7.3/ 10
Good
Solid choice, some limitations
A solo Coldwell Banker agent with confirmed transactions inside Minnetonka and an unusually hands-on read on home condition from a prior career in TV home improvement.
Pros
- ✓Confirmed recent transactions inside Minnetonka itself, not just the surrounding lake region — a sale on March Circle closed at $481,000
- ✓Unusual, verifiable specialty: 11 years hosting the nationally syndicated home-improvement show Hometime
- ✓Backed by Coldwell Banker Realty's brand and marketing infrastructure
- ✓Comfortable in a real, moderate price band (roughly $450,000-$875,000), not exclusively top-end luxury
Cons
- ✗No independently published review count or star rating found on Zillow, Google, or her own sites
- ✗Years of experience specifically as a licensed REALTOR (versus her TV career) isn't published anywhere we could verify
- ✗Solo practitioner — no named team to cover showings or negotiations when she's unavailable

Who this agent is for
Buyers who want a contractor's eye

Sellers in the $450,000-$875,000 range
Her confirmed recent transactions cluster here, matching a typical Minnetonka move-up sale.
Not for
Buyers hunting ultra-luxury lakefront estates may be better served by an agent whose track record is built specifically around that segment.
Verdict
A solo Coldwell Banker agent with a genuinely distinctive edge and real, confirmed transactions inside Minnetonka — worth a call for a typical Minnetonka home sale, though her review history isn't documented anywhere we could find.
