Transitioning homes, transitioning lives.

Shannon Lindstrom is a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE®) and Realtor® with RE/MAX Results who specializes in the sale of residential real property in Minnesota family law matters. With more than 22 years of residential real estate experience across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the greater Twin Cities, Ms. Lindstrom serves as a trained neutral — not an advocate for either spouse — bringing a disciplined, process-driven approach to what is often the most consequential asset in a divorce. She earned her CDRE® designation through the Ilumni Institute in 2023 and completed Collaborative Experience Training through the Collaborative Law Institute of Minnesota in April 2026, equipping her to work fluently across litigated, mediated, and collaborative matters — from low-conflict, mutually cooperative sales to high-conflict, court-ordered dispositions — and to integrate seamlessly with attorneys, financial neutrals, mental health professionals, and the broader divorce team.

Her work is distinguished by three strengths family law professionals consistently rely on. First, clear, defensible documentation that holds up throughout negotiation, mediation, and trial — drafted so counsel can rely on it without rework. Second, calibrated pricing and listing strategy grounded in current Twin Cities market data, structured to withstand scrutiny from opposing counsel and produce realistic, supportable outcomes for both parties. Third, a calm, structured communication protocol that reduces friction between divorcing spouses, manages occupancy and showing logistics, and keeps the transaction moving on the court's timeline rather than the conflict's timeline. Whether the file involves court-ordered sales, delayed cooperation, valuation disagreements, contested listing decisions, or the emotionally sensitive dynamics that accompany family law transactions, Ms. Lindstrom approaches every matter with neutrality, precision, and steady professionalism.

Ms. Lindstrom serves divorcing homeowners and family law professionals throughout Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the surrounding Minnesota communities. She has been recognized by RE/MAX Results with multiple performance honors, including the Delta Award (2022, 2024), Executive Club (2018, 2021), and 100% Club distinctions (2018, 2022, 2024, 2025); by the Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors® with its Exceptional Service Award; and ranks as a top 1% Veterans United Network Agent. With more than two decades of residential transactions behind her, specialized training in both divorce real estate and collaborative methodology, and a reputation for composure under pressure, Ms. Lindstrom is uniquely positioned to serve as the trusted real estate resource attorneys turn to in Minnesota family law matters involving residential property.
