CLIENTS SUCCESS STORIES
FIVE STAR REVIEWS
Chrissy and Diane are not just realtors; they are real estate magicians! We were astounded when they sold our house in Sea Cliff in less than a week, and to top it off, for over asking price. Their expertise, personal connection, and profound understanding of the local market made our selling experience an absolute breeze.
From the moment we engaged Chrissy and Diane, we knew we were in capable hands. Their years of experience shone through as they meticulously crafted a strategy tailored to our property and the Sea Cliff market. Their insights were invaluable, and their guidance instilled us with confidence every step of the way.
What truly set Chrissy and Diane apart was their personal touch. They took the time to understand our needs, concerns, and goals, treating us not just as clients, but as valued partners in the selling process. Their genuine care and dedication were palpable, making the entire experience not only efficient but also enjoyable.
Moreover, Chrissy and Diane’s understanding of the Sea Cliff market was unparalleled. They knew precisely how to position our property to attract the right buyers, and their marketing prowess ensured maximum exposure. The result? Multiple offers within days, exceeding our expectations in every regard.
In conclusion, Chrissy and Diane are the epitome of excellence in real estate. If you’re looking for realtors who combine experience, personal connection, and market understanding to deliver outstanding results, look no further. Chrissy and Diane will not only meet but exceed your expectations, making the selling process easy, painless, and incredibly rewarding.
-Carol & George J.
Chrissy and Diane did a fantastic job when I decided to sell my condo. They make a genuine and easy to work with team. They took care of everything: remodeling at the best price (they know the best and cost efficient contractors), marketing and selling the place. I had several offers within 48 hours of open house. We sold above asking price in record time. Not only are Chrissy and Diane a delightful team, they complement each other. Nobody else has such expertise, knowledge and professionalism. I interviewed several agents when I got started. They blew me away and did not disappoint once. Best real estate team in OC! I would recommend Chrissy and Diane in a heartbeat!
-Francois G.
I am the trustee of an estate living on the east coast and recently engaged Diane and Chrissy to sell a house in Huntington Beach. I can say they were hands down the best real estate agents I have ever worked with. The house needed some work to prep it for sale, and Chrissy and Diane immediately got to work on repairs, painting and flooring with contractors who charged a reasonable price, and then expertly staging, keeping me informed and consulting with me at every step of the process and making it almost seamless for me -- very important given I was remote time ones away, and both smart, experienced, honest, responsive, sensitive and overall, very pleasant to work with. They then priced and marketed the house appropriately for the market. We ended up having multiple bids and sold at well above the asking price. I’d highly recommend Chrissy and Diane to anyone looking to sell a home.
-Mark C.
Diane and Chrissy met with us in late January and I’d say we saw 5-6 homes between then and early March. Then in March we found THE HOME. We saw it on a Sunday, put an offer in on a Monday, and then as had been the case for 2 years, assumed it would just be onto the next one. Hours later, Diane and Chrissy confirmed our offer was selected. Among 10+ others. And the FIRST OFFER we made with Diane and Chrissy as our realtors. Unreal, but when you choose Diane and Chrissy at Seven Gables, it is REAL. Beyond their first-class expertise in the industry, the bonuses that you get when choosing to work with this team are endless. They have an incredible network of skilled contractors/trades in any craft you’d need (electrical, plumbing, construction, expansion, remodel). We are moved in, and so excited to continue to work with Diane on designs/improvements for renovations. On top of that, we are just now getting ready to list our previous home for sale, and Diane and Chrissy have helped with recommendations/referrals for moving, repairs, staging, professional photography and we are looking forward to what comes of the Open House. Can’t say enough about these two...looking anywhere else for realtors would be a waste of time... don’t make our mistake! This is a relationship we are excited to maintain far beyond the closing of escrow!.

DRE #02149595
I’m Chrissy Reilly, a seasoned real estate agent with the award-winning brokerage Seven Gables Real Estate, based in Orange County, CA. I’ve made it my mission to turn dreams of home ownership into tangible realities.
A true California native, I started my journey in San Diego, where I immersed myself in the fascinating world of biochemistry and cell biology at UCSD. After working in the emergency department for three years, I faced challenges head-on and worked well under pressure. Armed with knowledge and a passion for analysis, I ventured into entrepreneurship and real estate investment, turning ideas into successful ventures.
I’ve come to believe that real estate is not just about transactions; it’s a powerful tool for building generational wealth. As a homeowner in the heart of Huntington Beach with my loving husband and our precious one-year-old daughter, I’ve experienced firsthand the transformative power of finding the perfect home.
My approach to real estate goes beyond the conventional. It’s about fostering connections and creating lifelong relationships with clients. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a seasoned investor, or someone in between, I’m here to guide you through the exciting journey of finding your dream home.
I proudly received the Rising Star Award in 2022 from Seven Gables Real Estate, a testament to my dedication and success in the real estate industry. This recognition further fuels my commitment to providing excellent service to my clients.
Data isn’t just numbers for me; it’s a story waiting to be told. I love delving into market trends and presenting you with the insights you need to make informed decisions. But it’s not just about finding a home; it’s about selling one too. With my marketing and advertising skills, impeccable communication and client service, rest assured I’ll sell your home for top dollar.
Join me in this adventure, where real estate becomes not just an investment but a legacy. Together, let’s turn the key to a brighter, wealthier future. I can’t wait to be a part of your story!
My name is Diane Kutinsky and I am a proud Orange County native. Having grown up in Villa Park, I’ve called Huntington Beach home for the past thirty-one years, enjoying all that SoCal has to offer with my husband and four children. My passion for design led me to Brooks College for Interior Design and later to USC for Architectural Design. For over twenty-five years, I’ve helped sellers and buyers upgrade their homes to ensure the best possible prices.
With my deep knowledge of interior design and home staging, I work with each client to prepare their home for the best possible sale. By offering complimentary design services, I help by designing and managing home upgrades that will yield a higher sale price once the home hits the market.
Suggesting valuable updates, coordinating with contractors, procuring discounts on home renovation materials, staging a home to perfection–I do it all! Along with my knowledge of interior design, I take care of all aspects of project management so you can focus on finding your new home. My ultimate goal is to save money while preparing houses for the market, leveraging my extensive understanding of market trends to produce big results. My real estate and design background gives me a leading edge in representing clients, allowing buyers to envision their dream homes and sellers to obtain the highest possible prices.
Throughout my career I’ve served a host of diverse clients, including celebrities, professionals, and investors, earning five-star reviews for my exemplary service. I have earned a Chairman’s Circle Award and President’s Circle Award, placing me in the top 5% of Realtors® nationwide.
Beyond real estate, I’m passionate about community service, having raised funds for schools, supported pediatric cancer initiatives, sent gift boxes to our troops, and led Girl Scout troops for fifteen years. I have been recognized with a GOLD Award for community service from President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama. I approach every real estate transaction with the same zeal, honesty, and integrity that I show to my community. Trust me as your real estate agent in Southern California, whether you’re buying or selling your home.
