Tina Lewis – Founder | Broker/Owner

Tina founded Home Team Real Estate Group with the goal of creating a real estate experience where clients feel supported, informed, and confident throughout the entire process. Tina began her career in property management in 2003, gaining extensive experience overseeing residential communities, working closely with homeowners and investors, and managing large property portfolios.

In 2015, Tina expanded into real estate sales, bringing with her a strong operational background and deep understanding of property ownership, investment properties, and the local real estate market. Her experience managing more than 300 residential units throughout her career provides valuable insight that benefits both buyers and sellers today.

Tina works with home buyers, home sellers, and real estate investors throughout the Milwaukee area and Southeast Wisconsin, helping clients navigate everything from first-time home purchases to investment properties and multi-family opportunities.

One of the qualities clients appreciate most about working with Tina is her honesty and straightforward approach. She believes in giving clients the information they need to make the best decisions — even when it may not always be what they want to hear. Her goal is always to protect her clients’ interests and help them achieve the best possible outcome when buying or selling real estate.

Many of Tina’s clients come to her during major life transitions — whether it’s purchasing a first home, downsizing, investing in real estate, or helping families navigate the sale of a loved one’s property. She takes pride in being a trusted resource families can lean on during important and sometimes difficult transitions.
