Michael Stanton is devoted to providing his clients with an exceptional real estate experience defined by professionalism, trust, and personalized care. His mission extends beyond transactions—he strives to ensure every client feels respected, understood, and expertly guided from start to finish. With a signature blend of white-glove service, data-driven insight, and strategic advocacy, Michael delivers results that exceed expectations at every price point.

Leveraging analytical precision, critical thinking, and the power of advanced technology, Michael integrates AI-driven marketing tools, targeted social media strategy, and extensive video storytelling to position each property at its highest potential. His innovative approach pairs data intelligence with the human touch, creating marketing campaigns that are both globally visible and emotionally resonant. By combining modern platforms with timeless dedication, Michael ensures that every client’s home receives the exposure and presentation it deserves.

Before real estate, Michael built a distinguished career in cardiac and neurosurgical device sales. A profound mentorship from a renowned pediatric neurosurgeon early in his career reshaped his approach—from simply selling to genuinely serving. That defining lesson continues to inspire his client-first philosophy today.

Now proudly aligned with Lakes Sotheby’s International Realty, a brand celebrated for its global reach, refined marketing, and legacy of excellence, Michael brings a wealth of experience and an unwavering work ethic to every relationship. He holds designations as a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS) through the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), Graduate REALTOR® Institute (GRI), and Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR).

A proud alumnus of Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska, Michael credits his Jesuit education for instilling the values of service, integrity, and lifelong learning.

A lifelong Minnesotan, Michael was raised in West St. Paul and has called Woodbury home since 1998, where he and his wife enjoy life with their two grown children and beloved Golden Retrievers. His hallmark quality—enthusiasm—fuels every client interaction, transforming each experience into one that is as rewarding as it is successful.

Mike is an awesome realtor who goes above and beyond to satisfy his customers' needs. My husband and I had the pleasure to work with him multiple times and he never disappoints. We always recommend him to our friends and family.

We used Michael Stanton to purchase our home and we could not be happier with her services. The process can be difficult and hard to navigate, but Michael knew his way around and made it work smoothly. I refer all my friends and family to him. Whether you are looking to sell or buy he is your Realtor!

We've worked with Michael on several deals now and are always satisfied with his local knowledge, experience, and most of all professionalism.

Buyer

Mike Stanton helped us buy our Hudson home and sell our Woodbury home (during a Pandemic). He was realistic and listened to us in what we wanted, we were not in a hurry and he truly did a thorough job for us in our real estate experience. He encouraged us to look at many different homes to ensure we knew what we didn't want and also the things we absolutely wanted!...
