John and Kristen are a dynamic relationship-driven team. They are Marin and Sonoma county natives with over 55+ years of combined experience in the business. Their longevity in the local market, down-to-earth style and winning attitude generates trust with the people they serve.  

It all started in 2014 after they closed a transaction together in San Rafael. John was the listing agent and Kristen represented the buyers. John and Kristen (aka JB and KP) found their style and values complimented each other. Shortly thereafter, they joined forces and formed Brannan Palmer Group. Fusing a boutique business style with the largest real estate company in the world has proven to be an unbeatable combo.  

Over the years they have nurtured and developed relationships with local experts, which became the catalyst for Brannan Palmer Group to be a Hub and Resource as it pertains to many facets of real estate including the buy-sell-1031 exchange and property management. John and Kristen are proud to be designated SRES (Senior Real Estate Specialists) serving the active adult "55+ community" helping determine if it's time to resize, keep as investment or stay-in-place.

What Clients Are Saying

"Working with John Brannan to find our new home was such a pleasure. He was recommended to us by a friend and we were not disappointed. John was patient, and honestly I lost track of how many homes we looked at while he worked with us. As we viewed various possibilities, John not only agreed with many of our concerns or possible problems we sometimes found, he even came up with his own concerns! Never once did we feel pushed into something that just wouldn’t work for us. John is professional, follows through quickly with what he says he will do, and most of all related to us like a good friend. A refreshing combination in a world full of hype and hard selling. We highly recommend John and his team."

"I am happy to provide a reference for Kristen Palmer as she is a stellar real estate agent. I met Kristen at an open house in March 2019 and she patiently worked with me until I found the home I wanted to buy in October of 2020. She made sure I had my ducks in a row with my lender and was efficient in getting all the paperwork needed to the right people at the right time. All inspections were set up in record speed and the process couldn’t have moved more smoothly. She is a knowledgeable and fun person to spend time with and I always enjoyed our outings together. She is not judgmental and I never felt badly about saying no to a place that did check many of my boxes but wasn’t quite right. Her partner, John Brannan, also worked closely with us during the close of my new home and getting my former home ready for sale and marketed. He is a wealth of information on the workings of a home, repairs needed and both Kristen and John have many good contacts and resources to help. Both Kristen and John were such kind and delightful people to work with during a stressful time (bought and sold in the same month during the pandemic). They bent over backwards to make sure everything stayed on track with a calm demeanor and a true caring of what was best for me. I highly recommend them both."
