About Kristal

I'm Kristal Armstrong, a dedicated residential real estate professional with over 5 years of experience serving the Des Moines area and its surrounding communities. I graduated from Drake University with a degree in Journalism, specializing in Marketing, which I've successfully applied to my real estate career. Aside from my expertise in residential real estate sales, I also own a staging company, helping clients present their homes at their best before listing. This specialization sets me apart from other local real estate professionals. I pride myself on being there for my clients and doing whatever it takes to simplify the buying and selling process. I employ various marketing strategies, such as active social media engagement, networking with fellow agents, and hosting open houses to effectively market properties. To guide clients through the complex real estate journey, I offer a step-by-step guide that navigates them through each stage. As a member of Realty One Group, I stay updated on industry trends, market conditions, and real estate best practices through the company's continuous educational opportunities. I'm also actively engaged in my community, volunteering on many local advisory boards throughout my career.. My passion for real estate stems from my desire to assist others in a complex and intimidating field. I find joy in discovering the perfect property for my clients and helping them maximize profits when selling their homes. With my children now grown, I've redirected my energy toward advancing my real estate career.

a shining star Making what can be a stressful time a lot less stressful used her to buy and sell

Let’s face it… Having or needing or wanting to move, can be complex and stressful. Kristal has a unique and in-depth understanding of the process that allows you to breathe easy and count on her guidance… We used her to buy a new house and to sell our old house… She made lots of quality suggestions that allowed us to realize when we sold our house a end sale number a little higher than expected… As for buying a house, Kristal really listen to our needs wants and desires to help facilitate an outcome for our new home to be genuinely a perfect fit… Would absolutely recommend her whether you were buying or selling a house

Kristal goes above and beyond!! We wouldn’t use anyone else!

Well, she did it again! My husband and I have moved many times in the last 6 or so years, and I can’t emphasize enough how easy she makes the whole process. From helping stage the house, hiring landscaping/ cleaning services help to get ready for showings, getting things taken care of (literally) right away with lenders and contracts and all the things. If you’re looking for a realtor in Iowa, you absolutely 100% will be overjoyed that you chose Kris. Thank me later!

Literally the BEST!!!

Kristal helped me when purchasing my first home and now in selling that home and I cannot overstate how great she is! For a busy, real estate inept person like me, she made it so clear and easy! Best!

Hands down best realtor ever

My husband and I have moved every few years or so for his job. We have little ones and moving could’ve been a massive headache, but every single time, Kris has made our experience so smooth. She has taken care of even the smallest details without us even asking. She goes above and beyond in every aspect of finding the house, getting the old house ready, helping with staging, all the stressful paperwork, we just can’t thank her enough for her expertise, quick responses, and work ethic. If you’re looking for a realtor to make your life SUPER easy during a move, go with Kristal!!

She is a magician

Selling and buying a house was something I was dreading after my divorce. Kristal knew what I needed to motivate me to put things in motion. Her patience and knowledge combined made this expierence painless in moments that could of been hard. I believe that only a magician could of gotten me through the whole process with 4 kids and two dogs.
