“We’ve got a new addition to the CENTURY21 team!”

W

e asked Kelly what started her career in real estate-: I can remember the date, day of the week, what I was wearing, where I was standing, and weather, the moment my husband called saying…“we got it!” What a moment to remember. I am now excited to be the one saying, “You’ve got it!” My vision will not end with “you’ve got it,” or “they’ve accepted!” It is much deeper than that. My vision includes a purpose and an audacious mission.

Introducing

Kelly Rogge 831-706-8753 kellyrogge@me.com www.KellyRogge.com

We asked Kelly what her mission is as a REALTOR®. Mission: To be considered among the most admired of real estate agents. Although this mission seems difficult, I am determined to succeed. I measure this by relationships and referrals, not sales. I am a realist…and am prepared to create those relationships in an attempt to accomplish that mission. A little something personal about KellyI have an indescribable love for photography. Ironically, a picturesque backdrop of a house (for sale) in Ben Lomond, created the idea for my real estate career. CENTURY 21 Showcase, REALTORS is excited about having Kelly become apart of our team we feel her love for real estate combined with her integral relationship with the SLV community, has spawned her into an agent whom works with, for, and about our community.
