★★★★★"After quickly selling our home of 30 years in New Jersey and needing to find a place to live within a 2-month period in South Florida, we were very apprehensive and wanted to find a realtor that was honest, not high-pressure, and extremely knowledgeable about the current market. A friend in Florida highly recommended that we contact Karen Sklawer, and we are forever grateful that we met Karen! Not only did we select a new construction home to buy but Karen also found us a rental to live in while our new home is being built. The timing was perfect! Karen is a true professional, very detailed oriented, a good listener, and is very calming! She helped make our transition as stress-free as possible. She always went above and beyond and is a great resource person. Karen’s communication skills are excellent from start to finish. She was always accessible for questions and she stayed on top of everything! Karen is the sweetest person with a very kind demeanor. She truly cares about each client, is very respectful, and is also covid-sensitive. My husband and I highly recommend Karen without reservation for all your real estate needs. She is by far the BEST realtor out there and far exceeded our expectations!"
—Laurie & Al P.

★★★★★"Karen has been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She is very professional, extremely reliable, and knowledgeable on the market. She doesn't just sit back and wait for your house to sell. She seeks out buyers. And, she always returns your phone call immediately. She is genuinely concerned about assisting her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home."


★★★★★"This is my first time buying a home in the US, Karen came highly recommended and made this experience not only memorable but worth it. She is the true definition of above and beyond and I am truly grateful for her professional service during this journey. I would highly recommend her and use her services again in the future."

About Karen
A lifetime resident of South Florida, Karen Sklawer is intimately familiar with the lifestyle, culture, and economics of the Southwest Florida market. She represents buyers, sellers, and investors in luxury and pre-construction real estate throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, with a focus on Parkland, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Boynton Beach.

Karen operates with her clients’ best interests at the top of her list. There is no greater thrill for her than matching clients with their dream home or facilitating a smooth, hassle-free transaction. She puts in the necessary time to get to know her clients, understand their goals, and develop a plan to get the best fit for a buyer or the highest price for a seller. Karen’s entrepreneurial modus operandi and love of sales coupled with her tenure as an art consultant are one of her greatest strengths as a real estate advisor – not only does she know how to sell, but she also has a highly trained eye when it comes to envisioning space, staging and decorating the home.

Paired with the robust Compass technology and service offering, including data and analytics software, staging, renovations, and a team of HQ marketing advisors, Karen is equipped with top-of-the-line tools and services that facilitate a hassle-free and enjoyable transaction, further enhancing the experience of working with her.

She makes real estate exciting, not stressful.

In a bustling market where the sun shines almost every day, Karen is a lifetime proponent of South Florida living. She loves to offer advice and expertise to clients looking to move into the area from out of state, as well as residents looking to move locally from one county to another. A lifetime resident of South Florida, Karen lives in Parkland, FL where she has a huge 55+ client base that has similar motivations to move. In her off time, she is actively involved in her community as the Head of the Cooking Club and a volunteer with various charities in the community. She plays tennis and pickleball, and she loves to explore the expansive restaurant scene in her area. Her favorite activity is spending time with her five granddaughters.
