Karen Armstrong

After considering listing our Tucker home as By Owner, we interviewed several professional realtors to see if that might be a better fit for our transaction. Karen Armstrong was recommended by several friends, so we gave her a call. Karen came to our house within an hour and discussed her sales process. Unlike other realtors, she didn’t seem rushed, she didn’t seem desperate, and she didn’t seem pushy to get our listing. Instead, she seemed interested in looking at our house, explaining how we could improve our chances for a profitable sale, explaining the current and near future market, and explaining how she would go about selling our house. We thanked her for her time and interviewed some other realtors, all the while making many of the improvements Karen suggested. A few weeks later, we called Karen again, and again she quickly made herself readily available to discuss listing our house. Again, she was not pushy or desperate. She looked at our schedule and we discussed calendar dates and timeframes. She was specific on when she would advertise the house as “Coming Soon”, when the listing would “Go Live”, and when an “Open House” would be scheduled if needed. She was specific on when the “For Sale” sign would be placed in our yard and how “Flyers” would be placed in a box near the street for prospective drive-by buyers. Karen was also insistent that our empty house be staged to highlight the positives and gives buyers the ability to see the potential of our interior. We signed a listing agreement and Karen got busy! Karen arranged the staging which came out beautiful and cost us nothing-payment was arranged between Karen and the Staging Company. She had a professional photographer take interior and exterior pictures, and again at no cost to us. The best was that everything Karen said she was going to do, SHE DID! The house was listed as Coming Soon, a large For Sale sign was placed in our yard, and directional signs were placed from major roads. Excellent pictures were added to our listing and our property went Live on the day Karen said it would. The next 4 days were a whirlwind of property showings and buyer offerings. Karen managed the communication with the realtors of many prospective buyers, and on the fifth day of the listing, we were provided a detailed list of 8 potential buyer contracts, all 8 well above our listing price. Karen also handled the sensitive communication with several other non-competitive offers. Sifting through the 8 competitive offers is where Karen’s knowledge and experience really came through. She explained the particulars of the buyer’s offers and made this very difficult process an easy task. And in the end, when the selected buyer wavered on one of the contract terms, again it was Karen’s knowledge and experience that saved the day. We ultimately closed at a price $25,000 higher than our listing price, and significantly higher that similar homes in our neighborhood. I look back and know that we made the right decision in selecting Karen to sell our home, and through her knowledge and expertise, Karen got us more money with less stress than any other realtor could have, and in the end, that’s what it’s all about!

Between the two of us, my husband and I have bought and sold numerous homes. There hasn't been another realtor who is better than Karen! She exceeded all of our expectations and made the experience of selling our home the most pleasant of all of our transactions so far. Buying or selling a home can be very stressful and tense but Karen and her team created an incredibly positive experience for us. In fact, the most positive to date. From the moment we met Karen, she set herself apart through her professionalism, knowledge and preparedness. She made us feel very comfortable and confident that she could help us successfully sell our home. And she did and within the first couple of days we had it listed. Even if it had taken longer, we would feel no differently. She will go above and beyond to help you with your transaction and will be completely honest with you about the property you are buying or selling. Karen offers services that surpass that of other agents. In our opinion you will not find a better agent. If we could give her 10 stars, we would! Please work with Karen Armstrong, you will be so happy you did.

Karen was outstanding. We especially appreciated the work she and her team did up front to streamline the sales process. We were under contract in less than two days. She has over 20 years of sales success in the Tucker market and we understand why. A joy to work with.

Karen is a great realtor. She helped me sell my house. She is very patient, and she really has a good understanding of what buyers are looking for; Pricing, valuations and presentation including staging. She is really good at marketing, and I highly recommend her.

Karen and Katherine were amazing to work with for my entire home buying process. Both were incredibly knowledgeable about the entire Atlanta area, willing to show me places everywhere from Cumming to Midtown to Marietta to Duluth. As a first time home buyer, they explained the process easily, held my hand throughout the entire process, and were incredibly patient as I waited to find the right home. Couldn't recommend them enough as an agent!
