Brandyn enjoys the outdoors. With all his free time you can catch him in a blind Duck hunting or have a hard time finding him in a Deer stand! But when it comes to helping others he is there with a hammer in hand, remodeling or hammering in new nails! He joined this project for our community as it’s the most he can do To give back to others like our troops, that gave us freedom and continue to do so.

Hi, I’m Curt Lovitz – I admire the ambition and dedication of our team members who have started the Veteran Valor Farm, providing a home for those Vets who don’t have one.
I’ve lived in Minnesota for most of my entire life, and enjoy all outdoor activities, hunting, fishing, hiking, etc. I hope to help our veterans enjoy the same while offering them a safe haven. A place for healing in a natural environment so they are able to get their hearts and hands in a better place.
I am currently employed by The Babinski Foundation Animal Shelter and hope to find a loving forever home for our animals and a companion for our veterans.

As an avid hunter and outdoorsman, I also enjoy working with clients looking at raw land, lake lots and acreage, either for recreation, investment, or building their future “Dream Home.” Around the area I’m known as the “Earth Mover,” not only for the properties I’ve sold, but also for my “down to earth attitude.” My approach to Buying or Selling a home is; Keep it Simple, Make People Comfortable, and Educated in the process. As a result, 80% of my business is repeat clients, or referrals by satisfied customers.
