ZillowVERIFIEDKris was on top of all the details from the moment we took an interest in purchasing the property. Her communication was excellent. Her knowledge of the market and the relevant comps was key in achieving a quick and successful negotiation. Kris was ready to answer or quickly ascertain an answer to all of our questions. We had a very smooth purchase process at every step of the way, and I would be delighted to work with Kris again. I highly recommend her as a knowledgeable and capable realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe started with Kris more than 10 years ago and have used her for a number of buying and selling transactions. She is an incredibly hard working agent yet she always makes time for anything we need. She goes above and beyond for every transaction we've had with her and is always on top of every tiny detail necessary to make buying or selling go smoothly. We've used a number of agents in other states and none hold a candle to Kris. We recommend her her wholeheartedly and would not consider anyone else to help us on either side of a property transaction in the Vail Valley.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe just completed our fifth transaction with Kris! I cant imagine anyone better at all phases of a real estate transaction, whether buying or selling. She brings it all for her clients.. expert market knowledge, responsiveness, clear communication + advice (which is always spot on!) and has many contacts in the valley for maintenance and inspection list items. She is professional but also stands firm when her clients best interests are at stake. We are Kris clients for life, and once you work with her, I'm sure you will be, too!

ZillowVERIFIEDKris is amazing! Rarely do I find a professional in any field that knows her subject matter (the local real estate market) and cares for her clients so well. It is her persistence and determination that make her above the rest. My wife and I had practically given up finding even an adequate new home but Kris found the perfect place. She is also well supported by a mortgage agent, Cris Nelson @ Rate, who was always willing to work the numbers for us. They are an incredible team that I highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDKris was our agent when we bought our home in the Vail Valley, and many years later, she helped us sell that same home. Her deep local knowledge, strong relationships with other agents, and responsiveness were invaluable, especially during these challenging times. She consistently followed up with interested buyers, guided us in rejecting unreasonable offers, and advised us on how to negotiate effectively with serious buyers. Kris was a true pleasure to work with, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.

ZillowVERIFIEDKris did a great job advertising my listing and negotiating when things got tough with the seller inspection objections. Kris has the knowledge and skill to close your deal. She also has lots of great referrals for handyman, movers, etc.

Review for Member: Kris Bruce
ZillowVERIFIEDKris went above and beyond for us. Her negotiation skills, communication, service and work ethic are all top notch. After more than 7 months on the market with another agent, we switched to Kris . She immediately set to work bringing in trades to do a refresh of our listing, got us back on the market very quickly, and within days brought us multiple offers at full price. Kris value also shone through as she confidently set expectations with buyers agents and negotiated our desired terms. She was an immense help at getting us through inspection, enlisting trades to get repairs done and always making herself available to do what was needed, as I was out of the country for much of this process. Simply out, Kris did an outstanding job. She is a pleasure to work with and a rockstar agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDKris was outstanding in her efforts to assist us in selling one property and purchasing another. Both transactions had issues that needed to be resolved and Kris was instrumental in getting them resolved. The one word I would use to describe Kris is tenacious. Both deals probably would not have been consummated without Kris' efforts to get them done. We can not recommend Kris highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDKris Bruce is the perfect, steadying personality, for the ups and downs in the world of real estate. Kris negotiated strongly on price, oversaw and kept track of all of the inspections, followed up with all of the contractors, organized photos and cleanings, and generally kept everything moving forward. We had a long escrow, and she was reassuring throughout. I would absolutely work with Kris again.

ZillowVERIFIEDI highly recommend Kris. I felt she always represented my best interest as a seller. She responded promptly in a professional manner to all my phone calls, emails, and text messages. She seems to be well respected by her piers in the Vail Valley.

ZillowVERIFIEDKris was very professional and helpful with all the buying process. She showed us several properties until we found the one perfect for us. The comunication was constant and she kept us informed about all the details pertaining the transaction constantly. She also helped a lot with the signing process since everything was done electronically. My husband and are very happy to have her as our agent and if we ever want to buy or sell another property we will for certain look for Kris to help us.

Kris went above and beyond to make the transaction easy for us. She has helped us in so many ways. Her expertise was fantastic and we would highly recommend working with her and we would definitely work with her if we did another real estate transaction. Katie

ZillowVERIFIEDKris was the best realtor I've ever worked with. The market for a buyer was very challenging. Kris helped us navigate and not only find but also close quickly on the property we were looking for. Her years of experience and knowledge of the local market were very valuable to us and made finding other services like inspectors or utilities contacts extremely easy.

Review for Member: Kris Bruce
ZillowVERIFIEDKris was recommended through a friend when we decided to move to Edwards, Colorado. We are not new to the real estate game and have bought and sold numerous properties over the past two decades as well as being real estate investors. So we know what to expect when working alongside realtors and the level of commitment, research, analysis and time to find the right property for our goals. At least we thought we did. Kris was just on another level in terms of knowing the local market, explaining unique dynamics, seeking and showing properties (virtually during COVID), accurately and proactively discussing valuation (not many agents can discuss valuation with authority) - not to mention helping manage the mortgage/closing process and offering any help with contractors when we move and remodel. I would confidently recommend Kris to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Vail valley!

