote-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0bbd8cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0bbd8cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-xxl\">When I started this office, it was with the idea of creating a special culture and environment where everyone thrives.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2383f09\" data-id=\"2383f09\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b9d0b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5b9d0b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EDUCATE.
