Kristen made our dream of living in Lake Wildwood a reality. She knew every street, every HOA nuance, and every listing before it hit Zillow. We toured six homes and were under contract on our perfect lakefront property within two weeks. Her knowledge of the gated community rules and the marina amenities was invaluable — we never felt like we were navigating this alone.

I was nervous about selling my home in a shifting market, but Kristen's pricing strategy was spot-on. She staged it beautifully, had professional photos done, and we had multiple offers in the first weekend. We closed $18,000 over asking. Her communication throughout the process was exceptional — I always knew exactly where we stood.

Sold a home

Grass Valley, CA

We relocated from the Bay Area and had no idea where to start in Nevada County. Kristen spent two full days driving us through Grass Valley, Nevada City, and Penn Valley, explaining the differences in each community, school districts, commute times to Sacramento, and fire insurance considerations. Her patience and local knowledge were unmatched. We found our forever home in Nevada City.

Nevada City, CA

Kristen sold my Alta Sierra home during what everyone said was a slow season. She didn't just list it — she marketed it aggressively online, held targeted open houses, and connected with buyers relocating from the Bay Area. Her RE/MAX network brought in qualified buyers we never would have reached otherwise. Smooth transaction from start to close.

Sold a home

Alta Sierra, Grass Valley, CA

As first-time buyers, we had a million questions and Kristen answered every single one with patience and clarity. She connected us with a great local lender, walked us through the inspection process, explained what to look for with well and septic systems on rural properties, and negotiated repairs after the inspection. We felt completely supported the entire time.

First-time home purchase

Grass Valley, CA

Kristen handled both the sale of our Penn Valley home and the purchase of our Lake Wildwood property simultaneously. Coordinating two transactions at once sounds stressful, but she made it seamless. Her deep familiarity with the Lake Wildwood community — the HOA, the amenities, the lifestyle — gave us total confidence we were making the right move.

Simultaneous sale and purchase, seamless coordination with no gap in housing
