Highly Recommended!

I first spoke with Karen regarding a property she was advertising for sale. After a brief conversation, I realised I was speaking to a genuinely honest, extremely affable and knowledgable estate agent. The advice she gave me during that phone call was totally impartial and turned out to be entirely accurate. It made me completely rethink the timeline I had initially set for selling our own house. On a previous house sale, I'd used a local estate agent in Elgin and it had went very well. Naturally, I had planned to use the same local firm again. However, my initial experience with Karen was so positive I decided to follow my gut instinct and ask her to sell our house instead. I can say, without doubt, it was completely the right decision. Throughout the whole process Karen and her team were impeccable. The photographers she sent did a fantastic job, as did the solicitors she recommended. Karen is assuredly a people person and does everything she can to help guide potential buyers and sellers through the housing market minefield. This was very evident by the number of people viewing our property that commented on how lovely Karen had been with them and how refreshing it was. Obviously this mirrored and corroborated my own first impression of Karen. I know that she also spoke at length to the unsuccessful bidder on our house to help put them in a stronger position for the future. For me, Karens excellent interpersonal skills are what sets her apart from the other estate agents I've dealt with. These skills definitely were a major factor in making this such a successful house sale for us. There will always be inherent stress in moving home, but I can safely say that Karen made this move as stress free as possible. If I ever choose to move again, I will absolutely be giving Karen a call. I highly recommend K Allen Properties based on my own personal experience.

Enthusiastic, ambitious and professional. Recommend.

Straightforward to deal with and always easy to get in contact with, Karen is as ambitious to get the best price possible for my home as I am. Karen was thoroughly professional from photography to negotiations, and took all the pressure off me, the seller. Her service stands head and shoulders above others in terms of ease of communication with both seller and potential purchasers. Her reach is wide and she uses all media well, so I'm completely confident that no sale "got away".

Amazing

Amazing. Karen and the team were a huge source of reassurance throughout an extremely stressful process which they made much much easier. They were completely trustworthy in every respect - I wouldn't use another estate agent if you paid me.

I’ve dealt with many agents in my time and can truly say that my experience in dealing with Karen has been world class. From the first initial phone call enquiry to a FaceTime viewing to finally meeting in person, what a pleasure it’s been to work with such a professional and passionate individual. Karen understood what we where looking for from the start and managed to deliver over and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reputable agent who knows the market and understands the need of her clients. With her continued success we wish her and her team all the very best in the industry.

A truly professional experience

Fantastic! Karen has been with us for every step of the sales process. They have been true professionals, offering advice and assistance 24/7. I was working abroad during most of the sales process, Karen made sure that the house in Westray was photographed professionally in my absence, offered advice on solicitors, and guided us through the whole process, 110% recommended. Thank you to all at K Allan Properties.

Karen Allan was recommended to me by a friend. I signed up with her and never regretted it. She was true to her word and worked tirelessly to market our property. I liked the fact that she kept me up to date with progress even out with office hours and the weekend which is something not all estate agents will do. She also knows the market well. I wouldn’t recommend anyone unless I was absolutely content with their service but I have no hesitation in recommending her. She is friendly and approachable and gets the job done. It’s been a pleasure.
