OUR HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

Suzanne Powers established Powers Realty Group, Inc. on September 29, 2011 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Suzanne Powers founded Powers Realty Group, Inc. on September 29, 2011, with a vision as ambitious as it was personal.

“In true entrepreneurial spirit, we began Suzanne Powers Realty Group from my home, starting with 29 listings in Milwaukee’s North Shore. My dining room became our conference room, and our living room turned into the heart of buyer presentations. It was a humble beginning, but it was uniquely ours.”

These early days brought a sense of intimacy to the real estate journey, as Suzanne’s home became a haven for clients navigating the often stressful process of buying and selling.

“Our clients embraced the experience—meeting around the dining table, sharing stories, and building connections. Those moments, filled with laughter, trust, and shared dreams, laid the foundation for something extraordinary.”

Suzanne Powers and Gretchen Keating - Sept 29, 2011

Even now, many of Suzanne’s early clients fondly recall the late-night offer discussions and heartfelt conversations that took place in her home. It wasn’t just about real estate; it was about creating a place where business felt personal and every client was treated like family.

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE

Six months later, Powers Realty Group transitioned from a cozy home setting to a more permanent location—a neglected duplex on Oakland Avenue in Milwaukee's North Shore.

After
Before

With Suzanne’s vision and nine months of meticulous planning, the duplex underwent a remarkable transformation into a vibrant, two-story commercial space. Every detail, from the design of the building to the custom-crafted sign, was executed with intention and care.

This dedication to excellence was recognized when Powers Realty Group proudly received Shorewood’s 2013 Façade Improvement Award, marking a milestone for both the company and the community.

Today, Suzanne Powers Realty Group stands as a testament to those early days of vision, perseverance, and heartfelt dedication. It’s more than a business—it’s a legacy built with passion and the unwavering belief that real estate is about more than properties; it’s about people and the stories we create together.

“I wanted our office to embody the same welcoming spirit our clients have come to love in Milwaukee. From the layout to the décor, I brought the essence of home into our professional space—a warm, inviting atmosphere where clients feel both comforted and cared for.”

AGENT MENTORSHIP

“Suzanne has built the most supportive company for agents. She has gently guided me in the right direction to take my career to a level I couldn't have imagined possible. She believed in me before I believed in myself. She is a thought leader in our market; she is strong, smart, and kind. Suzanne is one of the best mentors an agent could have.”

~ Gretchen Keating, Vice President and Director of Corporate Relocation
