Karen Smith is the best! 2022 is a tough market for buyers, and without Karen's advice and support, we could not have found our dream home. She is responsive, honest, and patient- the best traits of a phenomenal real estate agent. Karen is also extremely knowledgeable about the central Ohio housing market and local school districts. She was flexible in accommodating showings around our work schedules and leveraged her experience and connections to help us get additional insights into potential properties. On multiple occasions, Karen went far above and beyond the call of duty to assist us, even driving in a snow storm to give us our mailbox key after closing and offering helpful interior design tips. What should have been a stressful home-buying experience in a market with fluctuating interest rates and demand far exceeding supply, Karen's humor and sunny disposition made the process seem a lot less overwhelming, as she clearly had our best interests in mind. We will continue to recommend Karen to our family and friends.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Karen and the team at the Smart Move Group. Everyone was incredibly helpful, efficient and kind. I appreciate all of your efforts. Thank you!

This was our second time working with Karen and it was a great experience from start to finish. Karen and her team took care of everything and got us a top offer for our home (that we originally purchased with Karens help!).

We were pleased working with Karen in every facet of our move. From two years prior to our move when she would call in to check on us, to the listing and staging phase to the viewing and post sale stages she was always there to help. It was always like talking to a friend you had known for a long time. She is everything we had hoped we would find in a realtor.

We have worked with Karen twice now. She helped us sell two of our homes, and I can't express enough how awesome she and her team are when it comes helping sell your home or buy a new one. Our most recent home sold within a few hours. Karen is very knowledgeable, kind, and patient :-). I really trust her and value her opinion. I recommend her to all my friends and family!

Karen was very easy to work with and was patient with us trying to navigate selling our first home. She was very attentive and responsive to everything we asked. Would love to have her sell another home!

Our property did not sell for six months with price drops. We Took the property off the market and decided to change the realtor, After interviewing a few realtors we selected Karen Smith. .... And did not regret it. From the start, Karen guided us on improvements which should be made to the property. Since we live out of state, she took charge of getting the work done; the costs were reasonable. On the first day of viewing, we had two offers, above the list price. Karen's advice on the offers was very valuable and we successfully negotiated the sale by 10:00pm. Karen, knows the local market well and has a good intuition about what the buyer seeks. She stayed in touch through out the process and kept us informed. The highest recommendation for Karen Smith

KAREN smith was professional during every step of our transaction. We had seven offers and she helped us navigate through the terms in each offer to fit our situation best.

Karen helped us sell our home recently. She was very professional and helpful. We went with Karen after our house did not sell for a few months through another realtor, and we are very happy we switched to Karen. She did what she had to do and our home sold very soon after. She is very responsive, friendly and knowledgeable. She and her team ( Holly Stephens) did a fabulous job!!!

Karen is fantastic at her job!! My husband and I couldn't have been happier with Karen and her team. She helped us sell our previous home and buy our dream home. We sold and bought in two hot markets (sold in Harrison West/Short North and bought in Upper Arlington). In my opinion, the negotiation skills, local knowledge, and overall experience in the market is what separates a "decent" realtor from a great one! Karen is "battle experienced" and her negotiation experience and just overall "battle/war experience" navigated us through multiple offers on our old house and multiple offers on our new house. She knew what levers to pull, what buttons to push when, when to hit the gas pedal and the brakes...she advised us on what to do and when to do it every step of the way- and this experience helped us get the best contract/offer on our old house and helped us win the contract on our dream house, despite multiple offers on it. Looking back, the entire selling/buying/closing on two houses within 60 days was totally seamless!! There's no doubt this was due to Karen and her team. The cherry on the top is that Karen is warm, nice, professional, and just overall pleasant to work with. She has a "get after it" personality - whatever "it" is - and this work ethic and drive only benefited us in the end. Do yourselves a big favor, and let Karen help you.

Karen was great to work with, she was very accommodating of our busy schedules. She did a phenomal job with communication and always keeping us in the loop on what was occurring. She always seemed positive and knowledgable about the process even when we were getting nervous about our complicated situation (selling and building a home at the same time).

Karen was really good at talking us through the process - having never bought a property in the US before. When we were confused about some aspects of the purchase - she made time to visit us and talk through in detail to make sure we fully understood what was going to happen. She was also great at attending part of the inspection and the walk through and offering help and support through this process and picking up a couple of issues after we had closed/moved into the property.
