Karen Robertson was very efficient to deal with when we were buying our first property. Karen was always quick to respond to any query i had, which made me feel a lot at ease. Thanks Karen for all your help!

Buying a house is a super stressful event and we can honestly say that from the initial viewing of our new home, Karen was a beacon of good information, professionalism and humanity! She and her team just made it that bit easier. She answered all our questions and was reassuring when things seemed to not be progressing. Thank you!

Would highly recommend K Allan Properties. The sale of the property was not straight forward with the purchase depending on Scottish and English solicitors communicating effectively with the mortgage broker. The sale would have fallen through had Karen and her team not taken ownership of the process and communicating with all parties to ensure completion of the sale.

Thank you so much to Karen and her team for dealing with the sale of my late Aunts property. As we don't live locally it was great that the stress and worry was taken away from us, it made everything so much easier. I highly recommend using K Allan Properties if you have a property to sell.

Karen and her team are all super stars !!

Karen and her team, were all easy to deal with fast and efficient handling of the marketing of the flat. So fast that it sold over the phone in 11 mins. and letters exchanged within 3 hours of the property going on the market. And at a price above expectations !!

Successful sale of property

The sale of the property was not straight forward and required Scottish, English and a mortgage broker all communicating with each other. This was not happening until Karen and her team took ownership of the process and had everyone on the same page. Would highly recommend K Allan Properties

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.
