Kim Knapp launched her real estate career in 2001 with a bang, selling $6 million in her first year. By 2005, she was not only selling but also training agents and leading a powerhouse team. With nearly half a billion in sales and over 2,000 families served, Kim has walked the walk and knows the real-life challenges and opportunities agents face.

Some call her a straight shooter—she just calls it being real.

REALTOR ®, Eden Jordan Team, Coldwell Banker Vanguard Realty

Eden has been an agent in Clay County, Florida since 1998. She is consistently a top performer in her market and prides herself on having an outstanding reputation among other agents and the community. Guiding and teaching other agents is one of her favorite parts of the business. She has mentored multiple agents over the years who are now in management or are top performers in her brokerage. While others may dread problem solving, she loves when she can solve a difficult problem. A good problem solver makes a good agent. Eden has a love for monitoring and dissecting statistics and numbers because it is what drives the market. That insight and love for numbers sets her apart from many of her competitors. She also believes hands-on experience is the best way to learn about the real estate business. You can take a thousand classes but never gain what you gain from hands-on learning. Eden learned hands-on working for her mother-in-law…they would go on vacation for weeks at a time in a world where you had no internet on your phone and met people in person to get a contract signed! After almost 27 years, she has learned how to navigate the ever changing market by being honest, realistic, and informative towards her clients.

Broker-Associate, Team Lead of The Welch Team, Keller Williams St. Johns

Graduating from Georgia Southern University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, I moved to Jacksonville ready to begin my new career. Struggling to work my way up the ladder, it didn’t take long to realize I was in the wrong industry.
What came next changed the course of my life. I became a licensed Florida Real Estate Sales Associate and later a licensed Broker. I left the corporate world and never looked back. It was time to pursue my true passion, real estate.
It’s said that timing is everything and to some I chose the worst timing possible to launch my new career in real estate. Every situation that could arise, arouse and problem solving became second nature to me. Pardon the pun but I truly learned the real estate business from the ground up. I had started at the beginning of the worst bubble burst since the depression. I quickly learned the importance of customer service and grew my business by helping homeowners get out of distress homes while aiding buyers in finding the home of their dreams.
Starting on my own in 2006 and then developing the Welch Team in 2012, in just 4 years, my team has grown to one of the top teams in Northeast Florida. I believe in consistent training, utilizing new technology, and over and above customer service. It’s all a part of what helps separate Welch Team from our competition.
