Lisa Handley – Making Real Estate Refreshingly Real

Lisa Handley isn’t your average real estate agent—she’s your go-to problem solver, staging pro, renovation whisperer, and local market matchmaker all rolled into one. As the leader of the Handley Advantage Team at RE/MAX Advantage Plus, Lisa does more than help clients buy or sell homes—she helps them thrive through every step of the journey.

With a sharp eye for design, decades of experience, and the unique benefit of working alongside her husband Chris (a licensed general contractor), Lisa brings an entire real estate-meets-construction dream team to the table. Need a dumpster? Got it. Moving trailer? You bet. Help with renovations or staging? Consider it handled.

Lisa’s work hasn’t gone unnoticed. She’s a proud recipient of the RE/MAX International Hall of Fame and Lifetime Achievement awards, a RE/MAX Advantage Plus Community Award winner, and was named one of RIS Media’s “Inspirational” agents—an honor she holds close to her heart because it came from her clients’ nominations. Ranked in the top 1% of real estate professionals nationwide, Lisa leads with both excellence and empathy.

Whether she's helping first-time buyers, seasoned sellers, or clients right-size their lifestyle, Lisa's known for her warm, down-to-earth approach, unmatched hustle, and the occasional Diet Sunkist in hand. She’s here to make the process easier, smarter, and maybe even a little fun—yes, real estate can be fun.

When she's not negotiating deals or managing the latest listing, you’ll find Lisa giving back through The Wildflowers Project, attending a Broadway show, or cheering on Minnesota Sports teams from the sidelines or at home with her dogs by her side.

If you want results with heart, hustle, and a whole lot of know-how, Lisa Handley and the Handley Advantage Team are ready to roll up their sleeves.
