Introducing

Karen Kiely

Licensee Salesperson
Ray White Hutt City

Born in Petone and educated at St Mary's College Wellington I have a large network of contacts throughout the Lower Hutt/ Wellington Region.

Following a number of years in Australia working in the transport industry and then owning and operating a Motel in NSW, I returned to New Zealand to commence in business as a property consultant. Owning my own portfolio of investment property has given me a good insight into how the property market works, and what both the vendor and purchaser see as important throughout the Real Estate transaction.

My pledge to you as a Vendor or Purchaser is to work with you in partnership to ensure that all your Real Estate needs are met with a professional and friendly seamless service. Understanding that communication is paramount in this partnership, the promise I make is to keep you, the client, fully informed every step of the way.

We had an excellent experience selling our property with Karen even in a level 4 lockdown! Karen is friendly and welcoming, always on the ball and so helpful ensuring we knew what to expect and the next steps (we hadn’t sold before). Thank you Karen for a wonderful, stress free sale!

Karen was just fantastic in every way possible. We were selling our NZ property while residing overseas which presents a number of challenges. Karen took initiative to sort off the details out, from rubbish removal, to sorting out quotes for misc. things that needed doing, to staging the property. She made our lives so much easier.

Karen made the whole process of selling our rental property from afar so smooth and stress free. Everything was done through emails, phone calls and zoom chats making the process so easy considering we were living in Auckland and had a new baby!

Awesome to deal with, communication excellent just awsome.

Shirley

Karen kept us informed about everything that was going on with the property great communication from her. Very friendly personality

Mark

Karen Approached me after I advertised my Sons unit privately. After discussion with Karen, it was decided that the best outcome would be through her handling through exclusive listing. We have been very happy with Karens attention to detail and professional response to all situations throughout this sale and confirm that we would not have achieved the best outcome of sale (after a rather long listing) that we have done.

Raewyn

Karen has been most efficient with keeping me informed all the the way through the process.

Christopher

Friendly, helpful to a first home buyer (taking time to explain the basics), clearly explained her role working for vendor and buyer. Presented as trustworthy with our interests at heart. I have already recommended her to a friend.

She is highly professional, while very like-able, 'trust-able', friendly, accommodating and down to earth.

Hay Street

We found Karen really helpful and willing to go the extra mile to help our sales & purchase agreement get done. She made regular but not pushy phone calls to help with the process, and gave us honest and reliable information about what we were doing -- which was helpful because we were first-home buyers. Also she was kind and patient when we'd accidentally miss some detail or whatever.

Karen has been responsive at each step of the way. I also felt completely safe and secure leaving her to market my home with open homes whilst I was away. She has kept me informed, ensured I had everything I needed at the right time. I have already recommended Karen to several people and she sold my Aunt's house for me (who I am power of attorney for) as well.

Amy

Karen was genuine, warm, friendly, and worked hard to help with things like obtaining permission for my dog to live in a complex managed by a body corp. Karen proactively contacted me with suitable properties to view, and really listened to my needs rather than showing me anything and everything.

I felt Karen took care of myself and my partner as we went through the sometimes stressful process of buying our first home. She provided advice and only recommended us properties that fit not only our budget, but also our tastes. Given our inexperience, we were both a little wary of agents to begin, however Karen dispelled any fears through her warmth and honesty.

Her manner,service and attitude throughout the contract was absolutely faultless.

I talked with Karen some 6 months earlier and said actually I wanted to wait six months. Could she give me the time and call back then. I respected that she waited to call back and didn't pester me. She kept me up to date with newsletters which she said she would. When the time to selling came there were times I felt overwhelmed and anxious. She calmed me and always left me feeling better. She is honest and I felt like she was working for me and therefore gained my trust. I enjoyed her humour and the fact she was friendly and always let me know she was just a phone call away.

Michelle

Karen was extremely good to deal with - she kept me informed and for the first time in my experience, made me feel that she wasn't solely acting in the vendors interests. When she asked on their behalf if I was willing to bring the settlement date forward, she made it very clear that it was my decision and did I feel comfortable with that (this was my first house purchase and she knew I was nervous). I would recommend Karen without hesitation.

Karen listened to what we wanted; gave us excellent advice and feedback; went the 'extra mile' with organising open homes; but most importantly we were able to trust her implicitly to help us get the best price in the time frame we had.
