Authentic Bonds
Leaders have the powerful ability to envision the future they want to build for themselves and those around them. At the same time, they also have the gifts needed to hone in and focus on the steps that need to be taken to achieve those goals today.
Kasey Reyes doesn’t take her role in the business lightly. As a real estate professional with Stetson Bentley, she builds authentic bonds with those around her.
“I love building authentic relationships and caring for other people’s dreams,” Kasey says. “With my role in real estate, I’m helping other people achieve their dreams day by day.”
Making Her Mark
Before finding her current, successful role in the industry, Kasey made her mark in other ways. “I worked directly with a builder here that taught me about the ins and outs of the new construction world,” Kasey says. “Originally my husband, Jordan, went to work for a local builder. We had talked about getting into real estate as licensed professionals and what our careers would require to become successful. He spent two years working for that builder, then I started my role in the business working under a different builder for two more years and he went back to work in marketing so that I could take that step without conflict of interest.”
True Family Teamwork
After four years total, Kasey earned her license on January 1, 2021. She was gratified to enjoy a flourishing business within six months. Immediately, she started working in the luxury field. In time, Kasey and Jordan teamed up as THE REALTOR® FAM.
Before they knew it, they were recording $20 million in sales volume together. Along the way, they have enjoyed the ride together — literally. They have a Mercedes Sprinter … a mobile office that gives them space to effectively work in the field as a family. Today, Kasey represents four luxury builders in the Edmond-Oklahoma City area.
Kasey smiles when she talks about having the chance to share the same path in life and business with her family being in the center of her career.
“It’s totally a God thing. This is my purpose, and I’m very thankful on a daily basis that we get to practice real estate together,” Kasey says. “We can raise our child together in a way that I didn’t think otherwise would be possible. I’m very thankful.”
A Wonderful World
Kasey and Jordan treasure time spent with their daughter, Chandler. Away from work, they are big sports fans. They are dedicated supporters of the Rangers, and they like to travel to see family and friends. One of their favorite destinations is New York City.
As Kasey looks back on her real estate career, she remembers the way some doubted her proposed path.
“When I was 25 years old and trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, I told others that I wanted to go into real estate. They said I was crazy if I wanted to practice real estate and have a family. I’m driven daily by that,” Kasey says. “Also, I’m a young female in my early 30s and I run into that objection each day. I’m always up against someone who has been doing this for a long time. However, the relationship wins and I think so far I am doing an OK job at proving it’s competence and confidence that matters most. Markets change with the years, this industry changes equally as fast and technology is becoming of the utmost importance along with relationships.”
Humility and Gratitude
When you speak with Kasey, it’s easy to see her humility and gratitude for her role in the business. Each day, she takes pride in pouring into people and helping them through what can be a challenging process of realizing their real estate goals.
“I’m big on helping others and encouraging others to do what they’ve been told they can’t do,” Kasey says. “The intention for me isn’t to build an empire. It’s to make a difference for a family. I want to impact them in a way that makes them want to tell other people about their experience.”
Congratulations to Kasey Reyes. Day by day, she demonstrates what vision, hard work and follow through can achieve. Along the way, she maintains her focus on building authentic bonds.
