I cannot say enough positive things about Karen Phillips. My wife and I were concerned that we'd have trouble selling our home because the school system in our previous town had declined significantly due to funding shortfalls. We also did not want to have our two young children (ages 3 and 5) attend a troubled school with overcrowded classes. Karen came to our first meeting with a comprehensive game plan already in place. We were really impressed with her professionalism and she had all the market analysis done so we could make an informed decision. She told us how to stage our home and we received ten offers in two days. We didn't have an open house because there were too many offers and all of them were at or above asking price. Karen was able to talk my wife off the ledge several times when the process became stressful and I'm pretty sure they are best friends now. We ended up accepting an offer that was 9% above the asking price, which allowed us to purchase a new home that was more expensive than we could otherwise afford. Karen is an absolute pitbull who will always make sure her clients get the best deal possible. She makes other realtors look like amateurs. More importantly, Karen is great people and truly cares about her clients. Karen Phillips 100% exceeded our expectations and definitely got the job done! Highly recommend!!
Karen Phillips is an excellent realtor! Extremely knowledgeable of the local market and real estate process. She held my hand from listing to closing and even a year and half after, went out of her way above and beyond to help me out with an issue I had. I highly recommend Karen she will not disappoint.
I used a different realtor at the start of my journey, and that experience made me almost give up trying to find a home. When I met Karen at an open house, I knew after one conversation she was the realtor I needed. She made the process so easy, she communicated often and effectively. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
From beginning to end, Karen made the listing of my childhood home as effortless as possible. She provided us with helpful feedback on how to list our house and things we could do to help ensure we got the most value for it. She also was a great source for references for handymen, electricians, painters, etc. She really knows the area and has great connections. Of course she had her attorney that she recommended for our sale, which again made everything seamless. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend Karen!
