My Journey in Real Estate
 
I started my career in 1992 at SunTrust Bank in the mortgage department. Over the next 24 years, I worked my way through various roles—from receptionist to mortgage loan processor, construction manager, and ultimately a mortgage loan officer. My experience in financing, new construction, and customer service has given me a unique, well-rounded perspective on the buying and selling process.
 
Falling in Love with Sanibel
 
My connection to Sanibel started in the early '90s when my husband, Mark, introduced me to the island. We fell in love with its charm, and in 2012, we purchased our first home here. We split our time between here and Chattanooga until 2016, when we made the move to Sanibel full-time. That’s when I began my real estate career with Pfeifer Realty Group. Now, I live in Shell Harbor, enjoying boating, biking, beach walks with our dog Coco, and the island’s breathtaking natural beauty.
A Personal Approach to Real Estate
 
For me, real estate is about relationships. I’ve had the privilege of helping countless clients, many of whom have become lifelong friends and neighbors. I believe in a hands-on, personal approach, offering you my years of experience and knowledge of the local market to guide you through the process. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or an experienced investor, I’ll be with you every step of the way, offering my expertise and support.
Community Involvement and Service
 
I’m proud to serve my community here on the islands. As a board member of the Sanibel Captiva Association of Realtors and a participant in several local committees, I’ve helped organize fundraising events, beach cleanups, and water quality awareness efforts. In 2020, I was honored to receive the “Community Service Award” from the Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors for my contributions.

Kelly was our agent when we bought and sold our home on Sanibel. She was a great help with learning the island and connecting with other owners and businesses on coming to the island. She was went over and above usual agent duties when we decided to sell. Kelly is personable, honest and has a great sense of humor. She is the consummate professional and we have enjoyed working with her.

Kelly did a terrific job listing and selling our condo! She went above and beyond interacting with our Association and worked directly to keep things moving with contractors and Board Members on our behalf. When you work with the “Condo Queen” you can be confident she is working for you. Thanks Kelly!

Kelly provided outstanding 5-star service from start to finish! We relocated from Broward County to Sanibel, and her professionalism, local expertise, and attention to detail made finding the perfect home stress-free. Kelly was patient, never rushed us, and always responsive. She took time to understand our priorities and budget, then showed homes that truly fit our needs. Her strong relationships with local realtors and vendors made scheduling showings, inspections, and repairs seamless. Since we were out of the area, Kelly went above and beyond by personally handling inspections and repairs on our behalf. We highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a home—she’s exceptional!
