I'm a Traverse City native and the youngest of 6. I was taught early how to “negotiate” in my best interest because of my 3 older brothers. I use that experience now to “negotiate" the best outcome for my clients. After 20 years of traveling and living in different parts of the country, I settled back in Traverse City with my husband and 2 kids in 2005. What a great place to call home! I have been in sales of one kind or another all of my working life, earning my Real Estate license in 2010. I've learned over the years that relationships are what build sales. Each and every experience is unique and comes with its own set of rewards and challenges. My goal is to make this part of the process as smooth as possible. I'm dedicated to my family, clients, and career, working diligently to earn trust and loyalty. So, while you won't find my smiling face on a billboard around town, you will find a dedicated Real Estate professional working tirelessly to keep you and your friends coming back for more!

Buyer Review
Michael and Karen Hockin
Kristine Shacklette was very professional and helpful with any support while going through our process (of purchasing our new home). Kristine was responsive with our questions and time for reviewing the home and for inspections. Her local knowledge of loan organizations helped us secure an improved rate and enabled us to complete our new home transaction. Kristine is a pleasure to work with on purchasing our new home. Thank you for all your efforts Kristine!

Kristine has worked with our family for several years. She is both competent and comfortable to be around. That makes her a good agent in this day and age
