Michelle was so easy to work with.
She explained the process where it was easy to understand. She went above and beyond to help get my property sold. I highly recommend her services if you have a property to sell.
We had the best experience working with Kristy.
She helped my husband and me find the perfect piece of land—honestly, we couldn’t have done it without her.

I would recommend Kristy to anyone buying a house but ESPECIALLY a first time home buyer.

You will be grateful to have her on your team as you sell your current home or find your next one. I could not be happier, and highly recommend Kristy.
Michelle has gone above and beyond representing me in buying my first home.
She scheduled numerous inspections and obtained quotes for all repairs that we requested from the sellers. She was present for inspections which I did not expect but greatly appreciated. The sellers have been incredibly difficult and dishonest but Michelle has dealt with them gracefully. She stayed on top of repairs before closing and after discovering the wrong size hvac was installed she has continued to work with the seller to make it right on my behalf even after closing. I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone buying or selling a home in Moore County! She is trustworthy, honest, easy to communicate with, knowledgeable, and proactive.
Kristy is a fantastic Real Estate Agent!
She was never late or unresponsive, she worked day and night to make sure our closing went well and she is just all around fun to be with. We HIGHLY Recommend Kristy Rooney to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
Cannot say enough about Michelle Palladino!
She came highly recommended and never ever disappointed. Michelle definitely knows her stuff and is an expert at sharing her knowledge, opinions, and recommendations in a very professional, honest, and caring manner. She literally held our hands and answered all our questions about selling our property every step of the way, and provided detailed service above and beyond anything I expected. Even though my part of the transaction was long distance (I live thousands of miles away from my NC home), working with Michelle was like having a best friend in my corner, and I've not actually met her in person! (She was always available to me via phone, text and email and I thoroughly enjoyed our interactions.) Michelle earns the highest kudos from me and I would highly recommend her expert, personal services to anyone buying or selling property. She is a lovely, kind, and very personable lady. Michelle Palladino works through NextHome in the Pines and her service is NextLevel awesome!
I could not have been more satisfied with working with Kristy on the sale of my house.
She was knowledgeable, easily accessible, and was a firm advocate for my needs as a seller. Kristy made the process of selling my house, not only quick, but incredibly easy. She went above and beyond and worked tirelessly. If you’re looking to buy or sell your house, you can’t find a better person to have in your corner than my friend, Kristy Rooney!
Kristy is an excellent real estate agent.
She provided prompt, organized, and professional service at each step of the home buying process. Kristy is knowledgeable about the local area and consistently goes above and beyond to be available. She was recommended to us, and we will be recommending her to others.
Michelle has helped us buy two houses and and sell three.
One of those sales and purchases was done on my own while my husband was deployed. Michelle was so helpful and kept me on track through the stress of managing a sale and purchase on my own. More recently, by following her suggestions and recommendations we were able to sell our house in three days with a full-price offer. She has always negotiated the best deal possible for us. We wouldn't consider working with anyone else.
Kristy was the best!
! She held my hand and a paintbrush to get my home of 18 yrs ready to sell and with her recommendations it sold FAST!! When I had a question she had an answer no matter what time I called she picked up the phone or called back quickly. I’ll be using her to buy a house as well. The process was so smooth and headache free!
Michelle did a great job and she was our agent twice.
We found Michelle to be very professional, knowledgeable and efficient. Both times, she was able to resolve any roadblocks in a non-confrontational manner. We definitely recommend Michelle for your next real-estate transaction.
While I may be new to the real estate field, I am blown away by Kristy's help and performance.
As a relatively new member of the Army, with a hectic schedule, Kristy was always willing to assist in finding a home - for months on end. Regardless of when I would reach out to her to schedule a showing, put in an offer, or simply ask a question, she would always respond in a timely manner. She always had answers to my questions and offered suggestions that helped me out in the end. She fought for me during offers, "behind the scenes" during closing, talking with appraisers and the seller's agent, having repairs done, scheduling appointments, and much more. She made the home buying process a breeze and I will definitely work with her come time to sell, rent, or buy another house. I highly recommed her if you need someone extremely capable and a top performer in their field!
Kristy did an amazing job selling our home for us.
We live out of state and was not there take care of things. Kristy was very responsive and kept us informed on everything. She had showings for our home within 24 hours of listing it and we accepted an offer within a week. Kristy assisted us in completing the paperwork and provided an attorney to represent us. I would highly recommend if you are buying or selling that you contact Kristy to be your agent.
Kristy’s knowledge, professionalism, and hard work are superior to any I’ve ever seen.
She was able to get my family the perfect home in an incredibly difficult market. She made difficult work look easy and go smooth, even in unforeseen occurrences.
Michelle is awesome!
I felt like she was truly on our side throughout the whole process. She is speedy, responsive, smart, and provided us with great advice, suggestions, and solutions. Not only did she invest a significant amount of time into helping us (even though we were buying an inexpensive piece of land and not a giant house), she also treated us like we were her only clients, though I'm sure that could not have possibly been the case.
Michelle kept me on track getting my home and farm prepared to place on the market this past year.
Her advise was spot on, so that we were ready to go when it came time to list the property. When things did happen as fast as we had hoped, she helped identify the issue keeping us from getting realistic offers, and when we made that minor coarse correction, we were under contract with a fair offer the next day. She stayed on top of the process though to the end, so the closing went smoothly. I am very happy with the work and advice from Michelle, I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a good, professional real estate agent.
When we were looking for a rental in Moore county Kristy was amazing in helping us so when it became time to buy our first home Kristy was our go to choice.
Without her it would have been a very hectic process. She was extremely responsive and on top of the ball both in finding our dream home and dealing with sellers agent. She went to bat for us multiple times to ensure a smooth process that frankly would have fallen through if it wasn't for her. Her contacts are definitely a value add when you're trying to get something done on the last day of due diligence. Don't plan on buying again but if I did I would definitely go with her!!
Kristy was phenomenal every step of the way.
