Kristy Ward
Dolling Up the Real Estate World.
Kristy Ward combines her passion for real estate, old Hollywood, and hairstyling, giving every client the star treatment in their
home-buying journey.
For over 20 years, I've been dedicated to the beauty industry, combining my love for fashion, glamour, and style to create personalized experiences for every client I work with. As a stylist, I know that true beauty is about more than just a great cut or color—it’s about listening, understanding, and translating my client’s vision into reality. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for elevating each client’s style, I help people embrace new looks they may never have considered, all while ensuring they feel confident and radiant. I customize each experience to truly capture what makes every client unique.
In 2019, I took my eye for detail and ability to understand clients’ needs and channeled it into a new passion—real estate. I was drawn to the investment side of the business and the opportunity to help people build wealth through smart property decisions. Whether it’s a primary residence, a vacation home, or a rental property, I love guiding clients toward choices that not only create a place to enjoy but also set them up for long-term financial success. My goal is to help buyers see the true potential in every space—turning properties into both dream homes and strategic investments.
As an “introverted extrovert,” I balance my love for home life with the excitement of meeting new people and navigating the fast-paced world of real estate. Whether I’m perfecting a client’s look in the salon or handing over the keys to their next great investment, I bring the same level of dedication, care, and attention to detail—ensuring every decision feels as effortless as a sunset on Wrightsville Beach.
I am a Wrightsville Beach girl, so I know the value of coastal living firsthand. I bought my own investment property right on WB, so I understand what it takes to find the perfect spot—whether for personal enjoyment or as an income-generating asset. The beach isn’t just where I work; it’s where I unwind, catch the sunset, and soak in the easygoing, vacation-like atmosphere. My favorite local spot? Tower 7, where the energy and ocean breeze make every visit feel like a mini getaway, even on an ordinary day.
My love for beauty and history has shaped me from a young age. I've always been drawn to the 1950s—the elegance, the polished style, and the way people took pride in how they presented themselves. Much like real estate, that era was a time of expansion, with families putting down roots and building a future. That connection resonates with me today as I help my clients do the same, finding homes that align with their vision for their future and investment goals.
Real estate, much like the beauty industry, is all about understanding people—what they want, what they need, and sometimes, what they haven’t even considered yet. Kristy thrives on opening clients' eyes to possibilities they might not have thought of, whether it’s a beachfront condo that doubles as a rental or a long-term investment that lets their money work for them. Always on the move, her car is both an office and a toolbox, stocked with everything from Nest Realty signs to the essentials for a last-minute showing.
