Staying at home to raise their two daughters, Karen decided there were days when she needed "her own time". So, in 1997, she decided to follow her passion and become a Real Estate Agent. After all, this would allow her to have some "adult conversations" when needed, as her husband had a very demanding job and worked long hours. Since entering the Real Estate field, Karen has been very successful in all aspects of Real Estate. Over the past 20 years, she worked for two prominent develeopers in CT and NJ managing their New Homes Subdivisions; owned her own real estate firm; and now works for the #1 company in the area, Coldwell Banker.

First we bought a house with him as our agent, then sold our house, bought a new house and rented a house in between. Each time Mark worked diligently as our agent to complete the transaction and every time it was a very smooth process thanks to Mark. Mark is EXCELLENT with COMMUNICATION; I was always able to get a hold of him quickly through e-mail, phone calls and sms text messages. Mark SOLD our house in January 2010(in a terrible market) in less than 2 weeks. He is excellent at what he does and I can''''t imagine that there is anyone out there that is better at real estate than Mark Mark continues to assist us today no matter what our needs are including finding me land surveyors as well as top notch general contractors.
