Welcome back to another episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast! Today, I have Kristin Lunsford on the podcast.  Kristin was born in Jacksonville, Florida, then moved to the Atlanta, Georgia area when she was 10 years old as her father became pastor at a church there.  After graduating from college with her master's degree in education, she taught middle school for ten years in Georgia and Florida.  She met her husband in Atlanta and they got engaged a year later at the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.  They went on to have two children, a boy and a girl.  Kristin earned her doctorate degree while being a stay-at-home mom with her two children. In 2016, she and her husband decided to move to Florida and expand their pest control and home inspection companies that at the time, they co-owned with her husband's brother. 

 

Fast-forward a few years, they sold the Georgia pest control company (around 100 total team members at that time) a year earlier, and on January 1, 2020, she and her husband owned outright the home inspection and pest control companies in Florida.  Her husband had been recruiting her for years to join the business, now that time had come.  Kristin and her husband, Brian, own LunsPro Inspections in Florida, Kingfish Pest Control, and Jacksonville Real Producers.
