As a life-long resident of the Twin Cities, Katey can speak to the nuances of all of our great communities. While real estate is her chosen career, it is also her hobby. Katey owns multiple single-family and commercial investment properties in the Minneapolis area and wonders which state or country might be next. While not perusing MLS…she can be found collecting seashells and snorkeling while on vacation, watching baseball games anywhere, and kayaking on Minnesota’s many lakes with her husband, kids, and dogs. She is a long-time supporter of The Ronald McDonald House, a charity near and dear to her heart. She was born and raised in Minneapolis and is proud to still call the Twin Cities home.
