About

Your Hometown Realtor!

Just a few years after graduating from the University of Central Florida in Orlando (Go Knights!), with a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Kim obtained her Florida real estate license. She crafted her marketing skills first in vacation product marketing, but ultimately, she realized that real estate was the career that would help her fulfill her life goals. Fast forwarding 30+years later, Kim still gets tremendous satisfaction from educating sellers about the market, helping them prepare their homes for sale, or overcoming obstacles to help buyers find their perfect place. She's been a Central Florida resident for over 40 years and knows the area and surrounding counties well. The thrill of a successful closing never gets old!

When she's not out selling homes, Kim enjoys travel throughout the U.S. and overseas. Closer to home she likes visiting the Orlando theme parks, cheering on the UCF Knights sports teams, reading, gardening, or just relaxing with family. She strives to give back to her community through volunteer work and is an active member of her Winter Garden church.    

Kim has served as a real estate mentor and advisor and values the camaraderie of a dynamic sales team comprised of herself and two of her closest friends. They provide each other with sales support, advice, and most of all, positive encouragement. This translates to exceptional service for all of their customers. 

Kim's Personal Mission: I pledge to be in consistent communication with my customers, keeping them fully informed throughout the entire buying or selling process. I believe that if you’re not left with an outstanding experience, I haven’t done my job. I don’t measure my own success through achievements or awards, but through the satisfaction of my treasured customers.

What Clients Are Saying

Kim Blaylock is Superb- You could not ask for a better Realtor!


Sadly my mom became sick in 2020 with COVID and has just deteriorated since then. My mom lives in Clermont Fla and we live in the Philadelphia area and NJ. I had to eventually place my mom in an assisted living facility because we are too far to care for her and she did not want to return to the cold weather in the North. So I managed her home in Kings Ridge for almost 3 years. Finally, we decided it was time to sell the home. I was at a loss for who to use as a realtor and my mom’s neighbor recommended Kim Blaylock.

I was a little hesitant because I had had a bag experience with a realtor who had been recommended in the past. But once I met Kim I felt like I was in very safe hands!

I really had no idea how amazing Kim would be! Given the distance from where my mom’s house is and where I live, it was quite a challenge to manage getting it ready to be placed on the market. Kim was incredible! She went above and beyond to help with letting cleaners into the house after I returned home. We had several issue with the HOA - we had to replace bushes- Kim went to Lowe’s and purchased bushes and was planning to plant them! (I told her that that was just too much and found a handyman to do that. She had every intention of doing that her self.

We had several issues that were unforeseen during the process and Kim dealt with these issues and got me the resources that I needed- ie Attorney referral!

Despite all the issues, Kim got the house sold at the asking price in record time. She continued to support me throughout the process of disposing of the furniture in my mom’s home. She researched and found a wonderful female owned business Bless This Mess- whose owner, Erin helped to find new homes for my mom’s piano, office furniture and beds. Kim then found a great organization The Hope Center - where they came and picked up the furniture.
Kim also let in the cleaners prior to the closing. There are not enough space here to sing the praises of Kim. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND KIM!

Start to finish a five star experience
From our first meeting I knew Kim would be the right choice. She does an amazing job at research and market analysis. She gives you candid opinions when when they may not be what you want to hear so that you are fully informed to make the right choices. There were a few hurdles along our path and at no point did I ever feel any frustration or resignation on her part, it was always "well how can we fix this?"
On top of everything else we ended up closing over twice what we thought we would. I'm not generally one to call people stupid without knowing them, but if you don't choose her to help you sell your property then you probably are.  Russell Wiggins

Phenomenal Realtor!

It's not very often that you meet a special soul, and Kim truly is a special soul!

I did not know Kim prior to the purchase of our house in Winter Garden, FL, but now I consider her one of my best friends, I consider her 'family'. My daughters and I went through, and are enduring through, a life changing event with the loss of my wife. Even after the purchase of our home, and after the passing of my wife, Kim would check in occasionally to see how we were doing and sincerely ask if there was anything she could do to help us. She was 'always' there to help with questions, and when I made the decision to sell the house in order to move back closer to friends and family, Kim was there to help weigh the pros and cons of doing so.

During the sale of my house, she helped cover so many of the details the entire way through the sale, and helped handle many of the issues that sometimes arise during the process.

You will not go wrong by choosing Kim as your realtor. She is a kind heart, a woman of class, an outstanding realtor, and a great friend!

