Every great real estate team starts with a partnership. For Lance and Karen Kenmore, it began fresh out of college with a shared goal: to build something of their own and create a better real estate experience for their clients.

They built the Kenmore Team from the ground up, one client at a time. In the early days, Lance worked directly with buyers and sellers while Karen managed the paperwork and marketing behind the scenes. Their approach was personal, hands-on, and driven by a refusal to settle for “good enough.”

That mindset led Lance and Karen to study top-performing real estate teams across the country, learning what the best in the industry were doing differently and bringing those ideas back to the Tri-Cities. That commitment to continuous learning and innovation still shapes the team today.

What started as a two-person operation has grown into a full-service real estate firm with more than 30 team members serving Richland, Kennewick, Pasco, and the surrounding Tri-Cities. Along the way, they expanded their services to better meet the changing needs of their clients and community.

Through every stage of growth, their core values have remained the same: innovation, integrity, efficiency, hard work, and genuine relationships. Today, Lance serves as Designated Broker and Karen as Operations Director, leading the Kenmore Team with the same client-first approach that started it all.
