Bob Reidell
RE/MAX Results (Reidell-Estey & Associates) · Saint Paul, MN
Updated July 2026
Editorial evaluation
8.3/ 10
Very good
Strong public evidence, with limitations still worth reviewing
Evidence confidence
Low10/100
Documentation completeness and reliability—not agent quality.
A 46-year Twin Cities veteran whose Grand Avenue team runs almost entirely on repeat clients and referrals.
Pros
- ✓46 years of Twin Cities experience and 2,000+ transactions, so he's seen most market cycles
- ✓80% referral rate is a strong, independently-cited signal of repeat client satisfaction
- ✓A+ Better Business Bureau rating with no unresolved complaints on file
- ✓Team model (Reidell-Estey & Associates) means backup coverage for showings and paperwork
- ✓Works across first-time buyer, relocation, and investment purchases rather than one narrow niche
Cons
- ✗Team model: depending on timing, you may work partly with a team associate rather than Bob personally at every step
- ✗No large third-party review count is independently verifiable online despite the long track record — his reputation leans on referrals, BBB standing, and on-site testimonials rather than a big public review tally
- ✗Generalist practice rather than a narrow specialty, which trades some depth for breadth

Agent overview
Bob Reidell has sold real estate in the Twin Cities since 2000 and estimates he's helped more than 2,000 families buy or sell, working out of Reidell-Estey & Associates' office on Grand Avenue in Saint Paul. He built the business on referrals rather than marketing spend — he says about 80% of his clients are repeat business or referrals — and still personally works with first-time buyers alongside relocation and investment purchases.
Core specialties
First-Time Buyers
Bob's team profile is explicitly built around first-time buyer education and hand-holding, which shows up repeatedly in client testimonials on the team site.
Referral-Driven Full-Service
With 2,000+ transactions and 46 years in business, he covers buying, selling, relocation, and investment purchases across the Twin Cities.
Commission & fees
Not publicly listed; typically negotiable
Who this agent is for
First-time buyers who want patience
His long track record with first-time buyers means he's used to explaining the basics without rushing the process.
Clients who value tenure over flash
If decades of local relationships matter more than a slick digital presence, this is a fit.
Not for
Buyers or sellers who want one dedicated point of contact for every single showing and call, given the team structure.
Verdict
A safe, veteran choice for Saint Paul buyers and sellers who want a long-tenured, referral-backed agent — just confirm up front whether you'll work directly with Bob or a team associate.
Editorial score: 8.3 / 10 · Very good · Evidence confidence: low (10/100)
Ranking disclosure
Why this ranking appears in this order
This profile evaluates Bob Reidell against other researched agents using the same scoring model; it is not a statewide MLS production ranking. The displayed order follows the published five-factor score. The math is fixed; the five input scores are editorial evaluations of the public evidence available through July 2026.
- Ranking formula
- Local knowledge 25% + client reviews 25% + market expertise 20% + communication 15% + specialization fit 15%.
- Time period
- Evidence reviewed through July 2026. Review totals are snapshots; career claims may cover longer periods and must state that context.
- Objective vs. editorial
- The weighted calculation is deterministic after the inputs are assigned. Selecting evidence and assigning each dimension score require editorial judgment.
- Commercial independence
- Agents cannot purchase inclusion, a score, numbered position, or favorable verdict. Any sponsorship must appear outside the editorial ranking.
- Transaction-data boundary
- This edition does not use a private MLS feed or a standardized file of verified 2025 closings. Sales volume, homes sold, sale-to-list ratio, and days on market are not assumed when attributable evidence is unavailable.
- Independent corroboration
- Government records control licensing facts. Brokerage, agent, review-platform, award, and production claims are kept distinct; agreement across sources raises confidence but does not erase source limitations.
Evidence captured for this profile
- Minnesota license record
- No license number is stored in this profile; use the state lookup for current status.
- Public review aggregate
- No review aggregate is recorded; missing data is not treated as zero.
- Professional first-party source
- ReidellEstey.com is linked for direct review of the agent's current public claims.
Exact field-level source URLs are not yet available for every narrative claim. Until they are, production and award statements should be treated as attributed public claims—not as independently audited MLS facts.
