Helped me buy home

Kristine assisted with the sale of my dad's home which was 60 miles from her home and office and you would have thought she was around the corner, in person and or on the phone. My dad is elderly and it was emotional journey after losing my mom, she was patient and informative with him on all the paperwork and the ins and outs of the sale. She was also a gem to me in assisting the handling of the "buyer" who was very impatient and required a lot of attention -- she saved me from this "buyer from you know where" The sale happened timely and efficiently with Kristine running the show!

Helped me buy and sell homes

We have used Kristine to buy and sell several houses. She is very knowledgeable in how to get your house ready to sell quickly as well as helping you find your next perfect home. Kristine has also been a great resource when needing a contractor, roofer, or custom work needed.

Helped me buy and sell homes

Kristin is the pro's pro. This is a agent you want on your side when it comes time to buy or sell a property. Very intuitive, understands the market very well and is always available to talk. She made the entire process easy to understand and to execute both the sale and purchase of our new home. I would not hesitate to recommend her. When you hire Kristine, not only are you hiring one of the hardest working brokers, but one that will deliver the results you are looking for.

Helped me buy home

Working with Kristine, as well as her daughter Amanda, was such an incredible experience! Not being from the area we were nervous and unsure about where exactly we wanted to live and even the exact type of home we were looking for. With a lifetime's experience living and selling properties in the Edmonds (and North Seattle) area Kristine was an invaluable resource to us as we navigated the complicated and fast-paced scene of the Seattle area housing market. We began working together in August of 2020, and all the way until we finally found our perfect home in March of 2021, Kristine and Amanda were always there to provide support and advice as we exhausted every possible outlet to find a home. We really appreciated and valued the time and understanding Kristine provided us during the pandemic as our lives and needs for a home changed. Originally looking for a smaller place with a great walkable location eventually evolved to needing more space to accommodate working from home and the changing needs of our lives. Despite the highly competitive and fast-paced nature of the Seattle housing market we had full confidence that Kristine would be able to help us put together an offer that would be not just competitive, but accepted. Even after our offer was accepted and we closed on our home Kristine has been an incredible resource to us as new homeowners as we navigate our new world of homeownership. Knowing that we have someone we can trust to continue to offer us advice as we look to remodel, update, and maintain our new home is invaluable. Kristine and Amanda have gone above and beyond all of our expectations and we are so thankful to have them as our realtors and now friends.

We recently moved to Washington from upstate New York, and were very happy to have the luck of meeting with Kristine. She was absolutely fantastic! Very informative, and extremely awesome at returning our calls. It was a wonderful experience, and I would recommend highly.

Listed and sold a home

Due to health issues I was required to sell my home of 27 years, as is, and in a short time frame. Kristine Hovde of Windermere Real Estate was able to find a buyer under these conditions at an excellent price. Kristine was a real asset under the condition I found myself.

Listed and sold a home

Kristine Hovde sold our home quickly and for more than we could have hoped for! She was professional in dealing with us, potential sellers, financial contacts and all the other people that came into the scene. We wanted to sell our rental home and knew that it needed some work to get it to the best possible shape to attract a buyer. She knew just what to suggest we do to improve the look of the home. She went out of her way to provide all the information we needed, being new sellers. Our first experience selling a home was a great experience, because of Kristine. She was knowledgeable in all the details of the home selling process and was open and completely honest from start to end. We could not have had a better negotiator; she masterfully guided the right buyer to us. We recommend Kristine Hovde to anyone wising to succeed in selling or buying a home or any real estate.

Helped me buy and sell homes

Kristine helped us buy our new house and sell our old one so we have had a front seat to her expertise on both ends. On the purchase side, Kristine helped us navigate our offer through all of the other offers to get the house we wanted and to put our offer in the best light at the right time. Her experience helped us greatly as this turned out to be more complicated than we imagined. Selling our home was far from a breeze and Kristine's experience not only kept us calm but ensured that we ultimately sold our home and closed in a timely fashion. Her knowledge of the Edmonds market and network of experts saved us on multiple occasions and I can't think of doing this type of transaction with anyone else.

Helped me buy home

We had a really positive experience working with Kristine and Amanda this fall as first time home buyers! They were very responsive, happy to answer our (many) questions, and knowledgable of the market we were looking in. Their family's experience in construction also helped them spot things we alone would never have noticed, all the way up to talking us out of two houses we were enamored with... telling us 'you can do better.' They even came with a first rate network we've already tapped into for upgrades and repairs. At the end of the day, despite the difficulties of 2020, we got a great house, navigated the home buying process with minimal stress and actually had fun with it all. Highly recommended!
