Huff, they were able to send 2 boats and 3 planes full of supplies to the Bahamas in the first weeks plus 5 semi loads on to containers bound for the hardest hit areas of the Bahamas.

“I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to be the Realtor to the Blue and the opportunity to assist,” Kristen stated. “Whether it’s finding that first home or helping, in the unfortunate situations of a loss, needing to sell assets or relocate where a family resides, my job is to make any transition and transaction as smoothly as possible for those involved. Having worked in the life coaching realm for the last 10 years along with my real estate experience it is a unique set of skills that I am fortunate enough to have and coupled with the ability to facilitate a transaction”.
