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 absolutely the best! We live in Ohio and were buying a retirement condo. Kelly was knowledgeable about the area, the requirements, the process and always had our best interest at heart. She made the process easy and was there when we needed her, either by phone, text or email and no matter the time of the day. Her experience on Sanibel Island is invaluable.

Kelly was instrumental in helping us find property in the area we were looking for in Sanibel. She is incredibly knowledgeable and was always happy to show us a new property or drive around neighborhoods. Kelly was actually on vacation when she wrote up a proposal for us and negotiated on our behalf. We were so lucky to have had her as our realtor and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for their forever home!!!

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.
