Engel & Völkers Venice Downtown welcomes local real estate expert, Kelly Pankiw from Keller Williams Island Life Real Estate
VENICE, Fla., May 5, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Engel & Völkers Florida today announced Kelly Pankiw has left Keller Williams Island Life Real Estate to join Engel & Völkers Venice Downtown as a real estate advisor. Pankiw brings with her more than 4 years of experience in real estate, specializing in lifestyle communities, relocation and seasonal housing throughout Sarasota County.
"I was at a crossroads in my career," said Pankiw. "I knew I was ready to expand my business, but in order to reach those goals and break into the luxury home market I had to realign myself with a more capable brand. Although KW has a 'luxury division,' I was looking for a brand that has proven systems in place to handle luxury transactions in a professional, organized manner. Likewise, being affiliated with an office that would appeal to the affluent consumer. Engel & Völkers has earned a world renowned reputation for prowess and white-glove service. The new shop in Downtown Venice is a perfect showcase of the Engel & Völkers brand, so I have a renewed confidence in providing bespoke services for my clients from there."
During her time with Keller Williams, Pankiw represented more than 100 transactions, totaling over $38-million in sales volume. She's actively involved in the local community through organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Venice-Nokomis Rotary and Rotary Club of Venice Suncoast.
"We are excited to bring on Kelly," said Victoria Stultz, License Partner of Engel & Völkers Venice Downtown. "She fits in perfectly with our culture. She possesses strong negotiation and organizational skills along with a positive energy and professional attitude that allow her clients to feel relaxed and excited about the home buying or selling process. Kelly has built her business with integrity, reliability, and a white-glove service which fosters repeat business and customer loyalty. She is a great addition to our growing team."
Stultz left Premier Sotheby's International Realty in 2021 to start her own brokerage by partnering with Engel & Völkers. Engel & Völkers Venice Downtown, located at 201 Miami Ave W in Historic Downtown Venice, is the first of three planned locations in Sarasota and Manatee Counties; Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch are forthcoming.
"Victoria has been the perfect partner for us in Sarasota County," said Peter Giese, CEO of Engel & Völkers Florida. "She is aligned with our core values and attracts full-time professional real estate advisors who aspire to reach new levels of personal success in their business. Currently, the average price of homes listed with Engel & Völkers in Florida is over $1.3-million and that is due, in part, to Victoria's shop contributing to our brands market share gains in million dollar plus properties throughout the State of Florida."
