“I’ve been advertising in KC Homes/KCHome Lifestyle magazine for many years.

During the last few tough years, it continued to be a great value when marketing my listings. I’ve received many leads over the years from the magazine and its associated online presence... It gives me an edge when interviewing with Sellers. I’m excited about the recent changes they’ve made in the magazine, and I believe their new look will bring new appeal to the magazine, and carry them into the future as still a great value and a great means of advertising for agents that want to reach more potential buyers.” Julie Deppen Keller Williams Realty Partners, Inc.

“Recently, Gwen Kemper was selected to market a property because this particular lady knew we advertised in the KCHOME and Lifestyle. In fact, she pulled out a recent issue to comment on our advertising and said she liked the fact that we did not just advertise on the Internet. Her home featured on the front cover and sold within a short time.”

Micki Trotter/Gwen Kemper of Woodward Real Estate “18 years ago I started my career in real estate. KCHOME and Lifestyle evolved and our listings are distributed by the magazine to hundreds of websites world wide and we get a lot of leads from these websites. To this day, people instinctively pick up the KCHOME and Lifestyle magazine at the grocery store, and we still receive calls daily from those house hunters.”

“KCHOME and Lifestyle has been a great partner through the years.

Always helpful.”

Martin & MaryJo Ricono of Reece&Nichols Lee’s Summit

Summit Custom Homes has officially announced that they will build Kansas City’s 2014 St. Jude Dream Home.

This will be Summit’s 4th annual Dream Home campaign.

The project was kicked off on Wednesday, January 15 with Bricks & Sticks and Groundbreaking.

Summit’s vendors, trade partners, sponsors, and supporters were in attendance, and had the opportunity to sign up to participate in the project. For the past two years, Summit has built net zero homes.

“Our Dream Homes are 100% donated, from the ground up. Our trade partners and supporters are so amazing. They give so much of their time, talent, and energy to the Dream Home project, and for that we are extremely grateful. St. Jude is close to our hearts, and has become a part of our everyday culture at Summit. The hospital is doing astounding research, which they share freely with other hospitals. No family ever has to pay for their child’s treatment at St. Jude. We fully embrace the organization and are so happy to be a part of the Dream Home Giveaway,” said Megan Fratzke, Marketing Manager for Summit Custom Homes.

To date, Summit has raised over $3 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. In 2012, the company was awarded the “Builder of the Year” and “Zero Hero” awards, and in 2013, they again received the “Zero Hero” award for their net zero home.

The public will have the opportunity to purchase tickets for a chance to win the Dream Home. Tickets will be $100 each, and will go on sale in June 2014. The home is being built in The Shores at Chapman Farms, at 8808 SE 1st StreetBlue Springs, MO 64064.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is the global leader in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other deadly diseases. Because the majority of St. Jude funding comes from the public, St. Jude has the freedom to focus on what matters most – saving kids regardless of their financial situation. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.

The St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway was created in 1991 by Dr. Donald Mack in Shreveport, Louisiana. Today, the Giveaway is one of the largest single-event fundraisers for St. Jude nationwide and has raised more than $260 million. This year, the program will include more than 30 St. Jude Dream Home Giveaways and will continue to grow.

Real Estate Team donates $50k to Big Brothers,Big Sisters of Kansas City!

The Rob Ellerman Team of Reece & Nichols Realtors began with the idea that trust, communication and honesty are the foundation for any successful, professional relationship. These ideals, combined with strategic marketing, adaptability and creativity are just a few of the attributes that describe this team.

Growing from 5 to more than 40 veteran agents, the team represents over a century of valuable industry experience. Through their success of almost $130m in sales, 560 homes sold in 2013, the Rob Ellerman Team knows the importance of giving back throughout the year to the communities in which they serve.

To show their appreciation of a very successful 2013, they have donated $50,000 to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kansas City. The team knows that only through our youth will Kansas City continue to grow.

They take a special interest in Kansas City’s youth and believes every child deserves a chance to be all they can be. In addition, the team raised over $30k for St. Jude Children’s Hospital during the year.Per Rob Ellerman, “We feel that not only are we giving back from our team members, but also for the clients that have entrusted us with buying or selling their home and in doing so, helped with our success.

These donations represent each and every one of them.”The $50,000 will go toward the special mentoring programs, their big events and providing free lunches for those children needing assistance. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kansas City positively affects children in the Kansas City community. Every day, they work tirelessly to change the perspectives of children and give them an opportunity to achieve great things.
