"I first was introduced to Kelly Todd 5 years ago by my sister and her husband. Kelly had previously helped them find and buy their first house in Broad Ripple. And they highly recommended her and she did not let me down either. She readily helped me find and buy my first house in downtown Indy. She made it easy and calmed my fears of buying my first house by myself.
Since my first house buying experience went so well I didn't hesitate to call Kelly when I was ready to sell that starter house and look for something new. She once again made it easy on me, made great recommendations and worked hard to get my house sold quickly. She even helped find my new house that I love, in a great location, for a great price, in perfect timing so I could close on both houses the same week. And the whole process took only 2 ½ months from the time I called Kelly to get my house ready to put on the market, to being moved in my new house. Kelly and Allison both are very flexible and work with your schedule to get things done. Kelly and Allison are a great hard working team that I would recommend to anyone."

"As a first time home buyer I was extremely impressed with Kelly's knowledge of the local area, attention to detail and enthusiastic energy! She was an excellent resource for information regarding all of the decisions that need to be made while purchasing a home. She facilitated my every need and made the entire process a pleasure from start to finish. Kelly was personally recommended by neighbors of ours and she certainly lived up to their high recommendations. I am delighted with my new home and will not hesitate to contact The Kelly Todd Group for my future real estate needs!"
- Annie Cudahy
"As first time homebuyers, my husband and I had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. We knew what area we wanted to live in, but that was about it. Allison Steck brought it upon herself to educate us on everything we needed to know and made us feel much more confident about our final decision. She was very professional, well prepared, and extremely positive. She always had a smile on her face and made the whole process much more enjoyable than we expected. We look forward to working with the Kelly Todd Group again in the future."
- Jess & Graham Lukens
"Kelly and Allison helped us sell our home in Meridian Kessler during a very difficult market. They did a great job coming up with creative ideas to generate showings and ultimately finding a buyer. Before we put it on the market they were very helpful and honest in their assessment of how to improve its marketability, and after showings were diligent in getting feedback from the buyers' agents. What really impressed us is that they were patient when we weren't willing to accept a couple of lower offers despite all the hard work they put into the process. We could keep going but this story speaks for itself, in that we were able to get our full ask price. Give them a call, you'll be glad you did."
- Jenni & Luke Phenicie
"Have a challenging move to or from Indianapolis? Kelly Todd is definitely up for the challenge. After five and a half years in Indianapolis, I needed to sell my Meridian Kessler home for a move to the East Coast-ASAP! Within a month, Kelly had advised me on home improvements, staging, listed my home and received an offer-in just 28 days! Her positive attitude, extensive experience in complicated transactions, and her proactive, prompt approach in her correspondence to all parties instilled a great sense of confidence during the entire transaction.
After the offer was accepted, Kelly Todd kept me informed and on track during my move to the East Coast. She represented me for inspections, met with contractors and even represented me during closing. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and personal interest in the success of your sale exceeded all of my expectations. It was truly a joy to work with Kelly-I would definitely recommend her to my friends...or use her again if my career takes me back to Indianapolis!"
- Sandra Yencho
"Above and beyond are two words that I would use to describe my experience with Kelly and Allison. Buying a home is obviously a huge decision and as a first time home buyer the challenge seemed even more overwhelming. However, from day one my fears were eased when I met Kelly. She knew the area inside and out and helped me to indentify area that would be a perfect fit for me. Immediately I received a portfolio of how the entire process would take place and we started indentifying homes for me.
Kelly and Allison were super accommodating in scheduling times for viewing and at each house they were able to point out all the little things inside the houses that first time home buyers like myself would overlook. That comes through experience which I was easily catching on that they were the best in the business. Once it came time for an offer and eventually counter offers their experience showed as we negotiated back and forth and eventually I ended up with the perfect place in the price range I was looking for.
My mortgage loan officer who has been in the business a long time praised Kelly for her knowledge and quick responses saying she is "one of the best real estate agents he has ever worked with". I would have to agree. Kelly and Allison exceeded my expectations in every aspect of this process from start to finish and I would highly recommend them to anyone. They will go above and beyond to make sure you are getting the home of your dreams and for a fair price."
