A little bit about me...

With seven years in the real estate industry, Kelly Keating has built a career marked by resilience, growth, and success. Starting as a stay-at-home mom, she transitioned into real estate, gaining experience on teams, thriving as an independent agent, and now returning to a team setting to expand her business while mentoring others. Last year alone, she achieved over $2 million in sales independently, contributing to an impressive career total exceeding $30 million.

Kelly’s drive for excellence stems from her entrepreneurial spirit, which she developed early in life while watching her father run his own business. She understands the dedication and grit it takes to succeed, and she applies that same mindset to her work in real estate.

Beyond real estate, Kelly holds a degree in nutrition and dietetics, fueling her deep passion for fitness and health. A lifelong volleyball player, she continues to compete in a sand volleyball league, embracing the teamwork and discipline that sports instill.

As a single mom to her 16-year-old daughter, Olivia, and 12-year-old son, Logan, Kelly leads by example—showing them the value of hard work, independence, and perseverance. She is committed not only to her own success but also to empowering others on their journeys, whether in business, real estate, or personal growth.
