For Krystyn Elek, real estate is about more than getting a deal to closing. It’s about anticipating challenges, mitigating risk, and helping clients understand their options before making one of life’s biggest financial decisions.

A Realtor® with Compass serving Newton, Mass., Brookline, Mass., and surrounding communities, Krystyn is known for a personalized, hands-on approach to residential real estate. She works with first-time homebuyers, sellers, and experienced investors, combining local market expertise, detailed communication, and thoughtful negotiation.

Her professional instincts are rooted in a lifetime of competition — notably as an NCAA champion and three-time All-American. She brings preparation, adaptability, and a team-first mentality to real estate, helping clients anticipate obstacles and navigate difficult decisions with confidence. When stressful moments inevitably arise, Krystyn has a talent for bringing ease and a little levity to the situation.

A former vice president of Boston Pride Hockey and founding member of Uplift Watertown, Krystyn is also passionate about creating more inclusive experiences in real estate, especially by bridging comfort gaps for members of the queer community navigating an often overwhelming process.

An Amherst College honors graduate with a master’s from Smith College, she brings analytical rigor, competitive drive, and a steady sense of perspective to every client relationship.
