Meet Kate Ward & Peter White
The local team behind NewHomesTC.com. Proud members of The McKinney Team at RE/MAX Gold — Florida's #1 top-selling RE/MAX brokerage and #9 worldwide.

A teacher, a home-watch owner, and a shared love of the Treasure Coast
Kate and Peter are fiancés, business partners, and lifelong residents of Florida's Treasure Coast. Together they bring an unusual combination to real estate — a former classroom teacher who breaks complex transactions into clear, simple steps, and a lifelong local who built a trusted home-watch and concierge business from the ground up.
The result is a team that is patient, precise, and genuinely connected to every community we serve. Whether you're relocating, downsizing, or buying your first new construction home, you'll have two experienced advocates working only for you.

REALTOR®, Florida Broker
Kate has called St. Lucie County home since 1986, when her family relocated from Wilmington, Delaware to Fort Pierce. Growing up in White City gave her deep local roots and an insider's perspective on the Treasure Coast market.
A graduate of Florida Atlantic University (B.A. in Education with ESOL & ESE endorsements), Kate spent years as a licensed teacher before earning her real estate license in 2018. She brings a teacher's heart and a strategist's mind to every transaction — breaking down complex contracts and timelines into clear, easy-to-follow steps. Since 2018 she has helped over 275 families buy or sell their homes, with more than $100 million in closed sales.
