I can’t say enough good things about working with Kevin. As a homebuyer in Oak Creek, I wanted someone who would actually listen, explain the process, and look out for my best interests—not someone who was just trying to close a deal. Kevin went above and beyond from start to finish. He was responsive, knowledgeable, honest, and always willing to take the time to answer my questions. Even when things got stressful, he stayed calm and found solutions. I always felt like I had someone in my corner. Buying a home is a huge decision, and having the right REALTOR makes all the difference. I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Franklin/Oak Creek or anywhere in southeastern Wisconsin. If you want someone who genuinely cares about his clients and knows how to get the job done, Kevin is your guy.

KG is the person I trust to buy or sell my homes and those of the people I care about. I have personally used him three times. My friends and family have all had great success using him as well. Update: 8/26/2026 While this remains true, we just used KG and his team again. The property was special to us and we knew we needed to be the ones who got their dream home. KG and our mortgage broker (A+ Mortgage) put the strategy together, explained the risks, and we bought a property sight unseen before others even had the chance to make an offer. KG is the difference between the person who gets their dream home and the one who has to keep dreaming.

We first met Kevin completely by chance when he covered an open house for another realtor when we sold our first home in 2017. We have trusted him with every home and move since - always giving referrals when we can. He is personable, caring, honest and incredibly hard working, even with our most random questions! Our most recent property purchase required FAST actions and he got our offer accepted. We wouldn't trust anyone else with our real estate adventures.

It was a pleasure working with DeAnn and Chuck. They were tenacious in finding just the right house for us. They went over and above my expectations and were available at all times day and night to answer all our questions. I highly recommend these people when looking to move.

Lovely, patient and kind realtor. I enjoyed every step of the process with them.

We knew, years ago, that if we ever sold our home that we would be asking Kevin Garde to be our realtor. The time came and we were excited that he would happily represent our modest little Milwaukee house. It doesn’t get much better than having a first meeting with your realtor and he brings your whole family to the table for a prayer over the upcoming process. That is Kevin! Kevin has a special gift to help to settle any seller anxiety during the process … with just a simple few words or a fun emoji through text message. Kevin also has a great team helping the seller. We were grateful as newbies to the sale process. Thank you Julie!! Kevin, thank you for going above and beyond so much in the final few weeks prior to the sale.That is who you are!

Our realtor did an amazing job with being timely on communication and the house sale. He made it fun and memorable through his interactions with my family and how things got done.

As our selling realtor, Kevin did an amazing job with the sale of our home! From making sure we got the right price to referring and connecting us to contractors for “touch ups” needed in the last moment. Kevin has very wide portfolio of expertise, which is very valuable whether you are buying or selling. I was so happy when Kevin made a social media post to broadcast my chocolate chip cookies that I baked for the open house. (“C” is for cookie that’s good enough for me!) He knows how to get the whole family involved in the excitement of selling! Thanks Kevin! 😊

I had a wonderful experience working with Kevin Garde throughout the entire process of purchasing my first home. As a first-time homebuyer, there were definitely a lot of things I was unfamiliar with, but Kevin made the entire experience feel smooth and straightforward from beginning to end. He was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, always keeping me updated, answering my questions, and making sure I understood what was happening every step of the way. Whenever I needed assistance or had a concern, Kevin was quick to respond and always willing to help. Buying your first home can definitely feel overwhelming, but having Kevin there to guide me through the process made a huge difference. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and I truly appreciated his professionalism, communication, and willingness to help throughout the entire experience. I would absolutely recommend Kevin Garde to anyone looking to purchase a home, especially first-time homebuyers. Thank you again, Kevin, for helping make buying my first home such a great experience!

We worked with Jose Hernandez as our realtor and he was amazing. Very professional and always prompt on our requests to view properties. We were kept informed throughout the home buying process. We would 100% recommend working with Jose and his team 👍.

When you’re trying to buy your dream home while selling your current one, every decision matters. Looking back, I’m convinced we wouldn’t be in our new home without Kevin. It wasn’t just because he knows the market. It was how he approached every conversation, built relationships with the seller’s side, positioned our offer, and coached us through each decision without ever making us feel pressured. When it came time to sell, his pricing strategy and marketing were spot on, and the results exceeded our expectations. The thing I’ll remember most, though, is how much he genuinely cared. By the end of the process, he didn’t feel like “our realtor.” He felt like someone who was celebrating every win with us and carrying the weight of every stressful moment alongside us. If you’re looking for someone who is strategic, incredibly skilled, and truly invested in helping your family find the right home, I can’t recommend Kevin enough. We gained our dream house, but we also gained someone we’ll always be grateful for.

Kevin guided us through the process with a lot of diligence, patience and he was always available when we needed him! As first home buyers we are happy with him.

The perfect choice for buying and selling simultaneously!Although this wasn't our first home purchase, we needed more space and were looking to buy a new house and sell our current one at the same time. Kevin was there every single step of the way. He and his team were highly communicative, incredibly knowledgeable, and instrumental in helping us get our purchase offer accepted first. When it came time to sell, Kevin came over personally to make sure we had everything lined up for a perfect showing. His photographer was excellent and made our house look beautiful. Kevin absolutely nailed the asking price strategy—he called the exact number before putting it up for sale, creating a highly competitive market that got us well over asking price. If/when we ever need to do this again, I hope Kevin is still around to assist us. I cannot recommend him enough for anyone in the market to buy or sell! #KGSells

Kevin and the Enlighten Realty Group MKE were wonderful. Every step of the home buying process was strait forward simple and clear. Since we met Kevin and his team we have recommended them to several people. These guys are professionals. And they are also really friendly helpful folks.

Kevin and team were excellent partners in the house-buying process: Thorough, timely, and helpful, and above all, personable friendly people. We would work with them again, and have already referred some friends to him. Thanks Enlighten Realty! --Dave

From the initial introduction to closing, they handle everything seamlessly and keep me informed throughout the process. I trust them completely with my clients in the Milwaukee area and highly recommend their team.

Heather at Enlighten guided our family through a complicated relocation process with professionalism and assurance. What started as a plan to sell and build ended with a 1.5 year process of buying a lot, selling a home, short-term rental housing, buying our home, and selling a lot for our family of four. Throughout, Heather never took short cuts or steered us for the easy sale. Rather, she guided us through informed decisions that led to the purchase of a true dream forever home. She is on top of her game when it comes to all steps in the selling and buying processes, and I wouldn’t think of going through this process again without the full-service professionalism of a realtor like Heather. I have no reservations against recommending Heather for anyone in the Milwaukee area.
