Very Thorough

“The Sales Associate was very thorough. And showed me a wide range of available properties that met most of my requirements. He was very knowledgeable about the Market, individual homes, their positive attributes and shortcomings. In the end, he identified a home that had just come on the Market and advised me to look at it immediately. It was the best choice, and with his advice we prevailed over multiple offers.

I will continue to tell everyone how hard she works to find the house you desire.” ~ Darrin Danielson Rita Benson

Easy to Work With

“Tracie was extremely professional, honest, and easy to work with. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her on the sale of 2 homes and the purchase of my current home. She goes above and beyond and I couldn’t be happier. I looked into a couple of other agencies, but just didn’t feel comfortable with how they do business. Real Living agents are honest, friendly, and have integrity. Tracie was always available to answer any of my questions, no matter how trivial they may have been, quickly, and concisely. I will definitely be in touch with her if I’m ever in the market again, and have referred her many times to friends and family. Great Job, Tracie !! and thank you……” Paul Genis

She Worked Fast

Skilled Communicator

“We can’t say enough wonderful words about our experience with Karlene. She assisted with every aspect of selling our mother’s home. In addition to her skills in the real estate field, she provided useful information regarding estate sales, inspection procedures, attorney involvement, and more. She did everything she could to make this situation easy for us from a distance. She is a skilled communicator and was easily assessable, which made us feel so confident in her abilities.

Everything Went Very Smooth

“My husband and I closed on our cabin located in Tidioute, PA last week. Karlene was referred to us by our neighbor who sold his cabin a couple of years ago. We had two offers in the first week. Karlene did a fantastic job. Everything went very smooth. She is very knowledgeable about the entire process of buying and selling property. We would highly recommend her. She was always a step ahead of us which made the process go smooth and quick.” Scott & Terri Mascioli

Karlene Impressed Us

“In the beginning of our process we worked with a few different realtors. Karlene impressed us with her knowledge of each home she showed us. Whether it was her first time showing the property or not she could talk to us about issues and/or possibilities for each place. As first time home buyers we had a lot of little questions throughout the process. She was always willing to answer them for us and was very patient. One thing we really liked compared to the other realtors is that if a property came up for sale and she thought we might be interested she reached out to let us know it was now on the market. She was always very quick to get a viewing scheduled and during the viewing she was receptive to whether we truly liked the home or not. I would recommend her to anyone especially first time home buyers.” Faith

Tracie was the Right Choice

“Tracie was the right choice in our opinion. Her market comparisons were right on and we accepted an offer very close to our asking price exactly 3 weeks to the day after the sign was put up. The house was shown many times in that three-week period and the feedback was always relayed back to us. Her communication with us was great. If we did have a question for her, she responded within a very short period of time. She communicated with the buyer’s agent throughout the entire process and relayed any information back to us. Thank you Tracie!” Donald & Jonilyn Eck

She is Great at Her Job

“It was a pleasure to work with Karlene Smith. Not only is she a fun and caring person, she is great at her job. She responded to my initial email inquiry on Thanksgiving night, and we made arrangements to view the property within days. While the property that prompted our relationship wasn’t quite right, she listened to what we wanted and showed us the house we bought later that same day. It was a foreclosure, and she guided us through the process. She prepared us for the inevitable delays and hurdles, while keeping us calm when repairs were needed before closing. We ended up using every recommendation she provided, from the home inspector to insurance agent to mortgage company. She is knowledgeable, and her contacts in the Warren County are strong. Karlene helped us buy the riverfront weekend home of our dreams!” Jennifer & Michael Berry

Enthusiasm and Encouragement

“Karlene Smith made our transition from homeowner for over 47 years to an independent living setting so easy and worry free. Our home sold in a month and we were able to move to Colorado knowing she and her staff would do a good job on selling our home. Her enthusiasm and encouragement let us transition without worry. Kudos to this agency and especially Karlene.” Deb & Randall Roberts

Very Comfortable Throughout the Process

“Dear Prospective Homeowners: It is my immense pleasure to recommend Carol Peterson as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home for their unique situation. My husband and I recently had our first child and we wanted to raise her in my hometown of Warren, PA. After moving back to Warren from Pittsburgh, PA we lived with my family, which meant sharing a bedroom between the three of us. We were anxious to find a home of our own in order to raise our daughter and give her a safe space to grow and play. Carol had an initial meeting with us and took meticulous notes regarding our specific needs in a single family home as well as our budgetary limitations. She is highly talented technologically and made excellent use of the relevant search engines and real estate databases to quickly find us a variety of homes for sale in the area. She did not waste our time with homes that were out of our price range or not in line with our needs. A master with the contract negotiations, Carol came up with a deal that was good for us and made the seller happy as well. My husband and I were first time homebuyers and Carol made us feel very comfortable throughout the process. She thoroughly explained items in our contract and what to expect during the home buying process, which made us feel very prepared. We found Carol to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She is also highly personable with an engaging personality. …”We are pleased to recommend Carol Peterson to anyone looking to buy a home. She is hands down the best in the business in our opinion and if we ever need to move again she will be our first choice in real estate agents…. ” ~ Lauren Warmath