- Todd Klaassen
"Allison Steck and Kelly Todd recently helped us in selling and buying our home. We had a WONDERFUL experience with them. The fact that they are a team is a bonus because (have you ever wondered what would happen if your agent went on vacation while you were trying to sell your house?) they serve as each others' back-up; but it was the best of both worlds because we were able to build a relationship and communicate primarily with Allison. The arrangement worked great!
Allison is ethical, professional, diligent in follow-up, and applies the right amount of human touch. Most importantly, despite a soft economy and weak housing market they sold our home in Broad Ripple. We are convinced that Allison's professional yet friendly demeanor and persistent follow-up with other agents helped sell it faster than it would have otherwise. Allison also assisted us in finding a new home that is perfect for us.
The bottom line is they worked relentlessly in selling our home and finding us the ideal new house. We highly recommend the Kelly Todd Group for residential real estate needs."
- Jason & Laura Saleem
"Working with Kelly and Allison was a very positive experience. They were always quick to return our calls/emails and worked with us to visit potential homes and complete necessary paperwork right away--even when we were juggling busy schedules with one or both of us out of town several times during the final steps. Their knowledge and advice throughout the home buying process was invaluable and made the entire transaction run very smoothly. We are extremely happy with our new home and would happily recommend the Kelly Todd group to friends and colleagues."
- Margie & Zack Snyder
"While searching for my first home, I chose to use Kelly and Allison based on a recommendation from a coworker. He said that Kelly did an amazing job while he and his wife looked for a home in Broad Ripple. I had talked to another agent previously, chosen by chance, and was not interested in continuing to work with her. After meeting Kelly I knew she'd be a great fit!
During the process I worked with both Kelly and Allison, who were equally great about accommodating my work schedule and home preferences. Allison showed me several homes before we finally visited the one that I fell in love with. She was very responsive to all of my first-time-homebuyer questions throughout the closing process and helped me to feel really great about the home I bought. Everything went very smoothly and I absolutely love my house! I will definitely be recommending them to friends in the future!"
- Jen Higginbotham
"We really enjoyed working with Kelly Todd and Allison Steck. They were both very professional and respectful. We listed our house with them in October of 2009 and at the time the market was very tough. They gave us a lot of good advice on how best to present the house and what the asking price should be. After only three months on the market we received an offer. It was an offer that was reasonable considering the market conditions; however, it was much lower than our asking price. Kelly and Allison encouraged us to do our best with the counter offer. After much negotiation, we reached an acceptable price which suited both the buyer's and seller's side. This was the first house that my wife and I sold. We needed a lot of help understanding the details of the sale and Kelly and Allison made everything very clear. If we ever buy or sell a house in this area again, we will certainly want to work with Kelly and Allison."
- Ross & Carrie Cocklin
"If you want utmost professionalism with outstanding personal attention then you want Kelly Todd and Allison Steck as your realtors. We purchased an older home on a historic street in the Meridian-Kessler neighborhood and the process required more than the "average transaction". Kelly and Allison were always proactive and also extremely willing to do research and obtain information to help us with our decision; our satisfaction was their top priority.
Kelly and Allison made sure we were not just "buying a house". They went out of their way to ensure we were purchasing a home that our family would love and be happy in for a long time.
We would recommend Kelly and Allison to anyone in the housing market. Whether buying or selling they exemplify utmost professionalism with personal attention."
- Cherie & D.R. Foley
"The process of buying a home can be a daunting prospect, particularly
for a first time buyer. Given the overwhelming decisions with
an already demanding schedule, I decided to place my trust with the
Kelly Todd Group, predominantly in Allison Steck. I found that the
process was made smoother and many of my nerves were put to rest by
Allison's professionalism and client-centered approach. You can count on
her to be not only timely, but extremely resourceful, while placing your
needs first. The buying experience was transformed from a stressful
undertaking into an enjoyable venture thanks largely to Allison's
efforts. It was truly a pleasure and I'll look forward to working with
Kelly and Allison in the future."
