We are a team of four full-time Realtors, experienced in all types of real estate. As part of the top-producing team in our area for many years, our team continues to receive the Coldwell Banker's International Presidents Circle Team award. We attribute that to working hard 7 days a week and to our extensive marketing used to promote our team and listed properties.

We enjoy the challenge of trying new types of advertising methods and techniques to get more exposure for our listings and attracting more buyers. When it comes to selling, we design a unique marketing plan for your property. The internet and social media are a big part of our marketing plan; however, we still do many forms of print advertising as we find it beneficial. Also beneficial is the massive amount of marketing/advertising the Coldwell Banker franchise does from local and state to national and global.

All of us were raised in this wonderful area and have a real love for Grand Rapids and the surrounding towns that make up our magnificent north woods in Itasca County. Our feeling is that working together as a team is very valuable to our buyers and sellers:

T – Together

E – Everyone

A – Accomplishes

M – More

Cathy Beddoe Carlson has been a Realtor since 1990 and has worked for Coldwell Banker Northwoods Realty since 1993. Cathy has served as a Director and President in the past for the Itasca County Board of Realtors. She enjoys spending any free time camping & fishing at any of the local lakes.

Lynn Ranger career in Real Estate began in 2002 after her and her husband, Gary, closed their video rental store. Her dad was a realtor for 38 years and offered her the encouragement to make real estate her new profession. She decided to take every aspect she learned managing a business, serving the public, from retail to customer service and applying that to Real Estate. Working with her dad for seven years before he retired, she eventually joined Coldwell Banker Northwoods Realty and the “Up North Team” in 2010 because she loved the concept of working with a team. Because of Lynn’s deep commitment to the industry, she has served as a past Director for the Itasca County Board of Realtors and has earned her GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute) designation. Less than 15 percent of realtors have achieved this designation. Being a Realtor has become a passion and she loves helping people find their dream home, whether it’s a first time home buyer, a lake cabin, or a forever home, she won’t stop till she finds the perfect match. She is also committed to assisting sellers to achieve that next chapter in their life and helping to pave the way and ease the stress. She feels that Real Estate is the art of bringing Buyers and Sellers together and guiding them from the offer to the negotiations and inspections all the way to the closing table. Lynn is a lover of music and performing arts, and spends her free time taking in shows at the The Reif Performing Arts Center or browsing the unique shops of Grand Rapids but feels most comfortable at home with a good book or trying new recipes. Family is most important to Lynn. She and her husband have two grown children, and three grandchildren and loves spending time with them. She is enthusiastic, knowledgeable, experienced, loves meeting new people and helping them achieve their real estate goals. Give Lynn a call if you’re buying, selling or just want to chat about the process, she is always there to help. 218-259-0485
