About Vern

With over twenty years of experience in Cuyuna Lakes real estate, I bring a deep-rooted passion and in-depth knowledge of our unique market as a dedicated Broker Associate. My career began at Century 21, evolved through founding Jacobs Realty LLC, and now flourishes with Coldwell Banker Crown Realtors. Along the way, I’ve been honored with distinctions including the International President's Circle, Premier, and Elite Awards—each reflecting my unwavering commitment to excellence. My real estate journey started with the purchase of a local rental property, igniting a lifelong appreciation for real estate as both a wise investment and a means to strengthen our community. Together with my wife Teffany, I own and operate Red Rider Resort and proudly introduced Crosby’s first indoor pickleball court. We also own a VRBO property in Palm City, Florida, providing a fun, year-round getaway for travelers. As a co-owner of Trailside Tavern and a member of the Crosby City Council, I am deeply invested in the growth and vitality of our area. Whether you’re searching for your dream home, a vacation retreat, hunting land, or a commercial opportunity, you can count on my local expertise and personalized service for a seamless real estate experience. I am here to help you navigate the Cuyuna Lakes market with confidence, integrity, and care.
