8.6/ 10
Very good
Recommended without reservation
A 21-year Coldwell Banker veteran whose Boege | Dean team focuses on the St. Croix Valley's higher end -- lake homes, legacy estates and acreage -- backed by a perfect but numerically thin Yelp record.
Pros
- ✓21 years in the Twin Cities/Western Wisconsin market, with an Accredited Luxury Home Specialist (ALHS) designation
- ✓Part of the Boege | Dean Team, adding marketing and transaction bandwidth beyond a solo agent
- ✓$132.2M in tracked sales volume over the past five years across 219 closed transactions (homes.com)
- ✓Clean 5.0-star rating on Yelp (10 reviews), and bilingual in English and Spanish
- ✓Clear specialization in lake homes, legacy estates and acreage -- property types that reward a specialist
Cons
- ✗Only 10 reviews on Yelp is a thin public record relative to 21 years in business
- ✗As a 3-person team, some transaction steps may involve a teammate rather than Mike directly
- ✗Sales skew toward higher price points, which may mean less day-to-day focus on entry-level buyers
Agent overview
Mike Boege has worked the Stillwater and Western Wisconsin market for more than two decades and is a partner in the Boege | Dean Team at Coldwell Banker Realty, alongside Abby Dean and Jacqui Nordstrom. Homes.com tracks 219 closed sales over the past five years worth $132.2 million, averaging about $604K per sale -- consistent with a practice built around distinctive, higher-value property rather than high-volume turnover.
Core specialties
Lake homes & legacy estates
Mike's Accredited Luxury Home Specialist (ALHS) designation and his team's marketing are built around distinctive, higher-value property -- lake homes, legacy estates and acreage -- rather than high-volume turnover.
Seller marketing & exposure
His team's own materials emphasize positioning listings for the widest possible audience through modern marketing and agent-network reach, aimed at sellers of harder-to-price, distinctive homes.
Commission & fees
Not publicly listed; typically negotiable
Who this agent is for
Sellers of distinctive St. Croix Valley property
Legacy estates, acreage and lake homes that need specialized marketing and pricing are squarely his team's focus.
Buyers seeking lake or luxury property
His ALHS designation and team resources suit buyers navigating a competitive higher-end market.
Not for
Budget-focused first-time buyers hunting entry-level condos will likely find a dedicated first-time-buyer specialist a better fit than a team built around distinctive, higher-end property.
Verdict
Boege is a sound pick for sellers or buyers of higher-end St. Croix Valley property who want a specialist team behind the transaction; his public review count is small, so ask for direct references given the size of purchase typical of his book of business.

Areas served
Common questions about Michael Boege
Does Mike Boege work with buyers, or mainly list homes for sellers?
Both -- Coldwell Banker's materials show him representing buyers and sellers, though his designations (ALHS, legacy estates, lake homes) lean toward higher-end listings and seller-side marketing.
What areas around Stillwater does Mike Boege cover?
His team describes its territory as the Twin Cities metro and Western Wisconsin, with a particular focus on St. Croix Valley communities.
Is Mike Boege only for luxury buyers?
His designations and $132.2M in five-year tracked volume point toward higher-value properties, but Coldwell Banker's own profile also describes him serving 'a diverse portfolio of clients, from CEOs... to first-time home buyers.'
