Don S. bought a home in Columbia

WE ARE A MILITARY FAMILY, AND KAROL DID A GREAT JOB WORKING WITHIN OUR TIGHT TIME-FRAME AND CRITERIA! SHE FOUND US THE PERFECT HOUSE IN THE PERFECT LOCATION FOR THE PERFECT PRICE. SHE COULD LOOK AT A PICTURE OF A HOUSE AND DRAW THE LAYOUT, PLUS TELL ME WHO BUILT THE HOUSE AND GREAT INFORMATION ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SHE HAS INCREDIBLE KNOWLEDGE, LOADS OF PATIENCE AND SEEMS TO KNOW EVERYONE! BEST OF ALL, SHE IS PART REALTOR AND PART MARRIAGE COUNSELOR BUYING A HOUSE WAS INCREDIBLY STRESSFUL AND SHE WAS ABLE TO FIND WHAT MADE THE ENTIRE FAMILY HAPPY! WE LOVE KAROL!

"I have known Karol for almost two decades now, and she is an exceptionally qualified professional, proficient in both the buy and sell sides of her clients' transactions. If you are looking for a caring and calm Realtor, and having all of her knowledge and experience at your fingertips, look no further! I would trust Karol to take the best of care for any and all of my family members."

Jacquie S. bought a home in Randallstown

MY FIANCE AND I CAME TO Karol Hess to purchase our first home after a very negative experience . Poor communication, inaccurate information, and awful customer service are the main reasons we left our prior realtor After meeting with Karol, I knew I would be able to relax and leave my anxieties behind. Karol was very knowledgeable in real estate rules and regulations. She made sure to know us first so she could provide the best possible sales experience. Karol knows the market very well. With Karol there was never pressure to buy. We did decide to put down an offer on a single family home, Karol made sure we asked for the right price and seller assistance. Karol was present throughout the entire process. She was always willing and able to meet in person. Our closing occurred on time; there were no delays due only to the efficiency of Karol and the mortgage company. Purchasing our first home could not have gone better. My only regret is not going with Karol in the first place.

Kirsten M. sold a home in Columbia

My father passed away and my brother and I were left with the sad task to sell our fathers house. Karol quickly helped us determine what work needed to be done to sell it quickly, got the work scheduled and the work was finished on schedule. The house looked beautiful and we received three offers in 24 hours. Karol is extremely knowledgeable and walked us through the process. I highly recommend Karol shes not just our realtor, shes also become our friend!!
