What Makes a 5-Star Real Estate Team (And Why Solo Agents Can’t Keep Up)

If you're thinking of buying or selling your home, there's one truth you should know: real estate today is a team sport and solo agents are playing catch-up.

At Team Kristen Schramme (TKS), we’ve built a five-star experience that isn’t just about closing homes.  It's about opening new chapters. While many agents work hard to juggle everything on their own, our team works smarter, to bring better service, smoother closings, and results that speak for themselves.

Here’s why clients are raving about working with a real estate team like ours:

1. You're Not Just Hiring One Agent, You’re Hiring an Entire Support System

From the moment you sign on, you’re not relying on just one person to do it all. You get:

• A dedicated listing agent to guide your strategy

• A listing coordinator to handle the details

• An in-house marketing team to showcase your home

• A transaction manager to keep your deadlines on track

• Staging and design support to make your property shine

• And yes, even a team to prep custom closing gifts when it’s time to celebrate

That’s the power of a full-service team. 

2. Faster Sales, Smoother Process, Stronger Results

Buyers today are cautious. Rates are up. Competition is high. But our sellers? They’re still winning! Here’s how:

• TKS average days on market: 19.6 vs San Antonio average: 68

• List-to-sales price ratio: 98.17% vs SABOR average: 93%

• 144 new listings this year (and growing!)

• 165+ open houses hosted, reaching serious buyers face-to-face

When it comes to negotiations and timelines, our team’s systems and expertise help you sell smarter and faster.

3. What We Do for Buyers (And Why It Makes a Difference)

For buyers, especially in today’s shifting market, navigating a home purchase can feel overwhelming. 

At Team Kristen Schramme, we turn uncertainty into confidence by pairing you with experienced agents who know San Antonio inside and out. 

With over 205 contracts written so far this year, our buyer agents are trained through weekly strategy and roleplay sessions, ensuring they’re sharp, responsive, and ready to negotiate on your behalf. 

We’re here to protect your goals and make sure no detail falls through the cracks. In fact, many of our buyers are saving $10,000 to $25,000 through our strategic negotiation, while still securing homes they love. 

4. Communication That Feels Like Family

We believe real estate isn’t just transactional, it’s emotional. That’s why clients say they feel supported every step of the way. Whether it’s a quick update, answering the big questions, or helping you breathe through a stressful moment, we’re here with real-time updates, fast answers, and kind guidance.

Our agents treat you like family because that’s how we treat each other.

5. Creative Marketing That Gets Your Home Noticed

We don’t just list homes. We market them!

With customized video, social media campaigns, paid ads, and staging services designed to stop scrolls and schedule showings.

In a world where first impressions are everything, our content is built to convert.

5. Five Stars Aren’t Requested, They’re Earned

We don’t chase reviews. We create experiences worth talking about. That’s why we’ve:

• Surpassed 600+ five-star reviews

• Launched our new campaign: Five Star Stories

• Started highlighting weekly closings with #FiveStarFridays

• Shared the real stories from the real people we’ve helped

Because at the end of the day, our reputation isn’t built on numbers, it’s built on people.

What This Looks Like for You

If You’re Selling

Expect more eyes, fewer days on market, and thousands more retained at the closing table without losing sleep over checklists and paperwork.

If You’re Buying

Leverage in negotiations, on-call pros who preview homes while you work, and weekly off-market intel so you never feel a step behind.
