Her combined sales in 2012-2016, of over $47 million, made her the top producer in the New Ulm area. To date in 2017, she has over $13 million in home sales.

Mary Henle, Broker/Owner of New Ulm Real Estate, says her work ethic and love of people makes real estate her true calling and feels blessed every day to have her part of the Henle Team.

Besemer earned the GRI designation by attending a specific, intensive series of classroom instruction, covering a variety of subjects including professional standards, legal issues, sales and marketing, finance and risk reduction, technology and social media.
