Specializing in real-estate since 2004, I provide high level service to my real-estate clients; buyers and sellers alike. Born and raised in Petaluma, I came to Marin County in 2002 and started my career with Frank Howard Allen Realtors. Working alongside one of the most successful agents in Marin County, I became a sponge and mastered the art of market analysis, negotiating through the transaction process, and real-estate marketing while building strong relationships with different agents, lenders, contractors, and other professionals throughout the Bay Area, and specifically in Marin – Sonoma Counties these relationships have benefited my friends and clients.
"Kristen was GREAT!!! After owning our home for 16 years my family decided it was time to upgrade! Needless to say, it was a very emotional experience. We had to sell and then buy within a short period of time. Kristen was experienced and knowledgeable on both transactions. She worked us through every step along the way. I was impressed how she did her research on our town and showed our house to the best of its ability. On the buying end, great negotiation skills!!!! She was able to get our new home under the asking price with a few little extras...awesome!!! Highly recommend Kristen Palmer for all your realtor needs!!!"
"I recently closed an escrow transaction in which I acted as seller for a Trust. The property had been vacant for 2 years at the time of sale. Kristen walked into the property and immediately identified for me the areas that needed fixed, repaired, replaced, cleaned, painted, and added to for sale; as well as yard cleanup. As soon as we entered into an listing agreement, she contacted her team and they began the process. Kristen and her team were right there; quick, efficient, professional and awesome. Kristen knows her properties, the market, other realtors, other listings in the area and and has an uncanny feeling for what the market will bear. She was a joy to work with and basically effortless for me, as I was an out of state seller, as well as being an advocate for me. Without her I sincerely doubt the property would have sold as quickly or at the price it did. I wholeheartedly recommend her. I speak from experience in that my profession for the last 43 years has been as a Senior Escrow Officer. Please contact her!"
