Karen's Reviews
6/20/16Karen Maxner
Karen managed two quite challenging rental properties for us, one in Ridgway and one in Montrose, CO, for several years. Her management and negotiation skills are outstanding. She always quickly found us the right tenants and handled every property issue immediately. Her business judgment and communications practices are excellent. She took great care to act in our best interests at all times. When it came time for us to exit, she listed and sold both homes for us, achieving sales prices and timeframes that far exceeded our expectations. - mjmoran52, via Zillow.com

We first connected with Karen to manage a rental property we owned. Did that for four years, then decided to sell the property. We live 1,300 miles away, so had to rely on her more heavily than you normally would. She did an excellent job on all counts. Helpful, insightful, good follow-through, and realistic about pricing (neither high nor low). We'd use her services again without hesitation. - Greg Brooks, via Zillow.com
