"Kristin is a blast to work with...she is fun and creative, great with clients and budgets of all sizes. She is professional and well connected, a great resource." - Denise
I have worked within real estate for the past 14 years, in the business of turning houses into homes. I specialize in helping sellers prepare their homes to appeal to the most buyers for the best price. On the buyers side I enjoy helping to identify and achieve all the potentials and possibilities in the homes they want. Either way it is a collaborative effort.
I have worked in several industries in the past starting with my first real job working for IBM in California, I have worked for non-profits, been a small business owner, and have an interior design background. I enjoy remodel projects and know how to get that “bang for your buck” with home updates.
The majority of my experience has been in Boulder, Louisville, Lafayette, Erie, Superior, Broomfield, and Longmont, with occasional work farther north or south when needed. Specifically, I have expertise in Waneka Landing, Indian Peaks, and the newer developments of North End and Steel Ranch.
I have been fortunate to have lived in numerous states in the US…California, Hawaii, Tennessee, Missouri, Alabama, and spent lots of time in Texas. I also lived in Guam and Jamaica. I have a four year degree from University of Alabama at Birmingham, a Masters Degree from San Jose State, CA, and an Interior Design Certificate from Sheffield School of New York. I enjoy new challenges and continually learning.
In addition to moving a lot in the past, I spent numerous summers on family camping trips in the Rocky Mountain before calling Colorado home. I have lived in Boulder County for the past 17 years. I was drawn to Colorado for the 300 days of sun in addition to the great snow days, not to mention the great sports teams, amazing culinary experiences, incredible music venues, and extensive outdoor life.
I have a husband and two children. We first lived in Boulder and now reside in Lafayette. Both kids have moved through the Boulder County School system they are in middle school with one transitioning to high school next year. We spend a lot of our free time with kid’s sports (soccer, basket ball, karate) and activities (boy scouts and music). We also try to sneak a few ski/snowboard or local travel weekends in.
Locally, I have been involved in the Chamber of Commerce and on the boards of two business groups. I look forward to seeing you at the Post restaurant or 95a Bistro in Lafayette, perhaps the Louisville Street fair, or walking our dogs around Waneka Lake, at the farmers market, hiking the trails, or any one of the other activities we have in this great state.

Kristin is a wealth of knowledge. She is easy to work with and blends well with other professionals on the job. When I get frustrated, Kristin always seems to keep me on track of my original goals. I am at a point where I am afraid to make a decision without her blessing. I am so thankful to have her in my life.Becky G.
There are three main reasons why my 8z Realtors are such effective agents. They are careful listeners, know people who can get things done, and are on the cutting edge of real estate technology. - Becky GLenny T.
My 8z Realtor did everything they said they would and more - a person of the highest integrity. More than qualified, they were delightful to work with and always had a shining smile and attitude.
Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2019 for approximately $600K in Broomfield, CO.
Kristin was wonderful to work with in selling our home and buying our new home. She was always available to help and answer questions as well a providing guidance throughout the process. With her help in market analysis and pricing as well as the 8Z team, we were able to sell our home in 10 days and get a good price for it. On the buy, she negotiated a fair price and got the concessions we required. We highly recommend her.

Bought a Single Family home in 2018 in Littleton, CO.
Kristin was fantastic throughout the entire process of our buying a home, which was a long one! She was very patient and understanding and continued to check back in with us periodically when we got discouraged by the process and the homes available in our price range and desired area. Since we were buying down south, her experience in that area was limited, but she quickly identified our preferences and eventually got us into a home that we will love.
Kristin also helped us negotiate out of a contract in which the home had significant issues and did not seem bothered in the least by starting the process over. She helped a lot with all aspects of the transaction, including some prodding of the lender to get paperwork done timely. Overall, I have only positive things to say!

Bought a Condo home in 2019 for approximately $550K in Whittier, Boulder, CO.
A friend referred us to Kirstin and we were not disappointed! She was great in helping us purchase our condo - very responsive, always had a positive attitude, and worked to make the process relatively simple for us. We always felt like she had our best interests at heart, and she was able to be both flexible and decisive when the situation called for it. We would definitely recommend Kristen to other homebuyers.

Bought a Single Family home in 2018 for approximately $550K in Gunbarrel, Longmont, CO.
I bought my first house with Kristin and it would not have been possible without her! She was super knowledgeable in everything - local knowledge, inspections, renovation ideas, structural notes - you name it. She is extremely kind and makes the whole process as enjoyable and easy as it could be. If you're looking for a responsive, intelligent, trustworthy, and friendly real estate agent to be on your side... definitely pick Kristin!!!

Bought a Single Family home in 2018 for approximately $950K in Erie, CO.
Kristin was an absolute pleasure throughout our entire process of purchasing a home. She was available consistently and very responsive to our myriad of questions. She really does commit to you as a buyer, even now - several months after our closing - she is still in contact recommending local vendors to help us settle in and ensure a smooth first year in our home. We would readily recommend Kristin for any home buyer.

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2018 for approximately $650K in Louisville, CO.
Kristin was very attentive and patient before, during, and after our sale. She never had a problem when we couldn't find the exact house we wanted or needed to reschedule things due to a family emergency. Kristin is very knowledgeable regarding real estate and she has loads of contacts to help you sell you house and to move into your new one.

Bought a Single Family home in 2008 in North Creek Farms, Thornton, CO.
My wife and I made our first home purchase this February 2018 with the help of Kristin Bramer of 8z. Kristin is an extremely knowledgeable, helpful, detailed-oriented, and thoughtful agent. We really enjoyed working with her. Being first-time home buyers, we asked alot of questions, and Kristin was able to provide answers to everything we asked and effectively reach out to the sellers' agents on our behalf. She truly has alot of experience in the CO real estate market. We really appreciate all the help she provided with making the offer and completing the pre-closing tasks (inspection resolution, walk-through, etc.).
