Karen is as Awesome person and realtor, she goes above and beyond to help in any way she can. We have used her services a few times now and we are always happy. — As a side note my mother almost did not go with ray white as there commission is up there compared to other choices for selling your home.

We met Karen through the property my parents purchased. We were impressed with her professionalism and my elderly parents who haven't bought or sold a property for many years felt they were in safe hands and were very comfortable dealing with her.

Professional, relatable, and knows her stuff! We felt like Karen was keeping us informed along the way and negotiated a sale which brings unique challenges being a family S&P. Her follow up was good, and always gave us the opportunity to ask questions throughout the process.

It was a seamless experience with Karen. She was knowledgeable, efficient and completely onto it!

Karen, managed to secure our new home with a moving date that suited us which was under 2 weeks from opening home

Karen Gilligan is very professional with a warm engaging manner. We found her very proactive and helpful. We feel that she worked extremely well for us as our agent in gaining a successful contract. Despite the slowing market she achieved multiple offers for our property. We have no hesitation in recommending Karen.

I was very blessed to meet & work with Karen. As a person who had no idea on how to purchase a house, Karen was my guiding angel in every steps. She was very professional in all aspects and whenever I faced a problem, she was there for me with the answers ready! Very trustful in many ways and I personally guarantee 100% that Karen would exceed your expectations! Thank you for everything Karen!

This is the second time Karen has sold a house for us. She is a trusted advisor who we would and do recommend.

Karen Gilligan had previously sold another of my late daughter's homes and had developed a friendship so that is why myself, as Trustee of my daughter's Estate, had no hesitation in asking her to sell my daughter's home.

Karen was so a fantastic agent. Really enjoyed working with her.

Karen was always extremely helpful and made the process so much easier than it could have been otherwise. She was always easy to contact and quick to come back with the information we needed.

Karen has the most amazing way with her as she helps her vendors through what could be a hugely stressful time making it so easy for them. She is professional, kind, caring, and works so hard to get the most for the vendor. Karen did an outstanding job when I purchased this house that I asked her to sell it for me too.

Karen met all the requirements and more of my expectations of an agent selling my home. She was very approachable, kept me informed, pleasant to deal with and I have already referred a friend and she was equally delighted with Karen's approach and the sale of her home. Thank-you.

Karen was informative from the outset and we knew exactly where we stood and what the time frames were. We found Karen to be professional and always available!

Karen has been very supportive and considerate and dealt with my mother directly in an appropriate way that has helped her understand the process and have trust in Karen and feel listened to.

My wife and me were really happy to meet Karen. Many many thanks.

It's the second time Karen has been my agent. The first home Karen got a great price, after working on that buyer about 3 times. So Karen has worked extremely great for me both times! I would certainly recommend her to anyone.

Exceeding our expectations in personal care of our family, energy and enthusiasm.

Karen has been excellent throughout the process - very helpful, friendly and professional.

Karen was fantastic, always keeping us fully informed! Made the transaction of our purchase very smooth. Would definitely recommend Karen to others.

Karen has proven again to be an honest and reliable person in all my dealings with her.

Karen is a problem solver. She is hard working, professional yet warm and friendly. We have absolutely no complaints, and unlike previous houses we have sold, we see value for the fee we pay her.

She kept me informed all the way.

Karen was friendly, efficient and trustworthy.

Karen spent the time with my wife and I to find out what 'WE' wanted, she listened and then delivered 'OUR' requirements.

Karen listened to what we were trying to achieve and helped us to succeed.

Karen kept us well-informed throughout the process and worked tirelessly behind the scenes with insurance companies to bring our sale together. When our original offer fell through Karen worked efficiently and quickly to secure another (better) offer. She is highly professional, delightful to work with, and we would totally recommend her.

Karen was professional, always had information on hand when I requested it, was always happy to talk when I needed to, meet up with me when I needed her to. Made purchasing my new home VERY easy and stress-free.

Very approachable, great service and nothings a bother...

Karen was always willing to help out with any questions or queries that I asked and was able to do the tasks quickly. Karen made this a nice smooth easy purchase for me which was amazing since I was a first home buyer.

