8.3/ 10
Very good
Recommended without reservation
A 30-year Lake Minnetonka waterfront specialist — strong for lakefront or luxury business, less suited to a budget starter-home search.
Pros
- ✓30 years focused specifically on the Lake Minnetonka market, with Minnetonka named explicitly in his service area
- ✓Third-generation lakefront property owner — firsthand knowledge of waterfront-specific issues like dock rights and shoreline rules
- ✓Coldwell Banker International President's Premier member (top 1% globally) with CRS and GRI designations
- ✓Recent listings span from entry-level condos to multimillion-dollar lakefront estates, not just the top end
- ✓Works with a dedicated licensed partner (Emily Lieder) rather than juggling every transaction solo
Cons
- ✗Team model: expect Emily Lieder to handle a meaningful share of marketing and logistics, not just Gregg personally
- ✗Public marketing leans heavily on lakefront/luxury credentials, which may read as overkill for a modest inland Minnetonka listing
- ✗No independently verifiable review count or star rating turned up on Zillow or Google — the praise we found lives on his own site and BBB profile
Agent overview
Gregg Larsen has worked the Lake Minnetonka market with Coldwell Banker Realty for more than 30 years, building a name specifically around lakefront and near-lake sales that include Minnetonka's own shoreline. A third-generation lakefront property owner, he pairs that personal history with Coldwell Banker's Global Luxury marketing platform and partners with licensed agent Emily Lieder on client work.
Core specialties
Lake Minnetonka Waterfront
Three decades concentrated on lakefront and near-lake sales, including Minnetonka's own shoreline neighborhoods.

Who this agent is for
Waterfront buyers and sellers
Anyone transacting on or near Lake Minnetonka who wants an agent whose entire practice has been built around that shoreline.
Luxury move-up sellers
Minnetonka sellers at the higher end who want a nationally-recognized negotiator and a two-person team handling marketing.
Not for
First-time buyers hunting a budget starter home may find his lakefront-heavy brand a mismatch for their search.
Verdict
One of the most tenured names tied specifically to the Lake Minnetonka market — a safe call for waterfront or luxury business in Minnetonka, as long as you're comfortable working with his two-person team rather than one person alone.

Areas served
Common questions about Gregg Larsen
Does Gregg Larsen actually work in the city of Minnetonka, or just the lake towns around it?
Both — his published service area explicitly names Minnetonka and Minnetonka Beach alongside Wayzata, Excelsior, Orono, and the other Lake Minnetonka-area suburbs.
Is he a fit for a first home purchase in Minnetonka?
He can handle it, but his practice and recognition are built around lakefront and luxury sales, so a budget-focused first-time buyer may get more focused attention from an agent who specializes in that segment.
Does he work alone?
No — he's paired with licensed partner Emily Lieder, who handles a meaningful share of marketing and client-facing logistics.
