More about Karen

I come from a background in fashion design, but my passion for creativity has led me to real estate.

Fashion grew into a love for interior design, which led to enthusiastic renovating and DIY. I then took on a project of buying, renovating and reselling a home. The whole process was exciting, exhilarating and had its heart stopping moments. I realised that being an estate agent is not about selling houses, it is about selling a lifestyle, making dreams a reality and helping people secure their biggest asset investment. And I wanted to be a part of that.

Now I use my creativity to market property to its’ best visual effect and build a strong database, that will match home sellers to keen buyers, at the right time and the right price, and ensure that both will be happy to entrust me with their next investment.

I chose Harcourts to follow my dream, because their reputation for impeccable service matched my desire to deliver it. Their ongoing training, market leading technology and value-based principles, assured me that I made the right decision.

I look forward to helping you relax and rest, assured that your property is in very good hands.
