A licensed broker since 1994, Kristi Nelson brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her clients while representing their real estate needs of all price points and property types. Over the years, she has developed an in-depth knowledge base of market trends and the unique neighborhoods that are such a part of the Bainbridge Island landscape. She anticipates her clients’ needs and gracefully sees the whole process through from start to finish. After graduating from the University of North Texas with a Business and Marketing degree, she began selling residential real estate in the Dallas, Texas area before moving to Washington state in 1998. While living on Bainbridge Island, she became experienced in real estate construction, development, and design, and gained experience in the marketing and sale of new development properties. “I believe my background in construction and design allows me to show my clients the most cost-effective ways to improve their home for selling purposes or to be able to see a bigger picture of what they could do with a home they might be considering purchasing,” says Kristi. With her friendly, straightforward and caring approach, Kristi quickly builds trust with her clients while never losing sight of her goal to provide them the best service she can. And, as a mother of school-aged children, Kristi fully appreciates the extraordinary lifestyle and allure of Bainbridge Island and the Pacific Northwest. “When clients from other areas visit here, it’s fun watching them look around as if they have found a hidden treasure- because that is exactly how I felt when I moved here and I feel blessed to be able to raise my family here”. Whether searching for the perfect home, selling a property, or seeking an opportunity for investment, Kristi will make and treat every decision with the care and attention it deserves to make your experience as stress and trouble free as possible.

×We first met Kristi Nelson while shopping for our house in Port Ludlow. We were impressed that she worked tirelessly and seemed to be single-handedly bringing in new buyers and causing a recovery in the Port Ludlow housing market! After we bought our house and began to remodel, we respected Kristi so much we asked her advice on the design of our project. Four years later when we wanted to sell and relocate, we asked Kristi to be our realtor. Kristi doesn’t just list a home on MLS and wait for others to discover it and call. Rather she professionally stages the property and then advertises it to targeted audiences, providing weekly reports of interest and activity. Not only is Kristi amazingly knowledgeable, efficient, and proactive about all the details of the listing, showings, negotiations, paperwork, and closing, she also is a total delight to work with (you will just love her). After you hire Kristi and her staff, simply relax and follow her advice like we did, and she will quickly find the right buyer for your house!

×Working with Kristi was wonderful! She helped us figure out what we needed to do to get our home ready to put on the market, as well as offering resources of people whom could help us. She checked in with us often to see if there was anything she could do to help. Kristi had a wonderful marketing plan in place for our home. Our brokers open house was a success with 35 or more brokers seeing our home even before it hit the market! We put our home on the market during the winter holidays and sold our home within five days! Thank you, Kristi!
×My husband and I are so grateful to have discovered Kristi Nelson that it’s hard to put our emotions into words. She’s not just a superb realtor, knowledgeable in every aspect and minute details, but she’s quite simply one of the kindest, most caring, genuinely “good” human beings you’ll ever have the pleasure of knowing. She’s now shepherded us through several buy and sell transactions and we can’t recommend her strongly enough. We’d never consider a realtor other than Kristi. During the many years of her helping us through the enormous stress of buying, selling, moving, settling into new places, she’s also become a dear friend. I can cite so many wonderful examples of her help in so many ways. I’m happy to speak to anyone considering her as their advocate. You won’t be sorry.
×During what could be a very stressful transaction, Kristi was helpful and reassuring while selling my home in a difficult market. She then found the perfect home to transition into that met all of the asking criteria. I would recommend Kristi without hesitation.
