When we decided to relocate to South Dakota, we won the lottery when we found Kaye on the Internet. Sending us a listing of a home we loved, we bought it sight unseen. I asked her to treat the purchase as if she were buying a home for herself. Her real estate skills are impeccable. She is helpful, honest, articulate and accurate. She answers any questions you may have with lightning speed. There is a bonus. Her husband Scott is also a REALTOR. When she could not be in two places at one time he stepped in to help. After moving to Yankton she still answers any questions we may have. This is the best real estate experience we have ever had! - November of 2021
We would HIGHLY recommend Kaye O'NEAL (Shore to Shore Realty). She and her husband (also a realtor) had our lake home property listed and sold within 36 hrs. They both go above and beyond! So professional and thorough when working with both the seller and buyer. You cannot go wrong with Shore to Shore Realty, they are amazing!!
Kaye was a dream to work with. From the moment we reached out about properties in the area, she helped us navigate the process. We were out of town buyers and she was gracious and helpful. She was able to set up 5-7 showings on a single day to ensure we got to see all the properties we were interested in while in town. Once we selected a few properties of interest, she quickly got us all the information on the property that was relevant to our needs. She also pulled covenant, information and plat maps where available. She would pick up the phone and call whoever she needed to in order to get us the information we asked for on a property. Not a lot of realtors do that these days. Once we selected a property, she followed us all the way, with very timely updates on every detail of the process including inspections, appraisal, signing and more. She even helped us after the sale to find documents we needed for previous work done on the home and where to find specific service providers for fencing and more. She was an amazing realtor through a difficult move across several states and we couldn't appreciate her more!
Kaye and Scott were amazing! Kaye made the whole process as stress-free as possible even with listing my house within just one week. There were no unpleasant surprises as she was so well-prepared for each step. I never doubted that I was in good hands, and the end result proved it!
Due to its inhospitable location, Kaye had to take an all-terrain vehicle to inspect our property. She happily did so, and I believe, if necessary, she'd have parachuted in. This is to say that Kaye is an unstoppable juggernaut of realty. Even with our property's rugged location, obscure boundary lines, and niche market appeal, she relentlessly researched the site, made contacts, filed paperwork faster than ink can dry, and had our property sold with far less time and trouble than we thought possible. In fact, because this wasn't the first time we've tried to sell, we doubted it could be done at all. But after our first meeting with Kaye, we felt that if anyone can do it, it'd be Kaye. And we were right.
I could not be more grateful to Kaye for her careful and expert handling of a complicated sale of a Tyndall property after a family member passed away unexpectedly. I live several states away and was not on hand except for a few days at the very beginning. The home needed significant work to get it ready for sale as well as attention after listing it. Kaye and her husband Scott carefully and willingly managed all of the repair work, and were always flexible, available, and present at the property whenever necessary. In particular, Kaye was meticulous and comprehensive in monitoring and facilitating the progress of the work, as well as every aspect of the listing and sale process right through closing. Kaye's skill, professionalism and willingness to do whatever it takes is unmatched in my experience of buying and selling a number of personal properties. And she was furthermore an absolute pleasure to deal with through some difficult challenges. Due to Kaye's expertise and skill, we had several viable offers within just a few days of listing the property, and closed on the property is minimal time for a price above what the estate had hoped for. My heartfelt thanks go to Kaye and Scott for all they did during a difficult time & situation for the family.

Kaye and Scott O'Neal are dedicated, highly professional and very knowledgeable about real estate. After 32 years of living in our house they made the experience of selling our house as easy as it could be. They made recommendations for improvements that potential buyers are looking for in a house, helped us with finding a carpenter to do those small "fixer upper" items that make such a difference and kept in close contact with scheduling home showings. They readily shared information from the home showings with us to keep us updated. They continually did their homework regarding comparable houses for sale, investigating property tax rates, utility costs, covenants and have very realistic expectations for selling a home. They are friendly, easy to talk to, easy to work with and took care of everything to lessen our workload so that we could continue on with our daily work and business commitments. We now not only have a good business relationship with them, but can also call them our good friends. It was all good! Shore to Shore Realty rocks!!
We couldn't be happier with how Kaye helped us get into our dream home! She was very helpful, informative, punctual, and caring to our needs. She always answered our questions and explained things we didn't understand. I would hands down refer the O'Neal's to friends, family, and anyone else!
