Karie helped us buy our home last year, and we couldn’t be happier. She was diligent in finding us the newest listings and was incredibly responsive in setting up showings via FaceTime or recording videos (we were stuck in Alaska at the time). When we did choose a home, her advice and expertise from making an offer to final closing was invaluable. We’ve already recommended her to friends and will continue to do so!

Karie is amazing, After finding out that we had to move in a very short time period we contacted Karie, she was over three days later with the professional photographer, virtual tour and drone video team getting everything taken care of. She walked us through the pre-listing process, made some suggestions on how best to show our home and helped me find some contractors to get some last minute repairs done. She is very responsive via email, phone and text. We listed our house and 4 days later after 6 showings we had an over asking offer that we accepted. Her team has been walking through the rest of the inspection and closing process with us and I have nothing but good things to say about their professionalism, responsiveness and willingness to work with what we need to do. If you want to feel like you're the only client you need to work with Karie.
