Marketing. Networking. Negotiating. The hundreds of fine details that go into every dramaless real estate transaction. Kim Guild, being a businesswoman in full, enjoys these all. 

But it wasn’t the art of the deal that lured Kim away from the corporate world 22 years ago. 

What motivates Kim most is people. Advocating for them. Aiding them along challenging transitions. Ensuring they float safely across shark-filled waters. Surpassing their every expectation for their fiduciary. Kim, being a Realtor in full, loves all of these.

“I left the corporate world because I was starved for real human connections,” said Kim. “That deep-seated urge to win strangers’ trust, confidence – and, hopefully, friendship – is still the red-hot engine driving The Guild Group forward.

“Some of my efforts are as small as dropping by previous clients’ houses to drop off their favorite candy (I always find out what it is). Some are much larger, such as helping professionals seamlessly move from other states into the most luxurious homes the Twin Cities have to offer. Whatever it entails, my white-glove concierge service is all motivated by the same goal. I enjoy seeing people happy!

“That’s why a Zillow review by my recent clients Bruce and Richard brought me such joy. They wrote:

Working with Kim Guild and The Guild Group was truly one of the best decisions we made during a major life transition. Kim helped us sell our family’s longtime home in West Bloomington and guided us thoughtfully and skillfully as we found our new home in Golden Valley. From the very beginning, she listened carefully to what mattered most to us, offered honest and timely feedback, and brought a deep well of experience and local knowledge to every step of the process.

Kim went far beyond what we expected. She connected us with trusted craftspeople and tradespeople as we prepared our home for sale, and she introduced us to excellent inspectors and advisors as we evaluated multiple homes during our search. Her guidance was always practical, grounded, and clearly focused on our best interests – not just closing a deal.

Throughout the entire journey, Kim was patient, steady, and incredibly supportive. She made a complex and emotional process feel manageable, and she showed up not just as an outstanding professional, but as a genuine partner and friend. We would wholeheartedly recommend Kim to anyone buying or selling a home, and we can confidently say the same about the exceptional team that supports her. We are deeply grateful for her care, expertise, and commitment.

“A review like that is music to my ears,” Kim continued. “Bruce and Richard wouldn’t have known when one of them wrote it, but it verifies that I’m doing just as I hoped I would when I first set out on my real estate journey so many years ago.

“To Bruce and Richard, I say Thank you! a million times. And to whoever might be reading this, I say this:

“I hope you’re next!”

Kim specializes in luxury and senior housing, although she works with plenty of traditional buyers and sellers as well. She is also a certified relocation real estate agent, and regularly partners with clients who are planning to move to the Twin Cities area or need to connect with a great agent in another market.
