In the course of moving all over the country during a 43 year airline career we have engaged in many real estate transaction involving multiple realtors.  Skip Kirst is in a class alone in terms of competence, professionalism, and support.  I have never seen a realtor do a better job of representing his clients’ interests or in supporting both the purchase and sale right down to the most minute detail.  Skip is as good as it gets!

  • Concierge-Level Service

    Skip is a professional and highly knowledgeable luxury real estate broker that made the purchase of a vacation residence painless and enjoyable. In addition to demonstrating superior knowledge of the market, Skip provides concierge-level service to his clients, and was particularly helpful in coordinating the renovation of our newly purchased residence.  Unlike many brokers, Skip demonstrates a genuine desire to form lasting relationships with his clients, which is why we will most certainly use Skip for our future real estate transactions.  As a fellow professional in the real estate industry, I would highly recommend Skip to any prospective buyer or seller of luxury real estate.

  • Cheerful and Professional

    I have known Skip for many years, both professionally and socially. When the time came to sell my condo in New Smyrna Beach, I wanted him to be my realtor. I wasn’t disappointed. Skip helped clean up the property, staging the furnishings to best advantage. The property had been listed with another realtor for a year before I hired Skip. The prior realtor had not generated a single offer. I was thrilled when Skip brought a buyer only a few weeks after we listed it with him. After contract, the buyer had numerous issues with financing causing delay after delay. Through it all, Skip was cheerful and professional. He was revising contract extensions even while preparing for his wedding in California. Thanks to his dedication and perseverance, the deal Closed. I recommend Skip without reservation. He will get the job done.

  • Hard Working, Caring, and Creative

    Knowing Skip professionally (from his years as Construction Lawyer) and personally for many years, we were eager to use his services to sell our beach condominium. With a down market and competitive inventory, however, we were not expecting much. To our glad surprise, Skip was able to sell our unit for ABOVE asking price after a bidding war. Amazing.
    Skip is hard working, caring, and creative. We could not be more pleased with him and feel strongly about our endorsement of his skills.
    Thank you, Skip!

  • A Friendship Beyond Our Closings

    Upon the recommendation from a good friend we engaged the services of Skip Kirst to assist in selling our beachfront condo and buying a house in New Smyrna Beach. Skip was very attentive to our needs. He was always on time, very professional, and was engaged personally in our sale/purchase.  Not only did he do everything a great agent would do, he went above and beyond by investing his personal time to get to know us and understand our “style.” This personal approach not only shows Skip’s valued interest in his clients but allowed us to only be directed to property that suited us. As we got to know Skip through these sales we developed a friendship that has continued beyond our closings. Our condo sold within the first week with multiple offers and we were able to enter into a contract for our dream home within two weeks after our condo contract was signed. We highly recommend Skip to anyone looking to buy or sell. He is really good at what he does!
