I love this one personal story a married couple shared in a review - I helped the couple sell their home of 35 years, undoubtedly a tender chapter in their lives. As the couple stated, "Kara guided us through the entire process with amazing skill and expertise...and she did it with deep respect for us. She knew the great family memories we were saying goodbye to." I made them feel that they were "not just another listing" and that they mattered. I was invested in their welfare and not merely the commission.  - hjelter. Bought and sold a home in 2017 in Village, Carlsbad, CA 92018.
