“Haewon Park helped me buy a townhome in Eden Prairie this fall, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. We were buying from Iowa while I was starting a new job in Minnesota, so we needed an agent who could be our eyes on the ground. Haewon was exactly that. She video-walked properties for us, gave honest opinions on condition and HOA health, and knew the Eden Prairie market well enough to tell us right away which listings were priced well and which weren’t. When we found the right home, she negotiated hard and got the price down, which made a real difference for us. Through inspection, financing, and title, she kept every party on schedule and answered my questions within the hour, every time. We closed on time on October 26 with no surprises. As a licensed REALTOR in Iowa myself, I pay close attention to how other agents run a transaction. Haewon’s communication, organization, and negotiation skills are top tier. If you’re relocating to the Twin Cities or buying from out of state, she’s the agent to call.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Independence has tightened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up modestly about 10 percent year over year while homes sold are down nearly 35 percent. Contract activity has shifted, as pending sales have more than doubled compared with a year ago, hinting at more deals moving toward closing even as new listings have dipped slightly.
Pricing has adjusted down from last year’s highs, with the typical home value off roughly 17 percent year over year and the median list price down about 9 percent over the same period. At the same time, the average sale-to-list ratio is holding just under 100 percent and the share of homes selling above list has edged a bit higher than a year ago, suggesting sellers who price correctly are still achieving near-asking outcomes.
Conditions are more balanced than in the recent past, as months of supply has climbed to around 4.6, more than doubling year over year and easing some pressure on buyers. Even with that added breathing room and a median time on market of just 17 days, Independence is still categorized as a seller’s market, so pricing strategy and timing matter on both sides of the table. Buyers and sellers can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these trends and can guide their next move.

“Daisy was absolutely wonderful to work with and made the very frightening experience of being a first time homebuyer feel like a walk in the park. From assisting with lending to negotiating with the sellers and title company she was a dream to work with. She was very responsive to texts and calls (we were negotiating via text while I was at the state fair and even at a concert! Lots of late evening conversations and concessions from the sellers!) She really helped me through the entire process making sure all of my questions and concerns were addressed from start to close. I’m also a Veteran and she is familiar with the VA loan and inspection process and all went smoothly. At closing she brought us a huge balloon bouquet and a cute flower arrangement and then left a large gift basket with champagne and other goodies to enjoy at our new home! She really just went above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a home. Thank you so much Daisy, you helped make my dream of home ownership a reality!”
“Angel was an excellent realtor. This was our first time buying a home. Angel was always available with answers to our home-buying questions. Angel is professional, punctual, and offers advice with the buyer's interest in mind. I would highly recommend Angel to my family and friends. I am open to working with Angel again in the future if the opportuniy arose.”
“Raleigh was amazing! She helped make the process go smooth and quick. She made sure I had all my questions answered and advocated on my behalf for any issues we had with the property. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy!”
“We are extremely happy with the job Erin did helping us sell our home! She was tenacious, dedicated, and always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. She stayed on top of every detail and never gave up, even in this challenging market. Her professionalism, persistence, and commitment made a real difference throughout the process. We had such a great experience working with Erin that we have recommend her to our children. Erin is a realtor who cares about her clients and will work for the best possible outcome. We highly recommend Erin!”
“Jordan was great to work with! He was incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely cared about helping us find the right home. In a tough housing market, he stayed positive, patient, and made time to tour multiple houses with us until we found the right fit. He’s a great guy, fun to be around, and truly made the process a better experience. We highly recommend Jordan to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“max did such an amazing job, helping us find a home and he was also very patience with us. we are so grateful for everything that he was done for my family once again thank you max for everything you did for us!!!!!!!! we really appreciate all your hard work.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Michael! From start to finish, he truly went above and beyond to make the entire process of selling my home as smooth and stress-free as possible. Michael was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to take the extra time to answer my questions and talk through anything that came up. I never felt like I was just another client — he genuinely cared about making sure I felt comfortable and confident throughout the process. Selling a home and making a big move can be stressful, but having Michael in my corner made such a difference. He was professional, patient, honest, and proactive every step of the way. I’m extremely grateful for everything he did and couldn’t recommend him more highly. If you’re looking for a realtor who will truly go above and beyond for you, Michael is your guy!”
“Steve did a solid job helping my wife and I figure out and land our first home in Hopkins. He was responsive and gave us great home advice during the search process, and was helpful during the short turnaround time we had for the inspection & closing.”
“My realtor Kate Michaels was fantastic. My house sold over asking in only a couple weeks! She was always available to answer my questions and made me feel so comfortable throughout the process. I look forward to working with her again on the next one!”
