About Kim Hawkes

I began my career in 2010 and quickly reached award-winning top producer status.  In 2020, I launched my own business: "OWN REAL ESTATE". 

As a FULL TIME Owner/Broker, I work with buyers, sellers and investors and assist them with every aspect of their move.  My goal is to make every step of the process as easy and worry-free as possible.  I have been exceptionally fortunate to be continuously referred by past clients.

I am a lifelong resident of Maine with extensive knowledge of Central Maine and the surrounding areas. 

I am an active community member having served on many volunteer boards and committees, including the Mid-Maine Chamber of Commerce and the Waterville Rotary Club.

I enjoy gardening, kayaking and travelling. I am passionate about my career with a positive CAN DO attitude.  When you love what you do, it hardly seems like work! 

If someone you know mentions a real estate need, please feel free to give them my contact info and rest assured that they will receive top quality service!

I believe having a home you truly love is one of the most important things in life. Home is where we create memories, build our lives, and feel most like ourselves—and finding the right one is a very personal journey.

With more than 10 years of experience in sales, I’ve developed a genuine passion for working with people and building strong relationships. I believe great communication, listening, and understanding what people truly need are at the heart of a successful real estate experience. I take the time to get to know my clients, understand their goals, and make sure they feel comfortable, informed, and confident every step of the way.

I’m naturally self-motivated and take pride in being someone who gets the job done. I’m proactive, persistent, and committed to following through for my clients. I’m also a problem-solver at heart. When challenges come up, I enjoy finding solutions, thinking outside the box, and doing whatever I can to keep things moving forward.

Most importantly, I want my clients to feel heard, supported, and confident in their decisions. My role is to provide guidance, honest insight, and support so my clients have the information they need to make the decision that feels right for them. Whether you’re looking to find a home you love or ready to sell your property, I’m here to guide you through the process. Buying or selling a home is a big decision, and I’d be honored to be the person you trust to help you through it.

With a long history of successful and fulfilling self-employment, I bring a wealth of expertise and an unwavering commitment to helping clients achieve their real estate goals. Known for my distinctive “get-the-job-done” attitude, I combine deep market knowledge, relentless diligence, and a dedication to exceptional service to deliver results that consistently exceed expectations.

Fluent in Portuguese and Spanish, I am proud to serve a diverse range of clients and ensure clear, confident communication every step of the way. My ability to connect across cultures is a vital part of my approach, allowing me to provide a seamless and personalized experience for all.

My entrepreneurial journey and personal resilience shape everything I do. As a mother, cancer survivor, and passionate advocate for expanded medical research and funding, I deeply understand the importance of home, stability, and community. These life experiences have strengthened my empathy and insight—making me uniquely equipped to help you and your family find the perfect property.

I leverage insider knowledge of local neighborhoods and surrounding areas to identify homes that not only meet, but exceed your expectations. Whether you’re purchasing your first home, upsizing for a growing family, expanding your investment portfolio, or seeking a serene retreat, I’ll be by your side, guiding you through every step of the process.

Outside of real estate, I treasure time with my family and dogs on beach walks, exploring the beauty of Maine, traveling, and staying actively involved in the community. I’m also an avid reader with a broad range of interests, which helps me connect with clients on a meaningful, personal level.

Let me put my professional expertise, personal experience, and multilingual capabilities to work for you. Together, we’ll turn your real estate dreams into reality..
