Karyn was our Realtor for the purchase of our first home. My husband and I met her at an Open House, that we showed up to on our bikes, casually dressed like the least serious potential client you could wish for. Karyn, not the least bit phased, politely answered all our questions, without any pressure or hard-sale. We were impressed and immediately felt at ease. In a process that felt completely foreign, it was a huge relief to have someone in our court, clarifying the confusing paperwork, lighting a fire under our mortgage guy when necessary, and reaching out to the sellers Agent to put in a good word for us. We highly recommend Karyn as your Agent to both buy or sell in the Bay Area and surrounding areas. – Shannon & Adam

Working with Karyn was a dream. We were leaving our community of 26 years to nostalgically move across the Bay, to begin a new chapter as empty nesters... seeking a forever home where we could host friends and our growing family for decades to come. Karyn listened intently to what was important to us and, week after week, she showed us options that met many of the items on our (very long) wish list. She was ever-optimistic that we would find "it," even when we were beginning to lose hope. Karyn has a great sense of aesthetic, but looks much deeper than that. She always did a quick assessment of the structural integrity of each property and made sure to point out any concerns to us. She has a way of seeing potential in properties, but isn't afraid to be the one to say "this isn't it." The market is crazy, and we were outbid a few times. When we found 'the one', she strategically helped us write the winning offer and we couldn't be happier. Karyn brings experience, passion, and joy to the home-buying process. She makes a stressful process feel doable. Anyone would be lucky to have her in their corner. – Karen & Dan

Karyn is absolutely amazing! I'm a first time home buyer and you can only imagine the multitude of questions I had going into this process. Karyn was extremely patient and knowledgeable about everything real estate and many communities in the Bay Area! We spent several weekends together, one-on-one, getting a sense of what I could afford, the neighborhoods that were safe, and what I liked style-wise. In the end we found the absolute perfect house in a great area with the best neighbors I could ask for. I would recommend Karyn 1000 times over to anyone considering buying or selling in the Bay area! – Meghan H.

We’ve been working with Karyn for over 15 years . She sold our family home back in 2005, back then it wasn’t common to “stage” our home, but she convinced us it was the right thing to do. The house sold quickly and for a great price.Then in 2019 when we returned to this area she helped us find our forever home. Always available with the best advice and information to make the transaction as smooth as possible – Phil & Susan

About Karyn
With a lifelong passion for real estate and architecture, my journey in the industry began at a young age. I vividly recall accompanying my father, an independent builder in the East Bay hills for over 25 years, to job sites. Those early experiences, armed with a hammer, nails, and scrap wood, allowed me to immerse myself in the world of construction. As we examined blueprints together, my father patiently explained the intricate details of foundation pouring and stair placements. Although I didn't grasp it all at the time, witnessing the transformation of raw materials into something beautiful ignited a deep appreciation within me.

Since 2003, I have proudly held a Realtor license and have consistently delivered exceptional service to my clients. As a member of the esteemed International Diamond Society at Coldwell Banker, I have been recognized among the top-producing agents in the Bay Area. Additionally, I received the Bronze and Gold Awards in 2018 and 2019 respectively, while affiliated with Keller Williams Realty.

Real estate captivates me in every aspect. The relationships forged with my clients, the exploration of diverse architectural styles, and the pursuit of good design are all sources of immense joy and fulfillment. Guiding individuals towards achieving their real estate goals is an honor I hold dear. Having been a lifelong resident of the Bay Area, I take great pleasure in introducing people to Northern California, showcasing the remarkable lifestyle and opportunities available here. Equally gratifying is helping sellers secure the highest possible price for their homes.

In this ever-evolving industry, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to perfection, but I am well-equipped with the qualities necessary for success as a Realtor. Honesty, enthusiasm, and innovation have been the cornerstones of my achievements. Recognizing that buying or selling a home represents one of the most significant financial decisions in a person's life, I am committed to ensuring the process is not only seamless but also enjoyable. I continually educate myself on the evolving needs of the industry to provide my clients with the best possible service.

Join me on this remarkable journey, where your real estate aspirations become reality. Together, we will navigate the intricacies of the market with honesty, expertise, and a focus on your ultimate satisfaction.
