    About Karyl Allen

    I am a native of the Prince William County area and was born and raised in Manassas, Virginia. My family is four generations deep in the Manassas area so I've seen tremendous growth, both good and bad. After getting married in 1995, my husband and I moved to Gainesville. We raised our two daughters here and they began and completed their education in the Prince William County Schools system. Our oldest daughter graduated from college and moved back to the area to teach first grade. Our youngest is a college student studying to be a dental hygienist and working in a dental office in Centreville. I love that both of our kids have chosen professions that allow them to serve people. I also see my career in real estate as a service business, not a sales business. I began my real estate career in 2005 and have served over 500 families in that time. I have worked with first-time homebuyers and seasoned buyers. I have served people who are newlyweds and new parents. I have helped people combining households to care for their parents. I have helped people sell the estate of their parents after they passed away. I have helped people move up to accommodate their growing families and I've helped people downsize their homes after they've raised their children. I participate in the most important parts of people's lives. And I love it! I will be your trusted advisor, combining my vast experience with my hometown expertise. I pride myself on the excellent service I provide. My clients often become lifelong friends. It is an honor to serve you and I will always make time for you and your referrals. When not selling real estate, I am a volunteer in the local schools and there isn't much I won't do to support local sports leagues. The high school & all-star cheerleading programs have a huge place in my heart. I also take great enjoyment in promoting local businesses and often promote and feature them on social media.

    Karyl is an exceptional realtor. She expertly guided us through the process of preparing, listing and selling our home. She partners with photographers and stagers to ensure the house is beautiful and captured beautifully for the online shoppers. Karyl also navigated the tedious aspects of selling in an HOA community and ensured we had information up front so we were able to complete tasks before they could delay the sale of the home. She was with us every step of the way, and as stressful as selling a home can be, I felt like I had a true partnership that alleviated much of that stress. With her expert knowledge and guidance, we were able to go under contract within 3 days of listing and received above asking price. Karyl is my top pick for realty in Northern VA!

    Karyl was FANTASTIC with the sale of our home, though she was not our agent she might as well have been!!! She answered so many questions for us and directed us when we had issues with the HOA. If it wasnt for Karyl, the sale of our home would not have gone smoothly. Thanks to her expertise we were able to complete everything and our settlement went on without a hitch! I have bought and sold a few homes but I have never worked with such a diligent agent before, if you need to buy or sell, I highly recommend Karyl to be your agent!!!!

    Karyl was very professional and cordial. She was always on time to show us houses and discuss our concerns. Karyl also showed flexibility on meeting Sunday if Saturday did not work for her or us. She took the time even after hours to address questions and concerns. She is also very helpful with information regarding the area as we are new to the area. I recommend Karyl !

    I cannot say enough good things about my realtor, Karyl Allen! She worked with me as a buyers agent to purchase a condo in Manassas Park. From start to finish, she looked out for my best interests, and it was obvious she wasnt just looking to make the sale. She was also very responsive to my questions and concerns. I did a couple of real estate transactions five years ago and did not realize how inadequate my previous realtor was until I learned what a fantastic realtor can do because of Karyl. If you are buying or selling a Manassas home (or anywhere else, for that matter) I HIGHLY recommend Karyl and her group!
