Jim Kantanka
REALTOR® MO&KS
Jim Kantanka is a Christ-centered real estate professional dedicated to serving people with integrity, excellence, and purpose. He believes real estate is more than a transaction—it’s a responsibility to guide clients through one of the most important decisions of their lives with clarity, confidence, and care.
A college graduate and active member of the U.S. Army, Jim brings discipline, reliability, and a strong work ethic to everything he does. Having lived on two continents, he offers a global perspective and an ability to connect easily with people from all walks of life. These experiences shape his calm, patient, and educational approach with clients—especially those navigating the process for the first time.
Jim is deeply committed to his community. He serves as a mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters, leads a small group, and actively contributes to several professional organizations, including the Young Professionals Network (YPN), YP Parkville, and the Professional Development Committee. Service is not something Jim turns on for work—it’s how he lives.
Outside of real estate, Jim stays active and energized. You’ll often find him at the gym, on the soccer field as a player or coach, playing pickleball, or in the kitchen cooking a great meal. His passion for leadership, mentorship, and personal growth carries into every client relationship.
Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, a military service member, or someone seeking a trusted advisor who will educate and advocate for you, Jim’s goal is simple: to serve with honesty, energy, and a genuine heart for people—every step of the way.
