Great estate agent - honest and hard-working

My husband and I bought a place from Karen in 2016, which we then sold in 2022 with her as our agent. As both a vendor and a buyer, I was always impressed with Karen's openness, transparency, and communication. In fact, the reason we contracted her to sell our place was because of our excellent experience with her when we were buying it. I'd highly recommend working with her to sell your home. She got us a fantastic price for it, far more than we initially hoped for before speaking with her.

Quick and painless real estate sale a breeze.

Karen's long teem local market knowledge has served us well in the recent sale of our Pennyroyal property. Friendly and personable her customer service is second to none. Would certainly engage her again.

Professional and friendly service

Working with Karen was smooth from the point of contact to the sale of the property. Karen has great knowledge of the local market and is able to set sale expectations in line with current trends. She is a consummate professional with exemplary communication skills. She is also incredibly helpful and responsive during the all phases of the property sale. She is also very willing and able to sort out any little hiccups that may occur along the way. She is extremely professional and and I can't recommend Karen highly enough to any would be sellers in her region area.

Our experience both buying and selling with Karen Stribling of Lorne Real Estate

We first met Karen Stribling a decade ago when we were looking to buy a property in Lorne. Since then, we have purchased three and sold two properties in Lorne. It means that we have been on both sides; both as a buyer and a seller. In each case we dealt exclusively with Karen. The qualities that define Karen are a strong work ethic and a genuine desire to deliver a great outcome for both for the buyer and the seller. Her knowledge of Lorne is exceptional, having been a lifetime resident. Karen works well beyond “the call of duty” as evidenced by her continued follow-up and genuine efforts to ensure that all parties to a transaction are satisfied and settled in for a period that extends well beyond the sale itself. We highly recommend Karen whether you plan to buy or sell in Lorne. Michael & Sandra Kemp
