Karen's Background
I was born in Taisan, China and emigrated to the United States when I was ten years old. I have been living in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1984 and working in the real estate industry since 2002. Prior to Coldwell Banker Realty, I was a Marketing Specialist in assisting Top Producers to market commercial real estate. In 2008, I obtained my license and expanded my business to sell residential real estate as well.
As a Real Estate Expert, my #1 goal is to help my clients to build wealth through real estate by either selling their properties for the highest price possible, buying their dream homes for the lowest price, or investing in income property for positive cash flow.
I’m an innovative online marketer who can tailor a strategic marketing plan to attract the right buyer for the properties that I sell. I’m super tech-savvy who utilizes smart technology to bring my clients the newest listings to purchase and bring potential buyers all over the world to see your property. My skills in consulting, marketing, negotiating, staging, designing, remodeling, and managing would give your property a competitive edge. My clients feel very comfortable to let me handle their transactions from start to finish.
I’m committed to setting the highest standards of professionalism and take pride in my dedication and hard work. I have been an active real estate investor myself since 2004. In my spare time, I enjoy biking, running, traveling and spending quality time with my family.
Who you work with matters. Your goals are my priorities. Whether you are selling or buying a property, I can help you with your biggest and most expensive investment in life. Call me today at (415) 602-5288 and I will put my knowledge, experience, and dedication to work for you immediately.
