ZillowVERIFIEDKristin and Taylor were an absolute dream to work with. From the moment they arrived at our home we were struck by their professionalism and knowledge of the market. They were able to quickly negotiate an off market deal on our home as we prepared to move cross country. I would highly recommend The Halton Group for any of your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Kristin and her team have been a delight. Professional, responsive, great attention to details... Our overall experience was seamless and we felt confident about the sale of our house from the outset working with Kirstin

ZillowVERIFIEDThe best recommendation I can offer about Kristin is that we hired her a second time, and without hesitation. Kristin and her team are as tenacious in finding a buyer as they are in closing the deal. Every aspect of the sale from start to finish is meticulously managed. Communication is abundant and response to questions or issues that may arise are quickly addressed. We offer our highest recommendation.

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin Halton is the best realtor in Orange County and the one you want to choose if you are serious about buying or selling a new home in the area. Kristin's knowledge of the market, the locations, and her sales strategy is second to none. She will do a great job leaving no stone unturned throughout the process until you are satisfied with the end result. One of the things I loved about working with Kristin is that she never said no! She was always available to show us a property at the spur of a moment and always available for a phone call or text, no matter the time of the day. It is nice knowing that you have someone with her acumen in your corner. Another great thing about Kristin is that she will go to bat for you no matter the offer. She does everything in her power to get the deal done for her clients. Her advice when it comes to positioning of the deal and negotiation strategy is superior to anyone else I have ever work with. Even though Kristin is the leader of the group, let's not forgot about her support staff. Gina and Caitlin are superstars as well. Having them be a part of our team helped us immensely and helped us navigate through the entire sales process. We could not of done it without them. Overall, Kristin and team is second to none. Don't think twice about using them for any of your real estate needs! They are simply the best!

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin and her team are fantastic! We had 3 realtors come by and reviewing their presentations but ultimately we used the Halton Group to sell our house. Kristin showed up and gave a presentation about what she could offer and bring to the table. We discussed our expectations and what we were looking to accomplish. Kristin was professional and we felt confident talking to her that she was vested in selling our home, and that she wasn't just saying she could perform to get the listing. She was very interested in all the upgrades we had done to the house and leveraged her connections and marketing team to best showcase our house as the best in the neighborhood, which it was! It was important that our home was being sold as if it was hers as we put a lot of hard work into it over the years and felt we didn't cut corners and we wanted to make sure that came out in the listing and during showings. We had 6 or 7 offers in the first few days after they started showing it, and all offers were above asking price and went into escrow within a week after that! If I had another home to sell I would go back to Kristin in a heartbeat!In addition, Gina is masterful in her handling of the day to day contact with the other agent and the buyers of our home. She is on top of her game and I honestly dont know if we would have survived this process without her. She was very responsive and knowledgeable which was very important as we navigated through all the difficult aspects of selling a home (one would think its easy but it is not!). Also we wanted to provide a shoutout to Caitlin on her team who was not only involved in the impressive marketing, but she also made herself available for showings! All hands were on deck to sell our home and it's fantastic to see. Couldn't be happier with our outcome and all that Kristin and her team (including Gina and Caitlin) put into selling our home.

ZillowVERIFIEDI'm disappointed I can only give Kristin and her team 5 stars! Kristin is the most professional, knowledgeable and instinctive realtor Ive ever worked with...and Ive bought and sold 14 properties. She sold our home quickly during the Covid scare. She not only obtained multiple offers, she made sure she had multiple backups. Once the house was under contract, her team took over and handled everything! Kristin is truly impressive! Highly recommend!

Review for Member: Kristin Halton
ZillowVERIFIEDKristin is a force of nature with a team of superwomen providing exceptional support. When my parents asked me to coordinate the sale of their Central Orange County home of 51 years, I was determined that they would have the best and most profitable home sale experience possible. After extensive internet research, and interviewing/grilling the top five realtors Id identified, only the two strongest teams remained: one that specialized in older ranch style homes like my parents -- in my parents hometown no less -- and the Kristin Halton Group (KHG), whose sales lists tended towards multi-million dollar coastal homes. Though it might not have seemed the obvious choice, I signed on with KHG as Kristin is truly passionate about her work. KHGs commitment to achieving our mutual goals of "highest sales price/best experience" convinced me that commitment should be spelled with a capital aEURoek.aEUR? I still feel that way today. The sales experience essentially happened just as Kristin had initially planned it: my parents home sold quickly -- for $5,000 over the asking price aEUR" $55,000 higher than the aEURoehome townaEUR? realty team said it would! When the buyers loan unexpectedly fell through, KHG helped them find a better lender. Now thats, Kommittment. Thank you, KHG!

