History

Spring Valley Sales Co. was founded in 1979 by Richard “Dick” Schwade in Spring Valley, Minnesota. What once started as a full-time livestock auction facility eventually transformed into a complete farm and home auction business.

In 2022 Kevin & Mindy Grabau purchased Spring Valley Sales Co. from Dick & Julie Schwade. Kevin and Mindy continue to sell everything from the farm to the home, including the real estate. The company’s goals have been, and continue to be, to assist you as a client in marketing and selling your assets, all through effective and expedited selling methods, combined with the continued tradition of innovation, integrity and superior service in mind. Our goal is simple; yielding you the highest possible potential value of your real estate, farm, business and personal property.

To best service you as a potential seller we offer complete Auction Services including Live-Onsite and Online Auctions. We provide comprehensive marketing programs along with innovative Technology with top notch Personnel and Auctioneers.
