Kara Welliver

​★★★★★
" Kara is AMAZING! She is responsive, kind and very professional. She has excellent follow through that goes beyond normal expectations. My experience working with her during the home sale process was outstanding! My experience working with her after the sale has been just as good. A year after my wonderful experience working with her I had reached out for some documents. She responded within a few hours and got me what I needed the next day. I no longer live in the area but if you are looking for someone to sell your home or help you buy a new one, Kara is who you want. There is no better representative to have on your side!

"For us it’s more than the fear of an “annoying process” and paperwork. For most people it’s a transactional fear and stress. But for us it’s also cultural and generational. We weren’t raised or taught about the financial and real estate systems that most of our friends grew up knowing about. We fear being mislead, we fear our own ignorance, or fear losing what we’ve worked so hard to achieve in an investment this big. Buying our first property is a risk, yes, and one we’re so happy and proud to take. But we don't think we’d be as sure about it without Kara in our corner. This is the biggest investment for both of us as individuals and as a family. Kara has been such an important bridge between the owner of the property, and the lenders and us as buyers. She’s not once made us feel forgotten or given up on, even knowing what a huge challenge we had ahead of us as small business owners and buyers. She empowers us by checking in every week and really getting to know us as a business and as a family. We feel like she truly believes in our potential and for us that’s huge. I would say that because of her support and knowledge and care, we genuinely believe this is the first of many attainable real estate goals for us. She is supportive, and always makes you feel like you come first in priority as human beings, and not just clients. She’s set an insane standard. We can’t imagine working with anyone else. It’s actually fun! We check in on one another and share laughs and updates. She’s always clear and kind in her expectations and feedback from the lenders and property owners. It’s become a really great friendship and empowering partnership. We feel thankful and lucky she was put in our path." Humberto Raygoza & Vanessa Ilka

" I have collaborated with Kara on Real Estate transactions for over a decade. As a professional partner, she’s very knowledgeable and strives to be both current and relevant to her clients. She is always looking out for the best interests of others, both personally and professionally. Kara is also a wealth of resources within the scope of property ownership, taxes, trusts, and probate. Even if you’re not buying or selling currently, she can probably point you in the right direction with a professional partner to meet your needs." Christopher Scott — Old Republic Title Insurance

"Kara is AWESOME! She worked so hard on our behalf to sell our home, which was challenging as we lived in a challenging neighborhood. She gave us great advice on making our home appealing to prospective buyers and our house sold quickly. She worked tirelessly to find us a new home that fit our needs, listening to what we were looking for and what we wanted to avoid. She would often steer us away from neighborhoods that she knew, having listened to us, we would not be happy in even though we may have liked the house. She knew better. We are so glad we listened to her because we are now in a house we love and a beautiful neighborhood. I would most definitely recommend her!" Shauna Hermes & Michael Gordon — Buyers & Sellers

"Kara was amazing to work with and made the process of buying my first home seamless. She was always available to answer questions and alleviate concerns, which took away a lot of the stress of buying a home. She went out of her way to work with me and still does to this day even though escrow closed five months ago. Kara is incredibly professional, personable and knowledgeable, and I highly recommend working with her if you are looking to buy a home." Saleem Razaqui — Buyer

"Kara is absolutely exceptional. We were not from the area and Kara took the time to answer all of our questions. She was very patient even when we were not. Her honesty and professionalism was the highest of any realtor we have dealt with. When we had concerns about things we were not sure of or didn't understand, she immediately responded and talked us through everything until we were comfortable. Kara is the consummate pro at what she does and we would recommend her to everyone we know. Thanks Kara for your hard work!!!" Bill & Maria Kubitz — Buyers

"I purchased my home in Long Beach with Kara as my realtor in 2012. Recently, I relocated to New Mexico and with Kara’s expertise, I was able to sell my home in Long Beach without any complications or worries. I was extremely happy to have her represent me! Kara is the consummate professional. She is thorough, reliable, trustworthy, and extremely knowledgeable with regard to home selling and buying. Kara provides all of the necessary information to her clients and is able to make purchase and sale transactions seamlessly." Barbara Lawrence — Buyer & Seller

"I met Kara Welliver at an open house in Dana Point and was immediately drawn to her open, warm and friendly manner. She sensed my interest in the unit and I toured it several times, but it was not to be. I was disappointed but was assured that there may be a better home or apartment around the corner. After walking through quite a few properties, we did find a condo which met my expectations. She continued to toil tirelessly on my behalf, worked with the escrow company in every way to finalize the sale. Meanwhile, she kept me informed of its progress. Also happily printed numerous documents that I needed for my files. Kara is very knowledgeable on all aspects of real estate, follows through on any request or questions you may have, exudes confidence and best of all, always has a positive attitude . Not only is Kara an excellent agent, but also a great friend." Miriam Whatley — Buyer
