    Kristen was an absolute pleasure to work with on purchasing my new home. She was extremely communicative, very timely, and made herself always available for my questions. She would send gentle reminders if I needed to be on the lookout for next steps in the closing process. You can often work with realtors that try to push their “expertise” on your decision making, especially in the Austin market. This is completely opposite of how Kristen does business. She could tell immediately if I were hesitant about a house and would be candid in saying you don’t love it so on to the next! Kristen has integrity and character, and I enjoyed the entire process of working with her.

    Kristen McKelvie knocked it out of the park with me. As a first time home buyer, I wasn’t sure what I was getting into purchasing in this type of market. Kristen knew upfront I was not only an apprehensive buyer given the competition in Austin, but I prefaced I can be a difficult client to work with in general. Numerous times my emotions got the best of me, and Kristen took everything in stride.Kristen was great at educating me on what it would take to get an offer accepted in this market. At first I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, but that was because I didn’t want to believe what I was hearing. But everything she said was accurate. You need someone knowledgeable and realistic in this market to get your offer accepted. Kristen was no frills and put me in my place when I was being unrealistic.We experienced numerous “out of the norm” experiences throughout my house buying process, many of those being due to this market just being crazy. In these weird scenarios, if Kristen did not know the answer to something, she would work immediately to find the answer. There was never a gap in communication, as Kristen was always prompt at answering questions or investigating any weird situations that might arise.Kristen was extremely creative in finding properties for me. The MLS had minimal properties available for sale, and a lot of properties weren’t even listed on the MLS. Kristen comes from a very tech savvy background and used that to her advantage to find me properties that others couldn’t. In addition, she has a great network of realtors to find off market listings.Kristen ended up finding me an off-market new construction home just a month out from completion. I couldn’t believe no one else had located the property yet. Kristen found it when no one else could, resulting in zero competition. I’m still honestly shocked that in the end, I got the perfect home for me without a bidding war. Kristen was even present through all builder walk throughs, including a very meticulous blue tape walk through. As an engineer with perfectionism, Kristen took notice of that and matched my attention to detail in the blue tape walk through and final walk through.Throughout the buying process, Kristen would give me tidbits of information along the way that I really appreciated - even down to her sending me links to add the trash service dates to my calendar. After closing on a home, the process/relationship with Kristen doesn’t stop there. She continued checking in on me often to see how things were going and continued educating me on first year homeownership.A year after closing, I received a lovely hardcover book from Kristen with all similar houses sold around me over the last year. It’s such a nice keepsake to see how the market continues evolving over the years.If you’re nervous about jumping into the buying market but also know now is the time, don’t hesitate to contact Kristen. If you’re looking to sell, I’ve heard Kristen really thrives in this area as well. She’s a professional photographer, has staging contacts, and is very experienced in her pricing strategies. Although I don’t have a property to sell, I would consider using her selling services in the future.

    I reached out to Kristen when I was in a need to find a new place and I wanted to do it quickly. In todays competitive housing market in Austin, this wasnt such a small feet. Throughout the entire time she blew me away with her professionalism, communication, and work ethic. The rare time she didnt have an answer for something, she quickly saught it out. We saw over 10 properties until I found the right one. What I love about Kristen is that she invests highly in her own personal development (shes even a certified NLP trainer!) so shes an excellent communicator, and she also helps you with your mindset throughout the entire process, as it can be stressful or nerve wracking at times. Kristen puts 100% effort into her work and I will be recommending her to everyone I know for all their housing needs. 😃 Thank you Kristen for all your help and I cant wait to send you even more clients!

    Kristen is very good at what she does. I wanted to look at some rentals on fairly short notice for an upcoming move. Once we were connected she promptly set up some tours of the properties. She came prepared with the details I needed to know to make an informed decision and she was a great thought partner as well. Once she understood what was important to me she also recommend some properties that were not on my radar and I actually ended up selecting one of her suggestions! I came away very impressed with Kristens professionalism, knowledge and positivity. My rental search was definitely enhanced leveraging her services. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a Realtor to add value to their rental leasing and/or home buying or selling needs.

    Kristen is just the best. She made the process of buying our home insanely easy to understand. Every step was incredibly well outlined and anytime something was needing (like issues from the inspection) she already had someone lined up to handle it.We couldnt ask for more shes the best.

    Kristen did a phenomenal job helping put together a competitive offer! I was able to buy my dream home after only searching a few weeks and with my first offer. She provided insights into the area and what other homes recently sold for. She helped me understand the home buying process as a first time home buyer. She also helped me negotiate a new roof! I would recommend her to everyone I know.
