Introducing

Karen Taylor

Licensee Salesperson
Ray White New Plymouth

Karen Taylor embodies the new breed of modern real estate professional who provides substantive knowledge in finance and marketing while taking time to forge solid relationships with her clients. With over a decade in banking Karen was able to safely navigate buyers through the mortgage process. This, combined with two decades of marketing and sales experience, has given Karen the skills to effectively market your valued home and ensure you receive a premium price. Karen knows this first hand “I have been actively involved in buying and selling my own homes. Friends and family were always suggesting that I should enter the industry - I finally made the decision to commence with the study and once I started the training I haven’t looked back!”. Karen’s decision to choose Ray White was an easy one “ With a background in advertising and marketing it was imperative for me to select the right agency. Ray White is a household name, a family business and is locally owned and operated which are all attributes I value. The support and technology Ray White offers is next level -  this is of great value to our clients in achieving that ‘needle in the haystack’ price for their property, whether it’s through an auction campaign or by private treaty ”. A proud local, Karen’s enthusiasm for the region is evident in her resolve that she would never consider living anywhere else. “ New Plymouth is the perfect place to live - It’s big enough to provide everything anyone could ever need, but small enough to be friendly and where no one is lost in a big pool - I love the community spirit of Taranaki ”.

Karen was exceptional in assisting us with the purchase of our new home. Nothing was ever a bother, and with my husband overseas for work during the purchase process, she was very understanding, patient and helpful in getting everything sorted. She was also a great communicator, keeping in touch every step of the way. We would definitely use Karen and Rebecca to sell our next property, based on the care and attention they gave us during our purchasing process.

Rebecca and Karen were the best agents we worked with when buying our house, so there was no one else we would have wanted to sell our home with when the time came. Through the sale process we had nothing but positive experiences and absolute confidence in them. They were highly professional while making us both as vendors and buyers feel understood. Cannot recommend them enough!

We absolutely love Karen. She is such a talented agent and a wonderful person. Every single step of our sale process was led with such care and confidence and kindness. She truly is a marvel, and endlessly talented at her job. Karen and Rebecca were everything we hoped for in a real estate agent, and more. They have the magic touch, the X factor, and as first time sellers they gave us an experience we know we wouldn’t have had anywhere else. We feel extremely privileged to have had these two amazing women as our agents. They didn’t just sell our house, they made their way into our hearts. Together they became like members of our family. They watched my son take his first steps, they played in the garden with him, they cuddled my dog, and they did it all while selling our home for an amazing price. That amazing price came from their superb strategic and well thought out marketing campaign, alongside their ability to interact with our potential buyers in a welcoming, kind and professional way. Rebecca and Karen truly revolutionised real estate for us and made selling our home such a wonderful and exciting experience (even in a global pandemic and with a tornado of a toddler) Rebecca and Karen are the dream team - talented, passionate, genuinely lovely, and extremely skilled at what they do. Every moment of working with them was an absolute pleasure. From the moment we met them we knew we were in safe and very talented hands. Nothing was ever a problem - not even the very late night advice or the million questions of first time sellers. They even helped us sort out a tree on our property that fell in the wind the morning of an open home. And they did every single thing with a smile, lightning quick communication and a reassuring confidence about the market we were operating in. We didn’t know agents could be this deeply wonderful and we are already looking forward to working with them again and again in the future.

We were first home buyers and were blown away with the care that Karen and Rebecca showed us. Their guidance gave us the confidence we needed to go through with the auction process as we were hesitant to start with. However we never felt alone as they walked with us from start to finish, even checking in to ensure we'd settled in well. Their knowledge was exceptional and their friendly character and positive attitude made the entire process a real joy for us. It's exciting to know our first home journey will be one to remember. We cannot thank them enough.
