Broker and Founder, HomeFront Realty
Meet Cindy Jamison
Cindy has spent about 28 years in real estate, and she has seen the business from nearly every side: investor, landlord, broker, and property manager.
Her start came in 1998, when she bought her first rental property in St. Paul. From there she went on to buy, remodel, and flip homes. In 2001 she moved to Georgia and opened her own brokerage, where she worked through investor purchases, foreclosures, short sales, VA transactions, and 1031 exchanges, and built a large property management company along the way.
Cindy returned to Minnesota in 2013 to be near family, became licensed here, and opened HomeFront Realty in Waconia in the spring of 2020.
Today she focuses on educating buyers and sellers of starter homes and guiding clients who are buying and selling at the same time. With more than 28 years of professional and personal investing experience, she often spots issues in a transaction that others miss.
Before real estate, Cindy spent ten years in the restaurant industry, where she learned business operations, marketing, and customer service. She has two sons, Tyler and Brady, and enjoys travel, scuba diving, fishing, hiking, and camping.
How Cindy Can Help
- First time buyers and starter homes
- Buying and selling at the same time
- Investment properties and 1031 exchanges
- Foreclosures and short sales

REALTOR, HomeFront Realty
Meet Lindsey Hagen
For Lindsey Hagen, real estate brings together what she enjoys most: connecting with people, solving problems, and helping others navigate important life decisions. As a West and Southwest Metro Realtor with HomeFront Realty, she brings energy, honesty, and genuine care to every client relationship, along with a commitment to helping people make confident, informed decisions about one of life’s biggest moves.
Raised in Chaska and a Carver County resident ever since, Lindsey has watched the area grow and change while staying connected to the people, neighborhoods, schools, and local businesses that make it home. Her lifelong connection to the area offers a perspective that goes beyond market data, helping clients understand the nuances of different communities and find the right fit for their needs and lifestyle.
Lindsey takes a straightforward, client-first approach to real estate. She believes buying or selling a home should feel exciting—not overwhelming—and that clients deserve someone who listens, communicates clearly, tells them the truth (even when it’s not what they hoped to hear), and stays ahead of the details. Whether helping a first-time buyer put down roots, guiding a growing family into their next home, or helping sellers make a strategic move, she works to make the process informed, manageable, and personal.
Outside of real estate, Lindsey is a wife and mom of two active kids, so much of her time is spent cheering from a hockey rink or sidelines, coordinating schedules, and embracing the beautiful chaos of family life. She’s also passionate about giving back, volunteering with organizations including the Waconia Hockey Association, Chaska Rotary, and Waconia DandyLions.
For Lindsey, being part of real estate means being part of the communities she serves. She considers it a privilege to help clients navigate their next chapter with a trusted advocate by their side.
