Ward Schraeder is a jack of all trades. Work has always been a part of his life. From building his own home to starting and building up a variety of businesses including medical management, banking, farming, construction, and even a winery, Schraeder has become a successful entrepreneur with a Midwest work ethic.

In the last 20 years, Ward has developed his many interests into flourishing companies across the Midwest.

Schraeder enjoys time with family, being outdoors, and working with his hands. These hobbies have grown into many side businesses, the most recent being his appearance on the DIY Network show “Bargain Mansions” with his daughter Tamara Day. He spends his time outdoors working on his ranch, which spans several thousand acres in western Kansas.
