In 1972, Gene Kroeger, founded the initial Real Estate Company that evolved into Lepic-Kroeger, REALTORS. The guiding philosophy of the new company was Excellence, Service to Customers and Community Involvement. A continuous commitment to growth and quality service has propelled it to a leadership position in residential and commercial real estate.

Creating a company dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for Iowa Citians was Gene Kroeger's vision. Many of the finest residential neighborhoods and adjoining shopping developments are products of his endeavors.

In 1982, Tom Lepic, became a partner and continued to help to build a higher quality, and productive residential, commercial, land developments real estate brokerage company. A growing and vibrant company soon joined forces with Kevin Hanick in 1983 and Ernie Galer in 1985. In 1984 Kay joined Lepic-Kroeger Realtors and in 2004 became an owner of the company.

Lepic-Kroeger has seen a lot of growth in the Iowa City area, since it started in the real estate business 34 years ago. We have made great strides from our office building on Washington Street with 2 agents and 1 full-time support staff, to Dubuque Street with 14 agents. Bursting at the seams we moved to our current location at 2346 Mormon Trek Blvd. We now have 38 full-time agents, 18 licensed assistants and 6-full time support staff in order to serve you with all your real estate needs.

If you thought 2006 was a busy and productive year in real estate sales, you were right! For LEPIC-KROEGER, REALTORS®, it was The Best Year Ever.

Think about it. LEPIC-KROEGER, REALTORS®, is “ Iowa City 's Largest and Oldest Locally Owned Independent Real Estate Company.” Iowa City MLS (Multiple Listing Service) had 1.09 billion dollars in sales and of that LKR was involved in 340.06 million dollars or 30.65% of the sales in 2007 – more than the next three leading companies combined.

While in some areas of the United States are seeing declines the Iowa City/Coralville Market is STRONG. 2007 was expected to be strong for real estate sales in the Iowa City/Coralville Area and it was. The success of LKR, depends as always on our people. “Our sales professionals and our support and management staff are the heart and soul of this company,” says co-founder Tom Lepic. “We have seen a lot of growth in the Iowa City area, since we started in the real estate business 36 years ago, and LKR is very proud to be a part of it.”
