Kathryn Jamison
Coldwell Banker Realty · Northfield, MN
Updated July 2026
Editorial evaluation
8.2/ 10
Very good
Strong public evidence, with limitations still worth reviewing
Evidence confidence
Low10/100
Documentation completeness and reliability—not agent quality.
Grew up in Northfield, moved away, then deliberately moved back to raise her own kids there — a genuinely local agent with three decades in the business.
Pros
- ✓Rare depth of personal local connection: grew up in Northfield, then chose to move back and raise a family there
- ✓90 closed sides over the trailing 5 years ($38.3M total) — strong, consistent volume
- ✓Recognized as a 'Super Real Estate Agent,' a designation limited to roughly the top 3–5% of Twin Cities agents by client satisfaction
- ✓Specifically skilled at staging — helps sellers prepare homes to match what buyers in the market are looking for
Cons
- ✗No aggregated public star rating/review count located (Zillow/Google) to independently verify satisfaction claims
- ✗Brokerage's administrative office is listed in Lakeville (Coldwell Banker's South Regional office), about 25 minutes from Northfield, even though her practice and personal ties are centered there

Agent overview
Kathryn Jamison's family relocated to Northfield when she was seven, and after college and time in Minneapolis, New York, and Paris, she returned specifically to raise her children in town. She's held her Minnesota license since 1994 and works Northfield alongside the small towns that ring it — Dundas, Nerstrand, Webster, and Dennison.
Core specialties
Listing Preparation & Staging
Bio specifically highlights staging expertise — preparing homes to meet current buyer expectations before listing.
Commission & fees
Not publicly listed; typically negotiable
Who this agent is for
Sellers who want help presenting a home
Her staging focus is a concrete, documented skill for sellers unsure how to prep a listing.
Clients in Northfield's satellite towns
Maintains dedicated coverage of Dundas, Webster, Dennison, and Nerstrand in addition to Northfield proper.
Not for
Buyers or sellers who want their agent's brokerage office to be physically in Northfield — her Coldwell Banker administrative office is based in Lakeville.
Verdict
A well-credentialed, genuinely local agent with a strong sales record and a distinctive personal tie to the town; the lack of an aggregated review score is the main gap in an otherwise solid profile.
Editorial score: 8.2 / 10 · Very good · Evidence confidence: low (10/100)
Ranking disclosure
Why this ranking appears in this order
This profile evaluates Kathryn Jamison 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
- KathrynJamison.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.
