Karen is very knowledgeable of her industry, backed by years of experience in honing her craft.  At the time Karen was a newly minted agent and I was her first client.  When I had worked with Karen, she demonstrated the utmost professionalism.  Always reachable and going out of her way, no matter the conflict and differences in our schedules. Despite my being busy with my university studies and other important family responsibilities that I could not escape at the time, she represented me well on my behalf.  That is the level of trust I have in her and her abilities. Karen was helpful at every step of the way in closing the deal on my property as a first-time homeowner.  Her input, advice, and hard work was what made the difference.  She was attentive in addressing all my concerns and questions.  Even when situations were not ideal, she helped found a way.  And that is a testament to not only her character but what makes a person a great real estate agent. At no point in time did it ever feel like a standard partner-client relationship, she was like family.  I could not recommend her services enough and would be more than happy and willing to do business with her again in the near future.  Especially, as I look to begin to build my real estate investment portfolio.
