"We would like to take this opportunity to recommend Karen Tannous as a realtor. Karen has been our realtor twice. Our first experience with Karen resulted in bidding wars for both the sale and purchase of our homes. We were successful in both, thanks to Karen’s knowledge of the local market and excellent communication skills. For the sale of our second home, we only considered Karen as our realtor. She was equally adept at selling our home as she was at buying one. Selling a home in our area during the summer of 2017 was no small chore. However, Karen held several open houses and followed up with potential clients to solicit feedback, which resulted in the timely sale of our home. Furthermore, she managed to negotiate a significant reduction in the purchase price of our new home. It is our opinion that Karen Tannous is very professional and that she knows the real estate business. She is also very personable, and we enjoyed having her as our agent. We will certainly use her if we need her services again and are pleased to highly recommend her to any and all of our friends.

"Karen is great to work with, very professional with attention to detail. She easily can access clients needs, found this location in a day after I told her what I was looking for. Karen was very helpful with the entire process and offered contractors to work with some finishing details. I am pleased with the results."

“During our MLS Search of properties and realtors, Karen and Andrew’s Website repeatedly caught our attention. Once we decided to proceed with buying a new home, we interviewed several realtors and immediately knew Karen and Andrew were the team we wanted to work with. Karen responded promptly to our requests and provided all answers to our questions as well as some additional information which she thought would be useful to use. Although it was a sluggish market and selling our house was certainly challenging, Karen and Andrew met the challenge quickly and with complete success. The marketing was extremely well done, showcasing the features of our home superbly and the advice we received on how to best show our property was always positive and spot on. We always felt that our questions, input and suggestions were important and were met with patience, assurance and professionalism by Karen and Andrew. Karen was extremely easy to contact and all correspondence was promptly returned so we never felt abandoned in any situation. Throughout the entire process, we were kept fully informed of what was happening with the home we purchased and the home we sold. As a result, we won the bidding war on our new home and had multiple offers on the house we sold. We couldn’t be happier with the entire outcome of our real estate experience! We truly have enjoyed our entire buying/selling process with Karen and Andrew and will certainly recommend them to anyone selling – or buying – a home in this area." Jordan & Crystal N.

"My wife and I just sold our listing through Karen and Andrew Tannous. It has been a great pleasure dealing with such professionals. We had our listing with a different realtor and then decided to go with Karen after an experience that gave us an unfavorable view of the Real Estate world. Karen has proven that even when the market is unpredictable, her communication and offers of ‘Open Houses” meant that we always were aware of what was going on. We believe her positive attitude made this sale possible. We would definitely recommend Karen to anyone who is looking for a realtor. We will keep in touch with Karen and use her expertise down the road. She really understands her clients and works hard to follow up on showings." Thank You Karen and Andrew, Dal and Hardeep Dhatt

To Future home buyers looking for a real estate agent: It is a pleasure to wrtie this letter of reference for Karen Tannous. For most people buying or selling a house; in our particular case selling, the age old question, "How do we find an agent that we can trust? In our case, word of mouth, asking various people that were selling, or had sold, who did you use and what was the experience and the result? We decided to meet with 2 different agents. One of the agents had been recommeded by a family member who had recently sold her house, the other agent was recommended to us by an acquaintance who had recently sold her home aswell. Part of our selection process for the 2 agents was to weigh their experience and exposure in the area we lived. We also wanted to ensure we felt comfortable and could talk frankly with our agent and could trust the individual After all we had a significant investment we would be entrusting them to sell. We phoned each agent and discussed our needs to sell our house. This prompted a personal meeting between us and the agent. Our final decision, through much consideration, was Karen Tannous. Karen came totally prepared and ready to list our house on the spot. Her "presentation in print was impressive", having pulled up previous information on our house, pictures, detailed information on sales in the area; nothing was left out or overlooked. Our first impressions of Karen SOLD US, both personally and professionally. After sitting down, discussing Karen's objectives on selling our house, and our expectations, we signed off on what was to be a very "un-stressful selling experience". Karen made a few suggestions on what we could do to make our home ready for sale. A few simple changes made a huge difference. The upside of the house showings is the house never looked so good, the downside, well it's a lot of work. We also had 2 small dogs to consider, and Karen always made sure we had good notice to show in order to have the house looking its best. The one time Karen could not make showing, Karen's associate, Andrew, was there to show the house. He too was professionally presented and well versed on the home as he prepared the marketing materials for it. We had a flurry of hsowings the first 2 weeks, a number of offers and the SOLD sign went up after 15 days! Karen handled everything with complete professionalism throughout, even the low-ball offers. The detail of the sale were worked out including closing dates that really worked for us. The odd isuse cropped up before closing, Karen dealt with those issues in our best interests, and there were no issues that couldn't be resolved. We discussed staying in a bed and breakfast for about a month so we could move into our new home at our leisure; Karen recommended a B&B where we ended up staying which totally suited our needs AND accepted dogs. Would we call Karen again to sell our house and help us purchase one? "ABSOLUTLEY!" Would we recommend Karen to family, friends and others? "WITHOUT A DOUBT!" The sale for both Mary Ann and me was the most un-stressful selling experience we ever had, and we bought and sold few homes. If you are contemplating a real estate agent, you can be "very sure" that Karen is your best choice, one who will work for your best interests, either buying or selling. Sincerely and with regards! Ray & Mary Ann Aldus
