Art Hays

The Hays family and real estate have been synonymous with one another for over 100 years. A.D. Hays (Art’s great-grandfather) started A.D. Hays Company, Inc. in 1917 as a land development and land management company in Minneapolis, MN. Since its founding, A.D. Hays Company has helped both residential and commercial developers execute their plans for community housing developments and commercial office/retail space on both a local and national scale. 

As a fourth-generation real estate advisor, Art focuses exclusively on residential real estate not only in the Twin Cities but internationally as well. Through the power of the Sotheby’s global network, Art has helped clients buy and sell in Minnesota, across the United States and internationally! His ability to help clients with their real estate needs spans over 1,000 offices globally, delivering the largest and most experienced network in the world.

Having sold every type of residential property, throughout Minnesota, and in all price points, Art has a keen understanding of not only the subtle nuances of each specific type of transaction, but an ability to cut through the clutter and get to what’s most important to his clients. While the process of buying and selling continues to evolve, the principles of delivering exceptional results don’t. Integrity, hard work, and an unrelenting drive to exceed his clients’ expectations has been, and will continue to be, at the center of Art’s real estate business. 

When he’s taking a break from helping clients realize their real estate dreams, Art enjoys spending time with his family (wife, four kids and two dogs) and traveling. He’s blessed to be surrounded by a great team that works together to make it happen for every client, in every circumstance.
