As someone who exudes authenticity and is a known matchmaker, Chrissy Keys considers herself an “architect” of people and relationships. “I take pride in getting to know people and pairing them with they want and need,” says Chrissy, a Keller Williams agent on the Jersey Shore who entered the business in 2014. “Sometimes I have a better idea than they do about what they want and need!” That’s because, given her background in psychology and her longtime work in helping professions, Chrissy knows listening is the most important aspect of communication. Her relational skills to help match sellers with buyers and homes with their intended owners. “I love helping get people to and from where they need to be, whether they have to buy or sell.”
With studies in the field of psychology and psychiatric rehabilitation, Chrissy recalls that when she entered real estate in 2014-2015, people wondered what she was thinking. But she was at a turning point, in need of a career change that would allow her the flexibility to take care of her own well-being while also helping others. She quickly realized how transferrable her listening and relational skills were to real estate.
