WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Karen was very helpful in finding me a perfect place in Solana Beach. I told her what I was looking for, which was very difficult to find, and when the exact house became available, she was all over it. Karen is very experienced in the process and is an excellent negotiator. I would highly recommend her!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Karen is, hands down, the best agent in San Diego. She helped us close a complicated deal and went the extra mile to keep us safe. Unlike the majority of agents, she actually understands the law and has many years of experience. Aside from her professionalism, she is also a very smart, honest, and energetic person. We highly recommend Karen to everyone.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My wife and I moved from Carlsbad to PQ. Karen was the most amazing realtor we've ever had! She helped us sell our old place and buy the new one and managed to juggle everything through a very complex process. We cannot believe the effort and lengths she went through to help us at every step of the way! We have never seen anyone work so hard to help us sell and buy. I cannot recommend Karen highly enough...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I recommend Karen highly. She knows this business inside and out and does the job of a realtor with finesse. Karen and I began working together in July of this year (2011) and on 10/5/11 I closed on a townhome that far surpasses my wildest dreams of what I would be able to purchase as my "post-divorce" home. Aside from her technical knowledge of the business and her superb negotiating skills, I was espec...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My family and I were relocating to San Diego from Philadelphia when we were put in touch with Karen to help us find a new home to rent. We were clueless about the numerous areas and neighborhoods in San Diego and Karen was able to explain the pros and cons of several areas. We described our needs and desires to Karen and she was able to locate the perfect area that met our needs and found several propert...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I have held a CA Real Estate Broker License for over 37 years, with licensed sales associates working under my supervision. In a recent Real Estate transaction, which I considered complicated, Karen Van Ness represented the property of the seller, while I represented the Buyer. It was not an easy escrow for the seller. They were undergoing extreme emotional and physical hardship, which, within the year f...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

A smart knowledgeable worker and a loyal friend; describe her the best. Thanks, Karen for helping us find our dream home; which we aspired and thought of someday, and today is the reality. Thanks again for making it possible for us! Also, your patience and dedication are beyond the mention. In a foreign country where everyone seems different culturally it is difficult to trust someone and describe one's ...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My husband and I received only two months' notice that we'd be relocating to North County San Diego by my employer. We hired a realtor over the telephone and flew in with a week to find a house, but from my first meeting, I realized I couldn't trust this person with this purchase, and she had insufficient experience to know what was important to a middle-aged couple with children. I met Karen the next da...
