The members of Team McNair bring strong marketing skills, diligent attention to detail, a vast knowledge of the real estate industry, and an honest and ethical standard to every real estate transaction. Because of the high-level of service they provide to their clients, the growth of Team McNair has come mainly from the number of referrals they receive from past clients, friends, family and acquaintances – it is a testament to their commitment to providing only the highest level of service to each and every one of their clients.

Christina has always provided impeccable service to her clients, and because of this, the volume of her business rapidly grew as she became a strong presence in the Marin real estate market. Due to this growth she knew she could not deliver her high standard of service on her own, so she expanded her business to a team, first by adding a Sales and Marketing Coordinator 11 years ago and then a Buyer’s Agent four years later. Kasey Childs-Briare and Karla Farrell fill these roles respectively, and bring the outstanding level of service Team McNair is known for to every client and transaction.
Kasey Childs-Briare was born and raised in Marin and started her real estate career at Scott McCall & Co. while attending Terra Linda High School. She continued working in real estate, property management, title and escrow throughout most of her career and recently joined Team McNair as their Marketing and Sales Coordinator, bringing her exceptional marketing, customer service and business skills to the team. In this position, Kasey provides all aspects of administration that keep the business running smoothly, such as maintaining Team McNair’s websites, researching marketing promotions, putting marketing pieces together and coordinating events. Kasey oversees the activities for all of Team McNair’s listings by preparing homes for the market, coordinating all web and print marketing and advertising, communicating with realtors who are showing properties to get feedback on the homes, creating property websites and organizing and preparing broker’s open houses and Sunday open houses. Kasey also serves as Team McNair’s Escrow Transaction Coordinator for each sale.
Karla Farrell earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and Human Development at Cal Poly, San Louis Obispo and attended graduate school at the University of San Diego where she earned a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. Karla specializes in buyers by providing them with detailed service. Initially, she meets with all buyers to complete a buyer criteria list which provides her with detailed, precise information of the buyer’s wishes. She then formats these search criteria, customizing them to meet the client’s needs. Karla personally previews homes, coordinates showing homes, and gives community overviews to prospective buyers. Upon the client’s decision to write an offer, she educates the buyer about the offer making process and the upcoming steps of escrow. She is in constant communication with the client, mortgage broker, title company and listing agent throughout escrow, is present at all inspections and provides further referrals for any additional specialists that may be needed.
