THE KELLY HAGER
GROUP BUCKS TREND WITH $12.5 MILLION IN SALES
In
a recovering market, local real estate company generates healthy home sales
numbers
In what remains a challenging real estate market, The Kelly
Hager Group thekellyhagergroup.com
continues to post strong home sales numbers in the St. Charles and St. Louis
County areas.
“We are definitely bucking a trend in an industry that is
still recovering,” said Kelly Hager, a licensed realtor who owns parts of two
Keller Williams market centers in Chesterfield and St. Charles. “We are
encouraged by our sales figures and expect to significantly grow those numbers
moving forward.”
An affiliate of Keller Williams, The Kelly Hager Group sold
70 homes and generated $12.5 million in total sales during 2011. In December
alone, The Kelly Hager Group sold 10 homes for $1.8 million.
“We increased our sales by 400 percent,” said Hager. “It was
truly a December to remember. We exceeded our projections and went far beyond
our expectations.”
Utilizing a team concept
and the latest in lead generation technology, Hager said her agents have been
able to consistently identify opportunities and successfully close
transactions.
“We are very aggressive
in hunting down business,” said Hager. “We are client driven with a
businesslike approach that is unique to the market.”
Hager also credits Keller
Williams for providing the ongoing training, tools and support to help her
business succeed.

“Keller will teach you
how to get more business and the company also gives you the autonomy to create
a brand that is unique and fits your market,” said Hager.
Because business is up,
Hager has expanded from a four-person team in the beginning of 2011 to the
current 15-person team, and is looking for grow further.
“We feel great about our
sales numbers but being able to create more jobs is particularly gratifying,”
said Hager. “We are fortunate to be in that position.”
Hager is also feeling
very fortunate these days. Nearly two years ago, an illness left her
hospitalized and in a coma for weeks. The exact nature of the illness was never
determined but Hager has since fully recovered.
“My team really sustained
the business in my absence” said Hager. “They did an amazing amount of work and
volume. I am so grateful to them as well as for the clarity I gained during the
whole experience.”
While Hager’s expertise
is real estate, she grew up in the bookstore business. She is the daughter of
Terry and Allen Mittelman, who owned the popular and very successful Library
Limited Ltd. in St. Louis for over three decades.
“I definitely learned a
lot about how to run a business,” she said. “They knew how to build and sustain
an independent bookstore and did so with great success.”
With the economy on the
upswing, interest rates at near-record lows, and first-time homebuyers
triggering the local market, Hager is confident about selling more homes in
2012.
“First-time homebuyers
are creating a ripple effect,” said Hager. “And we want to continue to ride
that ripple and generate a wave of more business this year.”
