I started my journey in real estate in 2015. This career came about because of dreams my husband & I had way back in the early 2000’s. He was a carpenter & I wanted to do something with my hands. We decided that buying, flipping, & selling homes would be perfect for both of us. Between looking for homes to live in, buying & selling homes that we had renovated, & now building new homes, we haven’t looked back. As a Realtor ®, I do not look at this as my “job,” but as a chance for me to share my knowledge of buying & selling homes, work with people that start as clients & end as friends, & knowing that at the end of each day, I have done my very best to help someone achieve their dreams! My career is based on the Golden Rule: Treat others as you want to be treated. I promise to be honest, diligent, loyal, creative, & communicate quickly. Above all, your move is my focus.

Kayla Meis is a Realtor out of Boone, Iowa. She moved to Boone in 2018 and instantly fell in love with the small-town feel. Originally from the Twin Cities, the change of pace that Boone offered was refreshing.

Kayla grew up learning real estate from her dad, who sold and bought real estate in Minnesota for many years.

Through the years, Kayla’s work history has centered around customer service, such as a hostess at a fun pub on weekends and working at a school where she created a safe and fun environment for the children. These jobs helped her realize her sincere joy in helping others.

As an agent I am focused on making sure my clients are satisfied and their needs are met. I will do this by being honest, punctual, meticulous, and dedicated. I am set on keeping the process as simple as possible for my clients.
I specialize in the West Des Moines/ Urbandale area with parts of Waukee. I am also knowledgeable about the DSM area as well. I grew up in the Des Moines area watching my parents build a portfolio of investment properties. I’ve been through many dwellings and have seen many different realtors.
In 2019 My family began looking for a new house with a new realtor. She inspired me to pursue my real estate license. I aspire to be as available and just as hardworking as she was. In April 2020 instead of buying a new house my family bought Millers Hardware located in the drake area! I’ve spent the last year helping manage the store and learning the ropes. Around the the same time I began getting my real estate license.
I joined IHome Realty because I was certain they had the same drive to meet client needs as I do. When I’m not assisting my clients, I enjoy spending time with my three year old Shih Tzu named bailey. I enjoy time spent in/beside the water, Fishing, kayaking, boating, swimming, and paddle boarding with family and friends. I love spending time at my family lake house doing most of those things! While I enjoy spending my summer time by the water I also enjoy the cool breeze of fall and of course everything pumpkin! I’m excited to help you find your dream home and happy place!
