MEET THE TEAM
OUR STORY
Twin Cities TC was formed with a simple goal in mind – we wanted to take our years of administrative real estate transaction experience and offer services directly to the Minnesota agents and brokerages about our industry thrive. Basically, we wanted to cut out the middleman and in order to provide local real estate agents with a direct line to the time-saving administrative services they need.
Our skilled team of professional Transaction Coordinators is proud to offer Minnesota real estate agents a friendly, local and efficient way to handle their transaction management.
With thousands of closed transactions worth north of a billion dollars under our belts, most would agree that we’ve more than accomplished our original goal, but according to the team, Twin Cities TC is just getting started.
