Experienced Agents, Caring Friends
About Mickelson Realtors

Mickelson Realtors is a locally owned real estate agency in Aberdeen South Dakota established in 1999. Unlike other franchise agencies, our only office is in Aberdeen so we can focus all our energy on you–the buyer, seller or investor living and working in and around Aberdeen.
With a lifetime of living in the community, our agents have a wealth of knowledge about the Aberdeen area that you will benefit from. We will not simply sell you a home and walk away. We will help you cover every detail, from where your kids will go to school, to what day garbage pick-up is, and everything in between.
When it comes to the challenge of buying and selling real estate, we combine technology with local area knowledge to help you be successful.
We hope that through this website you will gain as much information as possible about the property available in and around the area. We have included information about the Richmond Lake and Mina Lake communities, too.

Heather is dedicated to providing a personal experience and will strive to meet and exceed your real estate needs. She especially enjoys working with first time home buyers.