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin's knowledge of the marketplace, her marketing skills, the competence of her staff, and her guidance through the closing were all first rate. A terrific experience through something (selling a house) that I only do every 20 years or so. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin Halton and team are a class act and did an outstanding job marketing our property. They were always thinking outside the box, working proactively and around the clock to make sure our property got the maximum exposure. Without a doubt we would use the Kristin Halton Group again!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy advice to anyone reading this review is to list your home with Kristin, take her advice about how to prepare your home for sale, and let Kristin and her team do what they do so well. Kristin knows real estate like no one I've met, and her team which works behind the scenes is remarkably well organized and thorough. I chose to meet with Kristin after a careful online search of realtors in the Newport Beach area, so I had high expectations for Kristin. She met or exceeded all my expectations. I was impressed with her marketing plan, which included not only traditional print media but also a comprehensive internet marketing campaign. Her team was exceptionally organized. They frequently went to the house to coordinate workmen, helped multiple times to arrange donations of furniture, handle inspections, and so many little things that kept my long commutes to the house at a minimum. Kristin's team uses software called Basecamp which tracks all tasks associated with selling a house. I always knew just what had been done and what the plans were. I never had to wonder what about what was going on. And when you're selling a home, there is a lot to keep track of.All in all, my experience could not have been better. From Kristin's advice and negotiating skills to the remarkable support of her team, the selling of my mother-in-law's home was as painless as possible. Let Kristin and her team handle your sale and you will be very glad you did.

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin helped us to sell our home and then buy a new one (Costa Mesa then Huntington Beach). She is truly a consummate professional who knows the Costa Mesa market inside and out. She is an amazing aggressive negotiator, right when we needed it. For our sale, she helped us immensely with the end stages of finishing a very large remodel. If you ever need this - go with Kristin - she truly helped us finish our house so that it was the most marketable. She referred contractors, advised, brought in designers, and more. And, this was months prior to putting the home on the market. She helped us to price and then market the house flawlessly. Sale was quick and without a hitch. For our new home, she helped us to secure a relo property and negotiated aggressively on terms, credits, close dates, etc. I would use Kristin again and again. Worth every penny!

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin was incredible start to finish. She is honest, creative, and is there every step of the way. One of the things I loved most about her is that she is always prepared! She just doesnt rely on a plan A, she has a plan B, C, and D.You never know what will happen during the sale and she was on top of it. If it wasnt for her and her team we would not have found a buyer in ten days at a record price for the area.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have bought and sold and renovated 10+ houses and in multiple states and worked with many realtors. Kristin, and her team, are the best. Responsive, intelligent, urgent, experienced, and caring, Kristin and her team have it all. Our record neighborhood sale was a near impossible feat. Our house was no where near sales ready and much of Kristin's work on her own, and with a designer, helped us finish off the house properly, doing many things we thought might not be right in terms of finishes, only to learn she was on target and correct. We had to sell for a record amount, in a short time span, and she got it done. On the buying end, Kristin powerfully and masterfully negotiated us into a sale and pushed her way through many obstacles to get it done. Her experience, drive, business skills, etc. all shown through. I highly recommend Kristin and her team - if you are selling in Eastside Costa Mesa, she is tops. We are no easy clients, our house was no easy sale, and she simply got it done. Thank you to her, her team, and her designer for a job well done!

ZillowVERIFIEDWow, were we so lucky to find such an amazing realtor and new close family friend for life. I wish more realtors had her positive energy and amazing patience. Every question we had was answered and anything we didnt asked was advised to us making this experience what I could only describe in my opinion as a five star experience with a down to earth feel. I could go on for hours about Noelle. I just hope more people find her and experience her above and beyond professionalism and patients. She turned what we thought would be a stressful experience into a beautiful journey.

