Best Relocation Real-Estate Agents in Minneapolis, MN (2026)

1. Jeffrey Dewing

8.8/10

$500K+ · 5 reviews

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.

2. Ben Ganje

9.5/10

$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.

3. Graham Smith

9.1/10

$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.

4. Jim Dropps

9.1/10

$240K–$1.2M · 33 reviews

Jim Dropps has lived in the Sheridan neighborhood of Northeast Minneapolis since the mid-2000s and founded Northeast Real Estate Group, an independent two-agent brokerage, in 2012. His recorded sales cluster almost entirely in Northeast and North Minneapolis neighborhoods — Audubon Park, Waite Park, Windom Park, Holland, Sheridan, and Near North — and his firm markets itself specifically around neighborhood duplexes and starter homes. Public reviews are limited in number but uniformly five-star, and a construction-and-building background in the family gives him a practical angle on the area's older housing stock.

5. Fritz Kroll

8.9/10

$140K–$2.9M · 145 reviews

The downtown Minneapolis condo specialist: 27 years in the business, lives in the North Loop neighborhood he sells, and holds Edina Realty's top Chairman's Circle distinction.

6. Jen Kyllonen

8.8/10

$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.

7. Karissa White

8.7/10

$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.

8. Beth Reilly

8.4/10

$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.

9. Bob Reidell

8.3/10

$150K–$900K

A 46-year Twin Cities veteran whose Grand Avenue team runs almost entirely on repeat clients and referrals.

10. Ryan Haagenson

8.2/10

$244K–$1.6M

A RE/MAX Hall-of-Famer with 16-plus years and a broad Twin Cities book of business, best for clients who want an experienced generalist rather than one narrow specialty.

11. Lana Kalinowski

8.2/10

$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.

12. Katie Fears

8.1/10

$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.

13. Gary Metchnek

8.0/10

$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.

14. Aaron Argent

7.9/10

$145K–$630K

A solo agent headquartered in Blaine with a decade-plus track record and a 4.8-star Redfin rating, covering an unusually wide swath of the metro.

15. Eda Rivers

7.8/10

$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.
