Personal Profile
"Hi, I'm Rob Schanilec. In 1998, my family and I were looking for a safe and pretty community with good schools, but commutable to my business in the Twin Cities. Our Realtor suggested Northfield. Northfield had everything we were looking for, and so much more. A vibrant and historic college town with an arts-oriented, family-centered vibe, Northfield felt right the minute we saw it. Within a few years of bringing our family here, I moved my print business, By All Means Graphics, onto Bridge Square in the heart of downtown Northfield, where it continues to thrive. Since then I've sat on many Northfield boards and commissions (I'm currently a member of the Convention and Visitors Bureau Board), have been an active member of the Northfield Arts Guild, founded and published the Entertainment Guide, and was named the 2016 Northfield Area Chamber of Commerce Business Person of the Year. And as my business has taken me to communities around Northfield, I've learned that there are many great towns south of the Cities to happily grow a family, and a career. I'd love to show them all to you. My wife and I are recent empty nesters, with 7 kids, 3 grandchildren, a rescue dog named Charlie, and a cat named Boo. We live in a 100-year-old house in downtown Northfield on the edge of the Carleton campus. I look forward to bringing my knowledge about and passion for community to your own home discovery. "

Buyer reviewWe've worked with many realtors over the years, but none as OUTSTANDING as Rob. He stayed laser focused on our "wants/needs" in a home...and then he helped us find the perfect place. His attention to detail made the entire buying journey flow very smoothly. We couldn't be happier with the stellar service.

Buyer reviewI've know Rob Schanilec since high school/college. He was trustworthy back then, and he is now. We asked a lot of Rob as we searched for a place that would meet the needs of four individuals who would be sharing a family compound. His patience, encouragement, and willingness to give clear, real feedback on properties was invalable. He kept track of the small details, which helped me to feel confident that all would go smoothly up until our closing, which it absolutely did. Besides being professional and outstanding in every way at what he does, he is a pleasure to spend time with. Rob Schanilec is the friend you want in your corner when you are making big decisions.

Seller reviewRob is intelligent, kind, and professional. He kept in touch throughout the whole process, and his communication was just the right amount -- not overwhelming; low pressure, but right on the ball. Rob was very tuned into the course of events, and touched base when anything was needed. He thanked me for being on top of things when I emailed him with questions or with documents he had requested. Just the best experience. Thanks Rob!

Seller reviewRob provided everything I was looking for in a real estate person. He was insightful in helping to prepare the property, gave good feedback, was ALWAYS available on short notice and openminded and informative regarding various options. Paperwork was handled well and he consulted with other professionals to help my confidence that we had a deal that was good for both the seller and buyer. It was a nice experience all around and I recommend Rob with high confidence that others will be glad to work with him.
