Kristen Jock

Kristen Jock, Lic. Associate R.E. Broker Serving NYC, the Hudson Valley, and the Catskills With over 15 years of experience in New York City real estate and a deep love for the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley and Catskills, Kristen Jock offers a uniquely comprehensive perspective to buyers, sellers, and investors navigating both urban and upstate markets.

Kristen began her career in NYC, specializing in multifamily sales and representing clients across residential and commercial transactions throughout Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. Her strategic approach, strong negotiation skills, and calm, intuitive presence quickly earned her industry recognition—including being named one of NRT’s Top 1000 Agents nationwide. Now living in the Hudson Valley and part of the dynamic Upstate Curious Team at Compass, Kristen brings that same level of expertise to clients seeking more space, a second home, or a lifestyle change. She understands the nuances of both markets and is especially skilled at guiding those making the leap from city to country life.

Known for her honesty, persistence, and empathy, Kristen sees herself as a trusted advisor first and foremost. Her background in psychology helps her meet clients where they are—whether that means navigating the stress of a first-time purchase or strategizing a complex sale. Outside of real estate, Kristen is an avid rock climber, trail runner, and hiker—passions that have deepened her connection to the region and the communities she serves. Whether you're looking for a brownstone in Brooklyn or a cabin in the Catskills, Kristen brings a grounded, full-picture approach to helping you find your place.