Kaye was a true professional throughout the entire process of selling our home. She was very thorough and took care of items that we hadn’t thought of or didn’t know were needed. She gave plenty of notice an was extremely accommodating with showings. The virtual tours was amazing to have created.

Kaye was so helpful in helping us find ground to build a new business. She updated us when there was anything going on with rules and regulations with the city/county. She is a very knowledgeable realtor and we would definitely use her in the future if need be! We highly recommend Kaye at Shore to Shore Realty!
I chose Kaye for my Realtor because when I called her to look at a house in Crofton, she was considerate towards my disability, not being able to drive myself there. Thank you Kaye, for your sweet personality and all the time you spent with me and the extras that you had done because of my disability. I knew I picked the right Realtor when my home sold as fast as it did. Even tho’ it was sad to leave my home in Yankton, you made it easy!
Kaye was amazing as she helped us find and buy our first home! She was very diligent and made the process so easy on our end- which was much appreciated since we lived 3.5 hours away at the time. We had a terrific experience. Highly recommend!
We are more than pleased by the work Kaye did for us in our purchase of property at Lewis and Clark Lake. When what we thought would be a simple purchase turned complicated, she walked beside us each step of the way. She went over and above to keep us informed and up-to-date and to make the necessary contacts to keep the process moving forward. Since we live several hours away, we were especially grateful to know she was always on hand to meet with the local service providers when we could not. We highly recommend Kaye’s services to anyone interested in buying or selling real estate in the area.
Kaye was excellent to work with. No pressure to buy a certain home and really tried to find what you wanted. We were on a short turn-around time table and she was right on top of everything. Very knowledgeable and thoughtful in her processes.
Kaye did an outstanding job for Jennifer and I! We would recommend her if you are buying or selling a house. She's very attentive and does a great job with keeping the buyer/seller updated. Thanks, Kaye!
Shore to Shore Realty helped us find our first home and the home we have always wanted! Kaye was very helpful throughout the home searching/buying process and made herself available to us at a moment's notice. Kaye is friendly and knowledgeable and never pushy. We would recommend Kaye and Shore to Shore Realty to anyone looking for a home in the Yankton area!
We found our dream retirement house thanks to Kaye O'Neal! We loved looking at her portal of cabins/homes. She was always on top of the available market. She was honest, loyal and she and her husband, Scott, became friends of ours. She made buying a house an exciting adventure and fun!
Looking for your dream home or lake property in the Yankton Area around Lewis and Clark Lake? Kaye O'Neal can help you just like she helped us. We started looking at properties on the Nebraska side and then moved over to the South Dakota side where we found the property we ultimately purchased. Kaye spent time with us understanding what we were looking for. Plus walking around on the lots and checking into setbacks and covenants for building as well as water and power services and connection fees. Kaye worked hard on behalf of the Seller and the Buyer to find common ground to make the deal happen. We recommend that you let Kaye go to work for you to find your dream lake property.
Kaye and Scott made our search for vacation property in the Yankton area a very pleasant experience. Kaye afforded us time and lots of options to consider before we finally put together the right combination of our needs and available property. We were never pushed toward settling for something that fell short of our expectations. Kaye was very knowledgeable about the market and the properties we explored. We developed a high level of trust in her advice and her insights about the Yankton area housing market. We will certainly suggest Kaye to anyone who we know is looking for Yankton area property!
We recently purchased a property in the Lewis and Clark Lake area with Shore to Shore Realty. The complexity of the purchase was handled very professionally by Kaye and Scott, they kept us and all the other parties in constant communication as the process toward closing continued, they went above and beyond what they needed to do so that the details were all complete at closing time. We appreciate the professionalism, knowledge and experience that they exhibited and by gaining our confidence and trust in them. We greatly enjoyed working with Scott and Kaye and above all we can call them Friends. We highly recommend the Shore to Shore Realty team for all your Real Estate needs.
