Celebrating Women’s History: The Story of Rabell Realty Group

At Rabell Realty Group, we believe in the power of persistence, innovation, and creating spaces where women can thrive. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, we want to highlight the inspiring journey of our founders, Kristen and Rebecca, who turned their vision into a reality, despite the challenges they faced.


Kristen and Rebecca’s Story: The Power of “No”

Before they started their own brokerage, Kristen and Rebecca were highly accomplished independent agents who recognized the power of collaboration early in their careers. By joining forces as a two-agent team, they amplified their success, setting the stage for an even greater impact in the real estate industry. They worked hard, developed creative marketing strategies, and built strong relationships with their clients. But despite their success, they often found themselves constrained by the limitations of the traditional brokerage model. They had big ideas, fresh approaches, and a passion for doing things differently — but were often told “no” when they tried to bring their ideas to life.

Rather than accepting the status quo, Kristen and Rebecca decided to create their own path. They understood that to truly serve their community and clients in the way they envisioned, they needed a space where creativity and innovation could flourish. And so, Rabell Realty Group was born.

Their story is a testament to the power of resilience and believing in yourself — a message that’s especially meaningful for women in any industry. Kristen and Rebecca didn’t wait for permission to pursue their dreams; they made them happen.


Kristen’s Journey: From Photojournalist to Real Estate Leader

Kristen Rabell’s story is one of deep roots, bold adventures, and unwavering determination. Born and raised in Gainesville, she is more than just a local—she’s a fourth-generation Broker with an innate passion for real estate and a lifelong devotion to her community. From an early age, she immersed herself in church, sports, and outdoor activities, forging a deep connection to the city and county that would shape both her life and career.

But Kristen’s journey to success has been anything but conventional. With a love for storytelling and a thirst for adventure, she traveled across Western Europe and Latin America as a photojournalist, capturing the essence of people, culture, and human connection. Her path later led her to Puerto Rico, where she taught English, writing, and reading—experiences that broadened her perspective on communication, relationships, and creativity. These invaluable skills now set her apart in the real estate world, allowing her to connect with clients on a profound level and craft compelling narratives around every home she represents.

Kristen’s resilience extends beyond her professional journey. As a marathoner and leukemia survivor, she knows firsthand the power of perseverance, preparation, and an unshakable belief that anything is possible. That same tenacity has been instrumental in the success of Rabell Realty Group, where she leads with passion, grit, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

Her dedication to Gainesville extends far beyond real estate. Kristen has held influential leadership and board positions in numerous organizations, including serving as President of the Gainesville Jaycees – Junior Chamber of Commerce and the Women’s Council of Realtors. She has also played key roles in United Way of North Central Florida, Business Networking International (BNI), The Gainesville Chamber of Commerce, and the Gainesville-Alachua County Association of Realtors, among others. Her leadership is not just about titles—it’s about making an impact, strengthening the community, and paving the way for others.

One of Kristen’s greatest passions is mentorship. She is deeply committed to the success of her agents, taking an active role in their professional growth. Through hands-on mentorship, personalized coaching, and in-depth training programs, she ensures that both new and experienced agents stay ahead of industry changes. She personally creates and leads mastermind sessions, educational classes, and workshops covering a wide range of real estate topics—from the latest laws and market trends to innovative marketing strategies and industry insights. By fostering an environment of continuous learning, Kristen empowers her agents to stay competitive, confident, and prepared in an ever-evolving market.

Today, Kristen proudly calls Gainesville home, where she and her partner are raising their son, Mason—a dedicated swimmer with Gator Swim Club. Whether cheering poolside, mentoring future leaders, or helping clients find their perfect home, Kristen’s love for her community shines through in everything she does.

A visionary, a trailblazer, and an unwavering advocate for expanding her knowledge—Kristen Rabell is redefining what it means to be a leader in the industry. Her journey proves that success isn’t just about selling homes; it’s about building lasting connections, elevating those around her, overcoming challenges, and leaving a legacy that inspires others to dream bigger and reach higher.


