"Karl was very patient in looking for our dream house. It was awesome to work with an agent who worked for you. Karl did a great job making our first home purchase extremely easy by explaining everything to us and available at any time to answer questions. I wish Karl was available to consult on anything I want to buy."
★★★★★
"Met Karl through an online listing. Karl was professional and enthusiastic from the first phone call. He worked hard to help find my son a home in a very competitive market. He went out of his way to help us with a lot of final logistics. I would highly recommend Karl for all your home buying and selling needs."

"Karl and Ryan walked us through every step, making practical, doable suggestions along the way. Karl was never pushy, always honest, and very mindful of our needs and limitations as a family with young children. When they gave us the option to sell as-is or to use the Compass concierge to do some updates before selling, they presented it very clearly, with no pressure to choose the upgrades. We took Karl's advice, and went forward with the upgrades. Not only that, he was with us every step of the way, coordinating with everyone to make sure everything was done with quality. In the end, we sold well over asking price (more than we ever imagined we'd get)."

"Over the years I have bought and sold a few homes and Karl is one of the best real estate agents we have ever encountered. We met Karl when we responded to a listing we saw on Zillow. Karl called us back within the hour to discuss what type of property we were looking for and our timeframe for scheduling an appointment. Karl and his colleague set appointments for us to view 4 downtown condos. He clearly listened to us because each of the units he showed us met our list of specifications in different ways. He is a super agent with great listening skills combined with excellent follow through. Our search was focused on a condo in downtown San Diego and his knowledge about each of the buildings as well as the active inventory was really impressive. I cannot recommend Karl highly enough."

"I'm really fortunate to have met Karl. I was shopping for homes previously with another agent that was too pushy. My girlfriend randomly met Karl at an open house, and a couple of days later, he was showing me houses. He has a calm and laid back demeanor which I clicked very well with. He let me take my time looking at properties and listened well to help get a better understanding of what I was looking for. When I found the place I was looking for, he helped me every step of the way. He walked me through negotiating offers, setting up a home inspection, renegotiating for repairs, and escrow paperwork. He was very knowledgeable and prompt. I had so many questions and must have called him a million times, but he was always there to help and never once seemed annoyed with me. He got me the house I wanted at the price I wanted. I would recommend Karl to anyone looking to buy or sell a home and will definitely work with him again in the future."
