Helping Twin Cities Clients Navigate Real Estate With Precision, Local Insight, and Proven Luxury Expertise

Helping Twin Cities Clients Navigate Real Estate With Precision, Local Insight, and Proven Luxury Expertise

Trusted guidance for high-end buyers, sellers, and new-construction clients across the northern suburbs and their premier lake communities.

Real estate in the Twin Cities and the northern suburbs has its own identity—its own lakes, its own neighborhoods, its own pace, and its own level of sophistication. High-end buyers and sellers don’t just want information; they want clarity. They want strategy. And they want someone who understands the lifestyle, the lake systems, the communities, and the market movements that shape long-term value.

At Ornell Group, that’s exactly what we provide.

We help Twin Cities clients navigate real estate with precision, local insight, and a commitment to exceptional results. As part of Real Broker’s Real Luxury Division, a designation earned through luxury sales performance, and as a GUILD-certified member of the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, we serve higher-end clients with the expertise and intention they deserve.

With more than $200 million in closed sales and over 200 successful transactions, including a strong track record of recent waterfront deals on northern-suburbs lakes, we bring real, measurable experience to every move.

This isn’t theory.
This isn’t marketing fluff.
This is proven performance.

And that’s what your next chapter deserves.


Local Knowledge That Protects Your Equity

We live on the lake.
We work the northern suburbs daily.
And we understand the nuances that genuinely impact value:

  • shoreline quality

  • water depth and clarity

  • setbacks and zoning

  • septic and well requirements

  • neighborhood growth patterns

  • school district influence

  • community-specific trends

Our job is to give you honest, actionable guidance rooted in experience—not guesswork.

High-end clients expect accuracy.
We deliver that through data, insight, and lived understanding of these communities.


Strategic Guidance for Buyers, Sellers, and Builders

Whether you're discovering your next home, preparing to sell, or designing a custom build, we guide you with clarity at every step.

For Buyers

We evaluate lifestyle, lake performance, long-term value, and community fit. Luxury buying is more than finding a house—it’s finding the right home in the right setting.

For Sellers

We craft a tailored strategy built around:

  • luxury-caliber marketing

  • strategic pricing

  • targeted digital advertising

  • professional photography + video

  • high-intent buyer targeting

  • quiet negotiation strength

Your home becomes a product with a plan—not a listing thrown to the market.

For New-Construction Clients

We help with:

  • lot selection

  • builder selection

  • design + layout choices

  • protecting future resale value

  • timeline management

  • strategic oversight

A custom build is a major investment—we help you make it confidently.


A Commitment to Clarity, Care, and High Standards

High-end real estate isn’t about pressure or hype.
It’s about service, stewardship, and smart strategy.

When clients trust us with their home—one of their largest assets—we show up with:

  • honesty

  • local expertise

  • thoughtful planning

  • proactive communication

  • clear expectations

  • full transparency

It’s the way we believe this business should be done.


We Row Together

This isn’t a one-person operation.
Ornell Group is a team built on unity, collaboration, and shared standards.

We operate with one belief:

We row together.

That means we support each other, push in the same direction, and always put our clients first. When you hire Ornell Group, you gain the strength, experience, and strategy of an entire team—not just a single agent.
