Welcome

 

A little about me, well... I was born in Orange County before our family made the big move to Oregon when I was 8 years old. I still remember the train ride up with my mom, sisters, and brother while dad and the movers drove up with the moving truck. We moved to a small town named Dallas (no, not Texas) and lived here in Oregon all through school and college. I went from a beach kid to a farm kid but wouldn’t change it for the world as I have so many wonderful memories of running around 21 acres with my cows and horses (too much fun). After college I worked for a national bank, a local cable company, and did some bartending and personal training until I started my Real Estate Career in 1995. Being the adventurous type that I am I decided to fly the coop and travel to other states (7 that is) to live and experience all they had to offer while working in different aspects of the real estate industry such as property management, timeshare sales, and 12 years selling new homes for builders in Dallas (yes, Texas) and Phoenix. Which brings me to today… After being gone for so many years I started to realize how much I missed my family and decided to move back home to be close to them again and did so in November 2014. I took a little time off to spend with family then went through the arduous training to obtain my Oregon Real Estate License (again). I wanted to work with whom I thought was the best Real Estate Agency in Salem and therefore decided to hang my license with HomeSmart Realty Group. I believe the most important qualities a person can have is honesty and integrity. If I don’t know something I will let you know and work with our HomeSmart team of experienced agents to find you the answer. I’m not afraid of hard work and don’t mind getting my hands dirty. I feel very fortunate to have had the experiences I have had in life and would like to extend my professional experience to you… my clients, customers, family, and friends!  KLC

Helped me buy home

A year ago, we met Kristin when she was employed with a very well known builder in Arizona. We are new to Arizona and we were house browsing, house shopping. We have been to a few builders in the area. Since Rancho Cabrillo was a bit of a drive for us, we decided to give it a look. Upon entering, we were greeted by Kristin and asked if we have any questions or concerns to direct them to her. We browsed the model homes. We were fascinated with a particular home. When we returned to Kristin, we did have several questions. She took the time to discuss options, pricing, other home selections/models the builder was providing, etc. When we were done with our meeting with Kristin, we drove off and discussed amongst each other for not even 5 min. We came back to Kristin to see if we pre-qualify. Sure enough, the ride was smooth from there. We bought our first home in AZ and we couldn't be happier. Kristin is what drove us to come back. Her personality, professionalism, friendly demeanor and expertise was what got us. We plan on keeping in touch with Kristin for a very long time and for any real estate advice and needs, if necessary. We highly recommend her and we praise her with such respect and gratitude. We appreciate her hard work and dedication to not only with her work, but with her clients as well.
