Kristin Kagay brings a distinctly design-led perspective to Los Angeles real estate. Before entering the industry in 2022, she spent more than a decade in fashion, developing an eye for proportion, materiality, composition, and visual storytelling that now shapes the way she sees and sells homes.
Her appreciation for design extends well beyond aesthetics. Kristin is drawn to architecture with character and intention and has an ability to understand what gives a property its identity—and where there is room to make it better. When representing a home, she is closely involved in everything from early design decisions and staging to photography and marketing, creating a visual narrative that feels authentic to the property rather than following a standard formula.
That same perspective has proven valuable when working with buyers. Kristin can look past what is immediately in front of her, helping clients understand the possibilities of a space as well as the realities behind them. Her familiarity with renovation, construction, inspections, and the details that affect value allows her to connect the creative side of homeownership with the financial considerations behind the purchase.
Since launching her real estate career, Kristin’s work has grown to span the Los Angeles luxury market, with more than $40 million in sales in a single year and experience with properties ranging from $2 million to nearly $20 million. Her work spans many of Los Angeles’ most design-conscious markets, including Beverly Hills, the Hollywood Hills, Los Feliz, and neighborhoods throughout the Eastside. Working across the city has given her an understanding of how architecture, lifestyle, and value shift from one pocket of Los Angeles to the next.
Kristin has also developed a strong network within the Los Angeles real estate community, giving her clients access to properties and conversations that don't always make it to the open market. She brings an informed but down-to-earth presence to the process, making sure her clients understand what matters without making an already significant decision feel more complicated than it needs to be.
Ultimately, Kristin’s work sits at the intersection of design and real estate. She works with clients who care not only about where they live, but how they live—connecting an appreciation for beautiful, interesting homes with a clear understanding of value, opportunity, and the Los Angeles market.
