Karen Machikas

Karen was helpful, friendly and generous. Truly a pleasure to work with. We moved from another state and felt at ease with her guidance. We would not hesitate to engage her in the future if needed.

Karen is an excellent realtor and I have already recommended her 2 times to people who are considering purchasing a home. She is very personable and I will always consider her a personal friend. She is quick to respond and helped me with locating the perfect home for my family and dog. :)

Karen recently helped us with the purchase of our first home in Cary, NC. The total process was very new for us so there were many questions and some frustrating moments but Karen was always reassuring and there to answer questions whenever needed. Karen is very personable and a joy to work with. I will always appreciate her for going above and beyond for her clients!

We chose Karen after we did our homework on realtors because of her knowledge of the area, her responsiveness to our questions and concerns, and helping us not only buy a new home in Clayton, but selling our former one in Apex. She is very calm, yet knows her business, and will be there for you all the time. We could not have ask for a better person to help us. You cannot go wrong if you chose to you Karen Machikas.

We could not be more pleased with the professional service and knowledge of this agent. Karen Machikas did a masterful job of finding and securing the perfect property for our needs, and negotiated a very fair price amid numerous competitors.

Our home buying experience with Karen Machikas was so positive, we have since recommended her to several others. Karen is a personable, hands-on, motivated professional. We must have had more questions and concerns than most, but Karen had the answers or knew right where to find them. She genuinely cares. That may be the biggest difference between her and many other capable Realtors. Thankfully, Karen has a well organized team of professionals who helped us through our relocation and home buying process. We were so well attended, we could have been 1st time home buyers and would have still felt comfortable with Karen. In summary, we were not 1st timers, so we feel qualified to assess Karen as a superior asset, in our North Carolina move. Karen made so many things happen for us, that couldn't have been easy. We will always appreciate her tireless efforts, professional savvy, and her positive, bubbly personality!! If you just need an average real estate experience, Karen isn't it. She tops the list of pros for those who need the very best in the business, for the best possible results. Less

Karen immediately made me feel cared for and in good hands. She wanted to understand what motivated my move and how she could best get me where I wanted to be. Her knowledge of the market, how to negotiate and position ourselves almost felt secondary because we were so focused on getting me exactly what I wanted- which we did! HIGHLY recommend working with her!

When I met Karen the first time to discuss selling my house, I knew she really listened to what I needed and expected from her as a realtor. Karen and I were on the same page when it came to what needed to be done to get my house ready for showings. Selling a house was stressful, but Karen was with me every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend Karen to my friends and neighbors.

Karen is a rare example of the professional who not only exceeds all expectations but also CARES about her clients. She went above and beyond in: 1) learning about my family to best understand our real estate needs; 2) showing us properties that were ideal fits; and 3) taking the time to walk us through the entire process from offer to closing. I would not hesitate to recommend Karen to anyone in the market for a home or thinking about selling their existing property. She's the best!

Karen was a "Master" of the process in preparing our home for the market. She was professional in her suggestions in how to de-clutter, properly stage, and to strategically price our home to SELL. Our Goal was to sell the home without dragging out the process with multiple showings and months of uncertainty. Karen's organization and knowledge provided the leadership in meeting our goal. Her methods paid off ! Our home SOLD the very day it went on the market (MLS). We listened. We responded to suggested staging and immediately provided information she requested. We worked with our Realtor as a "Team". Together We met our Goal! A Sincere Thank You to Karen!!! - The Baines Family

I worked with Karen and her team and I have never felt so at easy about a transaction that should be stressful. Karen was very professional, knowledgeable and best of all listened to what I wanted as a client. She offered guidance when needed, but never pressured me. I felt like family and she is such a friendly and lovely lady with a calming smile and disposition. Thank you Karen for having my back and for explaining everything and making is easy to understand. I look forward to working with you again in the near future. You rock!

We had a wonderful home buying experience with Karen. It was a rather long journey and she became part a of that journey from the moment we started looking for a home. She has great knowledge, understanding and patience to work with you until you find what you are really looking for. It is not just another business transaction for her, but a personal level interaction at every stage of the process. She really listens to you and your family and stays within your comfortable price range. We are very happy and satisfied with her help and service.
