We were looking for a piece of land to build a barn on for now, with the possibility of putting a house on it in the future. Kristen listened to us carefully and found us exactly what we wanted. Throughout the land purchasing process, Kristen was incredibly communicative and what she didn't know the answers to she found out and relayed the answers to us in a timely manner. Kristen and Carmen, her assistant, promptly answered calls, emails and texts, keeping us informed about every development. The closing was incredibly quick and painless. There were some confusing terms that we needed explanation on. Carmen contacted Kristen who was out of the country on vacation and Kristen handled it from there, calling us to explain everything. They are very dedicated to being the best and in our opinion you can't go wrong with Kristen Downing and her team!

I will never be able to express how much I appreciate Kristen in buying our home. She is one of the coolest people, she is extremely kind, she’s is so hard working and she’s is extremely knowledgeable about everything in buying a home. She’s went above and beyond for us as we were overseas looking for a home. I hope if I ever buy a home again I can call Kristen. I would 100% recommend her for all your realty needs. Her advice, her work ethic, her professionalism, her knowledge, her kindness only improve everything in the home buying process!

Kristen has been amazing!! She put so much time and effort to get us into a house we love! Even from thousands of miles away, Kristen and her team worked tirelessly to support our needs and ensure we have a home to move into with two dogs, a toddler, and another on the way. In a highly stressful situation, Kristen made everything so easy. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. We greatly appreciate her, and we highly recommend Kristen to anyone moving to the Jacksonville/Sneads Ferry area.
