We’ve had the pleasure of working with Kara twice now first in 2020 and again this summer, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. Both times, she went above and beyond to make the process smooth, straightforward, and successful. Most importantly, both of our homes sold for over asking! She is knowledgeable, responsive, strategic, and truly cares about her clients. The fact that we chose to work with her again several years later says a lot about the trust we have in her. We would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic real estate agent.

From start to finish Kara took charge with amazing knowledge of the current market and guided us every step of the way. While being sensitive to our needs she was also realistic. Will use next time and every time!

I met Kara completely by chance in an elevator. She was so warm, kind, and easy to talk to that by the end of the elevator ride, I asked if she was taking new clients. I’m so glad I did. As first-time homebuyers, we had literally a million questions. Kara patiently answered every single one. She walked us through each step of the process, explained things we didn’t understand, and made sure we always felt informed and confident in our decisions. We never felt pressured or rushed—just genuinely supported. Kara is also, without exaggeration, one of the hardest-working people I know. She is incredibly responsive, proactive, organized, and always willing to go the extra mile. Throughout the entire process, it was obvious that she truly cared about our family and about helping us find the right home. What started as a random elevator conversation turned into one of the best decisions we could have made during our home-buying experience. We feel incredibly lucky that we happened to meet Kara that day and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, hardworking, patient, and genuinely wonderful to work with, Kara is your person.

When selling our house, Kara told us to "trust the process" of her listing strategy and we ended up with multiple offers that exceeded our expectations. She was responsive, helpful, and always willing to stop by the house to drop off or pick up anything we needed for listing. We bought with her previously and had an equally positive experience. Highly recommend.

Kara was excellent all around! Every question we had was answered even if it meant she had to go great lengths to get it. As a first-time homebuyer she explained everything very clearly and guided us through this complex process. Kara is very professional and knows what she’s talking about! Couldn’t have asked for a better agent and can’t wait to work with her in the future!!

We had a great experience working with Kara, she was extremely informative throughout the entire process and never pressured us to make a decision we weren't comfortable making. We enjoyed all the feedback she was able to provide during home tours and she was always available to chat if we had any questions. She always kept us on track with any documents or information we needed to provide to ensure there were no delays at closing!

New to Charlotte, I was really nervous about finding a realtor we could trust to help us make the right decision when buying our first home. Kara was referred to us by one of our colleagues who couldn’t say enough positive things about her and I’m so glad we took the leap! Kara has been an incredible guide throughout this process. She lets us form our own opinions first but doesn’t hesitate give us the wholehearted truth of what she sees from an expert’s perspective. I really appreciated she never pushed us or pressured us to make a decision. It always felt like she genuinely cared about the happiness of her clients. We had a lot of questions, a smaller budget compared to other homes she has sold, and some personal circumstances that made the process a little tougher, and yet we never felt like we were treated differently. I also want to add that that goes for us being an LGBTQ+ couple too — Kara had no hesitations and invited us to client events with other families. If you are a first time homebuyer, Kara will make you feel confident and heard so take the leap and choose her to be by your side! (Plus, you get a free Kara West pizza cutter and it’s pretty dang cool).

Kara was so kind and understanding through the entire house buying process! We don’t have any family in the area and are first time buyers so we really appreciate Kara being our “real estate mom.” She told us the gods honest truth about every property and helped us learn what to look for! The entire process was so easy and she explained every step of the way. I cannot recommend her enough!

Kara is a wonderful agent. She understands the current market/trends and is very experienced and knowledgeable in her job. Her long term experience in the Charlotte area is a huge benefit to every prospective client. She kept our buying expectations at the forefront, found the home we were looking for, and made everything super easy along the way. Her contacts are stellar, responsive to everything from inspection to repairs. Buying with Kara was definitely a wonderful experience and I highly recommend her to everyone in the Charlotte area.

I have worked with Kara for almost 2 years now. She is extremely patient and knowledgeable when it comes to finding the right home. As a first-time home buyer, working with Kara made all the difference. From day one, she was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to explain each step in a way that made sense. No question ever felt too small, and I truly felt supported and informed throughout the entire journey.

Kara is prompt and communicative. She handled questions and issues quickly (when she didn't have to wait on us!). Her experience and connections with contractors made our inspections and negotiations a breeze. Her recommendations for contractors calmed our anxieties about future home remodels. This was the third house I've purchased, and she's by far the best realtor I've worked with.

We've had good experiences with realtors, and one fairly terrible one, but Kara set the bar for excellent! She was always ready to answer any questions, had great suggestions and advice, and helped us find a home we really love. Kara made the experience of buying a new home an easy, pleasant one. If you are looking for a realtor in her area, you can't go wrong with Kara West!
