Neighbors who had used Kim Werla as their realtor when purchasing their home recommended Kim to us, and are we glad they did! Kim ably handled a multitude of questions during our first two meetings with the team of family members who were helping to prepare our parents' former home for sale. She walked us through each room, highlighting the history of the community's builder, as well as the features of the home and its location that would appeal to buyers. Kim also pointed to areas we could address to make the home more appealing, recommending furniture removal, touch up painting, and minor repairs. This helped our group to see the space with fresh eyes, making it easier for us to do what needed to be done. Outside, she walked the property, praising the general maintenance of the home and its landscaping while pointing to areas needing attention. Using information on comparable homes for sale in the area, she gave us a good starting point for an asking price and as the market slowed was able to help us refine that asking price to increase interest. Through Open Houses, individual showings and contact with other listing agents, Kim Werla and her team showcased the home and kept us informed about the feedback received. Once the home was under contract, Kim helped us to quickly find contractors to address the minor issues which the inspection turned up. She arranged for vendors to access the home for repairs when we were unable to, and continued to keep us informed every step of the way. She came to the closing and was able to advise us appropriately when the buyer's bank delayed the transfer of funds due to their last minute error. Kim Werla's professional service, extensive knowledge and timely communication with us made all the difference. We would recommend her to any and all!

Her deep understanding of the local market and excellent communication skills made selling our home a smooth process. We were very impressed by her proactive down to earth approach, with professional photography and a strategy that brought us many potential buyers. She guided us through every step with patience and expertise, ensuring a stress-free experience and helping us achieve a fantastic outcome. As residents of New York selling a home in Florida, Kim did whatever she needed to do to make this a non-stressful experience. She always gave us honest opinions, was a constant support going beyond her normal duties as our agent and was there for us. She answered all of our questions, kept us up-to-date during the process, and took care of all the paperwork. We couldn’t have gotten through it without her and that is why our family would highly recommend Kim for your real estate agent.

We have been working with Karen since 2019. She helped us find and buy a house in North Port in 2019 and sell our house in 2025. She is hard working and always available. Totally professional. She really cares not only about selling your house but about you personally. We always felt like we were her only client at that moment, that’s the amount of attention we received.

Karen was wonderful. From her patience during the looking process to negotiating a fair deal for both parties. She was very knowledgeable about the area and answered her phone every time i called with a question. I felt like she was on my side and was there for me all the way through closing. I highly recommend her and will use her again myself for my next purchase.

We have moved several times, the last time 13 years ago. We checked MLS listings for realtor's current listings for original information, not the same generic listing. Also, the pictures, not showing pictures of corners and showing laundry on furniture. We both checked and compared notes. We both picked Kim to look at. Having met with her we looked no further. My biggest assurance of quality was she is a retired Senior Chief in the Navy. Being retired from the military tells me she will continue her Navy professionalism to real estate. She drew up comps of similar houses and brought us a package to look at. She had a lot of detail including pictures and information of similar homes in our area. No other realtor we have had has done this much work. Maybe things have changed since our last sale. Kim made the process easy to navigate and listened to our concerns. We had an offer in 6 days and have now closed. When we saw the listing on Realtor.com we did not believe it was our house. The professional pictures were perfect. Maybe our home would still be for sale if we had not found a buyer in a buyer's market. We know she put us in the best position to sell because of her knowledge and hard work. I learned a lesson to stay quiet and let the professional advise us and do the work for us. Also, her husband works with her and is also a retired chief in the Navy. Kim would be good person to talk to. I am certain you would be happy with your home sale. Plus, she is a hard person not to like.

There were a lot of hurdles to get over in selling our condo. Kim was always there to guide us through the tough spots. She was honest with us, even if it meant giving us news we did not want to hear. However, she was always considerate and understanding. In the end, we are very satisfied with the results she was able to get for the sale of our property. We would recommend Kim to our friends. She and her team went above and beyond! Thank you, Kim, and your team!

Karen is exceptional. She worked until she found just what we were looking for. We had a couple challenges come up due to a situation with the sellers. Her communication with us could not have been better. We would highly recommend her. In fact we did, and our very good friends had just as good of an experience with her as we did.
