Katie O’Keefe Awarded Milwaukee Magazine's FIVE STAR "Best in Client Satisfaction" for 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015!

Hello! I'm Katie O'Keefe, welcome to Dream Realty! As the owner and broker, I have been making home buyers

and sellers dreams come true for the past 11 years.

Helping buyers through what could be a scary and daunting process while making it fun and less overwhelming is my forte.

Plus, being a small company without the large company overhead allows me to offer incredible

commission rates!

My enthusiasm for people and professional drive make real estate a perfect fit for me. Seeing first time buyers get

excited about obtaining the ‘American Dream’ or watching sellers decide they are ready for the next phase is an

emotional and personal connection I get to make. Turning clients into life long friends is the bonus.

Whether it's buying a new home, selling an old one or delving into an investment property, my goal is to

make your real estate dreams come true!

TIPS FOR BETTER SHOWINGS

Before you put your home on the market, there are some things you can do to differentiate your house among the competitors.

Plan Ahead • Walk through each room and criticize the home from a buyer's perspective. • Ask a few local real estate professionals for their advice. • Consider getting a professional home inspection to see if repairs are needed. • Hire a contractor to handle any major projects. • Consider getting an appraisal to find out your current market value. • Hold a yard sale. Sell, donate or trash anything you don't need.

Clean, Declutter and Depersonalize • Thoroughly clean the entire home. • Scrub tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. • Clean hardwood floors. • Steam clean carpets and drapes. Consider replacing carpet if stains are prominent. • Repair cracks and holes in the walls. • Paint interior walls with neutral colors, like beige, cream or light pastels. Pale blues and greens are good for bathrooms. • Remove excess and oversized furniture. • Rearrange furniture to maximize space. • Organize room closets and store out-of-season clothes. • Remove all small appliances, toys, magazines and pet items. • Remove family photos, personal collections and medications. •Secure valuable items, including cash and jewelry.

Pay Attention to Kitchens & Bathrooms • Mop and wax/polish the floors. • Clear the countertops. • Replace outdated hardware. • Clean appliances and fixtures. • Clean and organize the pantry, cabinets, closets and drawers. • Replace old caulking around sinks and bathtubs. • Remove stains from sinks, toilets and bathtubs. • Keep all toilet seat lids closed. • Hang fresh towels.

Maximize Curb Appeal • Paint the home's exterior, including trim, doors and shutters. • Check front door, doorbell, address number and welcome mat. • Power wash the siding and windows. • Inspect the roof and make repairs as needed. • Repair cracks in the driveway and sidewalks. • Sweep the entryway and walkways. • Mow, water and fertilize the lawn. • Trim shrubs and trees and rake the leaves. • Plant colorful flowers and shrubs. • Store any toys or equipment lying on the yard. • Clean up pet droppings. • Clean the gutters and downspouts. • Remove items from the garage and store them off site.

Show Off Your Home's Best Features • Remove rugs to show off hardwood floors. • Pull back drapes to showcase nice views. • Stage the front porch or deck with furniture and potted plants. • Make sure fireplaces are in working condition. • Clean the backyard and pool area.

Appeal to the Senses • Bake cookies or burn scented candles. • Install higher wattage incandescent light bulbs to brighten rooms. • Turn on all the lights. • Open windows to let in fresh air. • Open curtains or blinds to let in natural light and show off views. • Turn off TVs. • Relocate pets on the day of the open house. • Refrain from smoking in the home.

PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO

Presenting and showcasing your property is critical and photographs are the powerful bait.Good ones can lure buyers; poor ones can do the opposite.

At Dream Realty, we understand this and our agents’ focus is on each property's "pix appeal," or attractiveness in photos posted in online listings.

We look forward to working with each client and presenting their property from the best angle.

Our services include both still photography and videography.