She was recommended by a friend who has purchased a few homes with her and I can say without a doubt if I sell or purchase another home in the area she will be the only realtor I want to work with. She was always available and she gave great recommendations to make our offers competitive in this crazy market. We only lost out on one home before closing on our dream home. I never had to worry about timelines or inspections. She made the process of purchasing our first home as a family stress free.
Kristy did an outstanding job as our realtor and we highly recommend her.
We put our house on the market while out of state, which we expected would make the selling process difficult for us. Kristy, however, took care of every aspect of getting our home ready for sale. She definitely went above and beyond for us by acting as an intermediary with our property management company, recommending and implementing improvements to the home and landscape, and keeping us informed through the entire selling process. She was always available to us if we had any questions. She inspired our full confidence, and we trusted her judgement completely. She always advocated on our behalf and in our best interest. She is intelligent, professional, kind, and an amazing realtor!!
I have worked with Michelle as both an agent of a property being sold, and as my agent in buying property.
She is incredibly responsive and quick to help find and provide information for both commercial and residential property. She is very professional and truly looks out for her clients.
Kristy Rooney was the best realtor I’ve ever worked with and I’ve worked with many.
She made the process simple and stress free as she worked hard to represent our needs. I would recommend her to anyone!
I couldn’t be happier!
Kristy was right there with me through the highs and lows that come with finding just the right home. But Kristy did exactly just that and helped me to own my first home! Kristy provided all the recommendations that I needed as a first time home buyer and was so patient with me when going through the process. She is truly there for you from the beginning to finish and even past the purchase.
Kristy was amazing!
This market is hard for buyers right now and not only did she get us the perfect house in the perfect location, but she made it happen in two months! We were working with an inexperienced sellers agent and frustrating sellers who almost caused the transaction to stop, but Kristy’s experience and professionalism saved the day and made our closing happen against the odds. I highly recommend using Kristy, especially in this competitive market where a seasoned agent like Kristy is essential.
Kristy Rooney was our home sale representative.
She was amazing. She was personable, very knowledgeable, and always available for any questions we had. She made our home selling journey a pleasure and worry free. I would highly recommend Kristy Rooney for all your home buying or selling opportunities!
It was our pleasure to work with Michelle.
She is honest, energetic and transparent... totally trustworthy. She knows her market and clients. She is definitely our "go to".
To say Kristy Rooney is awesome at what she does is an understatement.
Being new to the area and desperate to find the perfect rental house (that didn’t feel like a rental), Kristy not only helped us feel at home in a foreign town but her professionalism, attention to detail and all-around ability to get the job done are second to none. Kristy was in constant communication with us through the entire transaction, she acknowledged our concerns and made us feel like we were her most valued client and went above and beyond for us, helping us “dot the I’s and cross our T’s” in the eleventh-hour when I couldn’t make it in time to the rental office. If you’re looking for someone who will not push you into a house but will help you find the home that is the perfect fit, look no further than Kristy.
Kristy was Awesome to work With, very helpful and understanding!
Thank you for being professional and handling many tasks during our home purchase in a timely manner. We would definitely work with Kristy again on our next home purchase. :)
Michelle has worked with me on the purchase of three different properties over the last few years.
She has walked me through each property very slowly and throughly. She points out things I didn’t noticed or think of looking at. After the initial inspection, she has taken every phone call from me asking for more information and has always found the answers quickly. I can’t say enough about her professionalism and patience. She is always polite . She works very hard to satisfy me as her customer. On top of all that she is once of the nicest and kind people I have met. I have recommended her to my friends and we all agree she is one of the best realtors out there.
Kristy is one of the best agents I’ve worked with.
Her knowledge and hard work made the process smooth and stress free.
If you want a realtor who listens, represents you, advocates, knows the area very well, and truly wants you to be happy in your new home, do yourself a favor and reach out to Kristy Rooney today.
You will be grateful to have her on your team as you sell your current home or find your next one. I could not be happier, and highly recommend Kristy.
From start to finish our experience with Kristy has been a great!
There were so many helpful suggestions to allow our home to show its best for sale. She fielded the many showings, organized all our offers to purchase, presented a cohesive picture of our options and helped guide us toward the offer that best fit our needs for the sale of our property. Kristy brings experience, full knowledge of the current market, and professionalism that puts her clients at ease and full of confidence that she has their best interest at heart. We would wholeheartedly recommend Kristy Rooney to help with any of your real estate needs.
Our house buying experience was not an easy one, to say the least.
We were living in the UK and trying to buy a house in the US sight unseen. Michelle was recommended to us through a friend and we could not be happier. Michelle was clear, easy to get a hold of, had a friendly personality, and she was willing to go above and beyond to assist us. She stayed in close touch with us through closing ensuring every step of the process was done correctly. We highly recommend Michelle to anyone seeking a stellar home buying experience!
Kristy was PHENOMENAL.
I live across the country and bought a house practically sight unseen. Kristy was pivotal to my experience. She was always available to meet with inspectors, contractors, and anyone who needed access to the house. She set up all my appointments for me and made me feel very comfortable with the whole process. She had great recommendations for anything I needed (contractors, lenders, attorneys) and above all, she was very professional and extremely easy to work with. I couldn’t have been more pleased.
Kristy’s knowledge of the area, market, and process were incredible.
She performed beyond reproach in every way. She found us a great home in a difficult market and expedited everything controllable to get us in.
Kristy was nothing but helpful and responsive.
We moved cross country and answered all our questions no matter what hour it was in NC. She was kind, honest and very professional. The biggest plus of having her on our side was her wealth of knowledge and genuine care for our problems. If we return to NC she will be our realtor again.
Michelle, was our agent for our commercial real estate.
She was very professional and kept with us through all the ups and downs that real estate may entail. I would recommend her for all your real estate needs. Thank you Michelle - it was a pleasure working with you!

