About Eli Smith

Originally from Green Bay, Wisconsin, Eli now resides in Maple Grove, Minnesota, where he serves families throughout the Northwest Twin Cities with dedication, integrity, and heart.
Before beginning his real estate career, Eli spent several years as a Store Manager for various retailers, where he honed his leadership, communication, and customer service skills. That experience taught him how to work with people from all walks of life and reinforced his belief that true success comes from service, consistency, and genuine care.
Eli’s inspiration for pursuing real estate stemmed from a desire to help others achieve something many only dream of—owning their own home. He’s passionate about serving clients who may not fully understand the process, guiding them step by step with honesty, patience, and transparency. Known for his calm, steady approach, Eli puts 100% effort into representing every client, ensuring their needs always come first.
He’s recognized for his creative, forward-thinking perspective—helping clients see potential that others might miss. Whether it’s preparing a home for the market, structuring a winning offer, or navigating a complex transaction, Eli combines strategy with compassion to deliver exceptional results. Clients remember him as humble, available, and fully present throughout the entire process.
Outside of real estate, Eli is a devoted husband and father of two. He’s passionate about football, enjoys designing clothing, and serves on the worship team at his church. His life is grounded in faith, family, and a continual drive to grow—both personally and professionally.
At his core, Eli believes real estate is about more than houses; it’s about people, purpose, and building a life you love.

I have never been more satisfied with how much pride they take into keeping relationships and finding anything thier clients need/ want in a home. Its not about money for them, its about succeeding as individuals and a growing thier company. We would never even consider using anyone else for real estate.”
