As a John L. Scott broker, my mission is transactional excellence and client satisfaction. That means I work tirelessly to make your home buying or selling process as efficient, stress-free and lucrative for you as possible.
Meet Kathy
John L. Scott Silverdale’s Kathy Berndtson brings more than 12 years of experience to her role as a broker. Before becoming a broker, she was in sales and marketing, and worked for Nestlé USA for 10 years. Kathy serves a variety of clients in Kitsap, Mason, Jefferson and parts of Pierce County.
Kathy’s number one priority is her clients, and she works around the clock to ensure her clients’ happiness and success. She is dedicated to hands-on customer service, and helps clients with everything they need in order to buy or sell.
To give back, Kathy donates to the humane society and also started a program through the Kitsap County Association of Realtors called “Making Change for Pets.” Additionally, she donates a portion of her commissions to support programs for children’s hospitals to purchase equipment or provide services they need. In her spare time, Kathy is also involved with a women’s sorority that gives back to the community in a different way each year.
When she’s not working, Kathy enjoys boating, cooking and spending time with her grandchildren. She’s a self-proclaimed “foodie,” and also loves coffee and all kinds of animals.
Poulsbo
Sitting on the north end of Kitsap Peninsula and surrounded by the water of Liberty Bay, Poulsbo is known as The Viking City due to the number of Scandinavian folks who fell in love with the area because it reminded them of the fjords of Norway. That's also where the nickname Little Norway came from. In fact, up until World War II, most Poulsbo residents spoke Norwegian as their primary language. When work started on the Puget Sound naval shipyards in nearby Bremerton, English was spoken more and more. That heritage lives on. The Norseman, a 15 foot tall statue, sits at the corner of Viking Avenue and Lindvig way. Downtown Poulsbo retains the Scandinavian theme, complete with bakeries gift shops and dining that all hearken back to the old country. Poulsbo bread which you could once only get in the town itself is now available throughout the U.S. and brings fans to the city to see its origins. But it's the modern day amenities that make Poulsbo a great place to live. Our parks and recreation system provides outdoor spaces and activities year round. A boardwalk along with Liberty Bay and three marinas make waterfront views and boating adventures easy to come by. And great schools and including a satellite campus of Olympic community college serve the families the call Poulsbo home. If you'd like to learn more about Poulsbo, let us know. We'd love to show you around and help you find your perfect home.
Reviews
“In the last nine years, Kathy has been our realtor to buy our current home, and selling two homes. She has gone out of her way to ensure we got the best price when selling, as well as buying! Her knowledge of the real estate market, and all of the legalities is vast! We are relocating now to the Midwest and wish we could take her with us! We only hope we can find a realtor to work with there that is of her caliber. We highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling that wants the best!”

“In the time I've lived in Washington, Kathy she has helped me purchase three different homes, two of which were VERY complicated short sales that took months of negotiations. Kathy has also listed and sold two of my homes. She is currently assisting me with the purchase of my first rental property. Kathy is completely knowledgeable about the entire buying and selling process. She has answered every question I have had promptly. In my opinion she is the best agent out there!”

“We were lucky to have run into Kathy. She helped ease the burden on our difficult purchase. We had a contingency and Kathy's knowledge of these types of agreements help on many occasions during the buying of our new house while selling ours.”
