CHELSEA STANYA
Contact - chelseastanya@gmail.com
"I was born in Columbus, Ohio, and at the age of 3 months I moved to Fairbanks, Alaska with my family. Like many families, we moved to Alaska with the military. My dad was Dentist in the US Air Force and after retiring, we stayed in Fairbanks and he opened his own practice. Having lived here in Fairbanks since I was only a couple months old, I have been able to see it grow and prosper into the city it is today. I graduated from Lathrop High School in 2001 and left for college at Northern Arizona University, then the University of Nevada, Reno where I studied Exercise Science. In 2008, while buying my first home, my Realtor, Traci Schachle and I hit it off and found that we were an amazing team. I quickly realized that Real Estate was the career for me and I have enjoyed every minute of it since I started. Since then, I have been a licensed agent and went on to receive my Associate Brokers’ License. When I’m not working, I enjoy any type of exercise, hiking with my partner Ron and our Frenchie Stella, being home with my cats, and just being around my friends and family."

Contact - leah.rist@kw.com; (907) 415-9064
"I'm originally from the great state of Rhode Island, but after joining the Air Force in 2003 I have had the privilege of living all over the world. While I was active duty I flew the KC-135, deployed multiple times to the Middle East, and ended my career instructing in the T-6 at pilot training . Although I am out of the AF now, my husband is still an active duty pilot and we have three young children.
When the Air Force brought us up to Eielson AFB, I learned that moving to Alaska is one of the most stressful relocations. There are so many unique challenges and concerns with living in such an extreme environment and you absolutely need a REALTOR® you can trust to guide you through such a huge decision. I understand all aspects of this crazy military life and you can trust me to go above and beyond to ensure you will be happy in your new home.

MIKE KNOCHE
Contact - mikeknoche@gmail.com; (907) 978-3344
"I have lived my entire adult life in Fairbanks, Alaska. I moved to Fairbanks, Alaska on a whim in 1995 to finish my undergrad degree and found myself captivated by the community. I bought land, I bought a book on how to build a house, I built a cabin, then a house and soon, I abandoned that degree driven career to be a full time builder and remodeler. In my free time, I adventure in Alaska and around the world.
Over the years, I have taken pride in working with clients, architects, and engineers to make their combined visions a reality. I’m known for problem solving and being a good communicator with my clients. My experience in the building community gives me a rare set of tools to evaluate existing homes and provide you with more value.
I offer to share that experience with real estate buyers and sellers in Fairbanks, North Pole, and the surrounding area. For the seller, I can prepare you for staging needs and help manage expectations for the inspection and appraisal phases that can often feel overwhelming. For the buyer, I can identify issues with homes and help prepare for inspections. Years of inspecting homes and gutting them for remodels have given me a great deal of insight into the Fairbanks and North Pole home inventory. I look forward to serving you!"
