Melissa E. bought a home in Cedar Falls, Iowa

Karen was amazing to work with. She made the purchase of our Cedar Falls home so easy. She went above and beyond in assisting us with things that needed to be done prior to moving day (letting contractors in, us in to the house to measure, finding someone to mow the lawn.) She was truly amazing and I will recommend her over and over again!

Charles W. sold a home in Waterloo, Iowa

Karen helped us sell our home of 41yrs.. She was very understanding of our lack of knowledge in real estate sales that have occurred in years since buying a home. She also understood our hesitancy of selling a home that has become a very integral part of our past and our children's past. She was able to get our home sold in 2 days. Karen was also our agent for buying our replacement home. She was able to work through some issues to help us get the home we really desired. I must also note that we were initially thinking of moving from Waterloo to Cedar Rapids and Karen made contact and went with us to view several homes in Cedar Rapids and Parkersburg. I would highly recommend Karen in buying or selling real estate. She listens and helps guide you in your decision process. Very pleased.

Robert S. sold a home in Cedar Falls, Iowa

Karen has helped many of my friends as well as myself find that perfect home or that perfect buyer. She is exceptionally dedicated and professional and always adds that extra touch to make the home buying/selling experience special.

Kayla R. sold a home in Cedar Falls, Iowa

Karen was amazing! She was always happy to help and gave her true opinions on the houses, which was nice because we could tell that she was there for us as homebuyers and not just herself. She was so helpful at anytime we had a question(even when she was on vacation!) we were first time home buyers so we had a good amount of them. She made it a great experience, when buying a new home can be stressful. Highly recommend her to anyone buying a new home!