“Peter was AMAZING!! He helped us from the beginning, and as first time homebuyers we didn’t know much about the process or what to expect, but he made sure to always inform us and help us in every way possible. He went above and beyond, always replying quick and with a kind spirit, sincerely if you’re looking for a realtor, there’s no one better than Peter”
“Stevie was so incredibly patient and helpful in our home search and beyond. Couldn't recommend her enough.”
“In short - Nessa is amazing! I can't recommend her enough. We had complicated transactions both on the buying and selling side. Nessa went above and beyond to help us through every step of the process. She knows her stuff, and she's fantastic to work with - especially during high-stress transactions.”
“Todd and Deena Anderson exceeded my expectations as realtors. When we signed them as our selling agents, I thought I was merely getting access to the MLS listing service, a few open houses, and (paying) a reasonably low commission rate. What I got in return was much more: Todd and Deena were key to our home selling FAST, and with ABOVE-ASKING offers. On the very FIRST day the home was on the market, we received TWO offers! (And n=13 requests for showings). What Todd and Deena specifically did for us: 1.) Strategically priced the home. Based on their analysis of the local real estate market and the three hours they spent touring our home, they PRICED the home at a point where it would attract a lot of attention and quality buyers, and that's exactly what happened. 2.) They provided key insight and advice on how to stage the home and helped us choose the key "polishing" efforts while prepping the home for the sale. 3.) They guided us with prompt and clear communication from start-to-finish; answering an enormous number of questions along the way. Todd and Deena provided a high quality service at great value.”
“We had such a great experience working with Dustin! He was always willing to answer our questions, even at odd hours, and was so patient with us throughout the whole process. He never made us feel pressured or like we were just another sale. Dustin genuinely cared about helping us find the right home, and we really appreciated how much he did for us. We would definitely recommend him!”
“Al Hawkins was a pleasure to work with as first time home buyers! He was very responsive and accommodating throughout the whole process. I truly appreciated how he handles feedbacks and his openness to talk through them and provide recommendations. He was literally with us every step of the way leaving no room for assumptions or confusion. My wife and I are blessed to have worked with Al as an agent that became a friend.”
“Skip has helped us purchase two houses now and he was great to work with both times. Very knowledgeable, patient, and helpful through the entire process. Excellent customer service! We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor.”
“Thrilled we just stumbled across Amanda as our real estate agent. She was such an incredible asset while my partner and I bought our first home. She was easy to get along with, patient, genuine, had great feedback and once she saw what made us light up she was an even better judge of character with each home we walked through. And we walked through a lot of homes! She helped us not settle for a home that was okay or good enough. To find what brought us joy and made us feel safe and comfortable. Amanda was always available to us responding to texts quickly, getting the information we needed, and happy to jump on a quick call if we needed clarification. There is a lot to learn when home buying and she made this process so much more manageable. We never felt pressured to just buy a house. She reminded us that you can update and remodel a home, but you can't move the whole house. You could tell she wanted us to love what we bought. We hope to have found our forever home and not have to buy again, but if we did start searching again we would work with Amanda again in a heartbeat! Thank you for all your support during this hectic and sometimes stressful process!”
“Our Realtor-Neighbor…or Neighbor-Realtor… There are realtors. Then there is A Realtor. And in our case, a Realtor-Neighbor. Or a NEIGHBOR-Realtor. After 19 years in Apple Valley, we bid farewell to the home we loved end of June – with the help of Misty May & Hayden Farris, of Coldwell Banker Realty. Our review will not do Misty & Team justice in all that they have done for us in decluttering, coordinating repairs, donating unwanted items, negotiating the best possible price, and a myriad of other to-do’s in prepping our property for sale. As our neighbors, Misty and Family were wonderful, being our trusted go-to for anything pertaining to the house as we travelled plenty in the few years leading up to putting the house up for sale. As our Realtor, Misty and Team were most resourceful in providing guidance, patience, and grace as we took time to get the house ready for staging and listing – her expertise shows when we saw the post-staging photoshoot, exclaiming to ourselves, “We would buy this house!” Their expertise and ease of working with in-person, remotely online, via calls for discussions and decisions, all assuringly helped us sleep well at night through the 6-month journey to get our house SOLD! For that we are grateful and certainly will recommend Misty, Hayden & their team of make-things-happen crew to any home buyers or sellers! THANK YOU, Misty & Team!”
“Excellent service from beginning to end. Was absolutely focused on the right investment for our family vs pushing a sale. Will use for all real estate needs moving forward.”
