In this first episode of Key Conversations, we’re keeping it simple and personal. We’re CJ and Katy Norman, the husband and wife Realtor team behind Norman Homes in Mound, Minnesota, and this is an intro to who we are, how we work, and what you can expect from the show.

We talk about how we got into real estate, what it’s like doing this together as a married team, and the kind of guidance we’re known for: clear, straightforward, and never pushy. We also share the topics we’ll be covering going forward, including buying and selling strategy, negotiations, inspections, new construction, lake properties, market updates, and investing.

If you’re a buyer, seller, homeowner, or just curious about the Twin Cities market, you’re in the right place. Subscribe, and drop a comment with a question you want us to answer in a future episode.
