Dylan Seurer

In this episode, we’re joined by Dylan Seurer with Lakes Sotheby's International. As a new member of the Sotheby’s team, Dylan shares his thoughts on how brokerage differences impact agents. We also hear about his detailed buyer consultation process where he covers inspections, earnest money, and strategies that many agents skip. In this episode: How an early start during college shaped Dylan’s real estate career. What different brokerages actually offer agents at different career stages. The challenge of starting young without a built-in network or reputation. How open houses and door knocking helped Dylan build early momentum. How separate business styles still work under one team model. Why buyer work remains a major part of Dylan’s daily workload. What buyers often misunderstand about earnest money and inspections. Why inspection decisions depend on property details, timing, and strategy. The limits of inspectors and the expectations buyers need early on. How poor guidance can lead buyers through avoidable stress and confusion. How open houses reveal problems with how some other agents submit offers. How Dylan operates across both the Minnesota and Wisconsin housing markets. The contract differences that change inspection negotiations in each state. Why one canceled deal stands out to Dylan after years of steady transactions. How extra work for clients can extend beyond selling houses. Why referrals matter most as proof of strong client experience.   Contact Dylan: Cell # 612-803-1956 Email: [email protected]
