I had such a great experience working with Karen to buy my first home. She was responsive, knowledgable, and hard-working to help us close the deal. I felt well taken care of and would recommend Karen to anybody!
Karen is an absolute pro. She is knowledgeable about everything stage of the selling process and a true advocate for her clients. Karen did everything possible to sell our home quickly and exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Karen for anyone looking for a real estate agent in Chicago.
Karen is a seasoned professional who gets the job done and who is a sheer pleasure with whom to work. I’ve known Karen for 15 years and she is a consummate professional who knows the market, knows residential real estate, and knows how to work with and through people. I could simply not recommend Karen more highly to get your real estate transaction complete, whether buying or selling. Karen is also so well connected in the community that she is an excellent resource to ‘handle the unexpected’. I’m thoroughly convinced that there is no situation or circumstance that she cannot handle, with ease and professionalism.
Karen and Lou guided us (and stuck with us) through several offers, changed priorities, and sticky summer house hunting, eventually finding our dream home. They were very helpful, organized, attentive, and thoughtful through the whole process. I still go to them for advice on all things housing-related.
Karen was very patient as my sale involved selling while I was across the country and during a pandemic; her knowledge of the market allowed me the space I needed to be able to comfortably sell my beloved space in Chicago. Very thorough and to the point, I highly recommend her!
Once upon a time there was a 30 something who knew she wanted to buy a home but also hated the prospect of dealing with everything that goes into it. One day, she met her realtor fairy godmother, Karen. Karen was incredible every step of the way. Karen's years of experience, attention to detail, and high standards make her the ultimate guide and advocate in the homebuying process. She also comes with lists of resources for people you will need. My loan, home inspector, and lawyer came on her recommendation and they were truly top notch. Karen's commitment to the people she works with goes well beyond just the purchase. She found me the excellent temporary housing I needed during this transition period and connected me with local contractors for the renovations I have planned. Thank you, Karen. You made this experience easy and fun. You have a lifetime customer in me.

Karen worked with us from the start. She met with us, explained the selling process, described what we needed to do to prepare our condo and gave us target dates to put it on the market. She was easily reachable, always returned calls promptly, and was willing to talk as long as necessary. She was clearly knowledgeable and experienced. Her advice was thoughtful and invariably sound. I recommend her highly.
This was the fourth real estate transaction that Karen handled for us over the past 20 years. Her 30+ Years of experience enabled us to sell our house in six days and subsequently close a month after that. Her knowledge of the market, her advice on how to best present the house, her ability to talk with other real estate agents Involved in the negotiations all contributed to the fantastic success we had with her in the sale of our house. We would use her again in a heartbeat and can wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
Karen was referred to us by our real estate attorney which is a feat in itself as he is well connected in the Chicago market. He told us if we wanted our condo to sell, we needed Karen. When I met her I knew why right away. Karen is the right balance of kindness and gusto. She gave us advice for improvements that we hadn’t received from our previous agency. She told us how we could accomplish them in a cost efficient manner. Karen is excellent in communication and organization as well. She also took time to get to know our family and what exactly we wanted out of our experience. She sold our condo in no time! Karen knows her stuff and gets the job done.
Karen was a pleasure to work with from our first meeting to the sale closing of our 3 flat rental property. Her extensive market knowledge and comprehensive list of comparable properties helped us set a realistic price that quickly attracted four good offers. She qualified the prospective buyers and represented us, the sellers, very well through the offer and contract negotiation process. Karen's follow-up of action items throughout the entire process was outstanding. In short Karen will help you sell your property expeditiously and at a fair price.
Karen was a true professional from day one. Her market knowledge and her thirty plus years of experience was evident throughout the entire process. I have and will continue to highly recommend Karen to friends and family.