The "O'Neal Connection" is all you need to know when it comes to buying & selling real estate along the "Historic" Missouri National Recreational River & Lewis & Clark Lake of northeast Nebraska & southeast South Dakota. Anybody can sell real estate in the large urban centers & the resort areas located on the coasts of this great country. It takes talent, fortitude, a friendly modest personality & know-with-all to sell within a limited market area. That's Kaye O'Neal & her team at Shore to Shore Realty. They will tackle anything you give them; from a very small recreational cottage to that very large unique acreage with professionalism and humility. They deliver! Having a career in the architectural engineering field for some 40 years, having worked with small & large high end residential developers, agents & brokers plus a multitude of architects & engineers designing & creating projects of all sizes and shapes; I have an eye for the person who can make it happen and get it done. Whether it's taking pictures of your property on a cold & blustery winter morning for their website, or meeting with you late at night, plus in my case working with out-of-state family members to close a sale; not to mention the weekend property showings (the life-blood) of any good REALTOR - that's Kaye and her team! We have, we are and we will continue to use "The O'Neal Connection" for our real estate needs.
Kaye and Scott helped my 92 year old mother sell our cabin after owning it for over 30 years. They were absolutely amazing! We ran into some legalities that would have sent less seasoned realtors running for the hills. Kaye and Scott handled all the details from our first meeting until our celebration closing lunch - they are professional, kind, competent and have great communication skills. Everything you want in a realtor.
I live in Sioux Falls and when people ask if I know a good realtor I tell them yes - but they live in Crofton! Thanks for all your time, energy and compassion.
Kaye did a wonderful job handling the purchase of my house in Hideaway. Kaye scheduled my appointments with inspectors, plumbers and electricians during the buying process. At the time I found the cabin in Hideaway, I had a buyer secured for my property, Kaye was always willing to answer any questions when it came to my home sale. I would strongly recommend Kaye and Shore to Shore Realty to anyone.
Two months ago today we closed on our new home in Yankton, after living here for 4 years! Our journey which began in January (with another realtor), filled with frustration and disappointment, ended as quickly as it started. While out driving a few days later we came across a property we wanted to look at. In less than an hour, Kaye was there! We lost count of how many homes she showed to us over the next few days. The last home we looked at......was the one. In less than a week our offer was accepted. From start to finish (actual closing) was a little over 3 weeks! Kaye did not give up on us! We had very high expectations of what we were looking for, what we were comfortable spending, and benchmarks which had to satisfy a VA loan. Always with a smile on her face, extensive knowledge, quick turnaround on documents and information, Kaye walked us through each and every step! Work with Shore to Shore Realty LLC......you will NOT be disappointed!
We have recently sold property in the Lewis & Clark Lake area and also purchased property about a year ago and both times we worked with Kaye O'Neal. Kaye is very informed about the area properties and advertised our property regularly. Also, she always kept us up to date on any developments, concerns, interests, while the property was listed. Kaye was very pleasant to work with and we would highly recommend Kaye and Shore to Shore Realty to anyone interested in buying or selling lake property.
When we were recently looking for our home away from home, Kaye was so helpful and quick to respond to our questions and needs during the process. Kaye has an understanding for her clients that make her stand out from the many Real Estate Agents in the area. Buying a home is a stressful process, buying a second home is as just as or even more overwhelming, we cannot begin to tell you how much we appreciate the number of hours you spent with us...keeping us totally informed every step of the way.
Thank you so much for your help in selling our Lewis & Clark Lake property this year. As a long distance owner, it was important to us to work with someone we could trust and who would be able to handle the realty transaction professionally and expediently in our absence. You worked well as our representative and guided us through the sales process. I especially appreciated your ability to use electronic media to complete the legal documents from afar. You have been our hands in Nebraska and we have appreciated both your maintenance and realty services.
Shore to Shore Realty was wonderful to work with! Kaye was always prompt in her responses to our questions and needs. She helped us navigate the rules of Nebraska real estate and went above and beyond by assisting us with things we couldn't be there to take care of. The process of purchasing a vacation home was definitely easier because of Kaye's involvement.
Kaye is absolutely fabulous to work with, she went above & beyond what a realtor would normally do! I listed my lake home with her & as a out of the area seller I never had to be concerned about the house, she always made sure things were ok & kept me updated on it. The property has been sold of course ( thanks again to Kaye) but if you're listing or wanting to buy Kaye O’Neal if definitely the one to use!
Kaye was incredible to work with. She went above and beyond to help us sell our lake property. She kept in contact throughout the process as we were not in Yankton. Her detailed communication let us know who and when people were in the property, which made us feel more comfortable with the showings. The 3-D video walk through sealed the deal. It let the weekend cabin hunters see the property before even coming to look to make sure they were serious potential buyers. We would highly recommend the Kaye and Shore to Shore Realty.
