AboutMePage | Brian Duoos, Manager

Having been in real estate sales and management in the Twin Cities since 1972, I have seen many changes in laws, technology, consolidation of firms and attitudes! One thing that hasn't changed is my committment to an industry I thoroughly enjoy. To be a survivor in the business you need to stay flexible, focused and committed. After 17 years of selling homes I switched my career path to the management of Realtors and the dreams they pursue! At the Eden Prairie office it is my pleasure to work with a terrific group of individuals who interact as a team in a delightful fashion. They are a dedicated bunch - each unique - who work hard, play hard and laugh a lot! I can't imagine working with a better group.

Leadership

Over the years, I have established a network of professional resources that help me stay abreast of the latest developments in the real estate field. I follow market trends both in housing and management trends that benefit the Realtors in my office. They know they can rely on me for direct concise advice and counsel. The legal and marketing expertise available to me through Edina Realty is second to none. As a result, their confidence level is high.

Professional Involvement

I have been active in a number of professional organizations. This involvement has been very enjoyable and I believe it has helped me to interact successfully with a wide variety of people. Some of my involvement includes:

Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors (MAAR)

Salesman's Advisory Committee
Treasurer
Board of Directors
Executive Committee

Minnesota Association of Realtors (MAR)

Chair, Education Committee
Ethics & Arbitration Committee
Chair, State Convention
Board of Directors

I believe in the real estate industry and invest as much time as I can to work with the local, state, and national associations of REALTORS. Through this experience, I believe my knowledge and influence will help to improve my profession.

Community Involvement

In my spare time, I enjoy participation in church activities, school events and working to better the community in which I live. I believe this work has helped me to be a more knowledgeable citizen and a better sales manager!

EDEN PRAIRIE 'A BETTER CHANCE FOUNDATION'

This is a local chapter of a national organization that brings highly motivated disadvantaged students from all parts of the US to attend 4 years of high school in Eden Praire. Having been on the board of directors for 6 years I have seen the good that comes from giving students a better chance at success than they would have had in their old environs. Currently there are 14 scholars in the program. Contact me for more information!
