We worked with Karen to purchase our first home, and we couldn’t be happier. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and made the whole process feel effortless. As first time buyers, she guided us through each step, making sure we understood everything and was always readily available to answer any questions we had. Thanks Karen!

Karen did a fantastic job helping us navigate the sale of our mother's home after she moved into an independent living facility. She not only maximized our value, she navigated the entire transaction with grace and understanding.

Karen is wonderful! She responded quickly to my texts and emails, negotiated amazingly, and secured my contract! She knew what to do to get my contract to the top of the contenders. The home I wanted to purchase had 10 offers in 24 hours and thanks to her savvy contract skills, I won the bid. I’m so grateful for her. She was attentive every step of the way and extremely knowledgeable. Highly, highly recommend.

Karen is an expert in her marketplace and was brought additional insight into small but important details about each neighborhood. Additionally, her communication skills were second to none as we had clear open dialog consistently until we moved in!

Excellent. Friendly, professional, helpful the while time. I would recommend her for wherever you wish to live. She had as much patients as I required to prepare my property for sale. She also helped me find new property and her expertise in both fields made the whole process calm, enjoyable and fun.
