Value-Added Approach
In a market where the pursuit of excellence never ends, we’re determined to drive change.
There are a number of elements in the firm’s marketing and sales activities that the Mike Wilen Group believes are essential to its goal of providing unbeatable value to our clients. These elements include an opportunistic approach, the creation, not just the identification, of value, effective use of your most valuable asset, your time, and the delivery of exceptional real estate experiences.
Mike Wilen
Co-Founder, Broker Associate, REALTOR
Had Mike Wilen chosen a path outside of real estate, it likely would have been in the world of tech. A Minnesota native, he began his career as a receptionist before being recruited by a leading developer. Despite their 30-year age difference, they created a business partnership that grew into a friendship neither could have imagined. The same can be said for the business that has come from it. Mike brings a high level of financial rigor and business acumen to every transaction. He has co-authored several articles on real estate, partnered with more than 40 lenders in the sale and valuation of REO properties, earned dozens of awards including top individual selling agent, co-founded and sold a real estate tech company, and represented sellers in over 750 transactions. Simply put, he is a trusted resource and advocate for his clients and peers. If he’s not your go-to real estate expert, he should be.
NONMLS.com®
The Original Private & Off-Market Syndicate
As we assessed real estate for sale online, we asked: How can we create a listing marketplace that leverages simplicity and modern technology? The result is NONMLS.com, the original private and off-market syndicate, available only at Wilen. By fostering transparency, increasing competition, and lowering costs for both sellers and buyers, NONMLS.com represents a smarter marketing approach built for today.

Thinking of Selling
Unrivaled Expertise
The difference between good and great can mean the difference between success and failure. We understand selling is a tremendously important life decision, and a great agent, like a great doctor, can have an incredible impact on the outcome. When we started over 20 years ago, we didn’t want to be just another agent. We set out to be an order of magnitude better than the competition. If you’re considering the sale of your real estate, or just want to get a sense of your property’s value, we would love to connect.

BuyerWarehouse.com
MinnesotaRealEstateBuyers.com
Instant Cash Offer. Sell As-Is. No Showings. Your Timeline.
Our primary focus is to provide unprecedented value to our clients. This begins with a well-thought-out marketing strategy, presenting the allure of your property to a massive buying audience on the open market to achieve the highest return on investment. That said, we also understand that in certain circumstances, the ability to move or sell quickly can be advantageous. For this reason, we don’t actively advertise instant cash offers or “guaranteed cash offers.” However, MinnesotaRealEstateBuyers.com and BuyerWarehouse.com hold a prominent position in the market—a testimony to white-glove client service and our credibility to close deals quickly and effectively for those seeking an alternative to the traditional market.
