I am Dan Pflugshaupt, Broker/Owner of Gallery of Homes, leading a dedicated REO team providing statewide coverage across Minnesota, including the Twin Cities and North Central Minnesota, with a primary focus and deep experience in rural and hard-to-service properties.

Licensed since 2003 and active in the default industry since 2005, our team manages a high volume of REO assets across all stages, including pre-foreclosure, short sales, loss mitigation, redemption periods, occupied properties, distressed assets, renovation, and active disposition, with the structure in place to support consistent execution for regional and national clients.

Our operation is built to manage assets throughout the entire lifecycle, with a full REO team including management, field staff, and dedicated accounts payable/receivable support, along with a statewide vendor network coordinating bids, property preservation, routine property inspections, occupancy checks, securing, rekeys, winterizations, repair coordination, and rehab oversight.

A core strength of our operation is renovation, rehab, and repair execution. We actively manage projects to improve marketability and maximize asset recovery, overseeing contractors, coordinating scopes of work, and ensuring efficient completion across diverse property types and geographic locations.

Short sales and pre-foreclosure resolution are a significant part of our operation. We work within loss mitigation timelines to support lender objectives, reduce losses, and facilitate efficient resolution of distressed assets, particularly in complex and rural markets where these situations require experienced oversight.

Our team also supports property marketing through professional photography, drone imagery, and 360-degree tours to improve exposure and assist in driving market response where appropriate.

Financially, we are positioned to perform, with the ability to advance funds for repairs, utilities, and preservation expenses, ensuring timelines are not delayed and assets move efficiently through the disposition process.

In addition to REO disposition, we complete a high volume of BPOs annually and maintain strong expertise in valuation, condition assessment, and market positioning across rural, distressed, and investment properties.

I have been a member of the National REO Brokers Association (NRBA) since 2012 and was recently designated as a Master Broker for the state of Minnesota.

We are active on leading platforms and maintain full MLS access across Minnesota, including Northstar MLS and regional boards.
