Client Testimonials:

"Karla was outstanding in every step of the process. We could not have been more pleased or had a better realtor!! She is definitely “top drawer”!! Karla kept us informed after every family had seen our home. Our home went on the market on a Thursday, we had showings on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday before the Open House on Sunday. Our first offer came on Thursday (the 1st day). After the Open House, Karla called with 2 more. We signed the contract Monday morning. What more could you ask of your realtor."

"Karla was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was professional and knowledgeable when it came to guiding us through the process of selling our home, and again when buying our new home! She really helped us get top dollar when selling our home, which helped us get our new dream home! I felt like I could call her anytime with questions and advice, and she was always glad to hear from me, no matter how small the question was! I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch realtor!"

"I am truly amazed at the talent, professionalism, experience, proficiency, efficiency, and knowledge of Karla in the real estate business and market. Frankly, I was skeptical at the price she recommended due to the uncertainly of the market at the progression of covid-19; everything went smoothly with her and her team from the beginning. She exudes confidence and devotion of her profession and an aptitude for market research and analysis to arrive at the optimal price. The brochure that one of her team produced was remarkable, awesome and par excellence, and attracted a significant number of visits. Having the deal closed with full price within three days was beyond my expectations and wildest imaginations. It is said that location is everything in the real estate market, but may I add that ‘agent, agent, agent’ is just as critical and important and she is highly esteemed in my humble opinion. Without any doubt, Karla is a blessing to us."

“Fabulous! Karla and her team were always responsive to the plethora of questions I asked. She offered excellent advice on how to prepare our home for selling. We did what she advised so that we were not the reason for staying on market. She and her team successfully got us a buyer quickly and navigated us through the selling process. Not only is she a delight as a human to be around, her professionalism is top notch. By far, Karla is the most recommended agent I could possibly offer for anyone.”

“Karla did an outstanding job! She helped me secure me my dream lakefront lot in Lake Linganore. This was not an easy deal as I was trying to convince the seller to sell me the lot as it had a builder tie in. I tried on my own for 6 months but the seller wouldn’t budge. Within 2 months Karla secured the deal no builder tie in. Would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”

“Karla Pinato was an absolute pleasure to work with. Every conversation we held were simply enjoyable, and left me with peace of mind as she had the best solutions for concerns and questions, big and small. She is not only a very competent realtor, but also very kind and classy, going above and beyond her call. I knew I was leaving my home in good hands when I left it with Karla. A fellow Dayton, MD resident, she took care of my home as she would her own, until the day of settlement. I would highly recommend her, especially to luxury home sellers/buyers.”

“Karla was wonderful. Even though we were slow pulling the trigger on a home, she kept us well informed with the availability of property in the region and price range to meet our needs. When it came down to writing the contact, she was very knowledgeable and helpful to us. We knew we would be in a bidding war and she gave us excellent advice on how to write the contract. We were thrilled to hear we won the first contract we wrote during this pandemic era. Thank you Karla for all your help along the way!”
