    Words cannot begin to express how grateful we are to Kris & his team. I did my due diligence to find the right realtor to sell my mother in laws home in Orlando. Hands down Kris is the guy you need. I have been in the service industry for over 25 yrs and I can definitely say that Kris embodies the essence of great customer service, follow thru and patience. He is super easy to work with and is very flexible. He is the realtor that will go above and beyond for you. For example, my mother in law accidentally locked herself out of the house & the spare key was in the lock box outside. Well, Kris literally dropped was he was doing and went to let her in. WOW! what realtor does that? If you're on the fence on who to use, all I'll say is just talk to him for 5 minutes and you'll see what I'm raving about. He has the "bed side manners" of a realtor that we all want. He's NOT your typical "car salesman" type realtor that is just looking for a quick sale. He is worth his competitive rates and then some. OH!! and he helped us secure and do a warm intro to a realtor we needed in Illinois from the Compass Group. The entire process was seamless and professional. Again, if you're on the fence it won't hurt to just talk to him. He is not pushy at all. He knows his stuff and is resourceful. Thank you again Kris!

    My family and I recently arrived in Orlando and, due to some very negative past experiences with realtors in other locations, we were a little concerned about finding a good realtor - someone we could trust and hopefully "gel" with as well. I came across Kris Kennedy while searching YouTube for real estate info in the area. I loved his videos and especially his demeanor, so we set up a meeting with Kris at the Compass office in Winter Park, and we instantly felt very comfortable with him. Kris was great to work with every step of the way, as was his team member, Kevin. They both took time to understand and care for our needs, and there was never any pressure. And, because we're a very proactive and team-driven family, we loved the space that both Kris and Kevin gave us to be very involved during the searching, negotiating, purchasing, and closing process. Kris was always there for us; he was fully available and promptly responsive. We loved the fact that he would most often take the time to call instead of texting which made things more personal and convenient. More than anything, we felt we could trust Kris and Kevin, and they made us feel like we mattered, which really is priceless. A huge thank you to Kris and his team. It was a sincere pleasure working with you!!

    Kris negotiated a great deal for me. I recently purchased a new construction home and Kris represented me as my buyer's agent. This was my first new construction purchase and I am so glad Kris was on my side to help me navigate the process and negotiate for me. I feel Kris did a great job because he simplified the process. His confidence made me more confident. He also helped us save some serious money(~$50k) with his negotiating. There were some challenging points and a lot of moving parts upfront between the builder, builder's agent, and myself. We first looked at homes in Winter Park, Delaney Park, and Baldwin Park. Ultimately, I bought a home in College Park. I absolutely love it. The area was not on my radar at first. Kris encouraged me to look at the public schools and drive time to get to my office. The schools had great ratings and the drive time was more convenient for me. There is a great little mai street with everything you could need: parks, golf course, grocery, post office, salons, restaurants, boutiques, and more. Our favorite part is that there are lots of families in the area which has been great for my kids and I to make friends. We are a stones throw to Winter Park and downtown, so we can still enjoy everything in those areas if we want as well. I am so glad that Kris was my realtor.

    Bottom line up front: If you value your time and money Kris Kennedy is your man. Kris is a true real estate professional; he was our buyers agent when we purchased our home in 2020. Kris sent plenty of options curtailed to our needs. He coached us throughout the process from start to finish he showed expertise, savvy and finesse. He comported himself with grace and poise as he deftly negotiated to win the contract on the house we really wanted. His shrewd understanding of the market, incredible negotiating skills and awareness of lending options saved us 35K+. Although he knew we would have gone as high as we needed to, Kris lobbied for the best deal he could get us. To be clear HE GOT US OUR FIRST CHOICE PROPERTY AND NEGOTIATED A LOWER PRICE (no small feat in 2020). We wanted to use a VA loan but all things considered Kris convinced us to investigate a few other lending options which saved us more $$$$. Kris's network of professional associates bend over backward for him (and thusly for his clients). He follows up. After we closed Kris has been in regular contact with us, offering productive assistance such as tax advice and reminders. He even went out of his way to get me a local interview when the my job market became saturated. There aren't many hardworking, smart, caring, professionals anymore; but you are lucky to have found one in Kris. You would be lucky to find yourself in business with Kris Kennedy. I cannot recommend him any more highly. 5 stars!

    Kris recently helped me sell my home in Winter Park, FL, and the sale and closing process couldn't have been easier with Kris' guidance and support. I came across Kris on YouTube when I initially moved to Winter Park and wanted to learn more about the area. Kris' YouTube channel is very informative and provides a lot of information about Winter Park and the surrounding neighborhoods and living in central Florida in general. Kris has built a strong team and has a wide network of buyers/sellers as well as across his peer group of agents, which allowed us to sell our home above asking price before it was even on the market (which is impressive especially given today's increasing interest rates). Kris made the closing process seamless, with just a 17-day close period. Kris, thanks for all of your support and making this such a smooth process!

