Personal Profile
I've worked for Century 21 since 1996, specializing in selling farm and residential real estate in west-central Illinois. I am a licensed Broker/Realtor and a Veteran Certified Agent (VCA) with the Veteran Real Estate Benefit Network. I work diligently to provide clients with comprehensive customer service throughout the buying/selling process. When you don't want to worry about the transaction process, call me for all of your buying and selling needs.
In addition to working in real estate, I started a farm business in 2000, Heartland "Criations" Alpacas LLC. Aside from buying, selling and showing Suri Alpacas, I sell alpaca products in a variety of locations, participate in agri-tourism, offer alpaca agistment and breeding services, each felting classes and offer consulting services. Concurrently, I serve as the Executive Director Kewanee Economic Development Corporation, a private, non-profit corporation, that serves as the catalyst for business attraction, retention, expansion, and succession in Kewanee, Illinois. As a leadership organization, KEDC works to enhance community assets by stimulating capital investment, promoting business diversification, and fostering community improvement in order to grow and expand Kewanee's prosperity and the quality of life of its residents.
Prior to working in economic development, I spent 18 years working in education, both as a high school English teacher and as a high school principal. It's the melding of my experience, that best helps me to assist real estate clients with their farm and residential buying and selling needs in west-central Illinois.

Buyer reviewKathy helped in showing us several houses and explained pros and cons of each house. She was very communicative and helped me understand the process of making an offer and closing as a first time homebuyer. She was very quick to reply to any questions or concerns and we will definitely recommend her to family and friends.

Buyer reviewKathy is literally an angel. This was my first time buying a home so I was incredibly nervous. She made the process super easy and was extremely helpful when it came to telling me what I needed to hear. She would tell me if a house is not worth the money or if ut was in bad shape. She was extremely honest about her opinions about the houses but in the best way. I needed that help as someone who had never bought a home. She is respectful, responsive, supportive, and above all patient. I am so thankful for Kathy and would chose her as a realtor a million times over if I could. I can't say enough great things about her. I'm just so thankful for everything she did for me.

Buyer reviewThis is the third time working with Kathy... every single time has been such a great experience. She's so knowledgeable and organized. She really does her research, she really cares, and she doesn't just focus on the property, she assists with everything from helping with the bank to helping find appliances. She really is top notch! Never want to work with anyone else again!
