OUR NAME IS OUR PHILOSOPHY
There is a concept in sales which states: in order to make a sale, clients should Know, Like and Trust you. We believe there is something missing in this approach: Information.
There should have always been an “I” in that acronym. We believe clients should be informed about the product or service they are buying. So we made our philosophy our name: KILT
KNOW
INFORM
LIKE
TRUST
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
"If you are looking for an expert negotiator, client-success driven leader, and someone who will go above and beyond your needs, then you must work with Francesco Marraffa. He was a trusted partner and always available for us as we built a new home, making numerous trips out to the home site, and built a relationship with our builder's sales agent. His brilliant negotiating skills reduced costs on line-items we didn't even think were negotiable. Franco even researched pricing on other amenities, like appliances, for us and was able to save us a great deal of money. I would highly recommend working with Franco for any of your real estate needs. Five stars all around."

"Francesco was seriously awesome, and I would HIGHLY recommend. We were first time homebuyers and he was there every step of the way. Our search radius was very small, only focusing on Bryn Mawr and Cedar Isles, and he was extremely responsive and got us in to see houses the day they came onto the market working around our schedules (with the state of the market this was definitely important). Also, not only was he knowledgeable about the areas and houses we were looking in he was so personable and made an emotional process fun and memorable. I know we will definitely reach out to him again if/when we decide to purchase again."
Lexi R.
"We had an absolute amazing experience working with Francesco! I was a super indecisive and he was so understanding and patient with me as I made him go all over the twin cities and changed my mind multiple times. Each step of the way he offered great advice which was so valuable in helping us narrow down our location and find our first home. He was very generous with his time, always responsiveness and when we were ready to offer he was right on top of it. Most importantly he was honest and helpful and we trusted his advice and benefited from his knowledge. We also had a lot of fun and laughs throughout the process! We absolutely recommend him and will certainly use him again to sell and find us another home if needed!"
