Karen Xu – Congress Springs Real Estate

We are speaking from the perspective of first time home buyers because that is what we were. On our first meeting with Karen she walked us trough every step in the buying process which was very useful, from there she took us to see multiple properties, listened to what we wanted, and we were able to narrow down our options. Once we made a decision on the house we wanted Karen helped us close the deal. We never felt pushed or pressured to buy before we were ready. She knows the market well, is knowledgable, patient, attentive and went out of her way to listen and work with us and got us into our first home. We are very happy we chose her to be our agent and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy.

Karen is the best! She helped me buy and sell my first home in San Jose. I could not have asked for a more professional and knowledgeable Realtor. She always has a «can-​do» attitude and goes above and beyond in all aspects of the transaction from making sure she is present during the appraisal down to making sure the house is staged properly when selling. I had moved out of the area, which would seem to be much more stressful when selling, but Karen was a blessing and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. I look forward to working with her in the future!

If you are looking to buy or sell your home the first thing you need to do is call Karen Xu. In fact, do it now. Karen recently helped my partner and I find and purchase a condo in San Jose’s Japantown neighborhood and if it wasn’t for Karen the purchase would have never gone through. Karen is totally focused on her clients and goes above and beyond to close a deal and most importantly save her client money.
From the initial meeting with Karen we knew she was right for us. She was very thorough in walking us through the buying process and even though we were not first time buyer it was a great ‘refresher’ course. We had never worked with a Realtor that spent this much time educating her client. Karen’s thoroughness carried through the entire buying processes. Karen listened to our needs and our desired neighborhoods and always found properties to show us that met our needs. She never wasted our time showing us properties that were too expensive, too big, too small, in neighborhoods that we were not interested in, etc.
Without going into details on the property that we purchased and the transaction, Karen’s negotiation skills ultimately saved us $ 25,000 on the final purchase price, $ 25,000 less than our initial offer price. Grant it not all circumstances are the same when buying a property however based on our experience it was obvious that Karen has the expertise to identify opportunities and work to turn those opportunities from dream to realities.