ZillowVERIFIEDIt has been such a pleasure to work with Kristin Halton and her team over the past couple of months. Kristin was referred to us through a mutual friend, and upon meeting her, my wife and I knew we were in good hands. She found us a home that was perfect for our family, but unfortunately we were unable to secure the loan. After we fell out of escrow we were devastated, but she continued to assure us that something would come up...and it did. Someone had reached out to us but stated that they did not want to use a realtor. We tried to get them to use Kristin because she had made the other transaction so easy, but they would not hear of it. Upon telling her the great news that we had found a house, we had to give her the bad news that they did not want to use a realtor. We talked about other alternatives, but ultimately the seller would not budge. Even though she was aware that the sellers would not use a realtor, Kristin continued to help guide us through the process and we were able to get a great house at a great price.We cant say enough about Kristin and her group, and if the need ever arises again to either sell or buy, The Halton Group will get our business!Thank you Kristin for your guidance throughout process, and we are forever grateful for everything you have done for our Family!!

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is the second time we have used Kristin in the last 6 months. First when selling our home then buying a new one. Obviously our experience was great so we decided to use her and her team again. One of their strongest traits is that Kristin and her team are always available and reliable. Whenever you call you will always get someone and they are very helpful. Buying a home can be a little stressful. Kristin was great at keeping us calm throughout the process. We are very happy with our new home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe used Danae to purchase our first home back in 2011 and again in 2017 to sell it. She has amazing real estate knowledge, good negotiation skills and is very detail orientated which is why we will never use anyone else. Whether buying or selling, Danae makes the process incredibly easy and takes extra steps other Realtors won't (but should).Her hard work and knowledge of what it took to sell our home really paid off. Our listing looked amazing and we received over 10 offers within days of being posted. Danae was wonderful about explaining each offer and staying on top of the entire transaction to ensure we closed without any hiccups. Look no further, Danae and the entire team at the Halton Group are are nothing short of amazing!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe enjoyed working with Demetria to sell our house in Newport Beach and relocate to Hawaii. Demetria is thoroughly professional, attentive and responsive. She offered excellent advice, answered every question and helped us to make informed decisions. I could tell that she worked hard behind the scenes to make the process easy on us. We were often in and out of town - she was always enthusiastic to help with tasks or referrals to get things done in our absence. The Halton Group's team (Kristin, Megan, Gina and Paula) made sure nothing fell through the cracks during the escrow process. All-in-all it was a great experience and I would work with Demetria again without question to sell, or to buy, a house.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have had two great experiences with The Halton Group. They helped us buy a home in Corona del Mar and sell a home in Corona del Mar. They got us top price per square foot, helped us stage and prepare for open houses and really maximized our return. They also helped solve escrow issues, even when things looked like we might not be able to close, they worked day and night and helped us resolve all of the issues. They were energetic, creative and always communicated. Could not be happier and would definitely use them again.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe interviewed seven other realtors in our area and selected the Halton Group for their expertise, local knowledge and team set up. We had no idea our selection would prove to be so beneficial. First the complexity of selling a home has magnified since our last sale. Second we were not living at the property for sale or even in the state. Lastly, as a result of the sale which took place in 15 days after we listed it, we had several repairs top be coordinated at the house. The Halton group was there every step of the way and even backed our decision to leave the deal at one point(never had too happen). They were a team that was there for everything that came up. We got top dollar and a quick sale- why would you go with anyone else

I would highly recommend her if want a top-notch professional. I just bought our second house from the Halton Group. Danae Aballi handled my transaction. She was calm, smart, helpful and extremely professional. These are just a few of the qualities that Danae displayed during some very difficult negotiations when purchasing my home. I would highly recommend her and the great team at The Halton Group.

ZillowVERIFIEDAshley and her team have been so helpful with my family and I in the beginning stages of selling our home. We were unsure at first who to choose to represent us, but once referred to Ashley with The Halton Group, we were so impressed! Ashley goes above and beyond to make sure we are up to date with the current market. She has a handful of buyers already in mind for our home when we are ready to list our house in the near future.

ZillowVERIFIEDDemetria is one of the best real estate agents i have ever met! She is professional, smart and knows exactly how to get the home sold! She just sold my home in portola springs and though the entire process i felt like i always had the best communication and always knew what was going on. On top of her communication skills, she has the knowledge of the area and always kept me up to date with the current comparable sales and market activity. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anybody i know. I will also point out: The Halton Group as a whole is an amazing team and i fully enjoyed working with everyone of them! Thank you for all of your help and for donating in my honor to the charity... that was the cherry on top!

ZillowVERIFIEDKristin is knowledgeable about the area and was able to find us exactly what we were looking for. We literally ended up buying the second place she showed us. The buying process went smoothly and quickly and Kristin was very helpful. This is our first home so we weren't familiar with the process but the team was patient and explained everything we had questions about. We love our new home and had a easy and quick buying experience. Thanks again!
