The Schennbergs 
Kae & Richard

Kae Schennberg:

Richmond, KY is our home and the place where I was born.  I attended all the local schools, and later on attended Eastern KY University majoring in Business Administration.  For approximately twelve years I worked as an Administrator at the University of Kentucky,   In the year 2000, I made a big career move toward a full-time sales position exclusively in real estate.  It has been a wonderful and exciting decision.

My husband Richard and I are now Brokers/Owners in our brand new real estate company Francis & Schennberg Realty, LLC in Richmond, KY.   Every year I like to set a goal  to strive to obtain.   During the year of 2004, my goal was to obtain a multi-million dollar producer status.  I obtained that goal which has enabled me to become a member of the "Million Dollar Club".  In June of 2005, my goal was to become an Associate Broker and a Certified New Home Specialist.  In 2006 my goal was to own our own Company and we started Francis and Schennberg Realty, LLC.  In 2007, I became the Principal Broker of our own real estate company.  Who knows what 2008 will bring.  I am running out of goals...

To better serve our buyer/seller clients and provide maximum MLS exposures for our listings,  I joined both local MLS listing boards in our area.    I am a current member of the Lexington Realtor´s Association  (Lbar.com), a member of the Madison County Board of Realtors (Mbcrhomes.com), a member of the National Realtor´s Association,  a member of the Kentucky Realtor´s Association, a member of the Kentucky Auctioneer's Association, and the Richmond Chamber Association.

In addition to real estate, I have been a residential property manager for over 26 years.   I have certainly needed the skills in problem solving that I have acquired through the years to assist people in real estate and property management.   Helping people, and making new friends has always given me enjoyment. I have finally found my niche in real estate and property management; and many of our clients have become our life long friends.  The most amazing aspect of real estate is bringing buyer and seller together and finalizing the sale.  It is extremely rewarding and very satisfying to enable and facilitate people in obtaining their goals.  Buying and selling a home can be an overwhelming experience to the buyer or seller; I enjoy the opportunity to reduce those fears with sound professional advice and experience. 

Richard Schennberg:

I was born in Chicago and grew up in Park Ridge, Illinois.  I attended Transylvania University to be closer to relatives and ended up staying in Kentucky.  I earned a Master of Science Degree and taught Mathematics at the University of Kentucky.  I also worked part-time in sales.  I served nine years active duty in the US Air Force, flying C-130 Tactical Transport Aircraft and finally serving as the Executive Officer for the Operations Group Commander.  After the first Gulf War, I continued to serve in the US Air Force Reserves.

My wife needed assistance with real estate, and eventually I obtained first my Sales Associate license to assist her.  Two years and four months later I earned my Associate Broker license.  We make a very good team not just in real estate.  We are involved in competitive handgun shooting as a hobby and sport. We are both members of Bluegrass Sportsmen´s League, Anderson County Sportsmen´s Club, Ashland Gun Club, US Practical Shooting Association, International Defensive Pistol Association, Glock Sport Shooting Foundation, International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association, and Single Action Shooting Society.  We even went to a regional shooting competition during our honeymoon.

We are also avid computer users and belong to Central Kentucky Computer Society, one of the largest computer clubs in the US.  Real estate has been a great way to meet new people and friends.  We have both found it to be very rewarding to help buyer clients to find the home of their dreams, while allowing sellers to move on.  It is our collective goal to provide the best counsel, the most accurate advise and service that we possibly can for our clients.
