Home closed today in Fountain Hills! I highly recommend Karen DeGeorge

Home closed today in Fountain Hills! I highly recommend Karen DeGeorge. Everything is done first class, she's very smart, she knows Fountain Hills intimately, and she's been very kind and astute, true advocacy, every interaction, every day! (I sort of wish she was my sister:)

Professional, patient and proven

Karen and her team were amazing to work when we recently sold our home. Karen & team did a real time market value on our home, did not set an unrealistic value or expectation on the property and timeline to sell. From the photos to market materials, every thing was first class. We had numerous showings every week during the listing period and multiple offers over the the time on market. Stacie was great with communication with all of the short notice showing requests and follow up during the sale. I would and do recommend Karen DeGeorge & partners to everyone.

Best buying experience I've ever had! I was buying a house in Mesa while still living in New York —

Best buying experience I've ever had! I was buying a house in Mesa while still living in New York — which, for anyone who's tried it, is already a nightmare. Karen made it easy. She set me up with a great lender, handled all the back-and-forth, and kept me in the loop the entire time. I never had to wonder what was going on. Her negotiating skills are also impressive. She got us a price and terms I didn't think were even possible. I still can't believe how well it worked out. I've bought and sold a lot of homes, and this was by far the smoothest transaction I've ever been through. Karen's "white glove service" isn't just a tagline — she genuinely lives it. Her team was awesome too. Responsive, professional, and just really great to work with. They went above and beyond. If you want someone who'll truly be in your corner and make the whole thing feel effortless, Karen DeGeorge is the one to call. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Jill was absolutely phenomenal throughout our home-buying journey! She went above and beyond to help

Jill was absolutely phenomenal throughout our home-buying journey! She went above and beyond to help us close, no matter what obstacle came our way. She was knowledgeable, responsive, determined, and always had our best interests at heart. Thanks to her dedication and hard work, we made it to the closing table. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and highly recommend Jill and the Russ Lyon Sotheby’s team!
