Channing Kelly, Qualifying Broker

As a REALTOR® I have deeply personal relationships with my clients. Buying and selling can be intensely emotional and the process opens a private window into my clients' personal and financial lives. I'm privileged to be a trusted advisor in this process.

When my mother asked me to return to Albuquerque in 2002 and join her in the real estate business, I wasn't sure what my future held. At the time she said: "Just give me two years and if you don't love it, you can leave." Needless to say, I loved it and what began as a job has transformed into my passion. I have been lucky enough to learn (and keep learning!) from one of the true icons in our community—Ida's kind, generous, ethical, and personal brand of real estate is what makes our company culture so unique.

In 2007 I chose to upgrade my license to a Qualifying Broker's license and Ida and I now co-own our company. We work as a team—bringing our complimentary strengths to serve our clients.

I thrive on collaborating with our clients to help them achieve their real estate goals. Working with sellers to prepare their home for sale and present it to the market, and getting to know buyers so I can put together the puzzle of neighborhood, home, and features that will suit them best. I am personally invested in successful outcomes for each and every one of our clients.

I received my Bachelor of Arts from Wesleyan University in Connecticut. After graduation I worked in hotel management at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco and subsequently moved east to work in the nascent dot-com industry in both New York City and Boston, MA. I'm an Albuquerque native and am privileged to have attended Albuquerque Academy and Manzano Day School.
