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.

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.

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!

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
