"TO GIVE REAL SERVICE, YOU MUST ADD SOMETHING THAT CAN'T BE BOUGHT OR MEASURED WITH MONEY, AND THAT IS SINCERITY AND INTEGRITY" Douglas Adams
Here are a few client testimonials confirming my excellent service:
Peggy and Joel Blanton (Sellers)
"We found Karen's performance to be flawless. Not understanding the housing marketplace left us a little unsure how to proceed but with Karen's knowledge of the process and marketplace each and every step went quickly and smoothly. Karen's kind personality was an extra bonus throughout the process. We are thoroughly satisfied regarding the sale of our home."
Paul and Amy Barnard (Buyers)
"We could not be happier with Karen's performance. My wife and I never imagined that we would have such a beautiful home and we would have never known about it if it wasn't for Karen. We are definitely blessed. The way the home search was progressing before we went on vacation, we did not feel that we would get a newer home because of the competitive purchasing in the area and the VA home loan. Karen definitely has my vote for best realtor in the area. Karen's personalized service as our realtor exceeded our expectations. Karen ensured we were well informed throughout the entire process as this was our first home purchase. As I am in Iraq working and my wife new to the US and unable to drive, Karen assisted my wife in looking for homes with our children by helping us with transportation. Her experience was the sole reason we were able to come out with equity on a VA home loan and we are extremely grateful. My family could not be happier and my wife and I would like to truly thank her for what she has done for us. Thank you, Karen!"
Greg and Pam Hagerman (Sellers) "We had an outstanding experience with Karen Woodworth when she listed and sold our home recently. She provided the services of a stager and professional photographer before our home went on the market. The listing that Karen put together for HAR was incredibly detailed and she enhanced the photos with very descriptive captions. Thanks to Karen's hard work, our house was sold one day after it was listed. She consistently kept us informed of everything throughout the entire process and always answered our questions promptly. I don't have the right words to describe how we feel about Karen and the great job she did for us. We would highly recommend her to anyone who may be buying or selling a home. Karen Woodworth is definitely the best of the best."
Jim and Arlene Hovendick (Buyers)
"Karen thank you so very much for your help and expertise in our progress towards moving to Cinco Ranch in Katy. We appreciate all that you have done for us. Patience is a Godly virtue that you are blessed with and we know that is not a natural trait. You have developed it so well. You made us feel special. And I believe and hope that you will make your other clients know these same feelings. May God continue to bless you in your career. And in your family endeavors. Thank you, Karen, even more than we can express."
Melissa Chapman (Buyer)
"Karen Woodworth helped me purchase my first home! She was there every step of the way and never missed a beat! As a first time home buyer, I wanted to work with someone I could trust. Karen was amazing! She explained everything to me and pointed out things I didn't even notice. She treated me like family and made me feel important. I loved working with her and I look forward to working with her again in the future!"
Levi Fisk (Seller)
"Karen Woodworth was by far the best agent we've ever worked with. Great communication and negotiation. I felt as if I was her only client. Recently sold an investment property w/ Remax, and there was a night and day difference in the service, professionalism, and the results."
Elizabeth Murphy (Buyer)
"Hardworking, Dedicated, Exceptional and Honest! I have worked with over a dozen realtors over the years. Karen Woodworth was the best! She has an excellent attention to detail, and exudes patience and kindness. She was truly a joy to work with. She loves what she does and it shows!!!"
Bea Best (Buyer)
"Karen Woodworth is an AWESOME Realtor. Karen was devoted to meeting all my needs in buying a house. She has a beautiful charming warm personality coupled with detailed knowledge of realty and the different housing areas and the persistence to make sure my needs were met. She is the first Realtor who took the time to get to know me and match me with the perfect house for me. She helped me see things I would not have necessarily noticed myself in making the final decision. I would recommend Karen to anyone looking to buy a house.”
Paul Vigil (Seller)
"Very knowledgeable on real estate market. When ever I required information for any purpose, she was available any time during the day, weekends and holidays. Very understandable to my situation and personal problem. I felt it I was a friend and not a client. Thank you Karen. If I ever want to purchase a home in the future I'll be in contact with you."
