Well Kristy, we finally got this thing crossed the finish line, I want to thank you for all your help and your friendship. Vivica and I are sitting our favorite wine bar having a glass of wine contemplating wha tit is like to be unemployed.

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.

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...

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.

Kristy had such neat ideas…she presented things I would have never thought of! She is extremely good at her job. If I could have added anything it would have been…MORE TIME. I wanted to learn so much more from Kristy.

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.