Rebecca’s Journey: From Military Base to Community Leader

Rebecca Johnson’s story is one of resilience, drive, and an unmatched ability to turn challenges into opportunities. Born on a military base in New Jersey and raised in Florida, Rebecca grew up with a strong sense of discipline, adaptability, and a deep appreciation for hard work. From a young age, she stayed active in her community through church, sports, and volunteer work. But it was in Gainesville that she discovered her true calling—building a business, creating opportunities, and guiding people through one of the most important decisions of their lives: buying and selling real estate.

Her journey in the industry began as an independent agent, where she quickly gained a reputation for her persistence, strategic thinking, and ability to turn even the toughest situations into success stories. It wasn’t long before she and Kristen joined forces, forming a dynamic partnership built on trust, ambition, and a shared vision for excellence. Today, Rebecca plays an instrumental role in the company’s continued growth and success, seamlessly balancing multiple high-level responsibilities.

As well as being the co-owner of Rabell Realty Group, Rebecca is the driving force behind day-to-day operations of their shared ownership of the Property Management company, KNR Property Management. She not only supports the brokerage, runs KNR, but also facilitates the sales of her personal clients—demonstrating an extraordinary ability to prioritize, adapt, and execute tasks with efficiency and precision. Her productivity is unmatched, and her ability to manage complex challenges while maintaining a laser focus on results sets her apart as a true leader in the industry.

What makes Rebecca truly exceptional is her sharp intellect, problem-solving mindset, and relentless pursuit of success. She has a rare talent for turning negatives into positives, finding solutions where others see obstacles, and maintaining a forward-thinking approach that fuels growth for both herself and those around her. Her tenacity, coupled with her ability to streamline processes and enhance productivity, has been instrumental in elevating both companies to new heights.

Beyond her professional achievements, Rebecca is a devoted mother to her three children—Eva, Thomas, and Sebastian. She leads by example, showing that success and family are not mutually exclusive but can thrive together with the right mindset, discipline, and drive. And with that lifestyle, she can enjoy many weekends on the boat, swimming with manatees, and enjoying the life-giving Florida sun.

Rebecca Johnson isn’t just a leader—she’s a force of nature. With an unstoppable work ethic, a sharp business mind, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, she continues to redefine what it means to be a top-tier real estate professional. Whether she’s closing deals, helping the agents, or running multiple businesses, Rebecca does it all with purpose, passion, and an unshakable determination to succeed.


Building a Legacy for Women in Real Estate

At Rabell Realty Group, Kristen and Rebecca’s story serves as an inspiration to all women, especially those looking to break barriers and create their own success. They took the leap, defied the odds, and built a brokerage that’s not only successful but also rooted in values that empower women to lead, innovate, and thrive.

As we celebrate Women’s History Month, we honor Kristen and Rebecca’s journey — a journey that continues to inspire and impact the world of real estate, one step at a time. Their story is proof that when women support each other and follow their passions, they can create something truly special.

Selecting a company with plenty of positive, authentic reviews can help ensure you have peace of mind in hiring them for your move. Read the reviews to learn about the experiences of previous customers who have worked with them in the past. Once you have a specific mover in mind, check the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to see whether or not they have accreditation and a good rating. 

Look Out For Red Flags

Most moving companies you come across will be legitimate. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t many scammers out there looking to grab your cash without providing the promised services. There are several red flags to be on the lookout for; if you spot these red flags, there’s a good chance the company in question is not legitimate.

  • The movers refuse to sign a contract
  • The company is not insured or licensed
  • The company doesn’t offer protection for items against loss or damage
  • You receive a low-ball estimate from the company

Ask The Right Questions

  • What is the timeline for the move?
  • Can you provide an estimate in writing?

Benefits Of Hiring A Professional Moving Company

Labeled Boxes

Picture this: you are moving into your new space. You want to cook a meal in your new kitchen but can’t find your silverware! You frantically tear through every box, digging through them and making a mess in the process. Our moving company can help prevent this stressful scenario by carefully labeling each of your boxes, so they can be unpacked in the exact room that they belong in. In addition, our moving checklist helps make sure nothing is lost or forgotten during your move.