Karen was always friendly , prompt and professional. Her local knowledge is a real asset. Nothing was ever a bother and I always felt that she was working in my best interest. My second exemplary experience with Karen.

Karen was always available even on holiday.

Because Karen was extremely helpful and very approachable when we need help or clarification

Professionalism, knowledge, communication, patience, honesty not necessarily in that order.

Without Karen we wouldn't have been able to purchase our new home, her skill and advice helped us sell and buy 2 properties within a very short time frame.

Extremely experienced and professional

Karen was extremely professional, friendly and knowledgeable. She made buying the house a pleasurable, stress free experience.

Very professional from the outset. Had a great knowledge and feel for our area. Very experienced.

Friendly, warm and informative.

Karen was extremely engaging and went the extra mile in helping us with questions/problems throughout the process, which we would not ordinarily expect from a sales agent.

I found Karen a very thoughtful agent, she kept me informed at all stages until she found the right buyer for our unit. I'm sure you'll enjoy working with Karen to either buy your new home or sell your existing property.

Karen was always very informative about who had been through open homes and what they thought. She gave us both the good and bad feedback which was very helpful.

Karen was nothing short of professional every step of the way!! We have had an incredibly stressful time leading up to the purchase of our current home, (relocating towns, selling and purchasing businesses and trying to purchase a property here in Christchurch), and Karen made a somewhat "most stressful time of my life" into the easiest and most pain free situation. Karen was always available no matter what the questions were etc, and nothing was ever too hard, or too much of a problem. In the past 6 months of looking at over 200 properties, and continuous trips up and down to and from Oamaru, not one agent shined or went the extra mile for us like Karen did. Buying a house in Christchurch is not easy, with earthquakes etc, and all of the insurance information and EQC info I had to provide our insurance company, she totally took on board getting sorted with the Vendors. Karen is very good at her job, I love her no fuss and calming personality. If I ever sell again, Karen will be the very first one I will be calling!! Keep up the great work Karen.

Karen has sold four properties for us now. She is exceptional in every way.

Karen is a delight to deal with. She goes out of her way to help those looking to purchase a property

Very likely because Karen managed both our sell and purchase in a very professional way.

Easy to work with

A true professional.

I found Karen so efficient and nothing was a problem. All the information I requested about the property, Karen was onto it. It is my first time buying a property on my own and Karen made everything so easy for me.

Great communication and very helpful.

Helpful professional and friendly we would definitely recommend her

Karen has an extremely warm personality and is very knowledgeable about the real estate industry, inspiring confidence and trust in her ability to do a good job for you - she works tirelessly on your behalf and always makes herself accessible to you. To sum it up, Karen was absolutely brilliant and did a wonderful job of selling my house.

Karen is the most friendly passionate and dedicated professional.

Karen was really professional in our dealings with her. She was attentive to our requests, she provided answers to our questions promptly. On several occasions when we asked for access to the property for different reasons, she ensured we had quick access to it. She went extra mile by giving us more information about the neighbourhood, the other properties around and some tips on how we could make the property look nicer. Overall, she was there for us from A-Z of the purchase and was really helpful. She made our first home purchase experience smoother and less stressful than we ever imagined it would be.

Karen provided professional friendly service as she always does, pleasure doing business.

Karen's communication was excellent. She sent weekly reports on how the open homes were doing and how many private viewings she had conducted. Karen was easily contactable on mobile and was always cheerful on the other end.

Karen was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. She has a genuine desire to assist and please everyone concerned and definitely went the extra mile. Whenever we had queries she answered them immediately and out of all the Real Estate Agents I have dealt with to date she would have to be the best. I hope she is well recognised within your business as she was amazing thanks.

excellent service.

Karen was so incredibly helpful. Nothing was an issue and she always got back to us very quickly if we needed anything.

Karen was very easy to deal with and worked well for the client while also making the process simple and clear for us.

Karen provided an open and honest appraisal, clearly set out her proposal and time-line and worked in our best interest to secure a successful outcome.

Karen always made time for me and my queries and went the extra mile to discover information for me. Her calm and peaceful manner was so relaxing for my husband and I when it came to the sale of our house, we were fully confident in her proven ability and never doubted she would come through for us, which she did perfectly.

