About Ryan Bretzel

Born and raised 30 minutes outside of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Ryan Bretzel came to the Twin Cities in 2001 in pursuit of a degree from the University of Minnesota. While in college he met his wife, Emily, and fell in love with her and the Twin Cities. Since getting married in 2006, Ryan and Emily now have a son named Archer, and daughters Laine and Vienna. During college Ryan got a degree in plant genetics and worked on oats and medicago truncatula, a model plant for soybean, but his passion for homes was always there. Throughout his life he has gained experience through jobs such as machining, welding, and concrete work. Ryan grew up with a father who is a carpenter; so, construction has been around him all his life. Ryan decided that with his knowledge in construction and his social personality, becoming a Real Estate Consultant would be a great fit for him. Now he is working in a career he loves, helping people like you, find the home of their dreams. Areas of Expertise Ryan Bretzel began his career with Keller Williams Realty in 2006 and has been successful because he focuses on helping his clients determine their goals and helps them put together a game plan to reach those goals. He has experience helping clients find homes priced less than $50,000 and for more than $500,000, anywhere from St. Cloud to Osceola WI, but generally focuses on the Twin Cities Metro area and Western Wisconsin. Ryan studies the market constantly by keeping in touch with market trends, lending practices and evaluating home structures. His expertise for evaluating home structures stems from a vast array of experiences as a wood worker, welder, machinist and concrete worker, all of which have helped his clients with decision making. Communication is key, and that is why he vows to continuously keep in contact with his clients and provide valuable information to help them build their wealth. He knows that even though he handles transactions on a daily basis; his clients may only buy or sell a home a few times in their lifetime. Ryan takes the extra time and care to educate them about their decisions. Ryan's goal is to do such an outstanding job that his clients will not hesitate to refer their friends and family to him!

Ryan did a great job smoothing out buyer difficulties late in the process. His knowledge and professionalism were greatly appreciated. He was continuously available and listened to our needs.

Ryan was our realtor for both the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new one in the summer of 2022. WOW! What a fabulous job this young man did for us. As buyers, he listened closely to what we were looking for, and set up showings for homes that met our parameters! For each and every home we visited, he carefully inspected each property with us and pointed out all of the pluses AND minuses for each home. We bought our new home in a HOT market, and Ryan expertly guided us through the offer process and helped us get a signed purchase agreement on the house we wanted! As for the sale of our former home, Ryan went above and beyond in helping us prepare our house for sale, and marketing it to prospective buyers. He even hired a DRONE to provide prospective buyers with aerial footage of our house and property! He worked with us to set a sales price that would lead to a good number of buyers touring our house. On the FIRST day our house went live on the MLS, we had 10 different showings, resulting in 6 different offers. We ended up selling the house for $50,000 OVER our asking price! Ryan is a rock star at what he does! We can't recommend him enough!

5 year update: Ryan helped us get a good price for our first home and got us into the new home we wanted. He's still as knowledgeable and hardworking as ever.

My husband and I had very short notice of where we were going to be moving for my new job. Within minutes of finding out where we were moving, we gave Ryan a call and he had a few houses lined up for us to see within a couple of hours! The housing market was rough for buyers at the time, we lost a couple of offers. But Ryan worked his magic and was able to schedule us THREE showings hours before other buyers had the chance to compete with us. We were able to get an accepted offer that way, and we couldn't be happier with the house we now call home. Ryan is great to work with, he is realistic, very knowledgeable in his profession, and a great advocate for his clients. He proved to be patient- we ran into long, unexpected delays when buying a home during a pandemic. It was also very convenient he is credentialed to work in MN and WI, too. We will be moving in a couple of years and definitely plan on working with Ryan again!

I highly recommend Ryan Bretzel as a realtor to anyone who is in the market. He is a very honest realtor, who is also very patient with his clients. He is a one of a kind realtor who dedicated his work to all his clients by making sure they like what they buy. I would definitely use Ryan Bretzel over and over again if I can buy more houses in the future! Please reach out to him if you or your family member is in the market.
