About Karen Armstrong

I have worked as an Atlanta Realtor for 19 years and have sold over 1000 homes in the Atlanta metro area. I feel fortunate to be named the Number 1 Agent with Keller Williams Peachtree Road in 2017, I know what is needed to get homes sold quickly for the best price in the current market. I am known for giving honest straightforward advice backed by 19 years worth of real estate experience in both up and down real estate markets. Presentation and staging are two of the most important ingredients to getting a home sold and I spend extra time with my clients to make sure the house looks exceptional before hitting the market. This helps give me an impressive 98% list price to sales price ratio for my listings over the past year.

I live with my amazing husband Mark Thomas and my son Will Armstrong who is a high school sophomore.. My stepson Iain Thomas is a sophomore at Auburn and my stepson Colin Thomas is starting a Masters program at Georgia State. I enjoy watching my son play sports, reading books, and watching professional sports, especially tennis and baseball. I am actively involved with JDRF research to find a cure for type 1 diabetes.

I had the pleasure of working with Karen and I can't recommend her any more highly. From start to finish, she made the entire home selling process smooth and enjoyable. I live in Texas and she helped to connect me to excellent contractors to get the house Sales-ready, advised me on what to update and patiently waited for a few months through the reno process. With her amazing advice, we had an offer quickly after the house went on the market. We highly recommend Karen!

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 didnt seem rushed, she didnt seem desperate, and she didnt 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 aEURoeComing SoonaEUR?, when the listing would aEURoeGo LiveaEUR?, and when an aEURoeOpen HouseaEUR? would be scheduled if needed. She was specific on when the aEURoeFor SaleaEUR? sign would be placed in our yard and how aEURoeFlyersaEUR? 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 Karens knowledge and experience really came through. She explained the particulars of the buyers 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 Karens 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, thats what its 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.
