BROKER/OWNER
I’m Jeff Carlson, Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Experience and RE/MAX Lakes Realty, and Team Leader of the Carlson Group at RE/MAX Experience. Real estate is more than a career for me, it’s my passion and my platform for building community across Sioux City, Dakota Dunes, LeMars, Okoboji, and all of Siouxland. Every client I work with becomes part of that community, and I take pride in delivering an experience that’s energetic, fun, and results-driven.
Over the years, I’ve humbly been honored with some incredible recognition in the industry, including being named a Top 100 RE/MAX Agent in the U.S. (#66 in 2022), the #2 agent in the Iowa/Nebraska Region in 2022, a Platinum Club Award winner (2022–2024), 2025 RealTrends top real estate teams in Iowa and Sioux City, named to REMAX Hall of Fame (2025), and part of the RE/MAX President’s Circle for leading one of the fastest-growing brokerages in the nation. While those accolades mean a lot and are a direct reflection of the amazing clients we work with daily, what truly drives me is helping people achieve their dreams Whether it’s buying a home, selling an investment, or finding that perfect lakeshore getaway in Okoboji.
Beyond real estate, I’m deeply invested in the Siouxland community. I’m a co-owner of the City Centre in downtown Sioux City, I stay active at Sunnybrook Community Church, and I love giving back through coaching youth basketball and supporting local causes. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me cheering on a game, firing up the grill with friends, or enjoying a day of boating in Okoboji. Real estate is what I do but people, family, faith, and community are why I do it.

Jeff’s obsession with creating an elite customer experience is evident!
I’ve worked with Jeff and his crew several times throughout the years and have never met a more caring and trustworthy team. They truly go above and beyond for their clients!
Jeff was extremely patient through our year-long search for a property. He understood our vision and kept our best interests in mind.
Jeff and Rachel helped us find a home to launch our small business. They are very responsive, knowledgeable, and as first time business owners incredibly patient and willing to explain processes in a way that was easy to understand. In addition to all of this, the they passionate about our community and genuinely want to see us succeed. Highly recommend!!
Jeff and his team are amazing! They work so hard for their customers! Love working with them!
Jeff and Rachel are the most consummate professionals. We worked with them on a commercial property acquisition and I would recommend them every time. Absolute experts and fun to work with.
"I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jeff Carlson during my home purchase this year, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Jeff was attentive, knowledgeable, and always had our best interests at heart. Jeff made the entire process smooth and stress-free, guiding us through every step with patience and expertise. I found my dream home and couldn't be more grateful, thanks to RE/MAX Experience. I Highly recommend anyone in this group to anyone in need of a fantastic realtor!" - Taylor Deckert, KTIV News
We began looking for our first home shortly after we found out we were having a baby, and Jeff, Rachel, and Cassie all knocked it out of the park! Carlson RE/MAX has a lineup of incredibly talented individuals that do their homework, empower buyers, and know how to find the right home.
