About Krista

About
As a military wife I have moved my fair share. For us, that personally meant a lot of renting, buying and selling. We have rented out our homes and flipped a few. Foreclosures, short sales, VA loans, we have seen it all. I have a passion for real estate and have turned it into a successful career since January 2018. Let me be your guide with a comprehensive break down for the buying and selling process. When not on a showing tour I love spending time with my family at local events. We are always out in the community and eager to spread word about a neighboring towns social calendar. On particularly muddy days, we are most likely in the jeep either on our way or already at one of the many dog parks with our rescues. Call me for a free detailed CMA for your home to find out where your home stands in today's market. It's always a helpful tool whether you intend to sell now or in a few years. I do them seasonally for our own home to see which room could use a little update now and then.

Stephanie M. bought a home in Johnsburg

Krista is a fantastic realtor! She not only helped us a couple of years ago when we were looking for a rental house, she also kept in touch with us and helped us find our dream home this past summer! She went out of her way to make herself available to meet our crazy work schedules, was always quick to respond, took the time to walk us through our first home buying experience, and suggested great lender options as well without pressuring us to go with anyone in particular. She is also very kind and really pays attention to details. Krista was very patient with us and made sure we truly took our time to find our dream home. She even stayed with us all the way through the negotiations and closing processes to make sure we were comfortable with everything. Kristas knowledge and insight into the industry will surely help you have a pleasant home buying experience! If you are looking for a someone who has your best interests in mind and that you can trust, look no further! Thank you Krista

Heather S. sold a home in Round Lake

Krista was a dream to work with throughout the whole process of selling our home. We may have had one of the worst transactions trying to sell and she kept her cool and kept us on the path the whole way through. We never could have done this without her there to lean on and advise each step. She amazing and anybody would be lucky to have her on their side!

Caryn D. sold a home in Hainesville

(PART 1) I was considering trying to sell my moms house buy owner after she had passed away. I had many questions about the process since the last time I bought and sold a home it was 26 years ago. I called Krista and she could not have been more helpful. We had a wonderful conversation discussing my expectations for selling the home, to her experience in the area as well as in the Real Estate market. I really felt like I had just gotten off the phone with a friend when we ended our call. I was so pleased with her knowledge and her ability to explain the sale process from start to finish and believe me there is more involved than I even imagined that I called her back the next day

Caryn D. sold a home in Hainesville

(PART 2) after several other calls to different realtors who completely turned me off with their sales pitches and over zealous questioning. I know that this process can be a bit like a dealing with a car salesman but I personally want to feel someone Im dealing with cares about me and my situation and not just how much money they will make being my realtor. We met Krista the next day and it was such a smooth process. She gave suggestions but allowed the final decision on things be our choice. She has a fantastic knowledge about all the fine print on the contracts and forms including all the new verbiage regarding covid . We appreciated her patience in going line by line through each document so we would not have any surprises. She is well respected in the field and has lots of strong contacts with people in the community. We needed an electrician to fix some issues, she suggested a fantastic one we have hired back to do some work on our own home. She is and supportive.
