Kurstin Johnson

Kurstin has purchased and sold homes for my family (mother, sister and me) for the past five years. With her credentials, we would never go anywhere else. She is the past president of both the New Mexico Real Estate Commission and the Greater Albuquerque Association of Realtors, and was even selected as Realtor of the Year, the highest honor a realtor can receive locally. Her experience and professionalism are unmatched.In 2015, Kurstin sold our Albuquerque home in one day for full asking price with multiple offers for a price well above nearby comps and at the max expected appraisal value. She and her team coordinated every aspect of the sale smoothly and efficiently, easily handling the inevitable hiccups in any major transaction. And because of her experience and connections locally, she has access to the area's best inspectors, home repair specialists, mortgage brokers, and title companies. I could not recommend her more highly.

Owner Kurstin Johnson and her team are the best. We recently relocated to the Albuquerque area from Minnesota. Vista Encantada was recommended to us by a friend and we are so glad we listened. From the first time we walked through the door we felt like we were among friends who cared about us; not just real estate professionals who wanted our business. We met with Kurstin and gave her our new home wish list. She listened and offered suggestions based on our wishes. She set up an online portal with a list of properties that might meet our needs. This was helpful to us as we were still living in Minnesota when we started our new home search and we could view the properties online and choose the ones we wanted to see when we were in the area. Kurstin never tried to persuade us to buy a particular style of house, or a particular priced one, or even a particular area. She just listened to us and pointed out the advantages or disadvantages of homes and areas we toured. In the end we purchased the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood for us. From the home tours, through the offer, inspections, and closing Kurstin's and her team's services were impeccable. If you are looking for a partner to help find your next home, you can't go wrong with Vista Encantada!

We just bought and sold our last two homes through Kurstin. Prior to that she handled our previous home sales. She is a consummate professional. She gave us excellent advice. She returns calls promptly and is aided by an excellent staff.

Kurstin was highly professional and extremely knowledgeable through every step of the process. Her attention to detail and tenacity in getting my needs met made my experience go very smoothly. She went above and beyond the business relationship and seem to truly care about me as a person and getting my needs met, getting me into the right home that fit the needs of me and my family. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

My husband and I have relocated many times in multiple states. We recently worked through a purchase on a house in Corrales that was the most complicated purchase we could imagine - neighbor's well on our property, private road agreements, you name it...kurstin helped us navigate through the issues. If she didn't know the answer, she knew someone that could help. We got all issued resolved and pulled it off in record time. Kurstin is a true professional and incredibly knowledgeable.

Kurstin both sold our existing home in the East Mountains and found our new home in North Albuquerque Acres. In between those two things, she showed us numerous alternatives in various neighborhoods and kept refining the search as she learned more about our wants and needs. Her input was very professional, but also very direct and honest. With her able assistance we found a home that we are very happy with. Both she and her support staff are excellent.
