    Kristine Schwartz

    Real estate decisions made with clarity, strategy, and care.

    With over 20 years of experience in marketing, sales, and client experience, my work is centered on one thing: helping people make confident, well-informed real estate decisions—without pressure, noise, or unnecessary complexity.

    Buying or selling a home isn’t just a transaction. It’s a financial decision, a lifestyle shift, and often a moment of transition.

    My role is to guide that process with clear thinking, thoughtful strategy, and an unwavering focus on what matters most to you—both now and long-term. 
    With over 20 years of marketing, sales & customer experience, it is my goal to make selling your home a seamless process.

    A different kind of real estate advisor

    I don’t believe in reactive decision-making or checking boxes for the sake of speed.

    I believe in:

    • Understanding timing and market behavior
    • Preparing homes intentionally before they hit the market
    • Pricing with precision, not guesswork
    • Negotiating with confidence and restraint
    • And helping clients move forward feeling steady—not rushed

    My background in business strategy and marketing allows me to look beyond the surface of a deal and focus on outcomes: how a home is positioned, how buyers will respond, and how each decision impacts the final result.

    Selling with Intention.
    Buying with confidence.

    Whether you’re preparing to sell, exploring your next move, or simply gathering information, I meet clients where they are.

    For Sellers, that often means:
    • A clear, honest valuation
    • A strategic plan for presentation and timing
    • Guidance on where to invest effort—and where not to
    • Thoughtful marketing that reflects the home and attracts the right buyer
    For Buyers, it means:
    • Understanding the market without overwhelm
    • Evaluating opportunities through both lifestyle and financial lenses
    • Moving decisively when it matters—and patiently when it doesn’t
    Every client experience is built around clarity, preparation, and trust.

    Rooted in Duluth. 
    Focused on the long view.

    I live here. I raise my family here. I pay attention to how this market moves—not just seasonally, but over time.

    From Lake Superior properties and established neighborhoods to investment opportunities and future-forward homes, I bring deep local knowledge paired with a strategic mindset. The goal is not just to make a move—but to make the right move.

    A calm, capable guide through change

    Before real estate, I worked as a business mentor and advisor, helping clients navigate complex decisions with clarity and confidence. That experience shapes how I show up today: grounded, prepared, and deeply committed to thoughtful guidance.
     
    My clients often tell me the process feels easier than they expected. That’s intentional.

    "Within this past year, this was our second home purchase with Kristine guiding us every step of the way. Another absolutely wonderful real estate experience!!
    With Kristine's help, we were able to find our forever, dream home! In addition, we had asked that our settlement be completed within two weeks so we could be in the house by Christmas.
    Through her experience, her relationships and know-how, Kristine was able to make that happen for us. We were overjoyed!
    Use Kristine for your next home purchase!"

    -Vincent Roberts
    "We were so lucky to be introduced to kristine through our son. Kristine was very knowledge about the area and really listened to us when trying to meet our needs. Our calls were returned quickly and she even took calls when on vacation!! 
    I won't hesitate to pass her name along for anyone looking to buy or sell"

    -Peggy Trost
    "If you are considering working with Kristine in any capacity, she truly cares and I would not hesitate to recommend her and what she provides to anyone willing and open to get to the next level in their life."
     
    -Amy Janzen 
    "It's very rare you find a trusted advisor who will put this much thought into the what we needed,  I value and appreciate you. Thank you Kristine!"

    -Jenny Bitner
    "Kristine made selling our house easy and successful! She had a full plan prepared during our first meetings that lined out exactly how we could generate the most foot traffic and secure the best offers for our home. She brought in professional help to ensure each step of the process was seamless and that we were looked after and supported throughout the entire journey. 

    Not only was Kristine professional, but she genuinely cared for us, our family, and our home. We had a great experience, got a fantastic sale price, and can't recommend Kristine enough. 10/10!"
