Collaboration
We know that the best way to serve our clients is by building our connections with amazing partners like lenders, inspectors an even other real estate agents. By working together towards a common goal (helping people achieve their goals) we are able to make true positive impact.
Our People
Hi I’m Isaac!
My journey began on the West Side, deeply rooted in family, culture, and history. In high school, I was on track for a conventional life—college, career, and family—but felt a pull to do more. This led me to the Navy, where I spent six transformative years. A key moment came when Chief Reagan challenged me with the motto, “never let them outwork you,” a drive that still fuels me today.
After the Navy, I became a supervisor at a manufacturing company, but the long hours and limited family time pushed me to seek a change. I discovered a passion for sales, which eventually led me to real estate. I started as a loan originator and grew into my current role as a Realtor®, where I find fulfillment in helping clients achieve their dreams. There’s nothing like witnessing that moment when everything clicks for them.
Guided by dedication to family, faith, and the lessons I’ve learned, I focus on serving the veteran and Latino community and understanding their unique needs. I’m committed to guiding my clients through every step of the process—and beyond. As your lifelong REALTOR®, I’m here to help you reach your goals, no matter the challenges. Let's create your next success story together.
About Isaac Fernando
Hi I’m Isaac Fernando!
Growing up, I was deeply rooted in my community, where strong family ties and neighborly bonds were the norms. After high school, I embarked on a new adventure by joining the Navy, where I learned invaluable lessons in adaptability and empathy while serving alongside people from diverse backgrounds.
Now as a Navy veteran turned real estate professional, I bring a personalized approach shaped by my military background and close-knit community upbringing. I’m committed to treating each client as an individual, tailoring my services to meet their unique needs and goals. Consistent communication and community engagement are at the core of my practice, fostering trust and transparency throughout the process. My dedication to service and building strong relationships ensures a smooth, fulfilling experience for my clients. By focusing on these principles, I’m earning a reputation as a trusted advisor within my community.
Hi I’m Isaac!
After finishing my Marine service, I sought a career that balanced helping others with family time.
Enlisting in 2017, I chose the Marines for their challenging training, which pushed me to grow. I chose to leave after losing my supportive Uncle Steve during my enlistment, I learned the importance and limits of time with family. Returning to Minnesota, I initially framed houses but missed personal connections.
Discovering real estate, I became a licensed REALTOR® and joined CML Group, which aligns with my core values of God, family, and work. My passion is helping clients reach their goals while offering support. Whether working with veterans or other clients, I prioritize building lasting relationships. The most important thing to me is that my clients have the easiest process possible and move into a house smiling ear to ear.
About Michael
Hi I’m Michael!
I’ve always been fascinated by the journey we all take through life. A passion is seeing people reach their fullest potential, and to that I bring a wealth of experience and education to share. To me, finding the right home is a key part of becoming our best selves. Helping that happen brings a wonderful reward I enjoy.
My own journey has taken me through a wide variety of settings, from big cities to small towns, from working with youth to real estate title services to small group travel to management. Each one shaping my perspective. The greatest pride in my life comes from raising two wonderful daughters. While our family wasn’t always picture-perfect, I was intentional about choosing homes—whether rural or suburban—that would help us find harmony even through life’s challenges. Now, I’m fortunate to live in a home that lets me explore my passions, like gardening, woodworking, and connecting with local friends and artists.
I’m a Midwesterner at heart, with a global perspective shaped by my family’s values and rich cultural experiences. I’m here to help you explore your needs and dreams, using my extensive network to find the home perfect for your life journey.
About Julissa
Hi I’m Julissa!
... and I believe that homeownership is the best path to generational wealth.
I got into real estate first as a buyer/investor. In 2015, I had just returned to Minnesota after spending about a year and a half in Peru wrapping up my degree in International Business. I was starting a new corporate position and planned to get an apartment with my sister. That was when my mom presented me with an alternative: move home, live rent-free, and save to purchase a duplex. Nine months later, in 2016, I closed on my first investment property! Shortly after, in 2017, I got my real estate license and by early 2018, I became a full-time REALTOR.
What I love most about my job is the people I meet and work with; I truly have the best clients and partners. Design, marketing, and touring beautiful homes is just a bonus.
Outside of work, I like to spend time outdoors with my husband Caleb, and our two dogs, Olive and Luna. They have special “gotcha” stories”—just ask!
