Our Team

Jim Berg | Founder | Realtor

As the founder of the JB Team, Jim has taken the lead in the Twin Cities with his extensive use of technology. Jim gained valuable experience as CEO of Global Systems, an internet marketing and web presence technology provider. Using his marketing and programming background, Jim created several real estate based technology services and was the sole  developer for the Unique Homes Magazine international luxury real estate internet presence.  Jim continues to maintain a bank of web servers at multiple USA locations.

Jim’s expertise in marketing, computers, internet, media, virtual tour, aerial drone tech (the first MN Realtor with an FAA UAS Pilot’s License), combined with his real estate license… has resulted in his providing marketing and technology to over 650 Realtors, actually helping them list  and sell their client’s homes, resulting in over $2B in real estate sales.

As a life-long resident of Minnesota, Jim saw a desperate need for advanced real estate service in the Twin Cities Metro, both in terms of helping seller’s take advantage of the best marketing plan to get their homes sold, and in assisting buyers with advanced MLS and neighborhood technology to help in the buying process… The result was the creation of the JB Team.