Michelle was amazing every step of the way.
She came highly recommend to us and now we can say the same.
10/10/2022 I am writing to share my experience of selling my condo in Pinehurst NC.
My real estate agent is Michelle Palladino super agent for NextHome In The Pines Michelle is a constant professional that is a tireless worker with years of experience and knowhow form a broad range of learned specialties. knowledge of structure, codes, geography of what the market is in the Pinehurst and surrounding areas, knowing who to call whether a roofer , electrician, layer or mover. Her depth of knowledge of the laws and contracts are peerless. For my own experience she came into my condo that looked like a typical guy place and turned itinto a show place, and I know that made the difference in getting the best price for my place. After the sale I had to go out of town and Michelle and a friend personally moved my furniture into my new home. To say that Michelle Palladino goes the extra mile is a vast understatement. So from my experience I can say to anyone who would ask if you are going to buy or sell a home, if you have Michelle by your side you will be represented by the very best agent in town.

Kristy was excellent!
Very organized and quick to respond. She showed us multiple homes virtually and in-person. Often times looking at houses on our behalf without us even asking. She was amazing getting us a home in this crazy market. Highly recommend.
Michelle is hands down the best realtor I’ve ever worked with.
I have been on both the buying end and selling end with Michelle and her continual communication, attention to detail, and passion are unparalleled. Michelle keeps you keenly aware of what is happening through every step of the buying/selling process and makes recommendations and provides critical advice necessary to a smooth transaction. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for both buying and selling needs and guarantee she will not let you down!
Michelle is the best realtor I have ever dealt with.
She honestly cared about getting the best deal possible. She also worked very hard to make sure the seller did what we asked them to do in terms of repairs and such. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in the market for a quality realtor.
Kristy went above and beyond in order to ensure our family found the perfect home.
She responded immediately to any questions or requests, walked through homes so we could tour them virtually, and always showed up early and well prepared for appointments. Kristy gave knowledgable insights when asked, and space when our family needed to discuss things internally. Kristy also provided excellent design suggestions to help us customize a home to our style. I would highly recommend Kristy to anyone interested in purchasing a new home.
Worked hard
Michelle did an excellent job in selling our property.

From listing to closing Michelle went above and beyond in the entire process of selling our property!
Communication was excellent and she made the entire experience pleasant. If you are looking to buy or sell she is the one you want-five stars!!!
