Safe Haven Home Team: Kalina Eichstaedt & Lisa Pusheck - Caring - Nurturing - Joyful - Positive - Giving When you get to know Kalina and Lisa from the Safe Haven Home Team, you understand the power of their team name, and how perfectly it identifies why they work so incredibly well together. Who else spends three days looking for a lost puppy, and won’t give up until the puppy is found and returned to a safe haven? Who else drops everything to set aside time to write a personal note of encouragement, just when you need it most?

When you think of Kalina and Lisa, you will be reminded of your favorite teacher, closest friend, and trusted advisor - all wrapped-up into one team. We are blessed to have the Safe Haven Home Team as an important part of our Realty Executives Family! Thank you Kalina and Lisa for pouring into others so well, and for bringing an abundance of joy to all those you serve.

FAMILY

By Becky Wilde

To some, the true meaning of family means a group of people related by blood or ancestry. To others, it has nothing to do with genes and everything to do with love, compassion, and support. The definition of the word family can mean many things.

At Realty Executives Integrity it means all of the above! There are several of our Sales Executives that are related by blood or ancestry. To name just a few…

Barb and Kent Breitenfeldt brought in their daughter Alaina to be on their team. Peggy Bodway joined forces with her daughter Danielle. John Plavsic’s son Alex is going through the pre-licensing course and is looking forward to being on John’s team. Dionne Barnes opened up the opportunity for her daughter Kesha to join her team. The list goes on and on and it doesn’t stop there!

When you become a member of the Realty Executives Family, the love, compassion and support overflows from those around you. Last month we had the opportunity to spend a few hours at our Family Reunion sharing stories. We heard from those that recently joined the family and those that have been a part of the family for several decades. We honored one that left this world way to early but will be in our hearts forever and we celebrated life together. Boy was it sweet!

The Family Reunion doesn’t need to be over…. I would like to encourage you to connect with one of your fellow Sales Executives. Grab a cup of coffee or lunch, go for a walk, just pick up the phone to say “Hi”. Share some stories, some things that helped you in the business, some things that you learned along the way and most importantly, share some friendship. It’s the little moments in life that really end up being huge.

There is no limit in size when it comes to family. Today, we have over 200 family members and I cannot wait to see our family grow!

GET TO KNOW | Mikayla Messer Mikayla is one of the newer faces at our Brookfield front desk and was referred by Dana Keegan and her daughter, Bella! She is always welcoming visitors with a bright smile and an eagerness to help. In just a few short months, Mikayla has made a home for herself amongst our community and she is growing her skillset each day. She is always willing to take on a challenge and learn new skills. Mikayla has become an integral part of your front desk support team and we are so grateful to have her with us.

Outside of Realty Executives Integrity, Mikayla is a freshman at UWMilwaukee majoring in Architecture and Urban Planning. With a love for buildings, the history of their architecture and how they have come in and out of popularity…real estate was a natural fit. With her degree, Mikayla plans to pursue a career in either residential architecture helping people build the homes of their dreams or working on building restorations.

When not working or having her nose in a book, Mikayla enjoys relaxing with a few episodes of Grey’s Anatomy…her current obsession! She also loves to spend time with her pet bunny, Timothee. Her beloved bunny might be named after the actor with the same unique spelling, but she will neither confirm nor deny that fact. When she’s not playing fetch with her bunny, Mikayla spends time exploring the city with her friends.

Mikayla has 3 siblings, an older brother, Marcus 21, and two younger sisters, Madisyn 13 and Abigail 3, whom she lobbied the family to name “microwave” (thankfully she was unsuccessful in that quest). Fun fact: Mikayla is TERRIFIED of butterflies. Her first encounter was when she was a kid, at the public museum’s butterfly exhibit. She was the child running full sprint through the exhibit crying and looking for the exit.

Thankfully, she can laugh at the moment now, but isn’t encouraging any butterfly related gifts to come her way!

WHY REALTY EXECUTIVES

“

“I initially started at Realty Executives Integrity for the same reason we all start new jobs - the convenience. It was close to home and to the college that I am attending, but in the short time I have worked here, it has grown into so much more than just a job. The Realty Executives Integrity team has turned into my family. I love coming into work because of the people - the family that I work with. The gratefulness, compassion, and understanding that I see from those in leadership positions here is unprecedented. It has given me room to grow and learn without feeling the daunting pressure of perfection from my superiors. So, this has become more than just a job; this has become an opportunity to grow as a professional alongside my family.”

TIME TO CELEBRATE MELISSA WALKER 2 Year Anniversary

What got me into Real Estate is a funny story, two good friends of mine asked me to join them and form a real estate brokerage about 17 years ago. At the time I thought they were nuts. Why would I ever want to work for myself? I was taught to go to school, get a good education, and get a high paying job.

That is exactly what I did. I was on track to make six figures the next year in my career and my fiancé, now husband, and I wanted to start a family. In my mind, starting a business was a risk I just couldn’t afford.

