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] worked tirelessly providing more info and rebuttals to buyers on why their offer was too low. In less than a year we completed the sale of the day care within the asking price range. [She is] the first person I will call the next time...

I’ve used Kristy Thornton’s Texas Empire Properties for two transactions: one selling a Montessori school, and the other while buying a Montessori school. No matter which side of the transaction you are on, Kristy Thornton and Associates are fair, professional

Kristy Thornton is truly the most outstanding business broker in Dallas! I was recommended to her, and I couldn't be more grateful. I connected her with a friend exploring business opportunities ... and her expertise impressed us all.

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.