Very impressed with Karen's knowledge and helpfulness. Really got on well with her and loved her friendliness and happy nature.

She was very helpful and proffesional during the entire process

efficient, friendly and thougher

Very responsive to our needs.

Initially Karen sold our property to Simon and me – Twelve years have passed and she has remained in touch (through some form or another). Generally, after sales service has diminished with many companies, an underestimate commodity, which we fell, adds value to any service provider.

Karen acted with integrity and professionalism at all times, whilst providing a very personal service

Karen was very professional, helpful and understanding of our needs. We needed a quick sale and Karen managed that for us.

A 10 plus goes to Karen for her professional friendly service. Nothing was ever a problem for her, extremely accommodating and kept in touch frequently throughout the purchase.

Karen was very friendly and helpful as we were first home buyers

We found Karen to be amazing and kept us in the loop every step of the way, and she was really honest and straight up with us

Karen was professional, friendly and went out of her way to help us.

Karen's professionalism, friendliness and good advice helped us in the difficult decisions we had to make. Her advice and encouragement, when we first approached her about what we could do to make Mum's property more saleable, was just what we needed to hear. We would recommend her to anyone. We were impressed with her effort, the advertising, and her selling ability. To have so many offers in such a short time frame was more than we expected. Thank you Karen

Karen was most professional but very friendly. She made it easy and hassle free for us to buy. I would certainly recommend her.

Karen is very professional and knowledgeable. She is committed to her vendors and will deliver what she promises. This is our fourth property transaction with her.

I felt she was honest and forthcoming with information. She followed up but was not too pushy.

Karen obviously knows how to sell properties in the Styx Mill area, bringing clients to the Country Club to encourage buyers to consider seriously the property on sale. She was always on time with her feedbacks from prospective buyers during the open homes, and that was very helpful. To be honest, we didn't have the chance at all to view the adverts in the different media, as we put our full trust on her.

Karen was very friendly, welcoming, efficient and professional in her dealings with us.

Karen went the second mile in selling our house. As we were living out of town at the time she arranged picking up documents from me at work to get the contract signed

Karen is very easy to deal with and is always professional. She arranged viewings of the property for us and for builders report without any hassle. Karen attended the auction with us and also assisted us with the final negotiations of that auction process.

Karen is well spoken, friendly and was very competent at doing her job of representing my wife and I in the sale of our property. Her presentations were very professional, she did a wonderful job with clients at the open homes, & her after hours follow-up with interested clients was excellent. Her communications with the purchaser, myself & legal reps was excellent. Well done, Karen!!

Very nice and friendly person who worked very hard for us selling our property.

"We listed our home with Karen after an unsuccessful period on the market with another real estate agent. My husband and I were thrilled with the results. Suddenly we had good numbers of people viewing the home and it was clear that the change in marketing strategies that Karen had suggested were working well. As a result we sold our property at a great price and in good time. We totally appreciate the professionalism of Karen and her positive outlook. Her cheerfulness and helpfulness made the process much less stressful. She maintained good contact with us, passing on comments from prospective buyers and always left comment sheets after open homes. She followed up on each open home by calling back visitors and then reporting back to us."

Karen is a great listener. She took time to answer all our questions, and worked hard to produce a great result. Thanks Karen!

Karen was very encouraging and enthusiastic as was her leiutenant Julie Battersby . both women were a credit to the firm.

Karen has been sincere , honest and helpful throughout the process of selling my house in Woodend resulting in the purchaser signing up and taking possession all within the month. A good outcome

"Karen helped us find our new home, not only did she show us compassion and understanding, she went that extra mile to ensure that we were happy"

"Thanks for all you've done in helping this go smoothly. We feel fortunate that in our time of housing need you were there to help things come together for us."

Because we found the service Karen gave, and is giving us ( we have yet to settle our sale) was excellent, her professionalism and dedication to getting the best price for us, the sellers was wonderful.

Karen did everything that we hoped and expected with professionalism and with an easy going approach, and she worked very hard to ensure the Auction was successful.

Well presented information and scheduling. Adherence to plan.

The service provided was very professional.
