Beth Nordaune

9.0/10

$200K–$900K · 1134 reviews

Beth Nordaune has led Rochester's Enclave Team, formerly the Nordaune Team, for roughly two decades, and recently moved the operation's brokerage affiliation from RE/MAX Results to Real Brokerage. Aggregator data citing Zillow attributes about 1,134 reviews at a 5.0 average to her and the team combined, the largest reviewed footprint found for any Rochester-based real estate operation in this research. The team now runs close to two dozen people out of offices in Rochester and Eagan, so a client who calls Beth Nordaune may end up working mainly with a teammate rather than her personally. That tradeoff between scale and personal attention is the central thing to weigh here.

Wendy Carson

8.9/10

$150K–$2.5M · 155 reviews

Wendy Carson has worked out of RE/MAX Results' Apple Valley office since 1998, one of the longer continuous tenures among agents based in the south metro. Her practice spans first-time buyers through executive-level and relocation clients across a wide swath of the Twin Cities and western Wisconsin. Public review counts are unusually large for an individual agent -- well over a hundred logged ratings across Zillow and an independent aggregator, plus a separate Yelp page -- and are consistently close to perfect. She operates as a solo associate rather than under a named team brand.

Melissa Johnson

8.6/10

$95K–$3M · 18 reviews

A 26-year Burnsville broker who partners with fellow agent Lisa Rieken, and the one agent on this list with an independently-verified 5-star review record.

Scott Hutchinson

8.5/10

$250K–$1.5M · 56 reviews

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.

Becca Brinkman

8.5/10

$225K–$918K · 11 reviews

A Northfield native with two decades of local closings and a clean 5.0-star record, best suited to buyers and sellers who want an agent who already knows the block.

Steve Fiorella

8.5/10

$275K–$750K

A two-decade-plus Apple Valley fixture running a genuine multi-agent team out of RE/MAX Results' own Apple Valley office, with a directly verified license and address.
