Kristy, you have been an INCREDIBLE human being through this whole process. I appreciate you deeply. I look forward to working with you on a future deal, but one that is streamlined and easy to go. You are one hell of an agent, and I am honored to know you.
Amanda Rupley
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.
Abe Nimeth, Business Buyer & Consulting Client
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
Kristy Thornton and her team ... provided a very professional and rewarding experience regarding the sale of our commercial building. They stayed in contact with us and communicated the progress of prospective buyers throughout the entire process.
Gregg Duggan, Seller/Landlord
I feel like the transaction and process was flawless, due to Kristy's positive attitude, work ethic, professionalism, and humility. Thank you, thank you for helping me move into my retirement with a comfortable nest egg.

After working with two other Business Brokers concerning the sale of my business, I was referred to Kristy Thornton and immediately knew she was the right person, to not only complete my sale, but the right person to guide me...
Betty Williams, Investor & Seller
Kristy was AWESOME!!! I learned so much that I didn’t know. I feel more prepared for the future.Awareness is a must. I will do things differently in the future taking what I have learned [from Kristy].
