The Shackelford Group

Biography

For the past 11 years, Kirsten has helped clients navigate the real estate market in Idaho, whether they’re buying, selling, or investing.  Many of those clients are relocating to Idaho.  Originally from Central California, Kirsten made the move to Idaho 14 years ago.  She and her husband Jack left all they knew, their family, church and friends, to make the move to Idaho.  Relocating can be so much more than buying a house.  There are emotions that change each day, second guessing, fear, excitement, etc.  and she welcomes the opportunity to talk about the emotional side of making a move as she knows it firsthand.  Kirsten will also be the first to tell you she has no regrets.

Kirsten owns property and has helped with many land/acreage transactions and has a strong understanding of what goes into buying and selling homes on acreage. She has five years of experience in new home sales, including two years focused specifically on luxury homes. That experience has sharpened her eye for detail and quality—skills she brings to every transaction. Kirsten’s experience in recruiting and headhunting prior to real estate taught her the importance of truly listening to people.  She prides herself on finding the right house for her clients and not letting them settle for less than what they really want.

When not working, Kirsten loves spending time with her kids and grand kids, tending to her farm, enjoying the gorgeous state of Idaho on side by side rides with her family and cheering on the Boise State Broncos.  Fun fact, Kirsten is a foodie so her clients are never without a restaurant recommendation, whether it is a local hole-in-the wall, the best gas station hot dogs, or a fine dining restaurant.

If you are a first-time buyer or have years of experience in real estate, Kirsten would love to help and guide you through the process with honesty, care, and expertise.
