Customer Reviews

We had previously listed our house with another agent for months with no offers.  We had an great offer within weeks of listing with Kristy.  She did an excellent job marketing our house.  Before we went on the market she had over 20 realtors come through our house and give us advice on what could   be changed.  We made some minor improvements based on Kristy's advice and I think that made a world of difference. 

Kristy Darragh and team are Best In Class!!! From the moment I placed my initial call and spoke with Kristy’s assistant, Jace, I knew I was in good hands as he meticulously captured all the pertinent information. The following day Kristy met me at my home with an arsenal of data analytics, clearly having done her homework prior to our meeting. Kristy and her entire team guided me throughout the process of selling my home while exceeding my expectations in every way. Kristy is not only knowledgeable and professional, she is caring and a real joy to work with. I already have her in mind when it comes time to sell my mom’s house and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

We recently purchased a home and had an excellent experience with Kristy. Her prompt response to the many questions during the process was so appreciated. Within a fews hours I was able to see the home and review the buying process. It wasn't just Kristy's obvious expertise, but her honesty and character that made our transaction easy and honestly fun!! Love her staff too! Jace and Toni!! Thank you so much!

Kristy Darragh and team are the consummate professionals. They take the realtor customer experience to another level. Kristy is sharp, sincere and extremely aware of market trends. She backs this up with great data and offers timely and a very well informed opinion which you can always trust. We have known and worked with Kristy for the last 10 + plus years and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell and wants a realtor who is smart and spot on with her advice that you can always trust.

I have bought and sold numerous properties in several states over the years and Kristy by far is the best overall agent I have worked with. I have used her to both sell and purchase a home. Her overview/synopsis of the market conditions in our area was top notch, she kept us updated during every  step in the process, and sold our home in a couple weeks for more money than we expected. Truly a pleasure to work with. I always recommend her to others.

I never write reviews but Kristy earned our 5 star review. From start to finish, we had the easiest home sale imaginable. She came prepared with extensive research for our first meeting and provided invaluable staging advice. She is at the top of her game … powerful, confident, a master  negotiator, knowledgeable and backed by a dedicated team that delivered services beyond anything that I had imagined. She is available 24/7 and can handle any issue that arises. She could teach a master class on real estate sales. We ended up with 8 offers in the first 5 days and sold our home in record time. We are overjoyed and cannot recommend her enough. Bravo !!

Kristy and her assistant were wonderful to do business with!  They were always quick to get back to us and answer any questions and more importantly they sold our home quickly and for a price that we wanted!  I would highly recommend Kristy for your real estate needs.

Kristy and team were highly professional, very responsive and pro active. Overall it was a great selling experience. Jace who assisted Kristy was fantastic to work with and always had a smile in his voice. Kristy is high energy, positive and knowledgeable, we felt confident there would not be any issues working with this team to sell our home.

Kristy sold our home last year and helped our son purchase his forst home this month.            Kristy and Steve both seem very caring and work diligently to make the process as smooth as possible.

We have worked with Kristy on our last 3 moves and all 3 homes sold in less than 1 day... She is truly amazing.  Her professionalism and expertise helped us ensure we had our house prepared to sell quickly and for the appropriate market value.  Her networking and knowledge of the surrounding areas,   was key to our obtaining a contract within one day.  We continue to recommend her to all of our friends!

Selecting Kristy as our Realtor was the best decision we made. Kristy sold our house in a record time for top price. She knows the area best, very professional and thorough. She walked us through the process and we had the best smooth selling experience. It was a pleasure working with her, Jace and Toni. They always were on top of the process and kept us updated in timely manner - we never had to follow-up with them. We highly recommend them - if you ever need a Realtor look no further than Kristy and her Team. Thank you Kristy, Jace and Toni for all your help - much appreciated. Vandana and Arvind Shelkar

Kristy exceeded our expectations in every way! From our first impression we knew that she was a consummate professional that we could trust.  Not only did she sell the house within a week, but the entire process was smooth from beginning to end.  In addition to Kristy, we worked closely with Brandy   and Amanda.  They were both wonderful! They held our hands throughout the process and were always available when we had a question or concern.  I would recommend Kristy to anyone interested in selling their home.  Realtors like Kristy are a rare find and we feel very lucky we found her!

