REVIEWS

Justine Wiik

Johnson Home Group was fantastic to work with from start to finish. Shari Hensley did an amazing job helping us find our perfect home in Baldwin. She was attentive, patient, and always made sure we felt comfortable moving at our own pace. Every question we had was answered thoroughly, and her guidance along the way made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We’re so grateful for the support and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a home!
Lisa Cieslewicz

I had a great experience working with James Wildman. He was very attentive to what I was looking for and available to show me homes when I could make it over to the area. He went above and beyond sharing the area with me and answering my multiple questions. He’s a great listener and so very kind.
Stephanie Konop

Brian was so easy to work with. This was the second time we used Brian @ Johnson Home Group to buy a home and definitely recommend them to our friends and family. Thanks again for all your help Brian!
Kade Parry

Brian helped with both the selling of our old house and finding our forever home. The whole process took over a year but Brian and his team stayed with us and we got everything we asked for. We would happily use them again!
Dana Cocchiarella

We had a wonderful experience working with Brian Johnson and his team to buy our home. He was honest, transparent, and a great communicator throughout the entire process, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. He also connected us with an amazing lending team and title company. We’re so grateful for his help and would highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a realtor.
Kim Heckmann

Johnson home group has been incredible throughout our cabin purchase. Top notch communication, negotiation, and organization! Everything was perfect. Highly recommend!
Andrew Dunkley

We cannot recommend James Wildman and the Johnson Home Group highly enough. Being brand new to Wisconsin and the Twin Cities, let alone the St. Croix River Valley, we knew no one locally, and were navigating a relocation company with tight parameters and a ton of technical hoops to jump through. That relocation company had initially paired us with another suggested realtor who was not meeting our expectations, which only added to the stress of the process. We met James by chance at an open house he was hosting, and from the very beginning he stood out. He was attentive, asked thoughtful questions about what we were actually looking for, and struck the perfect balance of being available without ever being pushy. He made it clear that he was there to help, on our timeline and on our terms. That availability and attentiveness defined our entire experience with him. Despite the complexities of working with a relocation company, our purchase went off without a hitch, which says a great deal about James’s professionalism, organization, and ability to advocate for us. He was always very quick to answer his phone and respond to our many questions. James also brought a level of real world experience that went far beyond the typical role of a realtor. His background as a veteran and police officer gave us invaluable insight into things that truly mattered to us when choosing a place to live. These included neighborhood safety, overall community quality, and the practical feel of different areas that we simply could not get from listings or statistics. He was able to speak knowledgeably about local schools, churches, community groups, extracurricular opportunities for our kids, and the kinds of places and activities where families naturally connect and build friendships. That perspective helped us feel confident not just about the house we bought, but about the life we are building in Hudson. If you are looking for a realtor who listens, communicates clearly, and genuinely makes the process easier, James Wildman is exactly who you want. We would recommend him without hesitation.
Joe Pelke

My wife and I bought a new house and we had James as our agent. James was great. He was very easy to contact, answered all our questions, and made us feel very comfortable throughout the process.

I’ve worked with the Johnson home group for the past 5 years, both buying and later on selling my home in Hudson. Mark along with his team have been incredible in both processes! They have made everything so easy and smooth, especially for me because both times I was out of the country when I bought and sold my home. Doing this is not easy, but the Johnson Group is very experienced and they communicate so well. They also help with scheduling all appointments, meetings, and tasks needed to get done. They sold my house very quickly! They are the best in all of the area no doubt!
Cedric Long

Brian Johnson and his team did a great job helping me sell my parents' former home in Hudson from the estate. They provided excellent advice for getting it ready for the market and connecting me with good service providers. We got a sale done quickly at a higher price than we originally estimated. They facilitated a smooth process. Recommended!
Melissa Mahoney

We were extremely pleased with our experience with Jeff and the Johnson Home Group during the purchase of a new home. Jeff was responsive, very knowledgeable and brought great perspective when a few issues related to the house popped up before the purchase. He would go above and beyond in helping to research things for us regarding the properties we looked at as well as the areas in question. Jeff effectively managed communications during negotiations and remained a steady guide for us during the process. We are more than happy to recommend Jeff and the Johnson Home Group!
Georgia Hitzke

Mark and Brian from Coldwell banker in Hudson Wisconsin were easy to work with and very responsive to our needs. Better yet they sold our house in 10 days.
Kelly Putney

Brian and his team were great to work with. They sold our lake cabin in NW Wisconsin in just one day and for well over asking! The photos they took really showcased the place! I would highly recommend reaching out to Brian if you are thinking of selling!
Don Lonergan

The same kindnesses and services Wayne Johnson provided us in 1999 is in the DNA of the entire Johnson Group Team today. The family-caring business Wayne founded definitely carries-on in his sons. After losing our dad this year, we ran into many challenges selling the family home for our mom. The home needed many upgrades before we could even list it. Brian Johnson stepped in and managed all of the contractors, estimates, and upgrades (thankfully relieving us of that burden). The home sold for $13K over the list price because of his suggested upgrades. Brian personally cares for the families he serves.
James Rupnow

The Johnson Group in Hudson are the most professional and caring group of folks that you will ever want to meet. It was an absolute pleasure working with them.
