Edina Realty continues to hold on to its position as the number one seller of homes in its markets for the 11th consecutive year. “I’m certain that our REALTORS® are among the most knowledgeable and hardworking people in this business right now,” Barb Jandric said. “And it’s our intention to continue giving them the tools and information they need to stay on top.”
