Tristan and his team at mindful living were punctual and knowledgable! Our house sold so fast and we feel like Tristan truly executed the transition smoothly and punctually. Theyre a local family business which I love to support. Highly recommend!

Tristan was great to work with. We were really all over the map with what we wanted. We looked at everything from a house in Custer to a ranchette 15 miles out a gravel road to a forestry service cabin. Tristan was a great sport, driving out to remote locations, writing up offers, and helping us out with getting as much information as we could on each property. For much of our search, either we were in another state or he was, so his familiarity with technology really helped. We finally closed on our dream property - a five acre parcel in Star Valley Estates - from our home in PA while Tristan was in MT! Thank you Tristan for hanging in there with us, while our dream materialized!

Tristan and the entire Emond crew were pivotal in our move from South Carolina. Having never visited South Dakota, we didnt know where to start. After previous home-buying experiences, working with a lifelong local realtor was extremely important for us; Tristan checked this box. His knowledge and familiarity with a location foreign to us gave us great comfort in making such a big decision. We flew into Rapid City for a very short visit to check the area out, and with Tristans guidance, it already felt like home a few days later when we had to leave. In such a hot market, we knew wed have to tour homes virtually and likely make an offer without physically being in the area. The Emond team guided us through the entire process flawlessly from half a country away. We highly recommend these guys and cant thank them enough for removing a great deal of stress from our cross-country move.

We made the decision to move from Northern Virginia to Rapid City 2 years ago (in 2020). We were straight up with Tristan about our timeline and he was totally good with that. No pressure whatsoever. He answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. When it was finally time for us to move forward he was there for us. He was our boots on the ground and he made sure everything was squared away. We just closed on our new home (June 3rd 2022-Exactly when we wanted) in Rapid Valley and we couldn't be happier! I can STRONGLY recommend Tristan and Mindful Living Realty. They are fantastic!

Tristan was fantastic for our move to South Dakota from Arizona. When we came out to visit the state in the fall, he made time to sit down, chat, and answer questions we had about the area. He was able to do walk throughs of multiple homes for us virtually, and was always patient and available via text or phone call when we would plague him with questions or concerns. 8 months later we now have a beautiful home here in Rapid City. Would definitely recommend.

Moving to Rapid City/Black Hills from another state? Tristan is your guy.A lot of time, you see reviews that rate a product as service as top notch. You wonder whether someone is just saying that or that they are simply wearing rose colored glasses. That is not the case here.Top 5 Reasons he's 5 stars:1. Tells you the hard truths about your property, the process and the market. It's not always bad news though.2. Passionate about his body of work. His YouTube channel has a lot of information about the area, market and the real estate process. He even brings experts on his channel to discuss issues.3. Willing to go the extra mile. For me, it was giving me recommendations about local businesses, things to do in the area and even putting himself in my shoes. He even took a video for me to remember the house including the drive up to it.4. He gets the deal done. Ties to point 1 because he set my expectations so close to reality that when it came time to submit an offer, it was accepted.5. He's personable. His light hearted approach includes smiles, jokes and genuinely engaging my family in all our conversations.I genuinely enjoyed my experience working with Tristan. In the future I would likely use him again.

Tristan and his team were extremely helpful and friendly in the process of buying our new home. He gave us a full tour of the various neighborhoods we were interested in. When it came time to make an offer and sign documents we were able to easily e-sign everything as we were out of town for the sale. His YouTube videos also made it easy to discover more about the area and the process. I would highly recommend working with Tristan.

Tristan and the Emond team are the best! They helped us move from out of state with no problems. They listened to what we wanted/needed, they never pushed any houses on us that werent the right fit, and they were completely honest about all houses that we looked at. We ended up buying sight unseen, with the help of the Emond team and we love our house and neighborhood! They were always fast to respond with detailed and informative answers to any questions we had. I will absolutely be recommending the Emond team to everyone I know looking in Rapid City!

My family and I are moving over 1200 miles from the west to South Dakota. We found Tristan through his videos when researching South Dakota and fell in love with Rapid City so much that we are moving there sight unseen. He has made the process so easy and has gone above and beyond to make sure we are comfortable with the purchase especially since we couldn't do the walk through a ourselves and he is an EXPERT at doing this. I believe he has helped many military families who are in the same predicament and cannot visit before purchasing. The video calls and walkthroughs have me confident that we will love our home. I couldn't recommend Tristan more.

Tristan was a pleasure to work with, he's a real professional. He is responsive, attentive to details and highly knowledgable about different types of properties. He helped us with buying our house in Rapid City, SD. When we first met in his office he took us for a ride and showed different areas around the city. It was really helpful especially because we were out of state buyers and didn't know the area at all! He continued to work with us remotely showing the houses over Facetime and we were able to close the deal completely remotely just fully relying on Tristan and his team! His son Michael is a real professional too! I would highly recommend Tristan if you're looking to buy a house in Rapid City area, you will love working with him!
