Bud & Sara Cortner

Cortner Crew Cares . . . And It Shows!

Bud and Sara's Families are a Kansas Tradition and A Wichita Tradition for more than 80 years spanning 5 generations. This dynamic team has experienced every level of home ownership from relocating and moving up - to downsizing now that the children have grown.

Home in the Heart of Kansas is a personal journey that took them from childhood in central and southeastern Kansas, throughout the Midwest and right back to the center of it all-Wichita, Kansas. "It is wonderful to experience all the seasons of Kansas, from spring thunderstorms and glorious summer sunsets, to a cool fall breeze and crisp winter sunrise," remarks Sara.

Bud learned the dedication and hard work from his childhood as the eldest of 3 children in a doctor's family. A starting member of his high school basketball team, early in life he gained the discipline and importance of a winning attitude to get the job done.

Sara is the eldest of seven children born and raised on a dairy farm in southeast Kansas. She loves the outdoors and the old-fashioned personal service and energy of helping families sell their existing home or buying their next 'Home.' Both Bud and Sara understand the huge responsibility their clients entrust to them as they make that carefully calculated decision to move.

Calling the Wichita area "Home" was a purely logical choice for Bud & Sara. Being raised in the area, it is good to be close to family. It's easy to fall in love with Wichita. Community pride and spirit are abundant and they are right at home. "We can't imagine a better place to live, work and raise families," said Bud.
With 5 children and 13 grandchildren, Bud and Sara understand the importance of excellent schools, safe neighborhoods and a variety of family oriented activities the Wichita area offers. Whether it is taking the grandkids for a day at the zoo, enjoying the rich history and culture of local theatre, music and art, or landscaping and making improvements on their home, their shared enthusiasm for life and love for this community are always clear.

The Love for Wichita and surrounding communities drive Bud and Sara every day as a dedicated professional real estate team. Both enjoy the time spent with their church family and appreciate the values derived from that setting. They actively support a home for troubled children in the area, as well as church missions locally and worldwide.