- Derek DiSalvo
"Nicole and I couldn't be more happy with our new home, thanks to the superior effort and service from Allison and Kelly. With baby #2 on the way, our little two-bedroom home simply wouldn't do. Far too late in the game, and amid media reports sounding alarms about a housing crisis, we invited Allison over to explain what we needed and when we needed it. Allison convinced us we weren't crazy or expecting too much in too short of a time. And despite my ongoing skepticism, she was right. Allison had a very busy client load, and yet from our perspective we felt like her only priority. She was very patient and understanding, and her counsel was right on the money -- literally. We received a fair price for our modest first home, and a solid value for our much-roomier and newer place. And we got it all completed before baby #2 arrived. We couldn't have done it without Allison and Kelly. "
- Kyle and Nicole Proctor
"Fabulous is the only word to describe these ladies and the service they offer to their clients! Kelly and Allison are wonderful and were so great to work with. From our initial meeting, they took the time to really listen to what was important to us and gave us solid advice regarding the sale of our home. They were professional and timely in getting us information throughout the process and were a great sounding board when we had questions or needed information. They had a good working knowledge of the real estate market and were helpful on the buying side as well - they helped us find our dream home and we could not be happier with the job they did. We would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for real estate services that go above and beyond all expectations! "
- Deanna & Tom Boyce
"Being a first time homebuyer, I didn't know what to expect when I first started considering buying a home. Then I met Allison and she did a great job of laying out everything that I needed to know and showing me all of the options that were out there. Also, I was working with a short window of time and Allison was very flexible about meeting times and helped me meet my deadline. I appreciate all of the work Kelly & Allison did for me and I never imagined buying a home could be so easy."
- Matt Milligan
"Kelly and Allison were fabulous to work with in finding our new house. They were extremely patient with us at all times and made sure we were happy with our decision. Their knowledge of the current industry was very helpful especially when looking at all different types of houses within the market (ie: foreclosure, short sales, etc). Since we hope to be in this house for a long time, we will definitely tell all of our friends to use them."
- Julie Doyle
"As new homebuyers without much background knowledge in how the process works, we were a bit apprehensive about making such a big decision to purchase a home. Upon meeting with Kelly for the first time, our apprehensions quickly disappeared. She came to our first meeting with a wealth of knowledge which she also simplified in a binder for us to reference later if needed. She went through the process, step-by-step, ensuring that we were comfortable with what we were about to go through.
Once we started looking at houses, Kelly did a great job of playing the devils advocate. Because we were so new to the house search, it was easy to get wrapped up in minor details, such as a house with a nice kitchen. Kelly reminded us to look at the big picture: the neighbors, the block, the structure of the home. Things we quickly learned make a big difference in the home you choose to settle down in. She also pointed out positive aspects of homes that we might have overlooked had we looked on our own. We truly valued her opinion every step of the way. Once we found "the one", I assumed the paperwork aspect would be a nightmare. Again, Kelly made the process extremely simple.
The availability and quick follow-up was also a huge factor in making the process so easy on our end. Kelly was, and is, always quick to follow up with any questions we might have. We were never stuck waiting and worrying about anything. I felt comforted in knowing that everything was being taken care of. From start to finish, our home-buying process has been exceptionally smooth and pleasant."
- Lindsey Sparks
"Kelly and Allison made the daunting home sale, purchase and move process a delight. From day one, my wife Lisa and I were given realistic expectations on each factor surrounding our upcoming sale and move. It was a treat to receive honest and intelligent feedback throughout every step of the process. The Girls knowledge of the Indianapolis market, local neighborhoods, curb appeal, negotiating, and closing was more than we ever expected. I should also note they sold our house in 4 days for full asking price in one of the toughest housing markets ever. However, I’m sure this happens all the time."
- Scott & Lisa Kraege
"Kelly and Allison are the complete package! Their professionalism and knowledge helped us feel comfortable and confident when unforeseen obstacles occurred. We enjoyed each house hunting adventure and felt that Kelly and Allison were personally invested in making sure we found "the one". We absolutely love our new home and are so appreciative for the guidance and support that Kelly and Allison offered. We would highly recommend them to anyone, as they were everything we could have asked for and more!"
