Diane was our lifeline in finding a spot for our business. After trying in multiple locations, Diane used street view in google maps to find us the perfect spot! We’re so grateful for her and so excited for our venture!!

King Capital has been excellent to work with when working to secure leases and purchases of property in my experience, over multiple years. I enjoyed working closely with Diane Kappus, Kyla Stoker, Lia Armstrong and Courtney Tinnin on multiple occasions. They are knowledgeable, personable, and work hard for you. I have also enjoyed working with Clayton King and listening to the CRE Project podcast he co-founded. I felt especially comfortable that they understood my needs and worked to problem solve continuously. They will have your best interest in mind, while being honest and persistent-- I highly recommend working with them!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Kyla Stoker as our buyers' agent, and we can't express enough how grateful we are for the exceptional service and dedication she provided throughout the entire land-buying process. What truly stood out was Kyla's ability to navigate the challenges presented by a difficult seller's agent. From the very beginning, Kyla demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. What set her apart, however, was her unwavering commitment to making this process as smooth as possible, even in the face of a difficult seller's agent. Kyla expertly managed negotiations with the seller's agent, and we were consistently impressed with her ability to remain calm and composed in challenging situations. She was a great advocate for our interests and always kept us informed and reassured, even when things became tense. Furthermore, Kyla went above and beyond in providing invaluable insights, advice, and recommendations throughout the entire process. She demonstrated a deep knowledge of the local real estate market and made sure we were well-informed. Her attention to detail was outstanding, and she was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had. In the end, with Kyla's guidance and perseverance, we were able to secure the perfect piece of residential land at a price that we were comfortable with. Her dedication and expertise truly made a difference, and we couldn't have asked for a better buyer's agent. We highly recommend Kyla to anyone in need of a real estate professional who will not only work tirelessly on your behalf but will also skillfully navigate challenging situations with poise and integrity. She is a true asset in the world of real estate, and we are thankful for the positive experience she provided us throughout this journey. Thank you, Kyla Stoker, for helping us purchase the land upon which we plan to build our dream home!
