Marcela Egea, Hagen Draper and Catalina Cutshaw — KC Premier Home & Land at Keller Williams Realty Partners Inc. Fourteen-plus years, licensed in Kansas and Missouri, in English and in Spanish.
Maybe a family member passed in the spring and the house still has their coats in the closet.
Maybe you've been renting for six years and just found out there are grant programs you might qualify for.
Maybe you own ground your family has worked for forty years, and you need someone who understands what that means before they put a sign in it.
Whatever brought you here, you don't need a brokerage. You need a person that cares.
Estate work is one of Marcela's favorite parts of this business, next to working with first-time buyers and investors— Estate work is the part of Real Estate she takes most personally.
Here's what it usually looks like; A parent or loved one has passed. The children have their own lives, their own jobs, their own cities. Somebody must deal with the auction or estate sale, the cleanout, the flooring, working with the probate attorney, the repairs nobody got around to. Nobody wants it to be them.
It doesn't have to be.
Marcela has every vendor that house needs already in her network — auction coordinators, estate sale organizers, cleanout crews, flooring, paint as well as other home contractors, landscapers, stagers. She's fluent in probate and has worked alongside estate attorneys many times.
-If you never want to set foot in that house again, you don't have to. -
"She'll treat what's inside the way you'd want it treated, she listens to you. "- a Seller's family member
"A lot of people don't respect people that have passed away — their belongings, their life.
When I'm getting a home ready for listing, I always take a moment to really think about their life: who they were, what they accomplished, what they loved to do, their hobbies. You find all of that as you're preparing the house to sell, in speaking to family, friends and neighbors of the deceased.
I feel like I'm their last voice for their house and like to keep as much off the shoulders of all involved on the Estate side as my respect for them and the family." Marcela Egea
That is not a marketing line. That is why this part of the business exists.
You should know what you qualify for before you fall in love with anything.
Marcela Egea, Catalina Cutshaw and Hagen Draper all specialize in first-time homebuyers, grant and down payment assistance programs, and other financial programs to help assist you. They work closely with several lenders and have already closed multiple grant-program loans. If there's assistance you qualify for, they will work hard in guiding you to the correct place.
Hablamos Español - And if English isn't the language you want to make the biggest financial decision of your life in — Marcela is bilingual, English and Spanish. She began real estate in 2012, coming out of the recession, specifically because Hispanic families in this market had almost no bilingual agent to turn to. Fourteen years later, that's still the heart of the business.
Land is not the same as a house with a yard.
Land has several different uses and can sometimes come along with several “if-and & but’s” attachments. Hagen Draper studies all of this and specializes in the sale of all types of land.
She is actively learning different types of active financial alternatives thru traditional loans, farm loans, USDA and other types of loans for the purchase of Land, whether it be for Agricultural use, Recreational, Livestock, Hunting or building your dream home. Her own daily life experiences give her the knowledge that you are looking for in purchasing the ground you desire. Hagen actively farms alongside her family, in crop farming- harvesting thousands of acres, working cattle all year round, as well as she trains cattle dogs for their own business and for others.
She sells ground as she works and experiences it.
Land and Equine
Before real estate, Marcela Egea was a professional show jumping trainer for several years — she trained show horses her entire life and competed all over the country. She worked hard on the Equine horse farm for several years, helping cultivate the hay, building fence, getting to know the land. It's why listing acreage, an Equine property, or a working farm doesn't intimidate her. She has lived on that ground.
Every listing gets professional photography, walkthrough video, aerial and drone video, and floor plans — plus a separate walkthrough video filmed with us in it and without us, pushed across all social. Brochures go out to every Realtor in the local MLS. Open house (when applicable), paid for social boosts, Marketplace listings, and specialty reach most listings never get: Keller Williams luxury, KW Land, KW equine, KW International, and several other Specialty sites as well as hunting outfitter connections.
"Above and beyond" is literal here. Landscaping help. Moving help. Staging. Setting up the cleaning. Lender introductions, and more.
"We're not afraid to roll up our sleeves and help our clients get a deal to the closing table."
Examples of how we work hard to "keep our clients deals together"
"The deed nobody signed."
The final title commitment revealed that three owners back — roughly twenty years earlier — a wife had never signed the deed. Title would not close. Marcela worked her network across the city until she found where those past sellers had ended up, then met them in person with a notary, got the signatures needed, and had the deed re-recorded in time to close.
"The boundary line, three days out."
A dispute surfaced over where the property line actually ran with the neighboring property. Marcela Egea and Catalina Cutshaw went out themselves with a metal detector and a shovel, found the original survey pins, settled the dispute on the spot, and saved the deal.
