With a background in business and sales, a passion for people and interior design, I am thrilled to have made my career in real estate.
As a longtime Massachusetts resident, I am fortunate to be familiar with a number of towns throughout the Commonwealth, providing me with insight into what makes each unique. I pride myself on my ability to communicate, listen, and SIMPLIFY a seemingly overwhelming process.
My road to real estate has been circuitous. I received my degree from UMass Amherst in business with a concentration in marketing. Upon graduation, I began my career as a food broker stocking grocery shelves, analyzing purchasing patterns and negotiating slotting fees.
I would later dip my toe into real estate working at boutique firm in Boston assisting working professionals find their homes while navigating its notorious crazy roads and avoiding parking tickets.
When an opportunity arose, I ventured into the corporate world where I created and sold corporate teambuilding programs for small non-profits to Fortune 500 clients. While I honed my sales skills and found the work rewarding, I always knew I was destined for something more and was committed to finding out what that was.
It wasn’t until I put my own home on the market that my passion for real estate was reignited. I was consumed and excited by each step of the process from pricing to staging and marketing. I love the dynamic nature of real estate, the ability to help and work with a wide variety of people and creating “teachable moments”.
When I am not busy finding your dream home, you can find me spending time with my husband and little ones and enjoying a glass of wine.
If you have never purchased or sold a home before, the process can feel overwhelming and most certainly stressful. Even if you have purchased a home, the process can still be overwhelming! I am here to simplify this process so that you can have more time and focus on the fun parts of purchasing or selling your home.
Throughout your journey, I will provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to feel confident in your decisions. I am committed to working at your pace and making sure no details are overlooked during the transaction. My expert negotiation skills will allow me to work on your behalf securing you the home you love or securing you top dollar for the home you have made your memories in. Whether you are looking to take advantage of first-time home buyer programs or you are a move-up buyer that wants strategies to buying and selling simultaneously or moving with children, I will arm you with information. Additional services include access to off market listings, free staging, weekly communications and access to my network of top notch vendors.

”Working with her was not just painless, but also enjoyable. I've lived in many different parts of Boston on and off over the past eight years and worked with several different agents, but I have never worked with anyone as helpful as Kara."

She responded immediately to my inquiries and took initiative to ensure the process went as smoothly as possible. I recommend Kara as an agent without reservation.
