Meet Your Advocate

Scott Ebel · Founder, Freedom Home Team

Scott has been serving Minnesota and Wisconsin clients since 1994, combining more than three decades of real estate experience with the mindset he learned in uniform. As a veteran and licensed broker, he built Freedom Home Team to be the kind of resource he wished existed when he transitioned out of the military.

  • Licensed real estate professional since October 1994
  • Specialized in veterans, downsizers, and investors
  • Deep relationships with local lenders and service providers
  • Known for direct communication and calm under pressure

"My job is to be the calm voice and clear plan when everything in your world is moving. Buying or selling a home should feel organized, not overwhelming."

Kind Words from Clients

Veterans, families, and investors who felt taken care of.

"As a veteran using my VA loan for the first time, I had a lot of questions. Scott explained every step, negotiated hard for us, and made sure we never felt rushed."

U.S. Army Veteran · First-time buyer

"Scott guided us through selling the family home we had been in for 25 years. His downsizing plan helped us keep what mattered and move with peace of mind."

Empty-nester couple · Downsizing sellers

"We've bought and sold multiple investment properties with Scott. His market reads have been spot on and he always tells us what we need to hear, not just what we want to hear."

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions.

Do you only work with veterans?

We primarily serve veterans and military families, but we also work with civilians, downsizers, and investors across Minnesota and Wisconsin. Our veteran-owned perspective helps everyone we serve.

Is there a cost for an initial call?

No. Your first call or meeting with Scott is complimentary. It's a chance for us to understand your goals and for you to decide if we're a good fit for your mission.

Can you help if I'm out of state or deployed?

Yes. We routinely help clients who are moving to or from Minnesota and Wisconsin while out of state or deployed. We'll handle on-the-ground details, virtual tours, and coordination with your timeline.

Do I have to use a VA loan to work with you?

Not at all. Many of our clients use VA loans, but we also work with FHA, conventional, and cash buyers and sellers. We'll help you compare options with your lender.

How far in advance should I reach out?

Sooner is always better. Even if you're 6–12 months out, a quick strategy call can help you prepare financially and logistically so you're not rushed later.
