Growing up in a small town, your word and reputation are everything," says Ryan Platzke. For him, property has always been his honest passion. After graduating first in his class at Ferris State University with a degree in Real Estate Sales and Marketing, Ryan dove headfirst into the industry and took on a role at Coldwell Banker Burnet's Eden Prairie office in 2002. Nearly 20 years later, the rest is history. As owner of the #1 Coldwell BankerA(R) team in Minnesota, Ryan has earned a host of accolades over the years and is currently ranked in the top 1% in the area's total marketplace with over $1 billion in sales volume. Ryan's team has also been honored with the International Society of Excellence designation, representing the top 1% of all Coldwell Banker teams nationwide. What else sets Ryan apart from the average agent? His tech-savvy approach to real estate brings measurable results for his clients, an absolute must in today's booming market. Ryan's focus on local expertise and client-first service means his style is comprehensive, results-driven, and relatable. When partnering with buyers and sellers, he never loses sight of the people at the heart of every transaction. "I've built my business on the Golden Rule, treating others as I'd want to be treated," he says. "I do what's best for my clients, streamlining the process to ensure a stress-free buying or selling experience. I'm committed to our team remaining at the pinnacle of the industry. We go the extra mile, do the right thing, and we always deliver on our promises." Beyond his personalized approach, Ryan also offers over two decades of first-hand real estate experience.

As old-fashioned as it may sound, I still think of myself as a 'smile and handshake' guy. My word really is my bond, and I have built my reputation on that."
