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.
"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!"
"We offered "KP" the ultimate challenge, sell a 50 year old house with maintenance and "style" challenges! We felt confident turning the sale over to her even though we live 2 states away! Her recommendations for overcoming these for buyer appeal were spot on. After a little painting cleaning and staging, the before and after pictures were stunning! And the increase in sales price wasn't bad either! "KP" handled each step like a general contractor getting people to get stuff done. Getting estimates and commitments. All "KP"s suggestions paid of for both the seller and buyer. The home sold in just a few weeks. Offers in just days! Her professionalism and attention to detail in every aspect were excellent."
