Ranking disclosure
Why this ranking appears in this order
This page compares 7 researched agents serving Deephaven. The displayed order follows the published five-factor score. The math is fixed; the five input scores are editorial evaluations of the public evidence available through September 2026.
- Ranking formula
- Local knowledge 25% + client reviews 25% + market expertise 20% + communication 15% + specialization fit 15%.
- Time period
- Evidence reviewed through September 2026. Review totals are snapshots; career claims may cover longer periods and must state that context.
- Objective vs. editorial
- The weighted calculation is deterministic after the inputs are assigned. Selecting evidence and assigning each dimension score require editorial judgment.
- Commercial independence
- Agents cannot purchase inclusion, a score, numbered position, or favorable verdict. Any sponsorship must appear outside the editorial ranking.
- Transaction-data boundary
- This edition does not use a private MLS feed or a standardized file of verified 2025 closings. Sales volume, homes sold, sale-to-list ratio, and days on market are not assumed when attributable evidence is unavailable.
- Independent corroboration
- Government records control licensing facts. Brokerage, agent, review-platform, award, and production claims are kept distinct; agreement across sources raises confidence but does not erase source limitations.
What to look for in a Deephaven agent
Deephaven's low inventory means an agent's local relationships and early knowledge of coming listings are decisive. Waterfront and near-lakefront expertise plus Minnetonka 276 district knowledge are the core requirements.
