Kara Courtney • True North Associates at Windermere Carlsbad Village Dr, Carlsbad

Let me start this by saying that Kara is more than a 5 star rating. She is just simply amazing. She is very professional, an expert in her field, has all the much needed connection, strategies and highly effective and efficient in everything that she does. We just completed our house purchase with her help, this went quite smooth and easy despite the very complex realty market at this time. Kara and her team is just so great to work with. She is very patient, supportive and always has the best interest of her clients as a priority. We are so grateful and will highly recommend Kara to anyone who needs help in buying or selling their properties. She is the Best!

If you're looking for a realtor, look no further. Kara is such an amazing realtor. We were first time home buyers and she made the process very easy. She made sure that we understood the buying process, especially since we were using our VA loan. She is very knowledgeable and very detail oriented. She looked at EVERYTHING when she showed us houses and made sure nothing was overlooked. We didn't live locally, so it everything was done virtually. We did make one visit and had gotten our 1st offer accepted but we decided not to through with it as the house had many repairs to be done. We put in an offer for another home and it got accepted.. it was THE one. Kara made sure everything was perfect. She communicated very well with us and the listing agent and was able to negotiate more than what we had expected. Kara was very flexible, working with our work schedules and communicated us throughout the whole process. Her and her team are very hardworking and truly care for their clients. It wasn't just about selling a home, it was about making sure we were happy in our forever home. Thank you Kara for all that you did for us and helping us find our 1st home 😃

5 STARS for Kara. We had the pleasure of working with her 2 years ago with the purchase of our first home. We decided at the end of 2021 that even though we loved our house it was time to upgrade to something a little bigger. We immediately called Kara and she got to work right away! We needed the proceeds of the sale to buy a new home and Kara told us our options and we listed our home. We were able to sell our house for 45k over and got the buyers to take over our solar loan! Then we had to find a new house! We found our dream home a couple weeks later and got our offer accepted even being contingent on selling! Wow! We followed Kara’s advice and got exactly what we wanted and more. Kara is always attentive, responsive, explains what is happening, friendly and she knows what she is doing. We are very lucky to have found her. 10/10 recommend to anyone who needs/wants an agent who will go above and beyond for their clients.

I knew Kara from her very informative YouTube channel and in the beginning I realized that how professional and supportive she is. I had a wonderful working experience with her and after two weeks searching homes, I got my lovely house. This could not have happened without Kara as a highly-experienced realtor considering the current housing market and its uncertainties. I strongly recommend everyone who needs any assistance related to real estate matters to contact Kara.

Where do we begin. Selling your house can be a scary and challenging time. There were so many details to think about and our home was owned by 2 trusts. After interviewing several real estate agents we chose Kara, because she was professional, knowledgeable, attentive and caring. Her team of people, including the title company, escrow company, painter, termite repair, plumber, electrical, staging, etc. were excellent, very helpful and competitively priced. Kara advised that we do some cosmetic upgrades and staging, and in the end, it was very good advice. She organized and scheduled all the work very efficiently (she even ordered all the appliances and arranged for them to be installed). She was always in contact with us to discuss details. With every issue that came up she had an answer. In the end, we were able to sell our home for much more than we ever thought. There are a million real estate agents…..only one Kara Courtney!

We had a amazing experience with Kara! Kara works hard for her clients and she also knows her stuff! Kara’s marketing ability is such an asset when selling a home. She had great ideas on how to maximize the sale of our house and she was a solid resource of help throughout the whole process. We got many offers on our house that were much higher than our asking price and we ended up accepting a cash offer that was way higher than anything we imagined we could get. We highly recommend Kara to everyone looking to buy or sell!!!

There are so many wonderful things to say about Kara. This review is a little late (this new home owner thing is a lot of work!) but I really want to share how amazing this women is. We first met her about five years ago! She posted on Facebook about wanting to educate people about first time home buyer programs. We met her at a Starbucks and she explained everything to us with such detail. At this point, we were only 20 and just married. We set our goals with her and she educated us on all possibilities and avenues. Over the last five years we’ve kept in touch! My husband and I were ready to purchase our first home this July. We made an offer on a home and got accepted. The process of buying our home did have some hurdles because of the sellers but Kara was always so positive and was always putting our minds at ease. To this day, Kara sends us the cutest gifts! And I of course, spam her with questions about papers I receive in the mail. Needless to say she was always there for us and continues to be! I highly recommend her. She is the definition of cool, calm and collected. Thank you again Kara, for everything! Five years ago, we knew you would be the realtor for us!❤️

Kara provided excellent service to us. She helped us purchase our first home and also helped list and sell our family owned condo at the same time. She was vey professional and courteous throughout the whole process and really made it an enjoyable experience. Her team also provided an excellent home staging and painting service when prepping the condo for sale. I would definitely recommend Kara for anyone looking to buy or sell.

Kara is quite simply amazing! She is very enthusiastic, organized, detailed and responsive. She is extremely knowledgeable both about the ins and outs of helping you buy or sell your home, as well as the local communities and neighborhoods. In my personal experience with Kara she went above and beyond what I ever could have asked for. She helped us navigate a potentially disastrous Escrow process with contingencies intact, and then to close on a home that we love! We have recommended Kara to several other friends who have had similarly wonderful experiences!

WOW, Kara was amazing. She sent me three houses online and the home I was not even looking for popped out at me and I knew I had to have it. Kara used a great plan in negotiating my price, since there were multiple cash offers and I wanted that house more than anything. Kara has a great personality, she is superb to work with, there were NO surprises, and she is helping me find the right people to fix the minor things that need tweaking for me. I think Kara would be a definite asset if you are searching for a quality realtor who knows what she is doing.
