THERESA BLOCHER INDUCTED INTO AUCTIONEER HALL OF FAME

3rd Generation Auctioneer Awarded at 2024 OAA Conference

Theresa Blocher was inducted into the Ohio Auctioneer’s Association (OAA) prestigious Hall of Fame during the 2024 OAA Annual Conference held January 12-13, in Columbus, Ohio.

A full-time auctioneer and realtor with KIKO Realtors, Auctioneers & Advisors since 1988, Blocher specializes in selling residential real estate, investment properties, and farms – all with the vision to help her clients reach their buying and selling goals.

“I had the opportunity a few years ago to have a great auction for a neighbor down the road,” Theresa said during her acceptance. “He was a really good businessman. I asked him for one piece of advice and he said, ‘surround yourself with the best people you can.’ So I went out and found my people. You’re my people. Thank you, Hall of Fame committee. This is a great honor.”

A third-generation member of the company, Blocher has a bachelor’s degree in Business from The Ohio State University and now holds a broker’s license. She served two terms on the Ohio Auctioneer Commission – serving as Chairwomen during her second term – which oversees requirements for courses of study in auctioneering and administers the oral auctioneers’ licensing exam.

Blocher is a lifetime member of the OAA, and a member of the Stark Trumbell Area Realtors, Minerva Area Chamber of Commerce, Canton Chamber of Commerce, Minerva YMCA (Board of Directors), and Countywide YMCA Board of Trustees.

Blocher initially started her career as a real estate agent and grew into the auction business by helping her father and uncles at KIKO real estate auctions. She donates her auction services to many non-profits – including the YMCA and 4-H Junior Fair – as well as mentors young agents getting into the auction industry.

Blocher and her husband Tim live in Stark County and have two daughters, Kathryn Blocher Palleschi (Nick) and Raychel Blocher.

Blocher’s grandfather Russell T. Kiko was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1986 and her father James R. Kiko was inducted in 2003. Also previously inducted from the company were Richard T. Kiko (1991), Lori Kiko (2013), and Russell T. Kiko Jr. (2020).

“Theresa has set herself apart as a full-service auctioneer and realtor who truly cares about her community and clients,” said CEO Dick Kiko, Jr. “She is very dedicated and uses her vast industry knowledge to be a trusted advisor and problem solver.”