This was our third "family" real estate transaction with Kim. We have always found Kim to be very responsive, a good communicator and very interactive with us. We like to ask alot of questions and she always took the time to make sure we understood the process and various steps along with way. During the entire sale process of our home, she was engaged and we really appreciated being able to call her at any time and get a response. Kim is highly trustworthy and I can recommend her without hesitation. If we have another real estate transaction in the future, we will definitely utilize Kim's services.

Mary and John Hogue

Kim is the most professional and knowledgeable realtor that I have ever worked with! I can't give her enough praise. She was extremely patient with our home search and helped walk us through the short sale process. We couldn't have bought our dream home with out her expertise. I highly recommend her for your home search or sale.

Jennifer and Nick Leyva

I loved working with Kim to find our first house. She is very experienced and doesn't shy away from telling you what she really thinks about a house. She helped us from the very beginning and provided all the necessary documents for us to look at before we started looking at houses, she made sure we were ready to be home owners before showing us houses.

Anthony Moraga and Jonathan Schooley

I can’t recommend Kim Blaylock enough. She has been an incredible resource in helping us find our first home. She was always honest with us and provided great insight throughout the home buying process. She never missed a beat on paperwork, scheduling inspections, obtaining information, and always followed up with all parties to ensure that everything was flowing, making the whole experience stress free. We learned so much in the short time that we spent with her. She really knows the central Florida market and her experience shows. Thank you Kim!!

James and Tara Mills

Kim is the real estate professional agent that you need working with you.Kim is very knowledgeable and always quick to inform you as to what is going on and what may transpire next. As a first time home buyer, I didn't know much about real estate. Kim made the whole process feel comfortable & without any kind of nervousness involved. A true professional with outstanding customer service.

Frank Rosado

I worked with Kim for a long time and found just the right house. Always willing to look with me even if they weren’t that nice. She knew what would pass on a VA loan and what wouldn’t. Very knowledgeable on all aspects of real estate. Glad I had her help with finding a house.

Kim was the Listing Agent for Our Home at 234 N. Lakeview Ave Winter Garden "The Bird House" Check out The Historic "Bird House" - 234 N. Lakeview Ave Winter Garden, FL

and she helped us Buy Our New Home in Winter Garden

Kim Blaylock: experienced, professional, compassionate!
After 22 years, we finally decided that we were at the time in our life that it had become too difficult for us to continue to maintain our 102 year old home in Historic Downtown Winter Garden. We knew Kim from our church, and we also knew others from our church who were very pleased with the real estate services Kim provided. We were very worried, however, that we would sell our home but not be able to find a home we could love nearly as much as our special historic home. We were also concerned about the possibility of many curiosity seekers swarming our unique home.

From the start, Kim had helpful suggestions as we prepared to list our home. She then did such an amazing job with our listing that the Orlando Weekly magazine wrote an article about our house based on her listing, which included all 100 photos Kim included in the listing. A video included in the listing made it possible for anyone to take a video walkthrough of our entire home. Our home went under contract the very first weekend on the market.

Kim also found the perfect new home for us only three miles away. There were many issues along the way, none of which could have been anticipated, but Kim remained calm and professional through it all. She never gave up and always helped find the solution to smooth out the path from listing to both closings. We can’t say enough great things about Kim, from her knowledge of the real estate market in our area to her professional, calm manner in handling any issues that come up along the way, and constant communication. Thanks so very much, Kim, for guiding us through to our new home! While it was very difficult for us to sell the home we loved, we are more than thrilled with our new home!

Kim has a history...
Kim Blaylock has a history of thinking outside the realm of normal realtors. Her insightfulness and honesty are a valued asset in today's cutthroat real estate world. Everyone wants you to let them sell your home. But can you 'really' trust them to make the correct decisions for you? Kim has been involved in both ends of our last two homes purchases and sales. Her advice and guidance have led to better, happier living. And that what we all really want isn't it?   Jimm and Julie Witherell, Orlando, FL

Kim Blaylock is a fabulous realtor!

Working with Kim to sell our townhome was a great experience! She walked us through the entire process, hired a photographer to take pictures for the listing, and was always available for any questions we had. Kim is extremely knowledgeable and hands on. I highly recommend her!

