Kristen Adams, Realtor

I have loved Real Estate since I was very young. It could be because my family moved a lot (at least 14 times before I turned 18) so we were always house hunting and setting up house in a new location. I scoured the Real Estate circulars in the paper every Sunday and once searching went online I had EVERY app on my phone. During my 20's I would go to open houses and tour model homes, just for fun!  Even with such a deep interest in Real Estate, I didn't consider it as a career path until after college and working in Marketing for a few years. I discovered that corporate office life was not for me. I wanted more autonomy in my career and more live/work balance in my life. I really wanted to get into Real Estate at that time, but didn't have any personal connections or guidance. (And, frankly, I was intimidated by real estate agents. Ha!) The guidance I did have surrounding me was in Hairdressing (another thing I always dabbled in). I was dating a guy whose Mother, Sister, Grandmother, and Aunt were all Hairdressers. The joke was that I had to get my Cosmetology license for him to marry me (I did, and he did! We've been married for almost 20 years now).  I had a very successful Hairdressing career for 20 years. In that time, I had many Realtor clients. We would spend every appointment discussing Real Estate. I was encouraged by a few of them to get my license, so I did! I was licensed in February 2020, just before Covid, and it has been a wild ride ever since!

Our journey began over a year ago, working with Kristen, and it is still not over, but I felt that she is so deserving of this review. When my family and I decided we wanted to sell our home and buy a new one, Kristen has been there every step of the way. We have had some bumps in the road along the way, but Kristen has always had a solution and has been great at navigating what our alternative options could be. She is so thorough, has the highest integrity and is so empathetic to all of our questions and concerns about the process. She understands the significance of what it means to buy a new home and also to pack up your old one and get it ready for showing to sell. This process is definitely not for the faint of heart and Kristen will be there to hold your hand if need be. There has never been a detail missed. Kristen is such an amazing person and realtor to have on your side I would definitely recommend you connect with her for any real estate needs. You will not be disappointed!! She will be there through every aspect of the transaction, always having sincere care and concern for YOUR best interests. She goes out of her way for you with a great attitude and positive outlook. I do not give reviews but this one is so well deserved that I felt inclined to do so. We aren't done with our process yet but this journey has been so much easier having Kristen by our side.

Kristan did a wonderful job selling our Grass Valley house in a fairly difficult market. The pictures posted to the web made our house look amazing, and she did her best to make contact with realtors all over California to pull in interest from local and distant markets. We were able to sell the house quickly, with both seller and buyer walking away happy. Kristen kept us informed during the process, and we found her to be knowledgeable about the market, and sympathetic to our needs. We recommend Kristen highly.

Kristen was very responsive to every question I had, and was willing to go out of her way to make things happen. For instance, I initially came in with a cash offer, but then decided to change to financing (with 30% down) the house. Kristen quickly informed the sellers, who thankfully agreed to the change. She set me up with a local mortgage broker (Jon McIntosh), who was super helpful in getting it all pulled together quickly. In summary, we closed escrow on our beautiful home in 30 days, and we're very happy with the entire experience!

Kristen Adams is THE BEST! We just sold our home in Alta Sierra without a hitch! Kristen was on it from day one. She was thorough and patient. She explained everything and made sure we were updated on the process as it happened. I still can’t believe we got an offer within a week of listing, thanks to Kristen’s clear vision of the market. I can’t find words to express how much we appreciate Kristen’s expertise and engagement with the listing and selling our home. She made it easy and painless. Not a hiccup the whole time! Thanks Kristen!

Real estate agent 4 minutes ago Kristen Adams. A name you should get to know. My shopping for a home in the Grass Valley/Nevada City area began in 2021/2022 and was a very stressful experience until I met Kristen. She was THERE FOR ME. I'm sure I was a big pain at times, but she always had a smile, a word of encouragement, always had answers, always returned phone/text calls, always had the right advice, always took care of business on every level. She was and is my rock. I could not have accomplished this without her. I would highly recommend Kristen and her team at Wesley Properties for your real estate needs. I could go on forever, I cannot even begin to thank Kristen enough for all she has done, and continues to do for me. She goes beyond the extra mile, which in my opinion is rare these days. Kristen is the person you need to have in your life. Kind, considerate, professional, intelligent, creative. The BEST!
