Kelly Knight

As a first-time homebuyers, we were a bit overwhelmed going into the process, feeling like there was so much we didn't know. Gabe and Kelly made our experience so much smoother than we ever expected - it was honestly seamless from start to finish. What impressed us most was how responsive they were. Every question we had got a quick, thorough answer. They were also incredibly proactive in their communication, getting ahead of things we didn't know to ask about. We never felt like we were being kept in the dark, and had clear direction the whole time. They clearly know this market inside and out — they helped us understand which neighborhoods / homes balanced our dream lifestyle and budget while giving us realistic expectations every step of the way. By the time we got to closing, we felt genuinely confident rather than stressed. That's a huge thing to say about buying a home (especially our first)! We'd recommend working with them without hesitation to anyone looking to buy in the area.

We have been through multiple real estate transactions over the past 20 years. Our experience with Kelly and Gabe far surpassed any of these prior transactions. Kelly is not only well versed in the diverse real estate market of Santa Barbara, but was also able to help us navigate a legal issue attached to our property. Both Kelly and Gabe were readily available through our entire process, from showing property to closing, and even helping us find contractors to help with our house. Given how busy everyone is these days it was refreshing and inspiring to deal with a team that was there for us every step of the way. Santa Barbara is a very competitive real estate market, watching how Kelly and her team navigated this, showed us that she and her team are operating at the highest level of this market. I cannot emphasize how truly happy we were and are with our experience with Kelly. Many thanks to both Kelly and her team.

Our transaction was beyond complicated and the knight team thoroughly thought through the process and guided us with intelligence and grace. There were many moving parts that needed to be addressed at many given moments that had to be handled quickly and with precision. The team was essential in guiding us to make the proper decisions.

Gabe and Kelly absolutely crushed it. The process of buying a new home is daunting and they served as extremely knowledgeable advisors to my fiancé and I in the process. They were so diligent in following up with the listing agent that the sellers accepted our offer even though it was not the highest bid on the table. They kept me informed throughout the entire process of what to expect and how to interpret inspection and title reports. They negotiated a price reduction after our inspections which made me feel really good about the purchase.

We chose Kelly because she had the best knowledge of the market in Mission Canyon. Selling a house is stressful and the professionalism of her entire team made us confident we’d made the right choice. Very happy to have worked with her, and we’d choose her again!

Kelly did an amazing job for my family and I. She was able convince the sellers that we were the right buyers, and made it possible for us to secure our forever home. Kelly worked with the home inspectors and was able to negotiate with the seller to save us thousands. Her knowledge of all aspects of the real estate industry was invaluable. Whether it was a mortgage company, or general contractor, she helped us find the right person for the job. She is a great communicator and well respected in the community. I highly recommend Kelly Knight
