Kristin was amazing! Her knowledge and expertise made the process of selling our home smooth and easy to understand. She was patient and always available to answer any questions.

Having worked with Kristin in the past I knew she would be the perfect person to help my wife and I find our dream home in Virginia . She spent days searching for just the right home for us and we could not be happier. Living out of state we really relied on her judgement and she exceeded our expectations. I'll never work with another realtor.

We were buyers, shopping in an arduous house market for our very first home. Enter, Kristen Willard. There are many agents who can sell you a house, Kristen will help to find you a home. A space that fits your needs, and your wants.
We were very selective in searching for our first home. Kristen worked with us, diligently exploring many houses. Together we tested every nook and cranny of available houses, looking for quality and imperfections. As she grew to know us better she helped narrow our choices down to houses that fit our energy, and was always ready to share thoughts on if a house was a good fit for us- or a bad one. She helped strategize contracts and even burned the midnight oil once or twice on quick turnaround bids.
Kristen is vibrant, passionate, and compassionate. While any realtor can sell you a house, Kristen will diligently find you that special place that becomes home. She certainly did for us. Thank you, Kristen!

Kristin was so patient with us as we tried to figure out what part of town we wanted to live in. When we found a home we liked and realized competition was high for it - she was quick at communicating with the listing agent to see what the status of the home was. She helped us navigate having to adjust our offer (twice!) and secured the home! We're excited for the home she helped us get, and are excited to work with Kristin again when the time is right!!

Kristin is a fantastic realtor to support you in selling your home! She took a lot of time learning about my home, my story, and my needs. We spent an afternoon discussing the timeline, and she thoroughly explained the entire process to me. Though always professional, Kristin also exudes warmth and care that goes beyond the home-selling transaction.
Due to delays in renovations, we had some hiccups with the timeline. She handled it so calmly that I never felt like I had any reason to panic. I felt like she was always on my side and had my best interests at the forefront. Within three days of listing, I had received four amazing offers!
Even after I accepted offers, Kristin continued to be readily available to answer questions, communicate about next steps, and help the closing process feel like a breeze.
You will not regret having Kristin on your team, whether you are buying or selling!

Kristin was excellent! We contacted her about a property and she showed it right away. She found answers to all our questions quickly. She negotiated our purchase offer very well. When we had some issues with the inspection, she resolved them smoothly and to our great satisfaction. She prepared us for the closing well ahead of time. The closing was timely and went very well. She worked with JJW Law on the closing and financials. They were also excellent.
Kristin is a very personable, encouraging, wise and helpful person. We highly recommend her!

🌟 Stellar Realtor Recommendation 🌟
If you are in the market to buy or sell a home, I highly recommend reaching out to Kristin Willard! I recently had the pleasure of working with her to sell my family home, and she went above and beyond every step of the way.
From the beginning, Kristin stayed true to her word, communicated clearly and promptly, and made what could have been a stressful time feel incredibly smooth and supported. She even offered to help clean out last-minute items if I needed the extra hand — who does that?! Kristin does!
She knows her stuff inside and out and is an incredible resource when navigating the real estate world. She listed my house on May 28th, had it under contract by May 30th, before she even had a chance to hold an open house! We officially closed on June 24th — it was fast, seamless, and truly an amazing experience.
Kristin Willard is the real deal — professional, trustworthy, dedicated, and genuinely invested in her clients’ success. You won’t regret working with her!
