Brian Scates
Brian is an excellent agent. He is professional and a tremendous advocate in getting the property you want and need. He worked tirelessly, even during a vacation, to successfully secure the cottage of our dreams. He worked hard for us, even remotely, having never even met us in person until we closed. Experienced and dedicated, I would highly recommend Brian and everyone in his office.
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh is excellent to work with! She helped me find a great house after a lot of searching. She responded quickly, was enthusiastic, and was able to share what she didn’t like or what appeared concerning about each home we looked at. She was not pushy and was able to explain anything I had questions about. I would highly recommend this realtor!

My fiancé and I had the pleasure of working with Brian and we can't express how thankful we are for making that choice. Brian knows the west metro area better than anyone else. He asked all the right question and spent several late nights and weekends working his tail off to help us get to the finish line. Not only was he an incredible advisor, but we truly enjoyed touring houses with him and had some fun laughs along the way.

We had an incredible experience working with Raleigh while buying our home in Plymouth, MN. Even though we were based out of state, she made time for us when we visited in person and helped us make the most of every showing. She went above and beyond to keep everything moving smoothly, always keeping us informed and organized throughout the process. Her expertise really stood out during negotiations—she advocated for us and helped secure a great house. What could have been a stressful experience felt straightforward and manageable thanks to her communication, professionalism, and dedication. We always felt like we had someone in our corner. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable realtor!

I had an outstanding experience working with Raleigh and can’t recommend her highly enough. She knows the west metro (Minnetonka/Wayzata area) incredibly well and consistently brought me opportunities I wouldn’t have found as quickly or at all on my own — including off-market homes, which was really impressive. Beyond her market knowledge, she was extremely thoughtful and supportive throughout the process. I was navigating a home purchase during a divorce, and she handled everything with empathy, discretion, and a clear understanding of what mattered most — especially making sure my kids felt considered and included. At one point, after our offer was accepted and inspections were complete, I realized I hadn’t had a proper second walkthrough because I was out of town. She went out of her way to coordinate another showing so my kids could see the home before closing. That meant a lot to me and really reflects how much she cares about her clients beyond just the transaction. She was always available, highly responsive, and incredibly helpful during negotiations. In fact, her insight and guidance during that phase likely made the difference in me securing the home. If you’re looking for someone who combines deep local expertise with genuine care and professionalism, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Raleigh.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Brian, Corbin, and the amazing Scates Real Estate team on both the purchase of my new home and sale of my old house. They guided me through every step of the process for both transactions with regular and clear communication as well as thoughtful and honest feedback. I never had a doubt that they had my best interests in mind. Buying and/or selling a home can certainly be an overwhelming event, but I was so lucky to have these professionals by my side! I could not recommend them highly enough if you are looking to jump into the real estate market.
Brian Scates
Brian was on top of things from the first day we met with him. Very thorough and answered all our questions along the way and stayed in touch even if it was after hours. We sold and purchased with Brian and it was a great and smooth experience.
Brian Scates
Brian and his team have sold multiple houses for use and always professional. Looking forward to using them again in the future.
Raleigh Golden
We did not know Raleigh until we met to view a home we saw on Zillow. What a great surprise. We will be friends for life. Just a great agent. We know many agents. Raleigh is a cut above. We first viewed the home with Raleigh who let us know the seller had accepted a contingent offer. But she insisted we look anyway. Just in case. She stayed on top of the situation with the sellers agent gathering as much insight as possible. Suddenly the home was headed back to the market. She made sure to let the other agent know of our potential buyer’s interest until we could get back to town and see it again. Raleigh wanted us to be sure we wanted to take on the big property. Meeting our needs was her top priority. In the end the seller met us buyers and the rest is history. Ralieighs insights and professional persistence were key to us putting a deal together that satisfied both parties.
Raleigh Golden
As first-time homebuyers, we had such a great experience with Raleigh! From our first meeting, she was so easy to work with and really made the whole process feel less overwhelming. We loved that she listed to what we were looking for, offered her professional market knowledge, and was able to help us find the perfect home in the exact location we wanted and within our budget. When it came time to put in an offer, she walked us through every step! We couldn't recommend her enough!!
Brian Scates
Brian is a great real estate agent. He is very knowledgeable about the Twin City area, he communicates clearly and concisely, always keeps me informed as to what's happening with both the purchase of my new house and the sale of my old house.
Brian Scates
Brian was very knowledgeable and made the home buying and condo renting process SEAMLESS. Couldn't recommend him more.
Brian Scates
Brian helped my husband and I secure our dream home the day it went on the market. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area, architecture of the home, and the overall negotiation/buying process. We then used Brian and his rockstar Corbin to secure renters for our Condo they we decided to keep as well. They found us renters within 48 hours of hitting the market after their photographer took excellent pictures. Overall it was just just a joy to work with Brian and all of his team and we couldn't be happier.
Brian Scates
Brian was consistently responsive, professional, and well-organized throughout our home buying journey. He and his team made themselves available at all times, answered every question clearly, and kept us well-informed from start to finish—something I really valued as a first-time buyer with a lot of questions.His experience in the Wayzata and Twin Cities market came through, and his steady presence helped us navigate key negotiation moments and inspection surprises with confidence.If you're looking for a dependable, communicative, and experienced realtor who can help you navigate every step of the buying process, Brian is someone you can count on.
Brian Scates
Brian and the Scates Real Estate team was simply great to work with. They were super prompt with communications, bent out of their way to accommodate showings when we were coming into the cities on the weekends, and were transparent and honest during pricing and purchasing. Simply put, I'd definitely recommend working with them.
Brian Scates
I would strongly recommend Brian and his team to friends and family. They are very knowledge and transparent, always eager to help.
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh was a joy to work with. Her real estate knowledge went above and beyond with recommendations on carpet cleaning, plumbers, handy men, cleaners and Radon Remediation. She made it a whole lot easier for a Senior Citizen to downsize.
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh was great to work with and an immense help throughout the process! She helped me with a quick close while negotiating great terms. She knew the process and was extremely responsive. I would absolutely recommend her!!
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh did an amazing job helping me buy a condo. I am an out of state buyer and had complete faith and trust in her to facilitate my viewings, make and negotiate an offer, and ultimately gain confidence about relocating. I gave her my criteria, and she identified several fantastic properties for me to consider - all over the Twin Cities. She and my sister visited properties and face timed me throughout - I made a purchase site unseen because I trusted her so completely. I am 100% satisfied with my condo and building, and have Raleigh to thank as my realtor. She is positive, energetic and extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful. Highly recommend Raleigh!!!
Raleigh Golden
Working with Raleigh was an absolute blessing, especially as my husband and I were new to the Twin Cities and nervous first-time home buyers. From day one, she put us first—treating us not just like clients, but like family. It was clear she always had our best interest at heart, constantly anticipating our needs and wants. Her kindness, honesty, flexibility, and tireless work ethic made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She truly fought for us every step of the way, and because of that, we didn’t just find a home—we gained a friend! I’m forever grateful for everything Raleigh did to make our dream of homeownership a reality. Highly, highly recommend.
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh did a great job for us. She stepped right in when asked and we were viewing properties with her that afternoon. She was enthusiastic about our plans. She gave us good information about the community. She answered all our questions. She was prompt, friendly, and helpful every step of the way. Her referrals for closing were all very professional, efficient, and easy to work with. She will end up being one of our first friends in Saint Paul.
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh listened to us and guided us along our first home buying journey. When we found our place she used her vast knowledge to negotiate a deal for us. Raleigh continues to offer her knowledge and support. Thank you Raleigh!
Raleigh Golden
Raleigh was an excellent guide from the time we contacted her to begin looking at condos. She checked in with us regularly, left no question unanswered, and was always willing to go out of her way to find solutions to any problem that arose as we tried to complete the purchase process from abroad. Raleigh was, without a doubt, our biggest support in making it through the closing, always willing to contact and communicate with anyone involved. I would highly recommend Raleigh to anyone looking for a new home or to invest in a property. She is by far the kindest and the most competent agent we have ever worked with.