Fast forward to 2018 and I felt this shift in me. The clouds had begun to clear after my mom’s unexpected death and I felt I wanted to do more. Just wasn’t certain what that would look like. Since moving to Wisconsin, almost ten years ago, I worked as a stay-athome mom to our children; Gabrielle and Victoria. They are phenomenal young women! So I spoke with a dear friend from college about real estate as a possible career and she laughed. She brought up my initial reaction about the business from many years ago. I spoke with my family and close friends about it and they were all really supportive. My husband, my biggest fan, was really excited to see me enter this new phase of my life. I now know I made the right choice. This is my calling!

I love problem solving. Not a single transaction is identical and each has varying challenges. I love when I can present a client with a solution to a problem. Purchasing or selling a home can be exciting with many moving parts. It is great to make this very emotional time in someone’s life easier.

My experiences at Realty Executive Integrity have been exceptional! From my first meeting with Becky, to my mentors, everyone I’ve come into contact with in this company has a spirit of serving. Everyone is willing to answer questions, offer guidance, and most importantly share their wisdom about the real estate business. I feel compelled to do the same and will continue to make Realty Executives Integrity great!

I cannot tell you the fear and trepidation I felt about going out on my own. I keep thinking of the line, ‘Heavy is the head that wears the crown’. Often we see the end result and don’t recognize the struggle and hard work involved. It is not easy being a team leader. When I approached the leadership of the company about forming a team, the response was so encouraging. Everyone made sure I had everything I needed to start my business with a strong foundation. I cannot thank them enough for continuously supporting me through this process.

HOW WE GIVE BACK

The Realty Executives Wisconsin Region believes that community support and outreach is incredibly important. We actively support the following charitable organizations and each one is connected personally with a member of the Realty Executives Wisconsin brand.

HOW CAN YOU GIVE BACK? • Donate a portion of your commissions easily through our accounting department • Volunteer your time at upcoming events • Reach out and ask • Raise awareness by posting or sharing posts on social media

Habitat for Humanity | www.Habitat.org Envisioning a world where everyone has a decent place to live, Habitat builds and renovates homes for families in need of sustainable housing.

Before 16 | www.Before16.org This 501 (c)3 nonprofit foundation was built to care for orphans and strive to get children hosted by a family who is either considering adoption or will be strong advocates for their adoption. Their hope is the hosting process will provide the avenue to find a loving family for each child before they turn 16 and are kicked out of the system.

SALS | www.SALShouses.org By providing a non-institutional sober living environment, SALS offers freedom with accountability for men and women who are serious about their sobriety.

JR’s Pups-N-Stuff | www.JrPupsNStuff.org This rescue began with one goal in mind: to save animals from life-threatening situations. It was built by a network of foster parents in the Milwaukee area so that animals don’t have to spend their days waiting for their fur-ever families in a kennel. It’s no wonder they’re known as the “little rescue with a big heart”.

Lindsay’s Voice | www.TreesOfHopeWI.org Dedicated to raising awareness for blood cancers such as Leukemia and Lymphoma as well as raising funds to support patient services and ongoing local research, Lindsay’s Voice was founded as a way to celebrate the life of Lindsay (Wenzel) Lopez.

EXPERIENCE A

Dinner of Honor

NEXT DINNER IS IN THE BEGINNING OF 2021 | Maggiano’s Little Italy Join us and bring a guest who you would like to see join our Realty Executives Family!

Reserve your spot TODAY with BeckyWilde@RealtyExecutives.com The Dinner of Honor concept came from Rich Rector who was the President of Realty Executives International at that time. Rich was also the Broker Owner of the largest Realty Executives Brokerage in the world, with over 1,200 agents. Dale connected with Rich during one of our Realty Executives International Conferences. It was during that trip, that Rich shared the Dinner of Honor concept with Dale. Bringing quality agents to our Brokerage has always been important to us and Dale asked Rich to share a little about how he brought so many quality agents to his brokerage. The answer was simple…. You GET quality Sales Executives FROM quality Sales Executives. Rich went on to further explain the concept of the Dinner of Honor. You invite your Sales Executives to a dinner where you can honor and pour into them. Encourage them to invite a guest in the industry to join them for dinner and spend the evening sharing a meal, telling stories, laughing and honoring one another. Rich shared, it’s a great way for others to see who we are and the why behind everything we do. We immediately made plans to create our own version of the Dinner of Honor. Our very first Dinner of Honor was held in 2017 at Maggiano’s and three years later they are stronger than ever. We’ve added our little touches along the way. Sometimes there’s live music, sometimes there are games with prizes, sometimes there are spouses there that also get honored. One thing remains the same though… we get to continue honoring our current Sales Executives while having a great meal and great conversation! As a result of these special evenings, many Dinner of Honor guests have made the decision to join our Realty Executives family and we have been thrilled. If you are interested in inviting a guest in the industry to our next Dinner of Honor on June 18th, please reach out to us!
