About The Bailey Team
The Bailey Team - Bridget Bailey-Behrens, Barb Bailey, Kim Antonelli, MaryKathryn Malaney & Christie Ortwein
The Best in the Northshore!
The Bailey Team KNOWS the Northshore. We don't just know it, we live in it! The Bailey family roots go back to one of the first real estate transactions in Milwaukee when our ancestor, Antoine LeClaire, sold his fur trading cabin to Solomon Juneau.
While Barb Bailey isn't quite that old, she has lived on the Northshore her entire life. She and her husband, Tom Bailey, raised their 8 children in Whitefish Bay and Fox Point. They still call Whitefish Bay home when they're not enjoying life in the Florida sunshine.
Bridget Bailey Behrens currently lives in Whitefish Bay with her husband and their two sons.
Kim Antonelli and MaryKathryn Malaney live in Whitefish Bay while Christie Ortwein has settled in Fox Point. Obviously, we love the area!
Between us, we have over 50 years of combined experience and sales of $250 million. We are consistently among the top agents in the area. We offer complimentary staging, award winning customer service and the benefits of the top real estate company in the state.
So if you want to LIST your home call any agent...
If you want to SELL your home call The Bailey Team, and let us show you what we can do for you!
What clients are saying...
Bridget & Kim were a fantastic team that helped us buy a fantastic house! Kim was attentive, personable, and extremely helpful in managing the many, many documents that are needed to buy a home. Kim also went above & beyond by meeting us to tour homes in the couple times that Bridget was unavailable. As for Bridget, Real estate agent is not an adequate description of the many jobs that Bridget does, all of which she does exceptionally well. All in a day's work, she is a Professor of Structural Engineering, an interior design consultant, a market analyst, an expert negotiator, a life coach (only if needed) - and most of all, a sharp, trustworthy advisor with exceptional attention to detail. Headed into our first homebuying process, we knew next to nothing - but thanks to Bridget, we were able to buy a great house while learning an enormous amount from Bridget's expertise. We're so thankful for all of her hard work & would recommend her to anyone we know!
Working with the Bailey Team has been a wonderful experience. Bridget has been wonderful and so accommodating with setting up appointments whenever requested and on short notice. Her knowledge at pointing out the advantages and disadvantages of particular properties has been very helpful. Kim has been very helpful in explaining and walking me through the closing documents and Mary Katherine has been great with ideas for updating the property. It has been a pleasure working with them and I would highly recommend them.
The Bailey Team was exceptional in every way. They made the purchase of our new home AND the sale of our old home very easy.
We have bought and sold several homes and as a result when it came time to choose an agent for this transaction we did a lot of internet research. We found the Shorewest and Bailey Team websites easy to maneuver and informative. We then set up an interview with Bridget Bailey Behren. MK, the team's stager, also came. They gave an informative presentation and were very cordial. When asked why we should choose to work with them Bridget responded without hesitation, 'Because we care.' We chose them and are very glad we did. They continued to show us that they cared. We liked that they are a team and they worked well together as a single unit. We always felt that they were acting 100% as our sellers agent. They kept us well informed, were always prompt in responding to us, and worked with us on inspection issues that needed to be addressed. Bridget demonstrated an excellent ability to negotiate and Kim, the transaction person of the team, was very knowledgeable and helpful. We ended up with multiple viewings in 2 days and 4 offers above our asking price which was not a low ball price. The team continued to work to make sure the sale closed smoothly.
We had a great experience with Bridget and Kim! We had a buyer back out, but the Bailey team moved forward with a solid plan and strategy, and we sold shortly after. Their recommendations for improvements were great, and their staging was excellent, making the house stand out and look amazing. I would highly recommend them to anyone selling or buying a house. They are experts in Whitefish Bay and the North Shore area, with a magnitude of experience.
My experience with buying a house through Bridget and the Bailey team was superb. Bridget was so professional, friendly, available, and just overall amazing. I could write paragraphs lauding her but will summarize by saying I grew to trust her nearly instantly and was so appreciative of how she made me feel empowered and supported during a challenging time to buy.
This team is amazing!!! White clove treatment from start to finish. Selling a house can be a very stressful time, Bridget and her team were absolutely wonderful. After the pictures and video of the house were shared, I could not believe that I was looking at my house. Their staging expertise is off the charts. Nice job Shorewest, you hit a home run with this team! thank you, thank you, thank you
Phil & team were attentive, kind and communicative. They were on top of everything and helped me navigate getting my first home! I loved working with them and would definitely recommend to friends & family!
Phillip Bailey was our realtor for our first-time homebuyer's experience and I could not have been more pleased with our overall experience. Phillip helped us narrow our scope and figure out what type of home we really liked best, then was incredibly patient with us as we waited for the right home in the right location to hit the market. Over the months a few good candidates came on the market, and when it was time to put in our first offer, Phillip was agile, accurate, and effective in drafting the documentation and getting it over to us to sign. Though we lost a few of our initial bids, Phillip used the experiences as lessons learned for the future and helped educate us on the current market, which eventually led to us landing a property that will be a very good fit for us and our family going into the future. When we go to sell our house, or buy a new property, Phillip and the Bailey Team will be the first people we call.
Bridget was great!! Not only did she help us find a wonderful, but we also made a great friend in the process! Would (and have) recommend her to anyone looking for a home. She made what was a tough process given the current market a blast!
