We came into the home buying market without ANY knowledge and felt nervous about the whole process! Kristen Palmer is a friendly, knowledgeable, patient, genuine and AMAZING agent. As we started the process of looking for a home, she took the time to help explain how the process works, get us pre-qualified (with a Mortgage Lender) to understand what we can afford, discuss the reality of the current market and what our expectations should be when looking at houses. As we were touring homes, she helped give us the details of the neighborhood based on what was in the listing and also provide us the comp prices of the surrounding homes to give us an idea of what the home will sell for. As we started our first bid on a home, she helped us create an offer that was the winning bid! As we moved through the different stages in the process of closing on our first home we had a few moments of stress and panic, Kristen was there listening to us in our panic and was amazing in providing support based on the insight of real estate industry and experiences. She is wonderful real estate agent and we highly recommend her to anyone wanting to purchase a home! We will use her again and again if we decide to purchase another home!

I highly recommend Kristen! She helped my family sell our parents’ home in San Rafael. She was instrumental in every aspect of selling the home that we owned for 55 years. She organized and met all the workers who got the house ready to sell. She was very communicative with every step. She listened to what we were willing to do and what we weren’t willing to do. Her suggestions and attention she gave us was very appreciative. With all the preparations and follow through on Kristen’s part, we were able to sell the house in 5 days. Kristen helped with all the paperwork before and after the sale. Again, I highly recommend her for all of your real estate needs!

After my wife and I tried to buy a home in the Bay Area for over a year, we decided to change our realtor to Kristen. We ended up getting our first offer with her accepted! Kristen was very helpful in putting together our strongest offer and was very responsive before and after the close of escrow. We would definitely recommend her and would definitely work with her again in the future.

Kristen is absolutely amazing! My wife and I were total noobs visiting open houses casually when we met Kristen at a house she was showing. Within a couple months we purchased a house we absolutely loved in Novato. But it didn't just end there! She referred us to contractors, to lenders when we were ready to refinance, anything we needed she was always a text away with the information. I really can't even quantify how much help Kristen gave us. When an opportunity at work took us away from Marin we called Kristen, who helped us make some last minute updates and sell our house super quickly for a great price. I think back to when we were renters and how far we've come since knowing Kristen and it's really astonishing. She's been so much more than a realtor to us, she's a dear friend! Highly recommend!
