A career in real estate has been a dream for decades for Kelly Stamper.
"I've wanted to become an agent since my 20s," Kelly said enthusiastically. "I'm a house junkie. My first click of the day is Zillow.
In the last 21 years, Kelly also owned her own successful cleaning business.
"As a little girl growing up in an apartment, I always just said, 'If I could only just have a little house,'" she said. "Part of it was that I always wanted a pet. I had a lot of friends who had homes and I just always wanted a place of our own."
Along with her desire to help people find a home of their own, Kelly said she also just has a genuine love for people.
"I love to talk to them and socialize," she said, noting that a former Sluss agent, Judy Perry, was her agent on two different occasions, and someone she really looked up to. "She was just so kind and always willing to go the extra mile, and that's definitely how I want to be with my people."
Kelly grew up in Shelby, lived in Galion, but has also lived in Ontario since 1995.
"I'm very anxious to help people find their forever home in the community where I grew up," she said. "I love this area. I love the small-town feel."
When she's not working, Kelly said she enjoys being outside.
"I love the sunshine. I love to do flowers and garden," she said. "I have three children and three grandchildren, a son-in-law and a daughter-in-law. All are very special to me."
Kelly has also been married to Keith Stamper for 26 years and her eyes lit up as she spoke about him.
"He's the best," she said. "He's my sunshine."
One of her most memorable life moments include scuba diving in Mexico under the stars. She also is proud to have led a drug abuse support group for three years for people suffering from addiction.
"That was life-changing for me," she said. "My faith and trust in God is what gets me through every aspect of my life."
