As a realtor, Karen provided me with knowledgeable, reassuring and clear direction when it came to finding a property. She was friendly, down to earth, and very responsive to my needs. The whole process was smooth from beginning to end with Karen’s assistance. I would highly recommend her for your real estate requirements!

Karen was very patient with my elderly mother (and myself) in selling her home. She was very helpful
from beginning to end. Including finding help for us to pack 60 years of STUFF. We were kept in the loop
on Market prices and Karen negotiated the best price possible at the time. All in all, Karen was on our
side and would recommend and use her again ! Many Thanks Karen !

Couldn't have been more satisfied with the service that Karen and her team provided during the purchase
my first property. Karen will make it happen, no BS, she thrives in negotiation and intimately knows good
timing. When to move, when to offer, what to offer etc... I felt incredibly supported during the closure of
my deal with continual follow ups and services. Karen is an expert in the market and I am grateful to have
had her work with me!

Karen was great at managing three recent deals I was involved in. I interviewed a lot of realtors to sell my
unique Calgary home, wondering if it would be on the market a year or more. Karens strategy worked
well, and it sold very quickly. Even though she was swamped busy, her and her team are always responsive
and professional and go the extra mile.
If you want to get the job done, Karen is your go-to gal. She was really effective.

We thought we could sell our home ourselves, however, after a couple of weeks we soon realized that we needed guidance, expertise and someone who was proactive with the slow real estate market. We then met Karen who took the time to listen; to understand our wants and needs. We had an offer in six days after listing our home with her. We could never have handled the negotiations and sale of our home without her professionalism and commitment. We would highly recommend Karen as an agent to friends and neighbors.

This is the second home that Karen has sold for us in Calgary in the last 18 months. Even with the current market being what it is, Karen and her team have worked tirelessly to get us the best price possible. Her staging suggestions gave us the advantage over similar real estate for sale in the area. We are totally satisfied with Karen and would highly recommend her for anyone either buying or selling a home in the Calgary area!

My husband and I feel very fortunate to have met Karen when we did this past May.
We had had our house listed for over 4 months with little or no activity, while we sat and watched the market steadily decline and the price of our house plummet.
We needed to do something different and quickly. Enter Karen – She was recommended to me by a past client and we couldn’t have been happier!
Karen set a realistic price, proposed an aggressive marketing strategy and made recommendations re: staging.
All of which led to more action within the first week then we had the previous 4 months. Numerous viewings with multiple offers to follow.
Did we get what we wanted when we first listed, no, the market was not there…. but we were very close to the price the Karen recommended and the house sold within 30 days with a quick possession date and limited conditions.
In a difficult buyers’ market it is imperative to have an expert on your side selling your house and Karen is just that “an expert”.

"Karen understands the fluctuating market and provides realistic and timely information during the entire selling cycle. She has an established network to bring in buyers and is a great negotiator getting the deal done. My house sold in 6 days in a market in turmoil! It was a pleasure working with Karen throughout the process and I would highly recommend her."

We recently purchased a residence from a friend and because of the circumstances were put in a position where our home had to be sold quickly in a very unkind sellers market. We knew we had to find a realtor that knew what was happening in the area and that would give us the best effort on our behalf.
Karen Fawcett was the realtor that we chose and in retrospect was a very good decision. Karen explained what was happening in the market and gave us a realistic price based on a “very unfavourable sellers market”. She worked very hard at marketing our home and gave us constant updates so we knew what the interest level was regarding our property. Through ongoing contact with potential buyers and open houses, she was successful in selling our home.
We cannot thank Karen enough for her professional manner through the whole process and would definitely recommend her if you are buying or selling a home or property.
Respectfully submitted,
Patti and Larry O’Connor

We recently engaged Karen Fawcett as our Listing Agent to sell our home in Altadore. Karen walks the talk. She listened, heard our concerns and presented a realistic picture of what selling our home would look like. She is knowledgeable about the current market conditions. She advised, delivered and followed through with an aggressive marketing plan. Our home sold in 2 days with multiple offers. Karen is honest, trustworthy, skillful and professional. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone buying or selling a home.

Karen also negotiated hard and fair, always representing me with integrity and honesty, while pushing the deal to closure. It was a pleasure to work with Karen and I highly recommend her.

Karen sold my house in a declining real estate market and under difficult conditions. Karen used her marketing expertise as well as persistence to follow up on every lead that came her way or that she herself found/created. This culminated in a successful sale of the property at a price I was satisfied with. She always communicated effectively with all parties, and negotiated on behalf of and in the best interests of her client at all times. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Karen is an extraordinary realtor – rigorous, energetic, personable and effective. Her difference begins with being extremely proactive. She met me in the process of “calling around her listings”, that is, networking among neighbors of a property she had on the market – I have worked with many realtors and never met one who would do this. It continues with her systematic approach to marketing a property – methodical, disciplined, and hardworking, pepped with occasional flights of inspiration on small changes that make a big difference. She is acutely sensitive to the human, emotional, life changing aspects of changing one’s principal residence. At deal time she brings to the table skills of an experienced negotiator and mediator. In short she is the full package. Call her, and if you need details, me

Before selling my house in Altadore, I spoke with a neighbor who had used Karen Fawcett to sell his house, as well as to purchase a new one West of the city. He told me about her outstanding commitment to her clients, and he highly recommended her. I contacted Karen on a Monday afternoon, and by the end of the week my house was sold for more than I had expected. Her knowledge of the market in my area was exceptional, and she explained in detail every step of the contract and selling process. I have already recommended her to several of my friends, and neighbors

Karen is an incredible realtor! This past summer she helped us sell our condo and purchase of our new home. Her guidance and insight was incredibly valuable throughout the process. With Karen’s support we sold our condo in five hours, and we would not have gotten the excellent price on our new home without her guidance during negotiations. Karen is polished, professional and a pleasure to work with. We benefited immensely from her expertise and would highly recommend her to any buyer or seller.

Karen took the time to find out what exactly I was looking for, even when I wasn’t quite sure myself. She arranged back to back viewings, with time in-between to process and discuss. I never felt pressured, but felt supported and empowered, both with information and the final decision. Karen brings energy, enthusiasm, and discernment to the process of buying a home. I will not hesitate to use her for my next real estate transaction.

Karen was very flexible and available for my erratic schedule and scouted out properties for me in order to not waste my time. I would recommend Karen for her professionalism and commitment in helping to successfully facilitate both transactions.
