Kristin is awesome. I was flip-flopping for a while about whether I was going to buy or rent, but she was very patient (and also persistent in following up). She didn't pressure me, but gave me the option of meeting up with her to look at some houses, and within three visits I had not only decided to buy but zeroed in on the house that I wanted. She showed me a number of houses that were in line with what I had asked for, and also threw in a few extras that she thought might be a good fit -- and lo and behold, one of them was perfect, even though I wouldn't have known to ask for it on my own. Once I made the decision, we had a very short turnaround time to get the offer in, but Kristin helped me beat out several other offers and was very responsive throughout the entire process. She also had to be quite flexible with me, as I was traveling a lot at the time, and she made sure that I was aware of all the paperwork that was needed and ran interference for me several times with the lender around the timing of various steps of the loan application process. The seller turned out to be quite a handful, and Kristin was tough in negotiations with her and her agent when necessary to keep things moving forward. She's also just a pleasure to spend time with, and I feel like I gained a new neighborhood friend in this whole house-buying venture. Definitely A++
