JOSH PELOVSKY (right) Outside of going above and beyond as a REALTOR, Josh enjoys hanging out in the wilderness fishing, hunting, or just enjoying a microbrew overlooking the scenery. He enjoys spending time with family, friends and his dog, Rocky. Josh grew up in Owatonna, MN, went to school in Duluth, MN and finally settled in NE Minneapolis in 2008. Josh has developed a keen feel for the region. Josh is also an avid Minnesota Vikings fan. SKOL! OUR HISTORY Nick and Josh met in 2010 by chance and their relationship blossomed into a strong friendship through their love for the Minnesota Vikings. Although their business relationship went different ways through executive sales/sales leadership, they decided to ditch the corporate careers to pursue their "passion for people" while helping guide clients through the ever changing Twin Cities real estate market. Whether buying, selling or investing, we are ready to effectively guide you through the process. Like-minded with the same core values, Josh and Nick founded the Victory Home Team in 2017 after several years of success as solo agents. Victory Home Team is a real estate team designed to redefine your real estate experience (while earning your business for life). Welcome to the Victory Home Team family!
