“Working with Kristy was WON. DER. FUL. We listed with her to sell our home of almost 20 years. This was a very large home, so the mere thought of moving was a bit much at times. But it was time to downsize and move on. Kristy was always available to answer questions and offer suggestions. I needed hand holding through some of it, and she was always there. Once we got the home mostly cleared out, she staged it beautifully, and the pictures her photographer took looked amazing! I would give her six stars if I could.”

“Kristy not only guided me through EVERY step of the buying process, but also helped me list my current home and sell it at close to my asking price. She started working with me in the early summer, checked in with me periodically until I was ready to buy/sell, and communicated with me promptly. I feel fortunate to have found her on my first try and highly recommend her for your home buying or selling needs!”

“I doubt we would have been successful in our internet search for a home in the fast moving and highly competitive Seattle area market without Kristy LaVigne’s excellent communication skills, familiarity with the neighborhoods and experience as a realtor. We rapidly grew confident in her professionalism. With her assistance, we were able to clarify just what it was we were looking for, identify neighborhoods of interest and target a home best suited to our wants and needs. Her experience and advice enabled us to bid successfully and within our comfort zone. We are very happy with our new home and believe we have Kristy to thank for it.”