- Jake & Michelle Cagle
"We had the pleasure of working with Kelly to purchase our first home several years ago. Recently, we utilized her services again to sell the original property and purchase a new home. Kelly is one of the rare individuals with the combination of knowledge, work ethic, and personality that not only allows for informed decisions and expedient problem solving, but makes the process exciting and fun. The addition of Allison Steck adds another creative, intelligent professional to the team, making buying or selling a home even more convienient and tailored to the client’s needs. We heartily recommend and look forward to working with them in the future."
- Nate Lienhart & Angie Bidlack
"Kelly and Allison worked with us to buy our home in Carmel. The whole experience was wonderful from our first visit to Indianapolis, until we closed on our house over a year later! We were moving from Atlanta and we relied on them a great deal to help us figure out what location would be best for our family. They really took the time to help us get acquainted with the different areas while we were looking, and made sure we had all of the information that we needed to make our decision. We truly felt they had our best interests at heart and were a crucial part of our team that made it possible for us to move to the Indianapolis area! We couldn't be happier with our new home and would recommend them to anyone who needed an agent!"
- Melanie & David Wasilewski
"Kelly was an excellent asset in my search for a new home. As a first time homebuyer, I knew very little going in, and Kelly took the time to explain it all. She was quick to respond to any questions that I had and even came off maternity leave early to show me homes! Kelly had the foresight to look into some legal matters prior to putting an offer in on one condo which was beneficial in saving time and possibly money...as it turns out my financing was not compatible with that particular property.
When I did find a place, Kelly quickly scheduled and organized the inspection and the closing went incredibly smooth. Throughout the process I always felt as if I was her number one priority although in reality I know she was pulled in many different directions. Her professionalism is to be admired. I can't imagine having gone through the home buying process without her."
- Sarah Lucid
"My wife Stacey and I had a very pleasurable experience working with Kelly Todd and FC Tucker. Kelly had immediate response time throughout our sale and purchase process. She was always very honest and upfront with us in a respectful manner on all issues. Kelly comes with a lot of experience and very knowledgeable in real estate here in town. She is very good about provided a recommendation and allowing the customer to make the final decision on items. We feel very confident that the extras (marketing, advertising, experience, depth, etc.) that come with using Tucker helped sell our Broadripple home."
- Sean & Stacey Clauson
"We want to impart our gratitude for all the professionalism, effort, and
time you invested towards helping us find our first home. The process could have easily been overwhelming and confusing if it were not for the straight forward and detailed manner with which you handled everything. Your service basically covered every facet imaginable and you were always accessible for questions, flexible, and never pushy. You really do go "above and beyond" what we envisioned a realtor doing, so thanks again. You helped to make the entire house hunt less stressful and much more enjoyable."
- Joe & Sallie Parker
"Dear Kelly,
Thank you so very much for all your time, energy, preparation, information and patience as we went through our "house move & update" process! Thank you for all your insight, honesty and understanding. It was so helpful, so encouraging and affirming to go through that process as we make some big decisions. You truly are priceless! We so look forward to working with you in the near future and know that you will make the process so smooth (as smooth as selling a house can be!). We both learned so much from you and can't tell you how much we appreciate all of your work. Warmest wishes and many thanks for your gracious help!
"

"When my husband got a job offer in Nashville and was expected to start a.s.a.p., our main hesitation in leaving was the fear of a slow sell and being stuck with two house payments. Our fears were unfounded, as Kelly worked diligently to sell our home within our time constraints, and for a fair price. She even took care of everything at closing, so that we did not have to make the long drive back. Overall, Kelly ensured our selling experience was a success, and was truly a pleasure to work with."
- Lucie Wulliman
"My wife Kristine and I have just closed on the purchase of a townhouse located in Fishers, Indiana. Kelly Todd, Second Vice-President, Residential Division of the Talk To Tucker Reality Company was our Realtor. Kelly met with my wife and me, discussed our requirements and needs for the purchase of our new home. She spent time researching homes that met our requirements in the locations and price ranges that were acceptable to us. Kelly set up appointments for us to visit the homes we selected pointed out the positives as well as the negatives of the homes we viewed. Throughout this entire part of our purchase, she kept our requirements as her number one priority not the sale of a house or her commission check.
