About the Kim Devlin Team

The Kim Devlin Team is a St. Augustine real estate team at FIV Realty Co., led by Kim Devlin with Realtor Kristen Pytel. We focus on helping people relocate to St. Augustine, St. Johns County and Palm Coast, and on helping out-of-state owners and downsizers sell. We both relocated here ourselves, and we both live in the City of St. Augustine.

Kim Devlin

Real estate might seem like an unlikely passion for someone who still keeps a sailboat. Looking back, it was a natural progression.

I was born and raised in New York and built a career in corporate, customer service and entrepreneurial roles. My husband and I eventually sailed our way up to Boston and bought a house in New Hampshire, where we spent years renovating it ourselves, from major structural work to tiling and everything in between. That's when my interest in design, home projects and real estate really took off.

After several winters living aboard in St. Augustine, we sold the New Hampshire house and made St. Augustine home. Today I own a condo in the city and still live aboard part-time in Palm Coast, so I know our core markets as a resident, not a visitor.

I've been in real estate for more than 15 years, with over $130 million in career sales and more than 130 five-star Google reviews. What hasn't changed is why I do this. I treat my buyers and sellers like friends and family, I pride myself on being responsive and a problem solver, and I'd rather guide you to the best result than the most convenient one.

Away from work you'll find me with adoptable dogs, on a yoga mat, on the water, or supporting the small, local businesses that make St. Augustine feel like St. Augustine.

When she's not working with clients, Kristen can be found teaching yoga, spending time with her family, or enjoying life at the beach, living the same Florida lifestyle she helps others discover.
