Home Buyer
Tim & Hilary
We had a terrific experience working with Kristine & Kim. As someone who was purchasing property from out of state and didn’t even see the home in person until the day of closing, they made it work!! They made the process from start to finish way less stressful than we thought it would be. Most of all they were patient, knowledgable and proactive which we greatly appreciated.

Winter snow averages 27 inches per year. Temps in Bend can be in the 20°-40° F during the day, and can drop to -5° to -10° F during the night.