Kristy Darragh is exceptional! Our experience with her was a huge success! We received multiple offers on the same day our home listed. We got more money for the house thanks to her expertise! Kristy Darragh is by far the best realtor we have ever dealt with. Kristy’s brilliance and her knowledgeable, professional team made the home selling process a breeze! Highly recommend!

Kristy is an extremely knowledgeable Realtor in the Tampa Palms area. She knows the neighborhoods and trends. She's on top of all sales and marketing techniques. She made time for us to go through the house and made hard but valuable suggestions to get us from thinking about selling, to staging, marketing, selling and SOLD! She know what prospective buyers are looking for and at and how to make that a sellers advantage. Her expertise and guidance were what we needed. And listening to her we went from stuff & clutter to open and welcoming and SOLD! I highly recommend Kristy Darragh.

Kristy is professional, knowledgable and always available when needed. She helped me short sell my home up against a foreclosure date after I had to find another agent due to a poor experience with the one I had. She listed the home for what the market was getting and I was able to sell in time. I   highly recommend Kristy and I wouldn't hesitate to recomment her to anyone.

Kristy was the seller's agent in our last transaction, and we were so impressed with her that we switched agents.  We were not disappointed.  Kristy's professionalism, responsiveness, and knowledge of the area are unmatched.  She gave us fantastic advice on what updates to do to our home to get it   show ready, and, most importantly, she sold our home quickly.  Her staff and contractor recommendations are also top notch.  If you are buying or selling anywhere in the New Tampa area, I highly recommend that you go with Kristy!

Kristy was a pleasure to work with.  She us very professional and knows the area well. She kept us in the loop through the entire process which was made more difficult due to foreign currency involvement. She had our best interests from the beginning. She set a fair price for our home and never once suggested that we lower it. We would highly recommend Kristy. She is our idea of a perfect realtor.

Kristy far exceeded our expectations. She is vey knowledgeable about the area and helped to guide us in a every aspect of the home buying process. She has an outstanding work ethic and responded to all of our questions and needs in a very timely manner. In addition, she took the time to get to know   us as clients and to make sure that our home buying experience was the best it could possibly be. She is professional, honest and was able to advise us in the negotiating process of home buying. We would highly recommend Kristy as an agent, and will definitely contact her again should we need to sell or buy a home. I am very grateful to the friends that recommended Kristy and feel that our experience could not have gone better!

Kristy's passion for what she does is incomparable.  She is not only an expert in all of the technical aspects of real estate selling and buying, but she also excels in the art of negotiation and communication.  These skills result from years of experience and natural-born ability.  It is rare to   find a professional who masters all aspects of such a complicated business.

This is the second home we've purchased with Kristy! She also sold our previous home. Kristy knows her stuff!! She is extremely knowledgeable of this market. Her Team is as impressive as she is. I would not hesitate to  recommend Kristy to anyone.

Kristy and her team can be summed up in one word--amazing.  From her initial appointment when she described what to value our home at to the day we closed, she made the selling of our house stress free.  Kristy marketed our home so well that we had a full-price and above full-price offer on the   very first day it appeared on the market.  Within three days we had a fully executed contract, selling the home as at a purchase price $9,000 over what we were asking.  Since the home was selling at a record price per square foot, Kristy showed her brilliance when she met with the appraiser.  Based on her extensive research, the appraisal came in a few hundred dollars over the contract price.  At every point of the transaction, Kristy and her team was responsive and supportive.  Kristy is undoubtedly the best realtor I have ever worked with and I would unconditionally recommend her to be your New Tampa realtor.

Kristy Darragh is a consummate professional with local higher market properties. Her accurate evaluations allow both buyer and seller to get a fair deal. She sold our property in 20 days and closed within a month. She accomplishes this with a network of industry professionals that deliver what they   promise. We highly recommend you receive a presentation from Kristy Darragh.

We first had the pleasure of working with Kristy on the sale of our home in 1999.            We have purchased and sold homes with her ever since. The most recent transaction was a sale of a home in Tampa Palms last month. Can’t ask for anything more from such a great agent.            She had 22 showings the day   after it listed and sold it in 48 hours for more then the asking price. This is the only agent you should use to purchase your home in the Tampa area. She gets the job done!

very efficient and timely, a good feeling with Mike and Kristy.I thought they kept me informed about the transaction and updated on a timely basis

Kristy and her team were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I contacted Kristy to get her opinion of what it would take to get our home market ready. She made time to meet with me even before we had officially started the process. She brought with her a very professionally done custom book which  contained comps for our community and details about my home that she and her team had gathered. Because of her expertise we had an offer in five days and closed in 25 days. If I had it to do over again I would call Kristy. She truly is in my opinion the best realtor in the New Tampa area. 

