"The above rating categories do not begin to reflect what a professional and stellar agent Karen Thelin truly is. I met Karen when she was hosting an open house at a property that would soon become my home. Immediately, I was sold on both the home and Karen as my agent. Purchasing a home (particularly in California) is a daunting prospect, but Karen always made me feel very at ease through the entire process, including some rather substantial bumps that emerged during the mortgage underwriting process. Even though this was not technically Karen's responsibility, she constantly championed for me and kept the mortgage broker focused and on task. I never felt the slightest bit of trepidation with Karen by my side throughout the process. She's a seasoned communicator, a skilled negotiator, and an overall fun person to work with!"

"Karen was very professional handling the sale of my 96 year old Mother's condo with sensitivity. She showed compassion as she explained paperwork and process. She was responsive to my emails, answering them in a reasonable turn around. Within the first week an offer was accepted and the HOA rejected it on HOA by-laws. Karen then scheduled another Open House and in the next week another offer was presented that matched the first offer. Both were considerably more than the asking price. I was confident in her expertise and would recommend her to others."
