Monument Global Estates

At Monument Global Estates, we lead with integrity and always place our client's interests as our first priority. Our founder, Kristina Novak, possesses a background in lending and has worked in the real estate industry for over 35 years, accumulating a wealth of experience that she leverages to help ensure your long-term success. In 2021, Kristina was named the #1 agent at her former agency and the #1 Solo Agent for Sales in Santa Ynez. She has closed hundreds of transactions over her career, and her knowledge and negotiation skills are invaluable. Utilizing her far-reaching network, Kristina's access to off-market opportunities is priceless.

Monument and Kristina go all out when marketing your property, including but not limited to using great photographers, video, 3D digital floor plans, interactive matterport, virtual staging when needed, M3 Digital Marketing (your property shows up on prospective buyers’ phones when they do searches), print ads as well as the GLOBAL online sites and three different MLSs, so the listing gets seen by as many prospective buyers as possible. Contact Kristina to go over a marketing strategy for your property.

Following the core values of hard work, professionalism, fairness, and integrity, MONUMENT goes above and beyond for our clients because we genuinely care about your real estate goals, whether selling your existing home or looking to purchase a new home. We take the time to understand you on a deeper level and form a plan to accomplish your dreams. Throughout the journey, we remain in consistent communication keeping you in the loop with every step. While we are approachable, authentic, and fun, we still go to bat for you, employing our expert-level negotiation skills, so all parties involved are satisfied. We value genuine human connections and form long-lasting friendships with many of our clients.

Kristina is so very proud of her past client’s testimonials, as she feels the biggest reward is seeing her clients happy and satisfied.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

There’s so much wrapped up in a real estate transaction. It can be clunky, emotional and stressful. And that’s even before a move takes place.

Deeply knowledgeable about her market and the craft of navigating these transactions, Kristina Novak was a consummate guide through the ups and downs of a...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Queen of the Valley, Kristina's knowledge of the Santa Ynez Valley was so comforting, as I knew so little of the area. I had an immediate connection with her.

Best agent in the Santa Ynez valley! Kristina is thorough, ethical, knowledgeable and professional. She always has a 'can do' attitude and in the most tense and frustrating situations, Kristina always keeps her cool! I found her to be outstanding, amazing and remarkable. I buy and sell a lot of real estates and Kristina is truly one of the very best REALTOR I've ever worked with, bar none!

— PEG C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My husband and I were looking for our first horse property and decided that Santa Ynez was the place for us to relocate to. Kristina is a very skilled agent and we did find our dream property with her but I want to share a vignette that really illustrates the kind of person she is. We arrived to our new property and the hay delivery that was supposed to happen didn't and I was left on a holiday with 5 hu...
