As a licensed REALTOR ® since 1980, I’ve watched Austin expand in all directions and into many new industries. During that time, I’ve helped welcome many of the new families that have made Austin the eclectic, warm community it is today. My career has given me a thorough knowledge of Austin and considerable experience with the details of real estate transactions. Whether you are relocating to the city or moving across town, let me put this knowledge and experience to work for you.

In real estate there is no substitute for experience, area knowledge, and attention to detail. Over the many years of my career, I have served clients through work in residential and commercial sales as well as representing several custom home builders. I am currently a proud member of many professional association including National Association of REALTORS ®, Texas Association of REALTORS ®, Austin Board of REALTORS ®, and many others.

I am committed to developing a partnership with my clients that will help me understand their needs and guide them through the maze of neighborhoods, builders, contracts, and financing that they will encounter. Clients seek me out for my talent for locating excellent values and negotiating contracts skillfully. I use the latest technology as one of many tools to enhance my services to my clients, but focus on personal relationships as the real essence of the business. Caring for clients and understanding the lifestyle that they seek is at the core of my approach. I am committed to providing my clients with highly personalized service, availability and 100% effort.

Additional comments ... We have used Karen as our buyer's rep twice in the Austin area. She knows the market well, and her insight was very valuable in choosing the right home.

Additional comments ... Karen McCarty is WONDERFUL. I always recommend her to individuals looking for a home in the Austin area. My personal story about Karen is as follows: Four years ago, I discovered that I had to move to Austin for work. I only had one weekend to find a place to live. My budget was limited, but I wanted to buy a condo rather than rent. Karen devoted her ENTIRE weekend to me. Karen's demeanor was professional, caring, and friendly. She was intuitive about my interests, but never forced her opinions upon me. She was also very knowledgeable about the housing market and the Austin area. Because of Karen's diligence, preparation, and hard work, I was able to find a townhouse to buy in only two days. Wow!

A funny sidenote: I renovated my kitchen shortly after I moved into the townhouse. For some reason, I asked Karen to keep a key for me during the renovation. Things were great until two years later when I accidentally locked myself out. As a shot in the dark, I called Karen hoping to locate a spare key. Unbelieveably, she still had it! Now that's an organized realtor!

Additional comments ... Listened carefully to what we said we wanted, watched carefully how we reacted to homes, and quickly found us what we needed. Karen knows the various builders well and steered us clear of those who went under.

Additional comments ... We worked with Karen on relocating to Austin from Houston over a period of several months. Karen showed us various areas and various different types of homes. She communicated with us regularly and when our priorities shifted she made the shift as well. When we found the perfect home, she was with us every step of the way and negotiated problems on our behalf as if she were family. In addition, her contacts with local businesses helped us get settled into our new home seamlessly. From Karen's expertise, we benefited by getting a great deal and with her on side we have never felt alone. I highly recommend Karen for her knowledge of the industry and Austin area, professionalism, and ethical character. From a customer service perspective, Karen McCarty sets the bar.
