"Knowledgeable, attentive, detailed, available and a pleasure to work with." ~ The Gores

"Karen really knows "The Lake". She is very sharp, honest, exceptionally skilled and really knows property values. Karen helped us extensively with the listing price decision. We ultimately arrived at a very informed listing price decision that we blew out of the water in the first 24 hours. The higher sales price combined with a shorter listing time made working with Karen the smartest real estate decision we've ever made." ~ Robert Kraus

"Exceptional. Karen wasn't just interested in finding us a house. She was interested in finding us the right house and was willing to put in the effort and time to make it happen. She treated us like family and I'm astounded by how much she truly cared about our happiness. I would not work with anyone else in the Portland market. Karen is exceptional. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" ~ The Bacons

"You are AMAZING, Karen! Thank you for being the best realtor! Your high level of experience and guidance was evident in the entire selling process. Thank you for being very detail oriented and helping us to prioritize what needed to be done (and not) in order to put our house on the market. You priced our home accurately and we got multiple offers in the first weekend! So awesome! We also love that you weren't pushy and made us feel super comfortable. Honestly, you were so attentive we felt like we were your only clients. Thank you for being so professional and kind, making this the best real estate experience we have ever had. Thank you so, so much!" ~ Mark & Kimberly Sandquist

"By far the best service I've received -- and I have bought 6 homes to date. Karen was amazing and went above and beyond." ~ GB

"Caring, thoughtful, creative and specific to our needs. We just wish we could look again... Karen made it so fun and easy. She took the stress out of it for us. Karen worked with our very specific needs and budget and found us the perfect home. I was amazed how many properties she found in our preferred area and price range. The experience was wonderful." ~Corey Fivecoat

"Karen was instrumental in negotiating our deal -- at a critical point. A meeting with the seller was contentious and unproductive, so my wife and I left the meeting prepared to find another house. Karen stayed for two hours and hammered out a deal the seller ultimately accepted -- more than $100K less than his original asking price."

"Karen listened carefully to ascertain our priorities then provided options to satisfy them. She was diligent on follow up and flexible with our 1,000 mile commute schedule. Always upbeat and on top of details. She is obviously well-respected by others in her profession. In Karen we found not only a trustworthy realtor, but a new friend. We recommend Karen McLaughlin highly." ~ Robin May

"Karen went above and beyond several times to help expedite closing. In one case I was traveling internationally for work and she scheduled and attended multiple appointments. Thank you, Karen!" ~ Hugo Saleh

"Karen went above and beyond what most agents do to help client's moves transpire smoothly. Top notch!" ~ Val Rich

"Professional, prompt, as promised. Karen is a great pleasure to work with. Hard to improve on perfection." ~ Ian Pitts

"Karen is in a class all her own. From the beginning she was proactive in searching for the home that would fit our growing family needs and was super attentive to the feedback I gave about what we liked and didn't. She was patient while we found the right time to list and make the move, and that was huge! She was available to show us homes in between our busy opposite schedules, and navigated the offer process with us seamlessly. We ended up getting a home that was listed for less than 12 hours in this hot market because of how quick she is to have found it and get us in! We LOVE our new home! I can't say enough about the care and attention to detail she has, she is amazing!!" ~ Samantha Wagner
