    In a competitive market, Rosa made the impossible feel possible, securing us a beautifully priced townhome with instant equity, $21K+ in seller credits, and mortgage payments we never thought we'd find. Rosa wasnt just our realtoraEUR"she was our constant motivator, our advocate, and our biggest cheerleader. Her energy, faith, and heart kept us moving when hope wore thin. Because of her and her amazing team, we now live in a peaceful neighborhood we loveaEUR"and finally, a place we can truly call home. After decades of dreaming and a journey that began in 1999, were finally holding the keys to our new homeaEUR"one we once thought was out of reach. Now we get to enjoy a 4th bedroom, which I can now use as my home office, a private yard perfect for hosting and a peaceful suburban neighborhood. Here's to new memories. This is only the beginning!

    I had a fantastic experience working with Ms. Mariah Valdovinos during my home search. From the very beginning, they were incredibly informative, taking the time to explain every step of the process and answering all my questions with clarity and patience. What stood out most was their ability to offer a wide range of options that matched my preferences and budget. They listened carefully to my needs and consistently presented thoughtful, well-researched listings that gave me a broader perspective on the market. Their research skills were top-notch. Whether it was neighborhood details, property histories, or market trends, they always came prepared with the facts, which helped me make confident and informed decisions. Above all, Ms. Mariah Valdovinos was polite, respectful, and professional in every interaction. They were never pushy and truly made me feel like a valued client throughout the journey. I highly recommend Ms. Mariah Valdovinos to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and respectful home search agent who genuinely has your best interests at heart.

    We absolutely loved our cozy condo, which was perfect for just the two of us. However, with the arrival of our first daughter and plans for more kids, plus Carlos needing a home office, we knew it was time for a bigger space. We immediately thought of the Karp Team, who had helped us make our biggest investment when buying our condo a few years ago. Our trust most definitely paid off! Rosa was exceptionalaEUR"flexible, proactive, and always in touch, (even available in the late evenings), understanding our busy work schedules. She helped us find our dream home in just a few weeks, beating multiple offers in a very competitive sellers market and closing escrow in less than three weeks! We are incredibly grateful for Rosa and the Karp Team for their outstanding continued support with our real estate needs!

    Buying a home is a huge decision, but Rosa and her team made it a worthwhile experience! From the very beginning, they were exceptional at listening to my needs and providing all the relevant information, helping me understand the pros and cons of each property with stats and relevant factors. Rosas understanding of my needs, her in-depth market knowledge, and expertise in building and rentals allowed her to present me with everything I needed to make an informed decision. This clarity led me to the perfect property. Rosa not only secured this incredible investment property against 12 competing offers, but her local market insight also meant I walked into $60k worth of equity! And if that wasnt enough, she negotiated $18k worth of credits! All within a week after beginning my search. How she made all this possible is beyond me, but thats why I tell everyone: Call Rosa and trust her sound advice!

    I knew it was time to invest into my own future by acquiring my own home, but stepping into such a big transition was not short of being a nerve racking experience. In talking to some friends about my experience with another Realtor, I heard great comments about Rosa Karp & her team. After going through a quick first time buyer orientation from the comfort of my home, I knew I would have the proper guidance I was looking for, only two weeks after I had my offer accepted! At that time, inventory was limited and all the homes I would see ended up going for thousands ($15-40k more) than the price I had seen them for. So when Rosa got done with negotiations, I went with the best option she made available to me, a home in Chula Vista (hot area), purchased for $25-30k less than other like homes in the area and yet she got me over $20k in credits from the sellers. My advice to someone looking to get the right answers and find the right agent is: Give Rosa & her team a try, you will not regret it!
