KC Vintage Realty is my partner broker.  Bonnie Chambers is one of the most knowledgeable brokers in the area when it comes to real estate contracts and transactions.  Not only do you get me with 15 years of experience, but you also have her as backup representation and support with decades of experience in the Kansas City real estate market.  

I partnered with Bonnie on a real estate transaction.  It was during this time I learned how knowledgeable she was of real estate law.  Also I was impressed with how she practiced the real estate code of ethics in her work.
