About the RKiHomes Team

When Hope needed to sell her home, one of her biggest concerns was keeping it neat and presentable to make it more appealing to buyers so she could get top dollar.  With two small, active children, she knew that this was no small task.

That’s where Brenda Richterkessing stepped in.  Brenda and the RKiHomes Team are so passionate about “staging” homes—putting them in the best possible light—that one of their included services is bringing in skilled interior designers to spruce up, clean out, upgrade, and rearrange to make the home inviting and attractive to potential buyers.  Brenda brought in Accredited Staging Professionals (ASP) who understood the delicate balance between showing the best the house had to offer with Hope and her family’s need to continue living, playing, and working in their home until a buyer was found.

Hope’s house not only sold in three days to the first family that toured it, it also brought the highest dollar any home in their neighborhood ever had.  

In the meantime, Brenda had searched for and found a house in a growing community for Hope and her family to call their new home. Hope will tell you the transition was smooth and worry-free, that Brenda invested so much time into the details, that she didn’t have to, and that the RKiHomes Team made what could have been a stressful time an enjoyable one.

More Power to You

Well into her career in the corporate world, Brenda Richterkessing began to have this recurring feeling that she wanted to make more of a difference in people’s lives.  She wasn’t fully satisfied in the corporate world even though she was completely dedicated to it and had dozens of awards and accolades to her credit.  She found herself thinking more and more about how she could use her extensive business experience to help others in a more tangible way.  It was around this same time that her sister’s job relocated from Tennessee to Florida.  Brenda flew down to help her sister with the real estate process and fell in love with it all–searching for the perfect house in the perfect community, the contract negotiations, the financing, the details, the closing—everything!  The day her sister moved into her lovely new home, Brenda knew that helping others through these major decisions and life transitions was what she was meant to do.

Some years later, Brenda has garnered a number of impressive real estate records.  Her business experience and warm, personal approach helped her to become one of the area’s top agents in her first year in the business.  But, she is not driven by the industry’s idea of success; she is motivated by one driving force—helping position her clients for their major life events and making it easier for them to make the transition.  Whether it’s a new marriage, a new baby, a new job, a divorce, downsizing, or upsizing, she understands that your decision to buy or sell a home is almost always due to a significant life event.
