My oldest seller to date! Phyllis is 96 years young. This spring she decided it was time to sell her South Minneapolis house so she wouldn’t have to go down to the basement for laundry. When we met in 1997, she walked around Lake Calhoun every morning, then she would work at the Hallmark Store in Calhoun Square. She is still as sharp as ever!

Navigating stairs & taking care of a house definitely kept her fit and sharp all these years! Today we found the next steward. ❤️🏠
