More than our expectation and our expectation was high
Firstly I don't just give false recommendations, actually I don't give out many recommendations at all but I'm happy to give credit where credit is due. We interviewed 3 agents to list our house and even considered selling it ourselves for a few weeks, by far Karen stood out by genuinely believing in our property like us. She could see the same potential and had a vision the other agents didn't. Karen's strength is in negotiation and finding the right buyer who will also see the benefits in a property. We definitely didn't make it easy for Karen, with a lot of special condition my wife and I had. This didn't deter Karen she was happy to mould into the agent we wanted (even if it didn't exist elsewhere). Her professionalism, communication and personality made us feel at ease. In the end we went under contract in a matter of weeks for a price of over 20k more than the top price the other agents were saying we could get.
I understand that this review may sound like too much of a sales pitch for Karen so to bring it back to earth here is the other side. Well we still have to pay the commission ;) I guess there is no way around that, and I guess it depends how you look at it, she covered her own commission in the extra price we got for the sale.
What I learnt from selling our house with Karen is don't be afraid to ask the hard questions, tell her what you really want and see what she can do, you may be pleasantly surprised. Jayden & Tara Spinnaker Blvd Wurtulla
