Very good
Recommended without reservation
A Lakeville-headquartered RE/MAX team lead with a strong, independently verified review record and genuine range from bank-owned resale to $1.5M new construction.
Pros
- ✓56 reviews at 4.9 stars on Birdeye — a solid, independently verifiable record
- ✓Office is physically in Lakeville, at RE/MAX Advantage Plus's home location
- ✓Genuine range across traditional resale, bank-owned/short-sale, and new construction
- ✓Team structure means showings and questions aren't bottlenecked on one calendar
- ✓Listing history spans from starter townhomes to $1.5M custom builds
Cons
- ✗Team model — the associate who handles your showings may not always be Scott personally
- ✗Public bios list inconsistent years-of-experience figures, so verify his personal tenure directly
- ✗56 reviews is solid but smaller than the largest review bases in the same office
Agent overview
Scott Hutchinson leads the Scott Hutchinson Real Estate Team out of RE/MAX Advantage Plus's Lakeville office — the brokerage's founding location — with a 4.9-star average across 56 reviews on Birdeye. His listing history runs from roughly $250K townhomes to a $1.5M custom new-build, and he covers the wider South Metro (Prior Lake, Apple Valley, Farmington, Burnsville, Elko New Market) from that same Lakeville base.

Who this agent is for
Buyers navigating new construction or a distressed listing
His mix of new-build and bank-owned/short-sale deals suggests real comfort with the extra paperwork each involves.
Clients who want team-based backup
Useful if you'd rather have more than one point of contact available for showings and questions.
Not for
Sellers who specifically want one solo agent personally handling every showing and call.
Verdict
A well-reviewed, genuinely Lakeville-based option with real range across property types — worth a call especially if new construction or a distressed-property purchase is part of the plan.
