Selling in Morrison County
Sell your home in Pierz, MN

The process
How Janet sells in Pierz
Start with a call
Reach Janet at (320) 219-2488 with the basics: where the home is in Pierz, when you want to move, and any questions.
Walk-through and pricing
A walk-through and a comparable sales review lead to one number, and Janet explains how she got there.
Prepare the home
Before photos, she says what to fix, what to clear out, and what to leave alone, based on what Pierz buyers want.
Photos and the listing
Once the photos are done, the listing goes live on the MLS and the major portals. Janet shares it on social media as well.
Showings and offers
She manages showing requests, gathers feedback, and brings you offers with her read on price, terms, and the buyer's financing.
Inspection to closing
Janet stays on the file through inspection, appraisal, and closing, and she is still a phone call away after the sale.
Your listing plan
What Janet's marketing can include
Janet builds the marketing plan around the property, so it differs from house to house. Depending on the home, it can include the items below; agree on the schedule together so you know what will happen before the listing goes live.
- 8K drone photos and video
- Staging before the shoot
- The listing itself
- Social media posts
- Paired open houses
- Food at open houses
- Agent-to-agent calls
- Showing feedback passed on to you
Each one is explained on the main selling page, with what sellers wrote about her listings.

FAQ
Sellers ask
What is the first step to selling in Pierz?
Ask Janet for a market analysis, which is free and carries no obligation. She will walk through the home, pull comparable sales from NorthstarMLS, and tell you what it would list for. She will also tell you what is worth doing before photos.
Do homes in Pierz have a well and septic?
Inside city limits, most homes are on municipal water and sewer, and outside town, private wells and septic systems are the norm. Minnesota requires a well disclosure at sale, and most counties here require a septic compliance inspection when a property changes hands.
What is winter access like for rural homes near Pierz?
City streets and county roads are plowed by the city and the county. Township roads are plowed by the township, and private drives and some lake roads fall to the owner or an association. Janet asks who plows the road before you buy.
