Jeffrey Dewing is a 28-plus-year Coldwell Banker Realty veteran working luxury across Edina, Wayzata, Lake Minnetonka and Minneapolis. With a range that runs from the mid-$300Ks past $22M, he pairs a long track record with big-brand marketing reach — a credible choice for luxury sellers who want an experienced hand and a recognizable name.
$2M+
Ellen DeHaven is one of the most established luxury names on Lake Minnetonka — a 40-plus-year Coldwell Banker Realty veteran in Wayzata with more than $800M in career sales and 300-plus lakeshore homes closed. She is the seasoned, top-of-market choice for estate-tier lakefront in the roughly $2.7M–$8.75M range, where experience and a deep buyer network matter more than a large digital presence.
$800K+ · 181 reviews
Ben Ganje leads one of Minnesota's top-producing teams — the Ben Ganje Group at Lakes Sotheby's International Realty in Edina — with more than $1.5B in career sales, 1,500-plus homes closed, and 181 reviews at a perfect 5.0. Across roughly 24 years he's ranked among the top three agents in the state by volume. He's the choice for luxury and new-construction buyers and sellers who want a proven, high-powered team.
$150K–$2.8M · 100 reviews
Graham Smith has run The Graham Smith Team at Keller Williams Integrity Lakes since 2002, building $125M+ in career volume and 100 Zillow reviews at 5.0 (172 across platforms). He's the deeply-reviewed choice for Minneapolis city neighborhoods — from first-time buyers to investment — backed by a full team and two decades in the market.
$300K–$1.2M · 155 reviews
Brian Scates runs his own brokerage, Scates Real Estate, out of the Plymouth / northwest-metro area — a GRI-designated broker with 20-plus years, 800-plus career transactions, and 155 Redfin reviews at 4.9. He's the high-volume, independent-brokerage choice across the west and northwest metro, comfortable from first-time buyers to the upper-mid market.
$475K–$3.9M
Kristi Weinstock leads The Weinstock Group at Coldwell Banker Realty out of Excelsior, on the south shore of Lake Minnetonka. A 20-plus-year veteran and long-running Twin Cities Super Agent, she covers the south-lake and southwest metro across a wide range, from mid-market homes to $3.9M-plus lakefront. A strong choice for buyers and sellers centered on the Excelsior–Shorewood–Chanhassen side of the lake.
$180K–$3M · 23 reviews
A 20-plus-year Chairman's Circle veteran specializing in luxury and historic homes around Minneapolis's Chain of Lakes -- the agent to call for an older or architecturally significant house.
$250K–$890K · 5 reviews
Karissa White has sold real estate in the Bloomington market for close to two decades, working as an associate with RE/MAX Advantage Plus. Her production is heavily concentrated in Bloomington itself, and trailing five-year transaction data shows a roughly even split between buyer- and seller-side closings. Public reviews are uniformly five stars, but the verified count is small — five on RateMyAgent — thin for a career this long.
$220K–$750K · 139 reviews
A second-generation, tech-forward Maple Grove team pairing an outstanding review record with genuine new-construction expertise.
$250K–$1.5M
Tom Nicklow has run Minnetonka Realty, a brokerage carrying the city's name, as broker/owner for the past 14 years, inside a firm with more than three decades of history there. He has sold Twin Cities residential real estate since 1984, holds the NAR's GRI designation, and was named a Mpls/St Paul Magazine "Super Agent" in 2023 and 2024. He works alone rather than leading a team, and covers a broad mix of property types — lakeshore, distressed, land — rather than one narrow niche.
$225K–$2.1M
A hyper-local West Bloomington specialist who, with husband-and-wife partner Dan Burling, has built a 13-year practice concentrated almost entirely in one submarket.
$65K–$2.4M · 173 reviews
A high-volume, all-women boutique team whose social-media-driven marketing has landed it among Minnesota's top 10 teams by sales volume, with real closings in Plymouth.
$275K+
A 30-year Lake Minnetonka waterfront specialist — strong for lakefront or luxury business, less suited to a budget starter-home search.
$150K–$900K
A 46-year Twin Cities veteran whose Grand Avenue team runs almost entirely on repeat clients and referrals.
$350K–$2.4M
A relocation and move-up/downsize specialist ranked in Edina Realty's top 10% company-wide, best suited to luxury and life-transition clients in the $350K-$2.4M range.
$180K–$1.2M · 6 reviews
Katie Fears is an active Edina Realty agent in Eden Prairie (part of the Leicht Fears Group) with a fast-growing practice — 61 homes sold and 21 in the last year, at a perfect 5.0 across her reviews. She's a strong, responsive choice for mid-market buyers and sellers across Eden Prairie and the west metro, from first purchases up to about $1.2M.
$450K–$1.8M
A marketing-background Compass agent posting real $10M-plus annual volume across Minneapolis and the West Metro, verified by RealTrends rather than just self-reported.
$240K–$1.4M
A Bloomington native who grew up in and still lives in the city, selling as part of the 30-plus-year Nancy Walker Team at Coldwell Banker.
$100K–$860K · 87 reviews
A steady, full-service Edina Realty solo agent with a perfect 5-star record and verified buyer-side experience in Plymouth.
$60K–$1.6M
Eda Rivers is an individual Realtor with Compass Minnesota, based out of the brokerage's office in Edina. Zillow attributes roughly 70 career sales to her, about 14 in the past year, across a price range from around $60,000 to $1.6 million and an average near $409,000. Client accounts on Zillow and her brokerage bio consistently describe her as responsive and patient, particularly with first-time buyers. She works as a solo agent rather than leading a team, so the person a client hires is the person handling the transaction.
$285K–$1.7M
An Edina Realty husband-and-wife team with Minnetonka named explicitly as one of four core southwest-metro markets.
Edina's neighborhoods vary widely in character and price; a good agent should be able to walk you through Country Club, Morningside and the rest. Luxury experience helps at the top of the market.
Jeffrey Dewing (8.8) and Ellen DeHaven (9.2) are our current top picks for Edina.
