Karen Moore

Most of Karen’s’ business is repeat or referral business. She is a referred by clients to their family, friends, and co-workers. She has worked with multiple generations within families and have maintained friendships long after real estate transactions are complete. She loves that past clients are confident enough with her service to recommend me to people that are special to them.
She treats each real estate client, even new ones, as if they are her friend and advise accordingly. She does not harp on the negative but will point out to buyers with whom she works with, any potential issues with resale or issues in general that in their excitement they may not have noticed. Then the buyer is free to make the decision of their choice after consideration of that information. Many of Karen’s clients both sell and buy with her when they move.
Often times when a listing being viewed by a buyer who has also been my seller is not in its best showing condition, the client will look at her and say, “This house has not been Karenized” and she knows exactly what they mean. She helps sellers to de-clutter and stage their homes prior to ordering professional photos for marketing. She has even had clients to remain in their homes and not sell at all after the home has been ‘Karenized”. She has grown fond of the term because she knows that seller-buyer clients use the term affectionately once they see homes that are not de-cluttered and staged and that they have gained an appreciation for the process. Her listings usually sell quickly because they are priced correctly based on market data analyzed together with the client and because they show well after being prepared for the market. She will tell you what you need to hear whether it is what you want to hear or not and then you both can make a mutual decision about how to proceed.
Each time Karen accepts a client, she is investing my time, energy, and money and I feel that it must be a team effort between her and the client. If she cannot help you to achieve your objective, she will tell you so and will walk away with no hard feelings. She is a down-to-earth, hardworking, get-it-done, trustworthy, honest, and truthful person who is sometimes too blunt for the comfort of those around her, but many have come to appreciate her for that exact reason. Gone are the days of pencil skirts and heels – she is the agent who crawls under the house with the inspector to see with my own eyes what they have found that you need to know more about – and that is best done in casual, comfortable clothing. She prefers the experience together to be fun, friendly, and painless. She considers herself as the teammate of her clients offering my knowledge to help them to achieve their goals.
She has sold properties that range in price from $50,000 to $3,000,000 and has enjoyed each and every transaction and personality. With more than 30 years behind her in this profession, she feels that she has a lot more to offer than she sometimes realizes. Karen’s biggest asset is likely her win/win negotiation skills that can see both sides of a transaction and find solutions for reaching agreements.
