Blog Buyer New Memories to Make in St. Johns

New Memories to Make in St. Johns

By Tracey Henkels, December 27, 2021

Congratulations to Kelsey and Maddie!

Kelsey and Maddie really wanted a home in the St. Johns neighborhood and found a few gems that they were super excited about. As these things go sometimes with first-time home buyers, they were in backup position twice on great homes. However, they soon found their footing in this competitive market and learned how to put in an unbeatable offer by following our advice. They stuck with it and finally got their dream St. Johns home: a fantastic one-level corner home with beautiful updates and a big backyard.

Kelsey and Maddie persevered in a tricky market and were rewarded for their efforts with a stunner of a house! Congratulations Kelsey and Maddie, we are thrilled for you! And thanks to my team member, Jasmine Deatherage for bringing these lovely buyers to our team experience.

She/Her

Tracey Henkels attributes her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun on her family's apple orchard in Iowa. Gratefully, that Midwestern mentality has served her well over the years as Tracey continues to deliver excellent customer service, superior technical skill, and a wide array of industry knowledge on behalf of her clients. While Tracey wouldn't trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was Architecture. After receiving her degree at Iowa State University, Tracey worked in the architecture world for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path. In 2004, Tracey jumped heart-first into the world of helping her people buy and sell houses. She's never looked back. When you meet Tracey, one of the first things you notice is her positive energy, and zest for life. One of her favorite things about being a broker is the ability to help people make powerful transitions. Tracey's natural patience, unwavering professionalism, and optimistic attitude make her both a compassionate broker and tough negotiator. Tracey is committed to serving others, making a difference in her community, and giving back. When she isn't working hard to best serve her clients, you might find her tending to her garden, growing fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, cross country skiing, or planning her next exciting adventure.   Tracey works as a team, alongside Kelsey Burkett, Broker Licensed in OR.