After viewing a number of possible purchases, some homes a number of times, my wife and I decided on a home and made an offer. Kelly negotiated fairly on our behalf and with her help we were able to place an offer that was accepted by the seller within twenty-four hours.
This may sound like the end of the story of Kelly’s involvement with our purchase but it is what she did for us after our offer was accepted that placed Kelly apart from other realtors I have dealt with. My wife and I reside in another state and were not familiar with businesses in the Indianapolis and Fishers area. Kelly gave us the name of a bank where we obtained our home loan, the name of an insurance agent that worked with us to insure our new purchase and found and supervised the home inspector that found a number of small but important issues that the current home owner needed to repair before we closed on our home. Kelly then followed up and inspected out home before our closing to be sure the repairs were made. Because of all of this behind the scenes effort by Kelly our closing was issue free, instead of the nightmare closings we have experienced in the past.
I would recommend Kelly Todd to anyone who is buying or selling a home. She is professional, dedicated, and committed to her client. She is organized, prompt and efficient. Kelly will insure that your needs will always come first as you make one of the most important decisions of your life. If you have any further questions about Kelly Todd I can be reached at 772-286-5925.

"Kelly is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about real estate. She spent countless hours helping us to find our perfect home and selling our previous home. We would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone in need of a realtor."
- Jeremy and Ann Bryan
"When my husband and I decided to purchase our first home, not only were we first time home buyers but we were also moving to Indiana from out of state. Kelly Todd made this transition easy for us, she ensured that we were comfortable not only with the home buying process but also with Indianapolis. Kelly took the time to explain every step of the process to us while going above and beyond to help us find a home that fit our current and future needs. Kelly helped us to make informed decisions while genuinely showing concern for our questions and apprehensions. We truly viewed Kelly as our partner in the home buying journey instead of just a realtor. As long as Kelly Todd is a realtor, we will use and recommend her for all home buying endeavors!" - Jennifer Hughes
"I moved to Indy from overseas with my company Lilly. I though that finding a house would be the worst nightmare, so I chose to rent till my colleague recommended Kelly after herself had bought a house, this is when I decided giving house hunting a chance in order to invest in equity rather than just wasting my money in rent. I had a very pleasant experience with Kelly as she was patient, she perfectly understood my requirements/taste and I was able to buy the Condo I was thinking about in less than a month, located in the middle of downtown with Indy Skyline view (that I requested from the beginning) and with a reasonable price."
- Samer Kassem
"My wife and I had very specific requirements as we searched for a new home. Kelly has a tremendous grasp of the Indianapolis real estate market and helped us narrow our search quickly. Ultimately, we were very pleased with the terms of the sale of our house and with Kelly’s help found the perfect home for our family. Kelly is organized, responsive, and has that intuitive "X-factor" to understanding the goals of her clients. Buyers and sellers would be lucky to secure her services." - Michael & Jen Browning
"Kelly Todd worked with my husband and I in the purchase of our first home. Buying your first home can be an intimidating and confusing process, but Kelly managed to make it as simple and easy as possible. She has a tremendous work ethic and is very dedicated to her clients, always keeping her clients' best interests in mind. Kelly's energetic and up-beat personality made it a joy to work with her. I have no hesitation in recommending Kelly Todd as your realtor."
- Sam & Holly Horton
"We would heartily recommend Kelly Todd as a real estate agent. When we were recently preparing to move from California, she contacted us there and helped us develop a search based on what we were looking for in a home. She then sent us updated lists of housing online that we could look though at our leisure. When we came to Indiana to really see the homes, we only had a day and a half to really make up our minds. Kelly had developed a targeted search and we saw a lot of homes that we really liked that first day. We ended up putting an offer in on one of them within a week and live there now.
Kelly was great with the basic agent services but she also went out of her way to do everything she could to make our search for a home and move successful. She made personal recommendations for services we needed and did research into schools for our kids. She even sat in the car with my sleeping infant son so we could look at a house and didn't have to wake him.
She has since helped my parents buy a house here in Indianapolis and they were very pleased with her as well. We would all certainly use her again if the need arose."
