I’m Dana Mol, your Northwest suburbs Real Estate Agent & Mortgage Loan Advisor. My mission is to guide you through one of the most exciting times of your life – buying or selling a home. Many times buying and selling go hand-in-hand, and sometimes things get complicated. I’m here to cut through the confusion and make the journey a trip you’ll never forget for all the right reasons.

A home is much more than a roof over your head, it’s the center of your life. It’s where memories are made, where children grow up and families grow together, where traditions are started and renewed, and where you feel the most secure. There truly is no place like home.

I’ve created this website to put you on the right path as a buyer or seller. Learn about different communities, experience a variety layouts and designs, get information on prices and amenities, and much more. You’ll find up-to-the-minute real estate information across the state but because I specialize in some of the most popular parts of the Twin Cities like Saint Michael, Rogers, Maple Grove, Otsego, Elk River, Monticello, and Coon Rapids, you’ll find special search functions for them. Use the free search tool to find homes you want to see in the places you want to live. All of the information an agent can provide is right at your fingertips.

As a resident of Rogers and a top performing agent, I know this market inside and out – what it takes to get a great deal or get top dollar for your current home. I have many connections in the northwest suburbs, including a close relationship with the folks at Benzinger Homes, one of the fastest growing premium home builders in the Twin Cities.

Before becoming a realtor, I spent 26 years at a Fortune 500 company managing operations, training staff, supporting sales and billing departments, and negotiating contracts. Since joining Arrow Companies I’ve built a dedicated team of agents that focus on one thing – making sure our customers are completely satisfied. Whether you are renting, buying or selling, I put your interests first and my team will work overtime to give you a first-class experience. My goal is to be your trusted partner and expert guide on the journey you’re about to begin.
