Testimonials
"Kara was exceptional to work with! She provided a clear and straightforward plan to help us sell our home within our timeline. She made us feel comfortable from the start and was always available to answer questions, since we were new to this process. She went above and beyond marketing our property and had extensive knowledge of the local market to price our home right. We ended up selling our home above asking and would recommend working with Kara to all!"
-Laura- Seller, Client
"We used Kara to buy our house and she was amazing to work with. She had very good availability, often able to get us in to see a house within 24 hours of it being on the market, usually the day of. Her response time to emails and txts was also reliable, usually within 1 hour to respond. We really felt like she was on our side, and wanted us to find the perfect house for us. She didn't try and sell us on any homes that weren't a good fit. She asked great questions at each house we walked through, to help us process our feelings on the house and if it would be the one for us. her positive attitude and light hearted demeaner took all the stress out of the process and made us really look forward to each walk through. When it came time to make an offer she walked us through the process, and helped us negotiate with the sellers. We can't say enough good things about Kara, she will be the first person we call if we ever decide to move."
-Michael - Buyer, Client
"I wish I have more houses to sell/buy, so I could hire Kara again. My wife and I sold our Andover house by Kara and would do it a again. She is professional, knowledgeable and down to earth. Kara provided extraordinary guidance and confidence as she lead us through the marketing and selling process. Kara listened to what we wanted and provided appropriate advice, which resulted in a win-win-win sale. Kara was patient and determined. She held numerous open houses. We were proud to know Kara would be representing us and our home. Kara was also a great resource for contractors and other resources as needed. We highly recommend Kara without hesitation. She is a perfect agent."
-David- Seller, Client
"We recently listed a family home with Kara. This was the second time we worked with her to buy/sell a home. Our first experience with Kara went extremely well as she found us a home in our hometown of Andover that we fell in love with. The second time was much more of a challenge. We were upfront with Kara about the problems that came with selling our childhood home, and she didn't hesitate to jump onboard. She couldn't have been more professional, helping us navigate all the bumps in the road. Kara's professionalism and knowledge of the market is outstanding. Our home landed exactly where she recommended we list it . I would recommend Kara to anyone looking to buy or sell as we have done both with her very successfully. Her knowledge, professionalism, honesty and integrity shine through in every interaction with her. Sit back , listen to Kara, give your opinion, and then do exactly as she says. You cannot go wrong! We love working with Kara Ross!"
