Success Stories

Testimonials

"Nothing but great things to say about my experience working with Karan! I was hesitant at first about using an agent, and was looking into carrying out the sale myself. I met Karan at an open house, and he approached me with packets to take home with valuable home buying information. What set Karan apart from other agents I had met was his preparation and determination. He also made my head spin with the wealth of knowledge he has, and made me realize there was alot I did not know. I had many discussions with Karan before signing with him, and he reassured me every step of the way. Karan is not just a glorified door opener. He has immense knowledge of the market, big ticket items to keep a look out for, and the ins and outs of real estate deals. He was keen to spot any potential deal breakers with properties, and would not hesitate to inform me if he noticed anything unsatisfactory. Karan was quick to answer to all of my questions and requests, and I was impressed by his tenacity. He made the buying process crystal clear from start to finish, and even helped with some extraordinary negotiations between offer acceptance and closing. Karan is not in it for the quick pay day. He genuinely cares for his clients, and wants them to get great deals, and will tell you if he feels the property or deal is unsatisfactory. Just an all around great dude! I could not be more pleased with Karan, and I would recommend working with him every day of the week, and twice on Sunday. Karan is a go-getter. He is passionate about his work and pays extraordinary attention to detail. I look forward to the next time I get to work with him."

"I reached out to Karan after a house in my area was listed by him and under contract in 4 days. Karan is the best! He was informative and very detail oriented. He provided data to back up his information which helped instill confidence when making decisions. We had a ton of showings and multiple over asking offers in less than 48 hours after the listing was posted. The entire process was seamless and uneventful and in large part due to Karan’s experience and demeanor. I highly recommend Karan!"

"Karan Desai is an absolutely fabulous real estate agent! He is extremely knowledgeable, detailed, respectful, and extremely amiable. He went above and beyond to help us find and purchase our new home. At the last minute on closing day, he found a problem and was able to get it fixed, so we were not left with the issue or a costly repair. I recommend him to all my friends and family, and honestly believe he is one of the best if not the best in the area. I would want to work with him again if I ever am in need of a great real estate agent!"
