ReviewWorking with Karen Mai to sell my condo in San Francisco proved to be a great experience. Karen exceeded all expectations, making the process smooth and successful. From the initial meeting, the in-depth knowledge of the San Francisco condo market was evident, especially the neighborhood and market trends. Communication was consistently exceptional. Karen was responsive, promptly answering all questions and keeping me informed every step of the way, even with a tight escrow deadline. This level of proactive communication and detail was invaluable. I highly recommend working with Karen Mai if you are looking to sell your home in San Francisco. Her dedication, expertise, and personalized approach made this a positive experience.

Review I cant say enough great things about Karen Mai. I chose Karen after watching a video she had done explaining key steps and things to consider when selling a house and after speaking with her via FaceTime. She was clear, straightforward and very knowledgeable. It was obvious she was honest and trustworthy (not always the case with realtors), which turned out to be exactly the case. Her advice and knowledge of the market were invaluable, and I followed her lead in terms of pricing and preparing the house for sale. As I had bought and was living in another property in another town, Karen took charge, superbly managing contractors, stagers, gardeners, etc., to get the house ready for sale. Her marketing skills really shone. Her Open Houses were well attended and there was a lot of interest in the property. Once on the market, the house was in contract within 14 days. We had multiple offers over asking at a time when there were some uncertainties in the market. It was a pleasure working with Karen, and I appreciate deeply her expertise, her ability to stay on top of things and follow through and her guidance throughout the selling process. Would I work with her again? Absolutely!

Review Karen is amazing and patient that I was able to secure my first home. I can't speak highly enough of Karen as my real estate agent, without her advice and guidance I would be lost! Her professional expertise helped me in preparing for my documents. I contacted Karen after I discovered her on realtor.com and read about her experience of 20+ years in the industry. Thank you again Karen!

Review My only agent that I trust the most, she got all the skills and knowledges about realty. You can count on her if you want to buy or sell your houses. I bought a house at Daly City with Karen Super Help back in 2012. Closing date offer is set for Saturday, Karen called me on Thursday to see if I have any house that I am interesting in. Not much time left, with in 48 hours; Karen Use Super Help to send in a offer for me. Finally, my offer had been pick, without Karen Pro Realty Agent I will not able to own this family dreams house. Also I just sold my other house by Karen. Sold over $140K asking price, we are so happy. #1 Realty Agent that I recommend for everyone.

Review I met Karen three years ago @ a open house, kept her card & when it was time to sell a rental property got in contact. She is a fantastic real estate agent, knows the business, the current market & takes care of everything. She gave me good advise, and got five offers over asking price for my rental. One of the offers was 60K over asking! I highly recommend her & would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Karen!

Review I'd highly recommend Karen Mai to be your real estate agent for buying home. In a sellers market with less inventory, it is too difficult for a buyer to get the right home at right price. Plus, if you are a first time buyer, you wouldn't be aware of the market, real estate process etc. I have heard that few agents pressurize clients to buy home even thought it might not be in the best interest for client. Working with Karen Mai helped us get the "right home at the right price". She knows about real estate really well. She knows what to look for in a house. She took care of the entire process - finding right home, getting the right inspectors, getting the repair done in house after inspection, helping me understand about the real estate process, and doing whatever is needed. She responds very quickly and is very reliable. You don't need to think twice if Karen is your agent. She is friendly, calm, and understand the needs of the client really well. With Karen, I never felt any kind of pressure to buy home. Even after we got the keys, Karen has been in touch and assured for help for any guidance or information. I'd work with her for any future real estate needs.