If you want to sell a home in New Tampa, Kristy is the right realtor.  We sold our home in 24 hours.  Kristy was extremely helpful leading up to our decision to list, and despite being a high volume producer she was always available for us and provided personal service.

Kristy was extremely professional and knowledgeable.  She advised us of the perfect price to list our house for to get a quick sale.  We received an offer on the first day for the full price and later sold it to the buyers.  Kristy also advised us of how much we could expect to walk away with after   the sale and was right on target!  I would highly recommend anyone selling their house to work with Kristy.  Best decision we made in a long time!

One day. She sold our home in ONE day! A good friend of ours highly recommended her services based on their past experience so we jumped on it. It was a blessing from start to finish. Kristy helped us understand the inner workings of real estate and how it's evaluated. Her moral compass is   unquestionably sound - important to us because we've known some who worked otherwise. An experienced strategist with a critical eye - she made valuable suggestions on how to best show our home. It's clear to us why she is rated the Top Realtor in Tampa. It was a joy to pay her the commission she earned. We just wish we could use her again in South Carolina.

Kristy and her associates went above and beyond knowing the specifics of our unique home. Their professionalism and outstanding service would be welcomed by any buyer and/or seller.

Kristy has helped us buy and sell both of our homes in New Tampa.  She provided very insightful information throughout the process and I would highly recommend her.

I am so grateful we trusted the sale of our home to Kristy. She did a phenomenal job of negotiating and securing the closing of our home. We had an offer the first day we listed. She sells a high volume of homes but was always available to us. I cannot recommend her enough.

I highly recommend Kristy. Selling my house felt like an enormous undertaking.  Kristy and her team helped me tie up loose ends I struggled to take care of on my own with my busy schedule. I felt I was not shouldering all of this on my own. I can't thank them enough. I felt Kristy's great reputation also helped make my home more attractive. Many details converged to make the sale of my home quick and painless. You can not put a price tag on that sort of peace of mind.  Thank you all!

She is an expert real estate professional that provides turn-key service ... on day one, she came with a complete market analysis for our neighborhood and surrounding area, provided solid insight on home sale  preparation and established selling price.

If you want to sell your home fast while demanding the value it's worth, better call Kristy!

Kristy originally found a builder to build our house for us when we first moved to Tampa six years ago. In January of this year she sold the same house when we moved because of a job change. She is extremely knowledgeable about the New Tampa area, great at negotiating, and easy to work with. She listened to our concerns, thought of creative ways to market our home, and was always available to answer our questions. She made closing easy since we were out of town and unable to be present. Her professionalism was evident each step of the way from listing our home through to closing. We highly recommend her and appreciate all the hard work she did.

Our house was a challenging one to sell due to the square footage and floorpan, but Kristy did her best to make sure our home was visible in all markets and marketing venues. She was easily reachable when needed and her associates were also very helpful. They held several open houses and someone  was present at each showing. Kristy knows the area and the market in New Tampa, I highly recommend her for your real-estate needs.

Kristy was Outstanding with the service she provided with the sale of our house. She guided us through the entire process and was very involved from our initial meeting and through the closing of the transaction. Our house sold in 1 day at a higher price than our original asking price. In fact, we had 3 offers within the first 24 hours of our listing. That fact should tell you everything you need to know about Kristi! Run, don't walk to list your house with her! Simply Fabulous!

Realtor Kristy Darragh did a phenomenal job listing our home. We had a pending contract in 4 days of placing our home on the market. Kristy’s energy is unique and her business acumen and professional aptitude and courtesy responding to our personal home buying needs was truly awesome. Thank you again Kristy for listing and closing on our home in 30 days!!

What more can I say, than that Kristy OWNS the high-end luxury home market in Tampa Palms. Just take a look at her website and listings to see that so many sellers place their trust in her with fine properties, especially since she is a local resident for many years.  From both the buyer's and seller's sides, she will strive to achieve the best results,speaking from experience!  Highly professional and analytical, she fully understands the local market, pricing, sales trends, how to sell,and how to buy. She will go the extra mile to make it happen. Always available to her clients, she is the consummate outstanding realtor at the top of her game!   Never have met such an impressive all-around talented realtor in my life.