    Kris was a great and very helpful realtor to work with. From the beginning, it was clear Kris was on top of his game. He had already made in an depth video explaining an investment property/properties in specific developments we were interested in. He was there to help in every step of the process and I cannot recommend Kris enough. If you're buying a home in the Orlando area, give Kris a call, you won't regret it.

    My wife and I made the decision to move across the country to Orlando in 2022, and officially made the move in April 2023. Moving to a new state, we didn't know where to start with what areas to look in, so we rented an apartment in Orlando from April 2023-present. Through the entire process, dating back to our initial decision to move to Florida, we have gone to Kris for any and all questions. He gave us advice and talked to us about all the best places to live and made us feel comfortable and confident before our big move. After the move to FL and the new apartment, Kris made sure to check in to see if we needed anything. When the time came in 2024 to start the search for a new house, he was so quick to respond, and started sending us houses to browse that fit all of our preferences. He made time in his schedule the second we were ready to tour homes, and went above and beyond with knowledge of the areas around each house, and provided honest and helpful feedback. When we finally found the home we loved, he was extremely present for any questions or concerns through the buying process. He was available night and day to give us advice, and made us feel confident and clear on any and all inquiries we had. I can guarantee you that he is the BEST realtor in the state of Florida, and we really lucked out stumbling across an informational YouTube video of his back in 2022. Reaching out to him was the best decision we could have made. If you want someone who is knowledgeable on every aspect of realty, the housing market, all the areas of Florida, and someone who is willing to give you all their time and effort, CHOOSE KRIS!!!

    I worked with Kris to buy my last house and the process was very smooth and easy. Kris and his transaction coordinator took care of everything. He knows the Orlando area very well and is part of one of the most well connected KW broker teams in the area, so he's great to work with for buying and selling.

    Our long winter move from the west coast ended happily here with Kris's help at our new home in Winter Park.

    Kris is a great realtor to work with. He represented us as buyers moving from the west coast in a low inventory market that was very challenging for buyers in the Orlando area. Kris's knowledge of the local market and community, engaging personality, and extensive contacts were a big help to us in negotiating our offer and getting us through the home purchase process with minimum stress. He was a big help in arranging for home and septic inspections and resolving issues that were identified. State Farm Insurance does not currently insure homes in Florida built before 2002. Coming from the west coast with wild fire and earthquake risks, and no problems in obtaining home insurance, difficulties in obtaining home insurance in Florida were a surprise to us. Getting insurance for our home, built in 1953, depended on obtaining a clean 4-point inspection report and a good wind mitigation report. The electrical wiring had been recently redone in the house we wanted, but the inspection identified several small issues that were essentially incomplete work from when the house was rewired. Kris was very active in resolving the identified issues, which led to the inspector reissuing a clean 4-point inspection and an insurance contract for our house at reasonable cost. Long-distance, cross-country moves are very challenging and result in the need to find a wide variety of services and professionals as part of getting settled in our new home. Kris was helpful in providing good leads in finding some of these people. He also alerted us to a number of just plain fun community events such as farmer's markets, good restaurants, and the Lue Garden's plant sale, which provided welcome breaks from the tasks of unpacking and getting organized. We highly recommend Kris Kennedy and his team.

She came in confident, assessed my home, gave me some tips and tricks that would help my home be more appealing to buyers, and then we talked about how much I was looking to sell for. When I say trust her, I mean it! I listened to her advice and expertise about what minor changes that needed to be made and where I should price the home at. She is the expert here! We priced the home right on the nose, we got offers by the next day. I listened to her advice again and was rewarded for it. We had multiple offers within 3 days of listing and I ended up selling the home higher than I thought that I would get. She actually thanked me for trusting her and for listening to her advice, because we never once had to chase the market, I was under contract with a seller within 3 days of listing, she was a wealth of knowledge about the process of everything, and I closed right when I needed to! I know that she handled a lot of things on the back end that I knew nothing about until later on at closing. My entire experience with her was wonderful and the home selling processes was pretty much painless! She was simply an amazing realtor and I would definately use her again for buying and/or selling of my home!

We had a fabulous Florida Mid Century house that when we bought it had been upgraded with all the designer fixings and a spacious backyard with room for the 15x 30 6 ft deep pool we built with all new landscaping, turf, slabs and marble creating a resort style backyard. We knew we could probably break even so when a house came up on the market for close to what we were wanting to list I went to the open house to get the low down from the listing agent. On that day I met Mary Heidrich and I knew right away that she was good people. She was charming, warm and friendly and I could tell she was not the typical Floridian Realtor who seemed to look out only for personal gain and greed which was something very important to us since we wanted someone we could trust. A month later we listed and because of Marys trust in our home, expertise and most likely her charm to the buyer we received an all cash offer near asking price and we broke even and then some. Mary thank you from the bottom of our hearts without your excitement and trust in our how special we had made that home we would have been lost.