ZillowVERIFIEDOf all the properties we purchased and different agents we worked with in the past, Kris is the most knowledgeable and responsive agent we ever worked with. She helped us every step of the way. Showed us around the different neighborhoods in Edwards. Listed all the positives and negatives of each. Helped us put in offers on multiple properties. Each one she even helped us negotiate a better price than the listing in this crazy hot sellers market! And we got the house of our dreams. Look no further, you wont go wrong with Kris as your agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDKris is totally professional and does a nice job of negotiating the thin balance that allows the sellers and buyers to both feel like they got an equal win/win aEUR" meaning nobody had to win at the expense of the other side losing. Clean and kind. She represented us as buyers in this transaction.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is a tough market and Kris brought us listings before they came to market. She is a local expert and is very professional. She showed us lots of property often on short notice. We really appreciate her hard work ethic.

Review for Member: Kris Bruce
ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Kris Bruce was so easy. She facilitated quick communication on price range, location, and the various specifics that we were looking for in a house. Within no time she was showing us homes that met our wishlist, and helped us narrow down our choices. She gave us solid advice on making the offer and the counter offer. And from the moment our offer was accepted she was determined to help us get a loan and close as quickly as possible. Kris' local knowledge and her deep ties to the community help her get timely appraisals, trustworthy roof inspections, etc. Kris was fantastic. I would definitely work with her again.

Review for Member: Kris Bruce
ZillowVERIFIEDSeven years ago our family moved overseas to teach internationally. Kris helped us draw up a rental agreement and helped us periodically with our home. This year we decided to put our house on the market. We contacted Kris as we were very comfortable and impressed with her from before. Kris evaluated the condition of our house, contacted people to make household improvements, and helped transfer bills (all things we could not do from Saudi Arabia). She listed the house quickly and our house got full offer in less than 12 hours! We absolutely would never have been able to to this without Kris due to her quick responsiveness, expertise, and general knowledge of the valley. We would recommend Kris Bruce to anyone considering selling or buying a home. Her attention to detail went above and beyond anything we had expected.

ZillowVERIFIEDKristina Bruce is efficient, knowledgeable and highly organized. She goes beyond what one usually expects from a real estate agent. When mold was discovered in the townhouse we wanted to sell, she handled the details of the abatement, the necessary repainting and replacement of the floor covering, things that would have been almost impossible for us since we live out of state. Kristina is very easy to work with and extremely responsible. She has also helped us purchase property and has managed rental property for us. We highly recommend her.

Review for Member: Kris Bruce
ZillowVERIFIEDWe met Kris 5 years ago. We have now bought a house and sold a house through Kris. In the first experience we became discouraged and walked away from the deal; she kept it alive. Her persistence paid off. In our recent experience with Kris, selling our beautiful home, she was the only realtor who would help us set a realistic price -other prospective realtors would not give their onions for fear of not getting the listing. We sold our house in 24 hours for cash/list price. In both cases she had done her homework well and was ready to suggest what we needed to do to get ready. While as successful as many others in her field, Kris doesn't have her ego in the deal. She's a humble overperformer. We value her expertise and professionalism.

ZillowVERIFIEDKris has been great to work with during the purchase and sale of our Eagle Vail residence. Her knowledge of the Vail Valley is very deep, Kris helped us find an outstanding General Contractor who did a great job updated our condo and stayed within our budget. Kris was very responsive and available during evenings and weekends to answer all of our questions. I would recommend consulting Kris if you're even interested in learning more about property in the Vail Valley. Thank you Kris!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have dreamed of a Colorado vacation home for our family for several years. Kris came highly recommended by friends in the area. She was steadfast, knowledgeable, professional and reliable through the entire process. Despite our cross country negotiations, her quick responsiveness to any questions or needs made the process hassle-free. Thanks to her knowledge and skills we were able to make our dream a reality!

ZillowVERIFIEDJudy and I came to the Vail Valley with no idea what we would find in property. Kris had a tour-de-force of great properties in our price range, one of which we put a contract on immediately. It was a competitive bid and Kris knew exactly what we needed to win the bid and we did. Thank You Kris.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is the second time that I've had the pleasure of working with Kris to purchase a home in the Vail valley. She is so knowledgeable about the area, quickly understands what a buyer is looking for in a property, and chases down even difficult closing issues with a calmness that is reassuring. I highly recommend Kris to potential buyers and sellers of Vail Valley real estate.

ZillowVERIFIEDKris did a great job of keeping me posted of properties that were in my price point. She has excellent knowledge of the area which was very helpful. She would also take videos and pictures and email them if I was not able to see the property in person. She did a great job of drawing up contracts/offers - she works fast and very accurate which is nice when you want to get a contract in quickly. Her ability to communicate is excellent. She was always available and if not would figure out another solution. She knows people in the area so when it came time to get people in to look at things. I will be using Kris again for sure.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe cannot say enough good things about working with Kris. She is professional, attentive, efficient, knowledgeable ... need we say more? In a very painless and expedient manner, she found us the home of our dreams. We live out of state and our schedules did not allow for us to make trips back and forth to Colorado so Kris stepped up to the plate and seamlessly handled the inspection, walk-thru and closing for us. Her efficiency and attention to detail were impeccable. We would highly recommend Kris to anyone looking for property and will be sure to use her services again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDKris sold out condo in Avon and helped us buy our new home in Wildridge/Avon. She was wonderful to work with on both transactions. Kris was completely in tune with our needs as buyer and seller. We got asking price on our condo and she was able to negotiate several other key items for us. When it came time to find the new house, she probably showed us 20 homes over several months. She knows the area very well and knows how to negotiate on behalf of her clients. We strongly recommend Kris for your next purchase or sale.
