One of the most knowledgeable Realtors around. I was second in line for our dream house and the seller was contingent and needed to sell quickly. The buyer first in line was a teacher that had a schools first loan. She new they (schools first) wouldn't fund in 21 days (time required for seller not to loose his shirt) and probably saved them both from a really messy situation. She deliberated for 4 hours with the sellers and is the sole reason we are here in our dream home now. If you want a powerhouse in your corner, If you want someone thats actually worth the money in this county then get in touch with these Girls. They are Super easy to work with and they know all the issues and history for this area..
Truly great experience. Kara and Joan know the market, work extremely hard on your behalf, and are communicative. We had a unique home with some unique circumstances and they got our home sold in less than 30-days, at above asking price, and with the absolute bare minimum amount of stress on us or our family. Lots of folks sell real estate, few of them do it well, and fewer still do it with integrity and class. Our family is grateful we had Kara and Joan on our team. Thank you again!
Kara Calannio and her mother Joan were my realtors for selling my condo in Dana Point. Kara worked hard for me. I always knew that she was on my side and looking out for me during the whole process. That's important because selling a house can make you feel very vulnerable. I highly recommend Kara and Joan. They are a great team, and know what they're doing. A definite five-star team. I hope I never move again, but if I do, I will turn to them again for help, that's for sure.
Kara is topnotch ! She went above and beyond with assisting me in the sale of my home. I was under the wire to get it sold so my new home purchase would finalize. Kara made the whole process easy and stress-free for me remaining positive and professional every step of the way. My home sold swiftly with her focused attention. With Kara on your side, you are sure to get the best service there is !
Kara and Joan are my " GO TO " agents ! Their experience and knowledge in real estate is off the charts. I've purchased two homes with them in the past 5 years and recently sold one of them within one week. I look forward to working with them in the future . Patricia Graves
Kara and her team helped me for the second time with the process of this difficult yet exciting moment of buying a house. Step by step she was there helping me from the beginning to the end.
Kara is a smart and hard working professional and and overall an excellent person. I highly recommend Kara and her team!!
Working with Kara Calannio is always a pleasure. She is one the most professional and responsive Realtors I have ever had the privilege to work with. Kara is a seasoned Professional when it comes to Real Estate--her background and experience in mortgage make her even more unique and valuable! Integrity, Honesty, and Knowledge are words that best describe Kara. I would want Kara representing me in any Real Estate transaction!
The fact that we had an offer that met our asking price before we even held an open house says it all. From the beginning, Kara and Joan offered professional turn key services with expert advice and assistance regarding every aspect of selling our home. This included prepping and tastefully staging the rooms and exteriors, targeted marketing and expert handling of the bids based on an extensive knowledge of the industry and the area.
They showed an impressive sense of urgency in getting everything that needed to be done completed on or ahead of schedule, including coordinating workers for repairs, inspections and cleaning. Their photographer was outstanding, with the photos turning out so beautifully we hesitated to sell for a moment!
The open house attracted over 100 potential buyers. Within a week we received several offers at or above our asking price. The combination of their many years of experience, attention to detail and good old fashioned hard work certainly paid off for us. Their can do spirit and positive attitude went a long way in easing the stress of selling our home. I would whole heartedly recommend this duo to anyone considering selling their home
Kara, was wonderful to work with. She helped me navigate the difficult process of buying in Laguna Beach, her local knowledge was definitely an asset to have on my side
