What’s in a name?

Tousley & Co. carries a name in family history, as it is derived from Alex's maiden name, Tousley. The legacy of the Tousley name extends to the renowned Tousley Ford dealership in White Bear Lake, established by her grandfather, Herb Tousley II, back in 1956. This nod to family heritage is not just a name; it's a tribute to Alex's father, Herb Tousley III, a significant influence in their lives, guiding them with his strong ethics and values. Herb's exceptional contributions and achievements in the real estate realm were recognized when he was honored with induction into the Minnesota Real Estate Hall of Fame in 2021.

Unfortunately, Herb Tousley III passed away in 2020, leaving a lasting mark on Brian and Alex. His influence has greatly shaped their aspirations in the real estate industry, and Tousley & Co. stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of a family dedicated to principles and excellence.

“Alex was phenomenal to work with for both buying and selling. We bought a new house very quickly without having sold our previous home. She worked with us to get that home sold as quickly as possible and to make the transition to our new home seamless.”
