In late 1999 my wife Jennifer and I moved to Milwaukee so that she could attend UW Milwaukee. I had just finished a four year stint in the Marine Corps and had never been to Milwaukee. I felt right at home. Jennifer and I and our two daughters Hope & Sydney currently reside in Cedarburg Wi and have since 2002. I started investing in the Riverwest area of Milwaukee in 2003. Since that time I have developed a huge fondness for the neighborhood and its diverse group of residents.
I became a licensed Realtor in Spring of 2013 and it was by far one of the best decisions I have ever made. By Spring of 2014 I had obtained my Brokers license and Riverwest Realty Milwaukee was born. Since that time I have personally helped over 500 buyers and sellers achieve their goals of buying or selling their home. I continue to meet new people and make new friends every day in this business and for that reason, more than 50% of my business is repeat and referral. I could not be more thankful for that.
If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in the Greater Milwaukee area please give me a call. I would be happy to meet up for a cup of coffee, discuss the process and see if we are a fit!
We had a great experience selling our home with Lance. He offered one of the best commission rates we found on the market. He was highly knowledgeable about the market and provided us great comps for setting a fair asking price. He gave us solid advice on small improvements around the house to add extra value. We listed our house, had 10+ showings and had several offers in hand within 48 hours. He negotiated with the buyers effectively to increase our final sale price. He and his team were constantly quick to communicate and help out before listing, during, and after we had an accepted offer. He helped make closing a great experience. Overall we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would be happy to work with him again in the future!

It was a pleasure working with Lance and his team at Riverwest Realty, both times when buying and selling my house in the MF area. They were always friendly and professional, and willing to answer my questions at a moment’s notice. Thank you!

Lance was an exceptional realtor and made the process of buying my investment property seamless. He’s thorough, experienced, and always on top of every detail. Even when the seller was unresponsive, Lance stayed proactive and communicated effectively to keep things moving.
His open communication style is unmatched—he was always available to answer questions and walked me through every step with patience and clarity. Despite challenges from the lender, Lance helped me navigate all obstacles and fought to ensure my offer was competitive.
Even though I couldn’t attend the walkthrough in person, Lance’s virtual walkthrough was incredibly detailed, capturing everything I needed to know as if I were there. He never rushed our conversations and truly cared about my concerns.
Lance’s professionalism, expertise, and dedication made this experience stress-free, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. If you’re looking for a realtor who will advocate for you and deliver outstanding results, Lance is the one to call.

Working with Lance Wooten and Riverwest Realty was one of the best decisions we could have made. From the very first meeting, it felt like we were in super capable hands. Lance was amazingly responsive and prompt, and also super likeable and easy to work with. He also has a ton of experience and endless expertise when it comes to Milwaukee and the real estate market, along with truly great taste (clearly showcased by his office and AirBnB).
The combination of Lance’s savvy advice and being so on top of everything allowed us to get our first choice home despite the fact that it already had an all-cash full-price offer before we even saw it. He gave us priceless advice on making a timely and competitive offer, and was on and off the phone with the seller’s agent repeatedly to navigate the situation. The lead-up to closing became very messy due to a lender screw-up in the final week before closing, and Lance went above and beyond helping us deal with it and still close on time. We couldn’t have been luckier to have Lance as our agent, and we’re definitely coming back to Riverwest Realty any time if we want to sell or buy more property in Milwaukee.
