Kelly got her start in RE investing when her and her husband purchased their first home, turned it into an owner-occupied duplex and were able to use that foundation to further expand their real estate portfolio to include 21 units.  Kelly’s personal experience in expanding her own portfolio has provided her with first-hand experience and knowledge in funding and acquiring deals allowing her to effectively walk clients through the entire process of researching, analyzing, funding and closing on acquisitions. She’s used hard money, residential and commercial loans, seller notes, construction loans and a mixture of each to creatively make deals happen.

In addition, Kelly and her husband owned a home energy auditing business. Being a BPI certified energy auditor she was able to assess homes and building envelopes then make recommendations to homeowners on how to make improvements that would save energy and make their homes more efficient.

It is Kelly's personal knowledge and experience in many aspects of real estate including but not limited to single family buying and selling, rental properties, new construction, property management, building envelopes and business ownership that make her an ideal person to help you in your real estate endeavors.

Kelly has been featured on HGTV’s House Hunters twice, is a regular guest on the Real Estate Rockstars Podcast, currently serves as a Local Director for the Ithaca Board of Realtors and chair for the Technology and Social Media Committee and regularly volunteers in her community.
