What Our Clients Say About

Kim

Kim expertise is knowing the area homes and the market pricing. She is a good marketer and outstanding listener. She helped us in selling a large and unique property which required a very special type of buyer. She was patient through a very lengthy and difficult negotiation process. The resultant sale met our expectations. I would use her expertise again.

Kurt Cassel

Kimberly as a realtor and community member is so knowledgeable and has her finger on the pulse of our community. She is an invaluable resource, and I would encourage anyone who is looking to buy, sell or relocate to his area to talk to Kim about your residential or commercial property interests. Her knowledge of everything from local bank and credit union financing opportunities and interest rate on mortgages to good local schools with an intricate knowledge of what to do and what to see in our summer resort area of Northern Michigan. I can't say enough about how knowledgeable, friendly, and resourceful Kim Kihnke is.

Lindsey W.

Kim is the most impressive realtor I have ever had the pleasure of working with!! Extremely knowledgeable in every aspect of her profession and knows plenty about building homes too! She is invaluable for other info concerning contractors, maintenance people and places to visit in a large northern area of Michigan. In addition to all that, she is probably one of the kindest, most patient, caring people I’ve ever met.

Steven P. Lawrence