Anne & Hector Conde

This was our 2nd time working with Kim in our home buying/selling process. She is the absolute best and both experiences were great. She is so patient, responsive and extremely knowledgable. She always worked with our schedules even when we needed her last minute. Kim made a complicated process way less stressful for us and went above and beyond me make sure we had everything taken care of. We would definitely recommend Kim to anyone who is looking for a great realtor!

IF THERE WAS A POSSIBILITY TO GIVE 10 MILLION STARS, I WOULD! WE’VE HAD A NOT SO PLEASANT EXPERIENCE WITH OUR PREVIOUS REALTOR AND WERE AT THE POINT OF GIVING UP. BUT THROUGH TRUSTED SOURCES WE’VE BEEN INTRODUCED TO KIM. HER KNOWLEDGE, PATIENCE, EXPERIENCE AND SENSE OF HUMOR MADE US FEEL SAFE, STABLE AND IN GREAT HANDS. ALTHOUGH WE’VE PICKED THE WORST TIME TO BUY A HOUSE (SELLER’S MARKET, INTEREST RATES SKY HIGH) KIM CAME IN LIKE A TOTAL PRO! IN A MATTER OF LESS THAN 2 MONTHS WE ARE HOME OWNERS AND COULDN’T BE HAPPIER. EVEN THOUGH IT IS A TOUGH MARKET, WE’VE SEEN PLENTY OF HOUSES AT ANY GIVEN TIME OF DAY AND NIGHT. KIM WORKED WITH OUR HECTIC SCHEDULE AND WAS INSTRUMENTAL BEHIND THE SCENES. KIM’S GREATEST FEATURES ARE HER HONESTY AND HER EXPERIENCE! WALKING INTO MULTITUDE OF PROPERTIES WITHOUT ANY KNOWLEDGE ON OUR PART, KIM HAS SHOWN US PROS & CONS ON EACH AND EVERYONE OF THEM, POINTED OUT THE POSSIBILITIES AND GAVE OPTIONS. NEVER DID WE EVER HAVE ANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS, DOUBTS OR UNCERTAINTIES. WORDS CAN NOT DESCRIBE THE GRATITUDE AND ADMIRATION WE HAVE FOR HER. WHEN “SHOPPING” FOR A REALTOR, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN KIM BLAYLOCK!

Ekaterina Kirpicheva & Marc Thomas

As newcomers to the area, Kim's local knowledge and recommendations were invaluable. She was extremely responsive and provided us with indepth information about Florida specific home issues (i.e. obtaining a wind mitigation inspection to get a reduced insurance rate). Her longstanding relationships with service providers enabled us schedule the home inspection with ease and she referred us to an excellent mortgage broker. Kim worked tirelessly to ensure that our interests were protected and made sure that we were comfortable with every aspect of our home purchase. She made us feel like we were her only client - she responded to all of our questions quickly and thoroughly. We could not have asked for a better agent. We highly recommend Kim.

Michelle Chapman and Jim Elliott

Kim did a wonderful job helping us both sell and buy our homes - all at the same time! She kept us on track with everything we needed to do made the whole process so easy. We were even able to close on everything sooner than originally planned. I highly recommend Kim to anyone looking to buy or sell (or both)!

Nicole and Rich Smith

Kim was wonderful to work with! She was professional, personable and very knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to provide excellent service to us. She always kept us informed of the process and any changes/updates. I would also like to add that Kim was very punctual and was never late to an appointment with us, which is a big deal to me!! We would highly recommend Kim as a realtor.

Joy and David Wells

To be able to work with Kim Blaylock was an extremely positive experience. She is a very professional and attentive to customers needs. Kim did a great job quickly assessing my husband's and my desires and showing us homes with different options to meet them. This greatly eased the stress involved in houshunting on an extraordinarily tight schedule. She is warm and friendly and knows her product very well. She is punctual and follows up with every case. She has become not just a realtor, but a friend, throughout the house hunting and closure experience. I am sure we will continue our friendship long after our business relationship is complete!

Joseph Maxon

I’ve known Ms. Blaylock for over 10 years now, and during that time I’ve used her expertise and services in listing and selling my home in record time. Her dedication to her clients is second to none, and she’s always available to answer any questions even after the sale.

In addition
 since the sale of my home I’ve also referred Ms. Blaylock to some of my friends and associates during 2012 & 2013 and again she came through with flying colors by successfully helping them in the sale of their homes and properties.

Ms. Blaylock is a trusted, dependable and extremely knowledgeable real estate professional that will work for ALL her clients above and beyond to everyone’s satisfaction
