Kristin was a phenomenal buyer's agent. Out of the 3 Realtors I've used over my life, she was by far the best. We had just moved across the country for my job, and knew nothing of the area. Kristin was extremely knowledgeable not only about the cities we were looking at (20 min drive around Redlands, CA), but also the individual neighborhoods. We ended up with a phenomenal home that I love every day. I think back to when we were looking (ahead of the spring peak), and were starting to get a bit house crazy and considering houses that pale in comparison to our current home. Kristin was firm in reminding us of the goals we had originally discussed with her, and worked to encourage us not to compromise. I'm grateful for the fact she looked out for us with this, and not just getting a commission quickly. Next, I appreciated she let us be part of the search process. She would of course send us recommendations, and even sometimes listings before they hit market, but she would also patiently answer questions about listings we sent to her (and there were many). Would this be a fair review if I didn't mention all of the stipulations we put in place? I don't think so, because we were really kind of a picky family, but Kristin didn't even blink. She accepted the conditions, and kept ALL of them in mind as she searched for us. She was so patient with us. Our conditions were: no houses built before 1981, at least 1,500 sq ft, at least 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, at least a 2 car garage, under a price cap, no houses with yards where the neighbors were right there looking into your yard, no HOA, but in a nice neighborhood. A couple final points. Kristin was super accessible, any time of day, even on weekends. With houses getting under contract in about a day or two, she was agile and responsive, even when we had to bite the bullet and text or call her in the evenings. Lastly, she was a pro when it came to negotiations, and really got us into a great position with our sellers, saving us $. We'll be purchasing another home in a couple years to move my in-laws out here, and we aren't even going to hesitate to use Kristin again.
