We highly recommend Karen McCrackin-Allen to help you find your dream home! She is knowledgeable, friendly and exceptionally skillful in mediating and negotiating home sales. Karen’s focus on helping us find a home was based on our interests rather than pressuring us in any way. She was objective and caring and offered plenty of helpful information on the different neighborhoods, restaurants, health care facilities and recreational activities in the area. Karen’s expertise really came into play when we found a house we loved and were ready to make an offer. Karen confidently guided us through the negotiation process without trying to influence our decision-making. Instead, she explained, in great detail, possible scenarios and encouraged us to decide what would be best. It all turned out great! Karen worked hard to help us negotiate a fair deal and warmly welcomed us to SLO!
