7.9/ 10
Good
Solid choice, some limitations
A Stillwater-based Lakes Sotheby's advisor with a clear, well-documented niche in Woodbury-area luxury sales and senior downsizing — but no public review count to independently verify her volume.
Pros
- ✓Clear specialization in two well-defined niches: luxury sales and senior downsizing/life transitions
- ✓Global Real Estate Advisor designation through Sotheby's International Realty's luxury network
- ✓Active Woodbury Area Chamber of Commerce member with an explicit Woodbury/East Metro service focus
- ✓Client testimonials consistently mention responsiveness and calm handling of stressful transitions
- ✓Dual MN/WI licensing broadens her reach across the St. Croix Valley
Cons
- ✗No public aggregate review count or rating (Zillow or Google) could be verified at publication time
- ✗Home office is in Stillwater rather than Woodbury proper — confirm she's actively covering your specific neighborhood
- ✗At roughly a decade in the business, her tenure is shorter than the other veteran agents in this Woodbury comparison set
