Find and Compare the Best Real Estate Agents in Kirkwood, DE

I began my real estate career in 2003, the height of the housing market. Those days gave a false sense of the job, you’d stick a sign in the yard, & it would practically sell while you were doing it. By 2007 my business was on a trajectory of success. A bad auto accident knocked me out of work for many months. My best friend (now my right hand in business) sacrificially stepped in, helping me keep my business afloat. Through PT, & many doctor’s appointments, every day a struggle. The housing bubble burst when I was getting back on my feet. I had decide, switch careers or dig deeper? I was determined to stay in the business, I educated myself on foreclosures, distressed homes & short sales. I learned all the niches at all levels to broaden my experience for clients I worked for. But mainly in those tough years, I learned to listen & understand. I absorbed clients' stories, made it personal to help in any way I could. My business is about affecting lives & I do not take that lightly.

My priority is to provide quality service to both sellers and buyers.

Hi, I’m Allison Layton, a Delaware real estate agent who’s passionate about helping people move into the next chapter of their lives. I’ve built my business on strong communication, creative marketing, and genuine care for my clients — because selling or buying a home isn’t just a transaction, it’s a major life moment. I’m known for stepping in and successfully selling homes that sat on the market with other agents, thanks to a mix of strategy, presentation, and persistence. Whether it’s crafting eye-catching social media campaigns, hosting attention-grabbing open houses, or negotiating for the best outcome, I go all in for my clients. As a former teacher turned agent, I bring patience, organization, and heart into everything I do. My goal is simple — to make the process smooth, stress-free, and maybe even a little fun along the way. If you’re thinking about making a move, I’d love to be the agent who helps you make it happen.
