Ratings & Reviews

Megan

I had the pleasure of working with Kara as my real estate agent and couldn't have been more impressed with her expertise and professionalism. From the very beginning, Kara took the time to understand my needs and preferences and was always available to answer any questions I had. She went above and beyond to find properties that met my criteria, and her knowledge of the local real estate market was invaluable in helping me make informed decisions. She even stepped in and helped us through a unique selling and buying situation. Throughout the buying process, Kara was a trusted advisor and advocate, negotiating on my behalf and ensuring that all of my interests were protected. She was always honest, transparent, and responsive, and I felt completely confident and comfortable working with her. Thanks to Kara, I was able to find the perfect home for my family, and couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would highly recommend Kara.

Jade

Kara helped me navigate selling my house through the difficulties of a divorce and in a very specific buyers market. Cannot recommend her services enough. She was able to encourage me and keep the faith that we could get it done. She also helped me secure my new dream home with as little stress as possible. She is a gem!
