What do Clients Say?

I would like to thank Kellen for all of her assistance and care that she provided when it came to selling our home. After having our house on the market for over 1 year and receiving no offers, we were skeptical about hiring another agent. Kellen came highly recommended by our family doctor. She made it her mission to ensure that each and every person who entered the home would understand its history and the legacy that it would leave behind. Throughout the entire process I always felt comfortable knowing that Kellen had our best interests in mind and could handle any obstacle that came our way. Not only was she very professional in the transaction, she was a sense of comfort and meticulously detailed every part of the transaction. She has become a very dear friend to me and to my family. We speak to Kellen frequently and we all genuinely hope that she will come visit us at our new home. I would highly recommend Kellen to anyone that is in need of a home or is selling their home. Her excellence is unsurpassed. Thank you again Kellen, for all that you have done during this process.

Kellen Flanigan was our agent on the sale of our condo in Santa Monica during a very difficult time in our lives. Expecting baby #2 and in a very small space without a new home found, we were on edge. Kellen was calm, pro-active and helped us get through the whole process without a hitch. We had to live with a family member temporarily until we found a home. It was to say the least, unpleasant. All of us had exhausted our resources with homes that were listed in the MLS. Kellen talked to many agents at other companies and was able to spark an idea with a CB agent. He knew she was thinking about selling so we set up an appointment. It was love at first sight. The deal was done. We not only got a great house in our exact location, the price was just right. We are so grateful to have Kellen as our realtor and now as a friend.

Jordan Farmar Foundation 11835 W. Olympic Blvd., Ste 360 Los Angeles, CA 90064 It is my pleasure to recommend Kellen as a realtor in Southern California. She found my first home for me and has continued to represent me in all of my residential real estate needs. Recently she sold two of my homes in LA and they sold over asking price and closed within 30 days. She is professional, smart, organized and has a terrific team with a great systems set up. I refer her whenever I hear if someone is either buying or selling a home. She can handle the first time homebuyers with as much care as the very high-end homeowners who expect the absolute best care and attention. Kellen is also a wonderful person who cares very much about her clients, almost to a fault. She goes above and beyond for everyone. My family and I will always appreciate her as she is my God Mother and has been there for me since I was a child. Kellen is it. You won’t regret it!

Kellen came highly recommended to us. We are so glad to have had her as our real estate agent in both the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new home. Her expertise, professionalism, and knowledge went a long way toward smooth and positive transactions. She carefully weighed many factors and worked closely with us to determine the best listing price for ourprevious home, then marketed and represented our home beautifully to get it sold at a price we were happy with. During the negotiations for both transactions, Kellen really went to bat for us and simultaneously worked to keep us calm and informed throughout what could have otherwise been a nerve-wracking experience.Kellen was always available and responsive to answer all our questions and listen to all of our ideas, and she provided countless suggestions along the way that really paid off. Kellen not only sold our previous home quickly and at a great price, she got us into an extremely sought-after home that had multiple offers, also at a great price. She then worked her magic to line up inspections and various other escrow-related activities at light speed to help us achieve the short escrow we needed so we could get into the house and get settled before the arrival of baby #2.Kellen is a fantastic real estate agent and a warm and caring person. It was a pleasure to work with Kellen, and we truly feel she had our best interestin mind throughout the process. She went out of her way to ensure that we were happy and satisfied clients. She is the full package! Thank you Kellen!

Kellen Flanigan was my real estate agent during the sale of my home this year in Brentwood. Her depth and breadth of knowledge when it came to the Los Angeles area were truly remarkable. She went above and beyond the call of duty by not only dealing perfectly with both parties but also doing it during a credit crunch that could have derailed the sale. Without Kellen I doubt that this sale would have happened and I'm certain that my wife and I would not have been nearly as happy as we are today. I cannot thank her enough for her attention to detail and her tenacity in making sure that everything went smoothly for us. Kellen was a true pleasure to work with.

About Kellen

My family moved to Reno in the early 70’s and we built our home in Southwest Reno where my mother still resides. I attended school here in Reno until high school. I then attended Santa Catalina School for girls in Monterey and graduated in 1983. Having spent summers interning in Washington, D.C, I ended up getting my undergraduate degree in International Relations at USC in 1987. I worked my senior year for Drexel Burnham Lambert in Beverly Hills and was recruited to their 2-year training program after graduation, which took place in NYC. The program included extensive graduate work at the NY Institute of Finance. After Drexel imploded, I started a Broker/Dealer firm in the 90’s and grew it to 35 employees with offices in NY and LA. I served on the board of the NASD, National Association of Securities Dealers, for three years in our district of Los Angeles. Our clients were high net worth individuals and small institutions. Among a myriad of financial transactions, I raised capital for real estate development transactions and a substantial size REIT. I fell in love with the real estate side of the business and sold my investment firm in 2000 to pursue a career in real estate.

My first year in the business, I worked with Joyce Rey, who has been one of the top 10 International agents for Coldwell Banker for 30 years. Learning from her, coupled with my financial background, allows me to serve my clients and negotiate on their behalf regarding their real estate transactions.

Since December of ’06 I have been a Broker/real estate agent in the Luxury Homes Division with Keller Williams Realty in Santa Monica, CA. I was with Coldwell Banker in Santa Monica for two years prior to that. I served on the ALC, the Agent Leadership Council for 6 years. Which comprises the top 20% of the firm and a nomination for this position. I was head of the finance committee for our franchise, making sure we lead with revenue, and profit hits are our bottom line. I leaned heavily on my background in finance. I enjoy marketing high-quality homes and matching them with the appropriate qualified homebuyers. I have been in the top 50 producers circle of Keller Williams nationally since 2007. I am working with Dickson Realty in the Luxury Portfolio Division.

Personally, I am married to Rob Stinnett, also from Reno, NV, who is a Nevada/California General Contractor. I am a parent of two children, Nicholas and Madison, ages 27 & 28 respectively. Together Rob and I invest, build, remodel and sell our finished high-end residential products. We love what we do! We are also avid road cyclists, skiers and volunteer for many animal awareness programs.
