David and Kelly both moved to Austin just after graduation. David came from Minnesota and Kelly from Indiana literally a decade apart.
They met at a waterski tournament in Frame Switch, Texas in August of 1990, where David was skiing and Kelly came with friends, It was love at first sight, destined to be together forever.
It was natural for both David and Kelly to be in the Real Estate industry, Davids father was an Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor, Owned Gas Stations, Single Family Homes, and Ranches in Minnesota, and Kellys father was Custom Builder and a wonderfully talented Craftsman.
With over 54 collective years of experience in the housing industry together they are The Thate Team. The Thate Team has earned a reputation for honesty, integrity, and professionalism, with the highest level of expertise and knowledge in the industry. David brings a wealth of knowledge as a Custom Builder, Land Developer, and Ranch Salesman, while Kelly thoroughly enjoys the residential side of real estate. Over the years Davids love for building homes has rubbed off on Kelly. She now is joining David in his love to design, build, remodel, and restore homes.
To date, David and Kelly Thate have lived in the Austin area for over 46 years and have been blessed with 5 children, and 7 grandchildren. David and Kelly both actively volunteer at their Church, as well as Volunteering with Agape Pregnancy Center, and Education Connection. They support the Jail To Job Ministry, Community First, and Parker Clay in Africa. Stop Child Sex Trafficking because GOD'S CHILDREN ARE NOT FOR SALE!
Kelly was feeling led by God to help Foster Care Children as she was in foster care as a small child in Indiana. She had no idea where to start or what she could do to make a difference in the Foster Care System. After researching The Foster Care System, she was in shock to find out that 19% of Foster Children are sold to Child Sex Traffickers. Well, now we all know why God had directed Kelly to The Foster Care System, to expose and stop this terrible event from happening.
Now, their ministry as of 2023 is helping Save Gods Children from Sex Trafficking. They are actively working with The Refuge Ranch here in Texas. They are helping support The Refuge Ranch which is providing a safe place that rescued children can call home. They meet all the children's medical, physical, and emotional needs. They have a full curriculum education available through high school. Best of all These children are introduced to Our Lord and Savior and so they have Love, Hope, Joy, and Learn to Trust again, Praise God!
Statistically, if these children do not get the help they need they will end up back in the trafficking world because they have nowhere else to go. WILL YOU PLEASE JOIN US in supporting The Refuge Ranch here in Texas?
SELL A HOME HELP SAVE A CHILD!
Every time you list your home or buy a home through David and Kelly Thate, they give a percentage of their commission to The Refuge Ranch to further Gods mission is saving His children.
This is what God has to say about His Children;
''But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea."
Matthew 18:6