Review Karen has an outstanding knowledge of Serramonte area where we lived. She is exceptionally knowledgeable of the Sales process in all facets of Real Estate sales and buying of properties. Our house was put in the market middle of June, 2014. Two weekends of open house and we had 3 offers right away. We just closed escrow 6-26-14 because of the diligence, expertise, patience and hard work of Karen. She gave us suggestions how to sell fast with the selling price we wanted. She sold it more than the listing price. We are very happy and satisfied with Karen's services. She is always available anytime and responded to our questions right away. I highly recommend Karen to anyone who are looking for or selling their house.Rene

Review I was looking for a property to buy between 2011-2012. With so many rules, laws, mortgage paper works, real estate paper works, etc. It was just all over whelming for a first time buyer. I was fortunate to have Karen as my agent. With her knowledge and expertise she would guide me through it all. Thank you Karen for being patient with me as we went through property to property viewing so many houses. If you are a first time buyer like me, get to know Karen. She is someone you can trust.

Review Karen was professional, friendly, low tone, and efficient the whole time we knew her as our agent in selling our house. She had an open house on the 8th and 9th of the month, and we had an offer by the 13th of the same week, and the offer was way beyond the asking price. She always kept in contact with us for any updates or for any information we needed to know. Escrow was closed exactly one month to the date of the offer. She was not clingy. She distanced her professional self from her personal one. She was available about 18 hours a day even on weekends. If she's not available, her partner is, too, always available. The most I admire about her, is her excellent work of ethics. She goes by the book. I wish her all the best in the real estate world.

Review Karen is amazing! I have worked with many agents in the past, none of them work harder than Karen. As an investor myself, I would like to take this opportunity to thank and recommend Karen to all the prospective Home buyers and sellers in bay area. I was planning to sell one of my house in the bay area and I contacted Karen as I knew him through my friends who had already sold and brought houses in bay area with Karen's help. Karen was very active and set up a meeting with buyer to see my house the same week. Karen have developed very good rapport with buyers and listing agents to make everything very easy for me. Within weeks my house sold! Karen is the agent I can count on! If you want a agent who willing to work for you, Karen is the ONE I recommended for all. Thanks again, Karen!!

Review My home buying process during 2011-2012 was a made so much easier with the help from Karen. Her knowledge of Real Estate is A+. She was very helpful in answering my questions and concerns. Any property that I was interested, I emailed or called Karen and she was able to get me the disclosure papers and even went a bit further to research about it. Karen made herself available to work with me with my work schedule in showing homes to me. I really appreciated the time she spent with me property after property. With all the help and assistance she gave me I am a happy owner of a property in San Francisco for almost 2 years now. Anyone else looking for an Agent to help them buy a property/home, look no further. Karen is professional and knowledgeable. To me she is one of the best.Thank You,Jeff

Review TIP - TOP from the Beginning to the End, That's all we can say about Karen Mai and Joseph Chav which we choose to sell our house. As we have never sold a house before we knew we needed an experienced Sales Team to guide us through all the formalities which were involved in the sale and Karen and Joseph were able to answer all the questions we had in a plain language we could understand. So we signed the sales contract and we were not let down in respect to what we should do - or not do in bringing our house into a saleable condition in order to receive a fair price for our property. Needless to say that the advertising in the Internet and the Media was done to our satisfaction and the Open House sessions we had were properly conducted. After the sale Karen and Joseph assisted us in finding another place to live and everything worked out very well. Just like I said in the beginning of my letter: TIP - TOP from the beginning to the END!

Review Karen assisted me to purchase my first home for a great price. It was a short sale property, so it took about six months from start to finish in completing the transaction. We initially put in a bid of $136,000, but the seller's lender wanted a higher price of $155,000. However, Karen negotiated price back to the original bid price of $136,000. Karen explained the short sale process in great details and was very patience in guiding me through the entire process. Thank you again!

Review I was glad to have Karen as my Real Estate Agent. Karen helped me purchase my house 3 years ago. I have a high of demands such as location and price. Karen was able to balance that by listening and providing me the right set of houses to review. Karen walked me through the whole process from bidding to purchase. Karen also provide post purchase support and follow up. I've enjoyed working with Karen even beyond my house purchase since I would definitely recommend my friends to her.
