REVIEWS
I work with Karen so I have seen her awesomeness as a coworker often. Karen is very good at communicating and helped me find many options for a house to make my new home. She was very kind and caring while being honest about the houses we were looking at. I appreciated her great advice every step of the way. All the people she recommended was just as amazing to help close on my future home. She is a great nurse and a great realtor! Thanks for all your hard work friend, awesome job!
