Meet Michelle Kalina, Luxury Real Estate Marketing Expert, Scottsdale, AZ and Rochester, MN

Luxury Homes. Dual Markets. Trusted Expertise.

For most of my career, luxury wasn't a house. It was a diamond. I spent over thirty years in the diamond and jewelry business, selling rare and important pieces to celebrities, collectors, and VIPs. I wrote the ads, produced the events, worked the trade shows, and built the campaigns that moved big-ticket pieces to the most discerning buyers in the world. That is where I learned that marketing is not a sign in the yard and a hope. It is craft.

I bring that exact craft to real estate. Every home I represent gets a campaign built for it: property-specific websites, custom video produced with advanced technology, four-color curated brochures, and curated events that bring the right buyers through the door. If a home doesn't sell, it is never for a lack of marketing.

Today I serve two luxury markets, North Scottsdale's golf communities with Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty and Southeast Minnesota with Lakes Sotheby's International Realty, with a specialty in Mayo Clinic physician relocations. I hold the CLHMS, GRI, and Certified Relocation Specialist designations and rank in the top one and a half percent nationally on RealTrends Verified.

Exemplary service. Exceptional marketing. Extraordinary results. That's not a tagline. It's how I've worked my entire career.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Michelle was absolutely superb during my home search as I was planning my move from the East Coast to Rochester, Minnesota. Since I was not able to physically travel into town until around the closing date, she was able to skillfully handle the search virtually and negotiate with the seller effectively as well as arrange for house inspection without any disruption of my work schedule or any other difficu...
