I could not recommend Scates real estate more. Brian and Corbin are unbelievable. They recently helped my family sell my late father’s home. Thru this difficult time they navigated us to a very favorable result.

Brian helped my husband and I secure our dream home the day it went on the market. He was extremely knowledgable 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 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 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 and his team sold our Mom's condo for us did a great job.
Always helpful, reachable and positive. It was not an easy sale but
we could count on Scates Realtors to offer guidance and an energetic approach to showings and potential buyer engagement. I highly recommend them.

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!

We can’t thank Brian enough for making our first home-buying experience smooth and enjoyable! From the start of our home search this spring, he was always available and ensured we could tour homes on our schedule (which was tough given we both worked 5 days a week downtown). During our home search, Brian consistently took the time to explain the condition of each home we visited (and there were quite a few!), making sure our needs and wants were always prioritized.
When we finally found the home we really wanted, Brian expertly guided us through the negotiation process, ensuring we fully understood each step (which was new to us). He also connected us with an excellent financing partner, a reliable contractor when we really needed one before close, and even landscapers to help us settle in after the sale.
We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Brian. My wife and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable realtor.
Thanks again, Brian and Corbin!