Kristy Darragh is exceptional! Our experience with her was a huge success! We received multiple offers on the same day our home listed. We got more money for the house thanks to her expertise! Kristy Darragh is by far the best realtor we have ever dealt with. Kristy’s brilliance and her knowledgeable, professional team made the home selling process a breeze! Highly recommend!

Kristy was fantastic to deal with. I have bought and sold multiple properties and have never had such a positive experience. There were a few bumps but, Kristy handled them with ease. I would highly recommend Kristy and her staff.

We loved working with Kristy. She was very knowledgable about the area. Everything went very smoothly and in a timely manner. Would highly recommend Kristy if you are interested in selling your home.

My husband and I both found Kristy's masterful and professional real estate expertise to be above and beyond our last four home sales over the years.  We both work, travel, and had a very busy schedule in preparation for an overseas move but we had the luxury of having Kristy sell our house for us   during this busy time!  Even on a holiday she was available and working a contract.  She also had wonderful staff support which we found to be extremely helpful for streamlining this process!!  But regardless of her team's positive support we had no problems communicating with Kristy.  Kristy was energized, applied technology to streamline our process, actively listened to our interests then took action, took our small challenges that came up in the process and found a resolution quickly, and most of all is knowledgeable on all the various tools available in real estate.  She also had a great network of professional contacts that helped us get our home ready to sell.  For anyone in need of an aggressive, positive attitude, warm mannered professional real estate agent, I would recommend Kristy.

I cannot say enough good things about Kristy. This was my first time selling a home and she walked me through each process every step of the way. She provided realistic expectations from the start and thanks to her team's large network my home was under contract in no time. I was selling from out   of state and I had peace of mind knowing that if anything came up they were able to help get it taken care with no impact to my schedule.

Kristy and her team sold two houses for me this past year. They work well together , are readily available, and make the process tolerable. I’m grateful for Kristy’s marketing savvy and acute awareness of this hot housing market.

Kristy is a True Professional, very polished and knowledgeable about property and homes sales. Her team is a collaborative, wonderful group who really work with sellers to provide a great home for buyers. We highly recommend Kristy and her team.

Kristy Darragh and the entire team at Florida Executive Realty were the best.  They were extremely professional and hard working.  The communications was excellent and I was guided and kept posted every step of the way.  It took them only hours, not days or weeks, to sell my house.  I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Several years ago, my wife and I purchased a home from a seller that was represented by Kristy Darragh. We told ourselves that if we ever needed a realtor in the future Kristy would be the one. We recently sold and purchased a new home using Kristy and Megan Darragh...they exceeded our expectations on both ends of the transactions. They checked all the boxes: market knowledge, home presentation, generation of showings, terrific negotiation skills, and attention to detail and follow-up. They made us feel like we were their only client. Needless to say, any future moves on our part will include Kristy and Megan.

Kristy is the best. She had my house sold in 3 days after it had been listed with another realtor, for three months. Her team is the best. If you need your house sold her team is the one you want to use.

It was a breeze working with Kristy and her team!  Special call out to her assistant Brandy Meyer!  She was absolutely key to handling all the natural issues which came up. The two work as closely as I have ever seen!

We have sold & moved several times in our life and the process, procedures, communication, and overall stress level were all the same. The idea of selling our house of 18 years knowing the stress & obstacles we would face even with an agent was the biggest obstacle in our way from listing the house. Wife & I are both busy executives and selling our house in current times based off past experiences was something neither one of us had time or desire to do. We interviewed several agents, and all were wonderful, but it wasn't until we met with Kristy that we felt our best interest was at the forefront of the conversation. She was professional, honest, direct and gave us the confidence this is what she & her team does and have been for 35yrs. Truly the best decision we made. Kristy & her team from day one took the reins, and the process was organized, clean, stress-free that resulted with multiple offers within a week. You may not be as fortunate with selling your home as quickly as we did but if you're looking for a realtor with experience and a passionate team that has your best interest at heart. Then look no further. This is my first time writing a review and I'm doing so because Kristy & her team really impressed us. Class act and highly recommended.