Disassembly For Difficult Items

The problem with moving is that not everything can be crammed into a box. Some large items, like bookcases, beds, trampolines, and children’s swing sets, may require disassembly before they can be transported, which can be difficult. You may not remember exactly where to unscrew a shelf or how to take a trampoline apart. A professional moving company can help figure this out for you by packing and reassembling your large items in your new location. 

Clutter Removal & Disposal

The benefit of moving into a new space is that it is clean and fresh – full of infinite new possibilities and memories yet to be made! But, it can be hard to enjoy this when your apartment or home is cluttered with the same junk or unwanted items from your old place. A professional moving company can remove these unsightly things and allow you to maximize the potential of your home. They can remove anything, from small boxes to heavy old furniture – as long as it is nonhazardous. A moving company can also throw away and remove cardboard boxes and leftover packaging that was used in the moving process.

Our Gainesville professional moving company is unique from others in that we offer an eco-friendly approach to junk removal. Not everything needs to be thrown away – often, a piece of furniture or clothing can be thrifty and reutilized. Depending on the item, we will work with you to assess whether it can still be donated or recycled.

Peace Of Mind

With some valuable, priceless items, bubble wrap and newspaper won’t be of much use. That’s why professional moving services offer crating. Crating allows your fragile belongings, such as electronics or art, to be handled with care. 

UF Mover Guys wants to give you peace of mind regarding your upcoming move. That’s why we train our employees in best driving practices. Your favorite finds and collectibles are transported smoothly and safely in our vehicles, allowing you to worry about more important things.

We want to help make your apartment feel like home as quickly as possible.

https://blog.ufmoverguys.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Helpful-Checklist-For-Moving-To-An-Apartment.jpg

Invest In Storage

Depending on the size of your apartment, you may need to invest in hidden storage. Storage ottomans and coffee tables with concealed, empty centers are great options for hiding unsightly clutter, mail, or miscellaneous board games. However, before purchasing large storage furniture items, measure your apartment space to make sure everything fits. When unpacking your closet and wardrobe, you can also use door organizers to hang up your shoes, belts, and accessories. Play around with different options to discover the perfect fit for your apartment. 

Research Renter’s Insurance

While no one wants to think of disaster striking them and their home, it is always a possibility. Renter’s insurance allows people to stay prepared. This insurance option, depending on your insurance provider, can be relatively affordable when paid month-to-month. The purpose of renter’s insurance is that it offers coverage in case of loss or damage to your personal belongings. Whether an unexpected fire starts in your home or water floods your building, renter’s insurance is there to protect your items. Each insurance provider offers different coverage options, so be ready to research and compare. It’s better to be safe and sorry – look into renter’s insurance today.

Update Your Address

Most people forget to do this! When you move from one place to the next, make sure to update your address information on any important documents or services. Check your voter registration, driver’s license, subscriptions, bills, and upcoming deliveries. That way, all of your necessary things will be delivered to the correct location. 

Conduct An Inspection

Don’t be held liable for a previous tenant’s negligence. Most landlords and apartment managers require you to complete an inspection sheet after you move in. You are given the first few days to assess the condition of your kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, bedroom, living room, and closets. It is important to be thorough in your inspection in case you need to file any necessary maintenance or service requests. Additionally, if you mark down all of the damage you see, you can also ensure that you get your security deposit back. Check to see if there are any leaks under the sink, if the light switches, fans, and appliances work properly, and if the doors lock and close completely. 

5 To-Do’s To Settle Into Your Gainesville Student Apartment

Moving into a student apartment in Gainesville is an exciting step in your academic and personal life. Apartment living offers much more flexibility and convenience than dorm life, with perks like in-unit washers and dryers instead of the communal laundry room, furnished apartments so you can decorate your space to your taste, pet-friendly living so you can finally bring your fury friends along for your college experience, and much more.

However, moving into your very first apartment and settling into apartment life can feel overwhelming and unfamiliar. Here are 5 tips to make this transition smooth and comfortable.
5 To-Do's To Settle Into Your Gainesville Student Apartment

Knock Out All Paperwork & Fees Prior To Move-In Day

Move-in day is a chaotic day of unloading and unpacking boxes and adjusting to your new space. Before moving into your apartment near UF, communicate with the apartment office team on your to-dos to pick up keys. 