Jeffrey and Rita Garcia (Buyers) "I most appreciated Karen's knowledge of the overall process of buying and selling homes and her quick responses to my texts, emails, and phone calls. She was very attentive to our questions and concerns. This made me feel valued and a top priority. I would definitely use Karen in the future. Her calming demeanor was just what I needed at times, haha"
Jeffrey and Rita Garcia (Sellers)
"USAA identified two real estate agents for us to meet with. We only needed to meet Karen before deciding to team up with her. She is the perfect blend of professional and friendly which makes her come across as very approachable. This is important during real estate transactions which have so many moving parts. Her timely communications, reminders, and responses were very appreciated. I will use Karen in the future."
Daniel and Raissa Vega (Buyers)
"Karen Woodworth's professionalism, attention to detail, and her knowledge of the entire process was beyond approach. She was so responsive and available to us and to our questions, that it took out the guess work and worries. She was amazing. I previously had a realtor from a different company, and my family was totally unsatisfied with the service provided. We were cautious about working with another realtor, but Karen was so attentive, caring, knowledgeable, and available that it made the entire experience easy. I thank her, and thank Gary Greene in Katy for the professionalism standards they uphold in such a profession. I would definitely recommend Karen to others, and more importanly I would use her services again if I had to sell or buy another property. She made us feel that we could trust her. During the negotiation process she was very thorough when asking us what we wanted and didn't want, and actually worked hard for us. I felt we were in the loop of the entire process. In addition, she was very knowledgeable regarding Veteran Affair (VA) loans and the entire process involving the VA. This was extremely helpful to us as we reallty needed a realtor that understands the VA, its requirements, and all that goes into it. Karen Woodworth, thank you for everything!"
Jon and Kimberly Parrish (Sellers)
"Karen had an excellent understanding of the current market and what customer profile would target our home for a serious purchase. She was very responsive and always answered our questions candidly and promptly. She was very pleasant to work with. We were very fortunate to have Karen as our agent and would definitely recommend her to others."
Kim and Afif Halal (Buyers)
"It was a pleasure and a privilege for us to work with someone as dedicated and knowledgeable as Karen Woodworth. Her professionalism and attentiveness were absolutely first class. She knew exactly what we were looking for and worked diligently and restlessly to help us find our dream home. We were in a very competitive Katy market but her devotion and availability allowed us to move very quickly, which proved to be the deciding factor for getting our contract through and closing the deal. We were blessed to have Karen as our agent and friend”
James and Sheryl Privett (Sellers)
"Karen is the best! We loved her the moment we opened our door!"
Terry Barfield (Buyer)
"Karen is one of the most professional Realtors I have ever met. She is honest, forthright, and extremely knowledgeable in the field of real estate. She makes you feel like you're a part of her family and her friend. She is everything every Realtor should strive to be."
Jacob Grote (Seller)
“Karen was a consummate professional throughout the entire process of selling our house. She was always available for even the smallest question and is an excellent communicator. Karen was a go getter! The personal reasons for selling the house were less than desirable, but Karen was attentive and considerate of our needs and goals. Karen helped to systematically achieve these goals by applying her extensive knowledge and expertise in real estate, as well as by following all the data researched and provided. Karen Woodworth as the sales agent backed by the Gary Greene team is the dynamic duo and should be the clear choice to anyone looking to move in the Katy area. THANK YOU KAREN!”
Gary and Jackie Lanier (Buyers)
"If you are looking for an outstanding Real Estate agent who can help you do a lot to achieve your goals in a very short period of time, I can highly recommend Karen Woodworth. She helped us find a home with her industry expertise in the Katy area which included extensive local knowledge of Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes and Seven Meadows neighborhoods that we explored. She recognizes the importance of your decision and will do her best to help you make the right decision for your situation. Most of all, she has a pleasant and patient personality and really focuses on understanding your needs and desires. We found her advice invaluable for our search and critical to helping us close the deal for our unique circumstances."
Andy Scott (Seller)
"Best Realtor in Houston!!! Would recommend Karen to anyone."
