We believe the most important part of real estate is people. Our mission is to bring clarity, compassion, & satisfaction to every step. You'll be proud you did!

If you're navigating a big change, we listen, act with integrity, & guide you like family. Meet Liz Keller:

Buying your first property is an exhilarating experience. Whether you are looking to buy your first home or launch your career as a real estate investor, the hunt for the perfect property will fill you with excitement, anticipation, and hope. However, if you aren't careful about who you hi

re as your Des Moines Realtor, all of that hope and excitement will give way to frustration and disappointment. If you are anything like most people, you only want to work with a real estate agent that has the local knowledge to find the best properties, the professional knowledge to save you time, and the connections to save you money. Just like not all properties in Des Moines are created equally, you must understand that every Des Moines real estate agent is different and you are better off by hiring one that listens to you, prioritizes your goals, and has the experience working with people in your shoes. Any real estate agent in Des Moines can claim to be the best. But to truly understand what makes my clients say that about me, you must first understand what I bring to the table. Here are some cold, hard facts that prove I am driven by results:

Named RE/MAX's #1 Commercial Agent for the entire Midwest Region

Ranked top 5 Individual Agents for RE/MAX

Voted Top Agent for customer satisfaction and customer service on Trulia & Zillow

I understand that as you prepare to purchase your first property in Des Moines, you are likely filled with as many questions as you are dreams about taking this step. I promise to listen to every concern, answer every question, and resolve every challenge you have to get you the property you deserve. If you don't want to wait another minute to begin your journey as a homeowner or real estate investor, give me a call. Meet Chase Keller:

Would you trust your investments to a Realtor that knows more about running an open house than they do developing a diversification strategy? Do you feel comfortable hiring an agent that looks at you like a walking commission check? Are you satisfied with agents that simply go through the motions without any real drive or motivation? Of course not! Your real estate investments are massively important to your family's financial health, future, and quality of life. If you are anything like most successful people, you treat your investment portfolio as a business and only want to align yourself with the people that have as much respect for your business as they do their own. Here in Des Moines, any real estate agent can help you buy or sell a property. However, few if any agents have what it takes to help you go from novice investor to real estate mogul. When you decide to partner with me as your Realtor, you will benefit from:

Helping you wanting some direction in how to start your investment portfolio or if you already have some investing but need more of an understanding or education on how to make the investments work for you. If you know you aren't realizing your full potential as an investor but are ready to take that first step, schedule a free strategy session with me. I will sit down with you to get to the root of your goals, challenges, personality, preferences, and resources to build a customized strategy that gets you from where you are now to where you want to go.

The expensive mistake is assuming every longtime home needs a makeover before it can sell.

Sometimes the dated kitchen is not the problem. Sometimes the bigger issue is spending thousands on updates buyers would have replaced anyway.

With a senior home sale, the house is only one part of the equation. There may also be a move to coordinate, belongings to sort through, care plans changing, and family members trying to make decisions from different places.

At Chase Collective, we help Iowa families look at the whole picture before money gets spent or a sign goes in the yard.

Not sure what actually needs attention before selling a parent’s home? Ask us before you start making repairs.

The best real estate decision is not always the one that gets you moved the fastest.

For senior homeowners, the bigger question is whether your home still fits the life you want now and in the years ahead.

That means looking beyond what the house could sell for.

Can the home continue to support your safety and independence? Would downsizing make everyday life easier? How could a move affect your retirement finances? Are there family, estate, or timing considerations that should be addressed before making a decision?

These are the kinds of factors Seniors Real Estate Specialists are trained to consider. SRES education includes housing options for adults 50 and older, aging in place, retirement finances, estate planning considerations, and major life transitions that can influence a housing decision.

At Chase Collective, we believe the plan should come before the pressure.

If you are starting to wonder what the next few years could look like, start the conversation before you make the decision.

The house is usually not the first thing that needs a plan.

When a parent needs to move, the first priority is the person.

What do they need right now?

What do they want?

Who should be part of the conversation?

Once that is clear, then you can start working through the home, the belongings, possible repairs, the move itself, and eventually the sale.

Trying to solve all of it at once is how families end up overwhelmed before they have even started.

At Chase Collective, we help families navigate senior living transitions and selling a parent’s home with a plan that makes sense for the person first and the property second.

You do not need to have every answer today.

Start with what matters most, then take the next step from there.

Save this Reel for when your family needs it, or send it to the person helping you figure out what comes next.

Selling the family home is rarely just about the house.

There are memories, belongings, timing, family opinions, and about 47 different decisions hiding behind one “For Sale” sign.

That is why the right plan matters.

Chase Collective helps families sort through the real estate side and the real life side, one step at a time.

Sometimes the first sign that a home is getting harder to manage is not a big emergency.

It is Mom avoiding the basement.

Dad holding onto the furniture as he walks through the room.

A bathroom that suddenly feels a little less easy to use.

Those small changes are worth noticing.

They do not automatically mean it is time to move. Sometimes a few thoughtful modifications can make the home safer and more comfortable. Other times, they start a bigger conversation about what will make the next few years easier.

At Chase Collective, we help families look at the whole picture before making a real estate decision.

If you are starting to wonder whether your parent’s home still works for them, save this Reel and start the conversation.

Retirement changes the way you look at a lot of things, including your house.

Maybe you want less upkeep. Fewer stairs. More freedom to travel. Or simply a home that fits the life you want next.

The right real estate move should support your retirement plan, not compete with it.

At Chase Collective, we help you think through the timing, the home, and the bigger picture before you make a move.

The garage. The closets. The kitchen.

Three places families often underestimate when getting a senior’s home ready to sell.

The garage can hold years of tools, boxes, holiday decorations, and things nobody has touched in a very long time.

The closets matter because buyers are looking at storage. If every shelf and hanger is packed, even a good sized closet can feel smaller than it really is.

And the kitchen? Duplicate appliances, old cookware, expired food, and cabinets filled to the top can make the space feel less functional.

The goal is not to make the home look empty.

It is to help buyers see the space while still respecting the life that was lived there.

If you are helping a parent, take your time. Sort with a plan, decide what truly needs to go, and remember that you are not just decluttering a house. You are going through a lifetime of belongings.

At Chase Collective, we help families navigate senior downsizing and selling a parent’s home one step at a time.

You worked too hard for that home equity to give it away by accident.

Before you renovate, price, or decide how to sell, it pays to understand what your home is actually worth and which choices protect that value.

Chase Collective helps you look at the full picture so the equity you’ve built can keep working for what comes next.

08/25/2026

The hardest part usually isn’t deciding what to sell. It’s deciding what to do with 30 years of everything else.

When you’re helping a parent prepare a longtime home for sale, the goal is not to empty the house overnight. It’s to make the process feel manageable, one decision at a time.

Start with the things that are clearly no longer serving the home or the person living in it. That creates breathing room before you ever get to the sentimental stuff.

At Chase Collective, we help families navigate senior downsizing and selling a parent’s home with a plan that makes sense for the house, the timeline, and the people involved.

If you’re staring at a garage, basement, or spare room thinking, “Where do we even start?” call us before you start hauling things out. We can help you figure out what actually needs to happen first.

08/24/2026

You do not need to have everything figured out today.

Sometimes peace of mind starts with simply knowing what your options are.

What would it take to sell the house?

What should we fix first?

How do we handle downsizing without making it feel overwhelming?

At Chase Collective, we help families talk through those questions before they become urgent.

Because a little planning now can make a big transition feel a whole lot easier later.
