Finally I have a commercial/business agent that I can refer my friends/clients to, with complete confidence. Thank you Kristy for doing an outstanding job and making me look good in the eyes of my client!

We would highly recommend Kristy Thornton for ANY of your real-estate needs. Her background, knowledge and skill sets helped us to navigate the challenges of selling our business. Kristy is one that goes the extra mile...
Steve & Regina Faber, Business Owners
Kristy was a ray of hope that came to us at just the right time. With Kristy's guidance, we were able to make some needed changes so that our business would be much more marketable, and she was able to complete the sale at a higher than expected price.

Kristy was a pleasure to work with. She is very professional and clearly develops rapport with her clients. She knows what she is doing and was instrumental in getting all parties to closing on the purchase of an investment property.
Nathan Tune, Commercial Agent
My company has been saved by the most incredible lady in the business. I really couldn’t have done this a tenth as well without Kristy, and I owe her big. I could go on and on about how much she has changed my company and me as an owner.
