Becky Quinby
Broker & Founder
For more than 15 years, Becky has guided buyers and sellers through the Twin Cities' most storied neighborhoods. Her particular expertise is historic homes and urban living: the craftsmanship, character, and city-rooted lifestyle that make these properties singular, and the nuances of buying, preparing, and marketing them well.
Her perspective is hands-on. Becky has bought, renovated, and lived in homes spanning nearly a century of Minneapolis architecture, from a 1938 two-story in Kingfield to a 1916 Craftsman in East Harriet to the 1928 Cape Cod in Edina she is restoring today. She also owns and restores a portfolio of historic investment properties, including a Shenandoah Terrace fourplex and a Nokomis duplex. She knows which details carry a home's value and which improvements earn their return at sale.
Becky is also the founder of Onward, a platform that amplifies businesses who give back through their work and partners with nonprofits to generate more fundraising for the causes they serve. It's the same conviction behind Quinby Partners' giving model, extended to professionals across industries.
She is the host of Doing Better, a new podcast featuring conversations with nonprofit leaders, purpose-driven professionals, and community partners about building work that does well and does good.
Becky lives in Edina with her wife, Gracie, and their four children, Millie, Alma, Fitz, and Arthur. Away from work, you'll find her at every kids' activity imaginable, on the golf course, or pursuing her newest passion, tennis.

What People Are Saying
“Always incredibly quick to respond and happy to talk over any part of the the house buying process with us. They picked up on our house preferences before we would even notice we had those preferences. I wouldn't want to be in the housing market with anyone else!”
— Siri Smith
“The team was a great help as a first-time homebuyer. Their knowledge of local conditions, consideration of my preferences, and insight into approaching a very difficult negotiation process was outstanding. They were always very responsive to any questions I had, and offered me advice on every aspect of the home buying process. I never felt pressured, and could not be happier with the way everything worked out..”
— Andy Morris
“They are a powerhouse team. They made the process seamless, stress-free, and fun. Through their expertise, we got well-over asking on the house we sold and below asking on the house we bought. Throughout the entire process they were caring, considerate, and patient (even after we looked at nearly 40 homes-- yikes). We never felt rushed in and always had our questions answered. We would not hesitate to use them again and would recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home in the Twin Cities. You guys are awesome!”