Make sure that all your paperwork is filled out, including little things like sending in your pets’ vaccinations or renter’s insurance information. Confirm that all your move-in fees have been paid, including leasing fees, deposits, pet deposits, and more. You’ll feel much more at ease when you arrive to the leasing office on move-in day with nothing left to sign or pay. Just pick up your keys and get moved in!

Set Your Roommate Relationship Up For Success

Lots of student apartments in Gainesville offer individual leases in bigger floor plans like 3-bedrooms or 4-bedrooms so you only have to worry about your portion of the monthly rent. Many communities also offer roommate matching and assign your roommates based on lifestyle habits like sleeping schedules, cleanliness, and more.

Roommate matching is an awesome way to make friends in college, but it also comes with some responsibility. Start a group chat ahead of move-in to clarify who’s bringing what apartment items and expectations for your living situation. It’s always easier to communicate concerns like hosting friends over too late or leaving the kitchen a mess if you establish expectations from the start.

Make  A Checklist Of Must-Have Items

While most student apartments are furnished with all of the basics in your bedroom and living room, you’ll need to think through what additional items you need when settling into your new home. Start a checklist a few months out from move-in day of items you need to pack or purchase, thinking through spaces like your study desk, bathroom, and kitchen. Do you need a lamp for your desk for late night study sessions? Do you need an organizer for under your bathroom sink? Do you need to stock up on cleaning supplies? What appliances does your kitchen come with, do you need a microwave?

It’s inevitable to forget little items and it takes some time living in your apartment to realize everything you’ll need to be successful and comfortable, but it’s always best to be as prepared as possible ahead of time. 

Familiarize yourself with the neighborhood.

Gainesville is a wonderful city full of culture and fun. It can sometimes feel like you’re living in a bubble when living in an on-campus dorm as you typically don’t need to leave campus. Don’t feel overwhelmed when transitioning to off-campus housing near UF.

Gainesville has a neighborhood for everyone – from Midtown right off the UF campus packed with restaurants and nightlife, to Archer Road featuring Butler Town Center and Celebration Pointe with tons of retail and entertainment, to the scenic Sorority Row & South area close to UF Health and the Sweetwater Wetlands park. 

Plan a night with your roommates after class to drive around the neighborhood, noting restaurants or things you want to check out!

Find Community In Student Housing

If you’re feeling lonely, lean on your roommates, neighbors, and new-found community at your student apartment! Most apartments offer monthly or even weekly resident events, offering free food and fun activities for you to connect with your neighbors and the leasing team. 

Everyone feels a little isolated transitioning from the constant hustle and bustle of on-campus living to off-campus living, so remind yourself that everyone is looking to make new friends and find new community!

Get Started Early

One of the biggest moving challenges for people planning to relocate is managing their belongings before, during, and after moving. Packing up your belongings early can give you the opportunity to sort through items and throw out or donate items you no longer want and need and offset any big stress associated with completing the packing process closer to your move-out date. The earlier you start packing up and organizing your belongings, the easier your move will be as you approach moving day. Consider packing up one box each day until your move-out day. You should also designate a box storage area to separate your already-packed boxes from your belongings that still need to be secured and packed.

Be Focused & Flexible

When you have a move coming up, it’s a good idea to make a moving list comprising everything you need to get done before the move-out day arrives. Once you have your list, you can sort each task in order of priority or importance or deadline and work down from there. It’s important to remember that you should stay flexible and open-minded during your packing up and moving out process. As moving day approaches, call our movers to confirm your moving date and services, watch the weather forecast and dress accordingly, and manage your change of address (at least 1 month in advance) with the post office. If you have any pets, you should have a pet plan in which you board your pet on moving day, have a friend or family member watch them, or find them an alternative place to hang out while the moving process takes place.

Benefits Of Moving In The Winter

There are plenty of benefits to moving in the winter. From more options for moving dates due to decreased demand and greater availability of rental trucks, commercial spaces, and residential places to speedier move-outs, quicker transportation, and a range of cost-saving perks! Contact UF Mover Guys to find out how you can benefit from moving during the winter!
