Josh Tuinder

I’m Josh Tuinder, a REALTOR® with Oxford Realty in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Grand Forks raised me. The Air Force shaped me. Real estate is what I do; Grand Forks is who I am.

I’ve been licensed since 2023 and I’ve helped more than 30 families buy and sell across Greater Grand Forks, East Grand Forks, Thompson, and Manvel. A lot of them were doing this for the first time, or the first time in a long time, and most of them told me the same thing at the closing table: “That was easier and more fun than I thought it would be.” That’s the bar.

Most of my work is with people buying their first home and people outgrowing the one they’ve got, usually somewhere between $250,000 and $500,000. I ended up there on purpose. That’s the range where a bad decision costs you real money and a good one sets you up for the next fifteen years, and it’s the part of this market I know block by block.

When I’m not showing houses, I’m the Flight Line Manager at UND Aerospace. Eight years in the Air Force as an avionics technician on F-15s, 21+ years fueling and towing aircraft since. It’s a blue-collar job, and it made me a better agent. You don’t cut corners when a hundred airplanes and hundreds of student pilots are counting on you to get it right. The same standard applies when it’s somebody’s house.
