The Emond Team @ Mindful Living Realty | Rapid City SD

"Worked with Tristan to buy a home. He was very responsive and had great local knowledge of the houses and the areas. Would definitely recommend and use again."

"I can’t speak highly enough about Tristan and the Mindful Living Realty team. As retirees located in another state, we were looking for a property to build our forever home on. Tristan listened to our needs and wants, which often changed, as properties became available. We asked him a lot of technical questions about each property - from rights to drill wells to soil properties just to name a few. If he and his team did not have the answers right off, he found them and sent us the documentation. It took us some time but we finally found the right place and Tristan was there every step of the way. On September 2023, from our home in Colorado, we closed on our new property, a five-acre parcel located in Sunset Ranch. Thanks Tristan and to everyone there at Mindful Living Realty for making it so easy."

"We were first introduced to Tristan by his YouTube videos when we were researching Rapid City in 2021 as we were originally going to retire here in a few years. We were so impressed by the variety of information he presented as well as being entertaining. We really got a sense of what Rapid City has to offer! We requested a Relocation Guide which was also super informative and much needed as our life changed and we decided to move much sooner in 2022. Tristan was very good about following up with us after he sent the Relocation Guide, which made us feel comfortable about asking him about anything related to Rapid City and not just about real estate. Once we made the decision to buy (Feb 2023), Tristan Amanda, and Mindful Living Team were so pleasant, helpful, and patient with us as we came from another state and the rules are a bit different. They were extremely accommodating with us as we weren’t sure exactly the type of house we wanted to buy. We sent emails with tons of questions and Tristan was very prompt in getting back to us with the answers. Once we found the perfect house for us, Amanda helped us with the paperwork on a Friday night while Tristan was out of town. Both of them helped us through the process as well as being extremely accommodating when we needed contractors to come and give us quotes on various items. All in all, it was a very smooth escrow which attributes to their proactive approach as far as explaining the processes. We HIGHLY recommend Tristan and his team at Mindful Living Reality!"

"Tristan was excellent in both the purchasing and selling of our home. Moving from another state, his expertise of the area was invaluable; taking time to give us a personal tour and share his advice on the area's offerings according to our wants. He made the right moves to get the home we wanted in a time houses were getting scooped up faster than you can blink. When the time came to sell he worked quickly to start the process, was always available for questions and concerns and ensured life during the sale was as normal as possible. He planned ahead and worked around our schedules. The end result of our working together was multiple, over-asking price offers within a two day period. This was a pleasant surprise as the market had calmed considerably and it was no longer the norm to experience that. All around Tristan is an absolute pleasure to work with making a typically stressful undertaking a breeze and dare I say, almost fun."

"Tristan and the entire Emond crew were pivotal in our move from South Carolina. Having never visited South Dakota, we didn’t 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 Tristan’s guidance, it already felt like home a few days later when we had to leave. In such a hot market, we knew we’d 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 can’t thank them enough for removing a great deal of stress from our cross-country move."
