Finding the right realtor is like making a new best friend. He or she will listen, encourage your dreams, and tell you when you need to adjust your thinking. In Lakeland, we are blessed to have incredible individuals and teams to guide you through some of the most significant decisions in your life. Here are a trio of Keller Williams realtors/teams to consider the next time you are buying or selling. 


Darren and Tina Moreno

Darren and Tina Moreno are a husband and wife real estate team who strive to provide the highest level of service and communication while helping their clients achieve their real estate goals.

With a combined 28 years of real estate experience, the Morenos have been through it all, from the hot market of 2020 through 2022 to not so hot market and trying times of 2007 that started the housing crisis. With all that experience they know what it takes to help you accomplish your real estate goals.

Darren and Tina's goal is to build clients for life and ensure referrals by providing the best real estate experience possible and no matter how difficult the deal, they strive each and every time for a win-win situation.

When Tina and Darren are not doing real estate, they are chasing around their highly energetic 5-year-old son, TJ, as well as spending  quality time with their obedient labradoodle, Bo,  and their not-so-obedient mini goldendoodle, Rusty. The Moreno's are ready to help you purchase a home or by creating a new story as you sell your home, and move on with new goals, opportunities and dreams.

Krystal Sayers

My name is Krystal Sayers and I've been servicing the Central Florida real estate market for more than seven years. I've centered my career around excellent customer service and a firm commitment to working hard, listening, and following through. I provide high quality, dedicated service to build meaningful relationships with my clients and, more importantly, I maintain those relationships through honesty and effective communication. 

No transaction is ever more important than the person making it, so protecting my clients, their interests and our relationship is my top priority. These values have driven me to become a top producer at the #1 brokerage in Lakeland—Keller Williams.

I love Lakeland and enjoy all our beautiful city has to offer. After almost 10 years here, I couldn't imagine raising my girls anywhere else. You can often find us walking around Lake Mirror, having coffee downtown, hiking at Circle B Bar, or wandering our newest favorite Lakeland destination, Bonnet Springs Park.

As a Lakeland local and a seasoned real estate professional I truly understand and appreciate the market here. We have a little bit of everything: the comfort and security of suburban life, the fun and convenience of downtown living, the peace and freedom of the country; there really is something for every lifestyle. My love of Lakeland provides me the enthusiasm and desire to help make my home your home.

Give me a call, send me a text, or email me any time. I would love to help you achieve your real estate goals!

5425 Kings Mont Ct - COMING SOON $799,000

4,200 SQUARE FEET | BUILT IN 1980 | SPACIOUS MASTER BATH | WATER FEATURES

5425 Kings Mont Court of Lakeland, Florida is a truly one-of-a-kind Tudor style home. Often referred to by neighbors and friends as “The Castle House,” this house was the first built in its South Lakeland community. As such, the two streets in this neighborhood were named with a nod to the royal estate: Kings Mont Court and Kings Mont Drive. If you love the architecture and design of Lakeland’s Cob and Pen, then you will love the Castle House.

It was built in 1980, but has had just two owners in its 43 years. The grand turret is a focal point of the home’s exterior and the first thing you will see upon walking in the front door. An oversized rounded staircase winds up to the second story which looks over into the foyer leaving the inside of the window-lined turret open. 

The 4,200 square foot home has four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. The oversized second-story master suite includes a large bedroom with front balcony, a hallway with windows that look down into the TV room below, an updated spacious master bathroom and a bonus room that’s currently used as an office. Downstairs, there's an open concept space with plenty of extra room. Whether you prefer to have a formal dining and living space or playroom or craft rooms, there’s room for it all. 

The grand wood-burning fireplace is an open concept that connects the TV room to the spacious formal living room.  The open concept kitchen overlooks the TV room and a large bonus space that is currently set up as a game room complete with a card table, bumper pool, full-sized pool table and a bar area. This area was added on in 2003, but includes detailed molding that fits the style of the home. Also added in 2003 is a large wrap-around pool complete with water features, a sun ledge, hot tub, and waterfall with grotto. Despite the large home and screened-in pool, the property which is situated on nearly half an acre, still has room for a fenced in backyard, playground area, basketball court and sitting area. This home is sure to attract interest when it becomes available for purchase this Summer. Keep an eye out for it to hit the market or reach out to the listing agent, JP Phillips, for more details.