Brian is very dependable and honest!! He truly was looking out for me! I also liked how Brian had reliable contacts when I asked for suggestions.

Brian provided helpful guidance on things to do before listing our house for sale. By following these guidelines we were able to expedite the sale of our house for more than the asking price.
Brian Scates
We worked with Brian and his team to both buy and sell and highly recommend them! Brian was extremely knowledgeable about the condition of homes we toured and made the home-buying experience pain-free. He and his team were very responsive and helped us get an offer accepted on a house within the first week of touring! He was also great at keeping stress to a minimum with the sale of our older home, giving recommendations for what we should do to get it ready to sell and providing us with professional contractors to take care of smaller projects prior to listing.Thank you, Brian and Corbin!

Brian was very professional and helped make the process easy for us. His expertise of the whole process from listing the house as "coming soon", to showings, and the open house brought lots of traffic and interest and quite a few of very nice offers by the end of the open house day. Very successful!
Brian Scates
Brian and his team were very knowledgable about pricing our home to sell for the highest price in a short amount of time. We received 4 offers in less that 48 hours and sold it for more than asking price. Pretty good especially considering interest rates have doubled from a year ago. Great work Brian and we will certainly refer you to our friends and family!
Brian Scates
Brian is one of those agents that isn't just doing this as a side gig. He really cares about the real estate field and the market and his clients. He goes the extra mile with the analytics he provides the buyers/sellers, the marketing tools he uses, the guidance he gives and the way he prepares for each meeting, each open house, etc. I have worked with a number of different agents and not until I met Brian did I really get a chance to see someone who takes this business seriously and puts his clients outcomes at top of mind. It has always felt like a transaction before, this time it felt like a real connection.
Brian Scates
We got 5 bids, all over the asking price, within the first 36 hours. Brian knows his stuff. He's all business. Extremely responsive. A pro!

We were lucky to have him as our realtor and good friend. Thank you again.

Brian Scates & Adam Darula are your textbook perfect realtors - professional, timely, responsive, easy to understand, thorough, honest, and transparent.

Whenever we expressed concerns about a property's layout, location, condition, or price, they helped reassure us that the right location and home would come within our preferred budget, and we could find a home that we'd be able to make our own. We also later sold the same property with the Scates Real Estate Team when we were relocating out of state - we had a ton of competitive offers and were able to accept an offer above our asking price within a couple of days of putting the townhome on the market. Thank you Brian Scates and Scates Real Estate Team for all of your help! You helped us purchase AND sell our first home. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Navigating this crazy market as a first time home buyers, we realized quickly what an asset Brian and his team were to our success in becoming homeowners. He was knowledgeable, quick to communicate and very honest when it came to touring properties. There was never a sales pitch and he took the time to tell you, from experience, what he sees in the properties you are touring (good, bad and the ugly). Not only did we feel confident in making a competitive offer but we also felt educated about the home buying process and what was happening in today's market. If you want to work with someone who is professional, knowledgeable about real estate and makes you feel like you are top priority, work with Brian, you won't be disappointed.
