Tell Us Your Story

This is the second time we have used Karen Binnar as our realtor.

This second time she coordinated a fairly complicated contingency sale and represented us as both seller and buyer. I cannot say enough good things. She is so good. She is on top of everything, acknowledges every text, advises, comforts, negotiates in the sticky spots, always had our backs. Thank you Karen!

She was so professional and friendly!

Very knowledgeable in what to expect, great follow up. Very supportive and has a great team to get all the things done. My condo was on the market for less than 2 days. She did brochures, pictures, drone video, mls, and so much more to market my home! So thankful she was my realtor!!

Karen was an excellent agent to work with as we started the journey of buying our first home.

We were excited, but really had limited knowledge on the whole home buying process and the market. She guided us through each step, made sure we competed all necessary tasks, inspections, and paper work. She answered all of our questions and helped ease our worries. We would not have been able to do this without her. I highly recommend her for all of your home buying needs. You won’t be disappointed!

Karen kept us totally on track in the entire home closing process.

We had a new construction deal and were behind in it for closing. Karen stepped in and worked with both our builder rep and the sellers rep to complete our home and close it two weeks prior to when the builder promised! And then…. We were out of state buyers so Karen agreed to do our inspection walk thru for us. It worked out great because Karen takes copious notes!, which we used when we got to town and did our final inspection. Karen Binnar is a professional realtor. Period. And not to our surprise, Karen turned out to be a fabulous person and friend. 🤗 IF you can retain her services, you better do it! She’s the best in her business and other agents far and wide will tell you the same. We love Karen.

I would definitely suggest this agent to anyone who is looking for top tier certified and vetted professional.

James Thompson

Working with Karen has been amazing.

She got us into our townhome that sits in a very competitive price point in this market. She is incredibly knowledgeable about upstate SC real estate as she grew up there. She is very responsive, honest and we feel like she truly cares about her clients. We will continue to work with her with all our future residential real estate needs.

Andrea Whitford

I feel like we hit the lottery when we found Karen to help us with our search for a new home.

She was patient and helped direct us in our path with professionalism and knowledge of the areas, and knowledge of the properties that was beyond belief. She pointed out details both good and bad to help us to make a good decision for ourselves. Once we found a property, she stayed in top of every detail with all parties to make sure the timeliness were met. Her arsenal of knowledge, her patience, and her determination to help her customers find a new home is clearly a passion to Karen. If I could find her 100 stars I would! She's the best!

I am very satisfied with Renee's responsiveness and her network of professionals (which she has thoughtfully cultivated) that helped me find solutions.

I was buying a house while not being able to be in town, and Renee went, with very short notice, and took videos of it for me to see it. Her experience showed when looking at little but important details that I would have missed. Every time that I had a question, she was very prompt in answering it through text, and very diligently executed when things needed to be done. I am very satisfied with my buy and with how the process eloped. I recommend Renee.

richard vtec

As a first time buyer, I had no idea what to expect when starting the process for buying a home.

Choosing Karen was a no brainer after many recommendations and past experiences I’ve heard of. She was so helpful, thoughtful, and truly made this process a dream. Buying a house is very stressful - especially making sure we were getting everything we needed. She exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond from our first phone call to the closing table! We are so grateful for this experience as first time home buyers. Just know, without a doubt, your experience with Karen will be nothing but the best!

Bella Norton

Karen is fabulous and tireless!

We have worked with Karen for 5 years now, have made 4 purchases, and have visited countless properties with her. She always makes herself available and shows up with a smile on her face. Karen is proactive in helping to find properties and during the contract period, aiding in a smooth and on-time closing.

Regina Johnson

Hands down the most helpful realtor in the upstate!

Karen found our dream home and we couldn't be happier! Her drive set her apart from all others.

We will never use another realtor in this area other than Karen and her team.

She was prompt, proactive, and 100% reliable, and made a stressful transition as smooth as it could be.

Morgan Alfieri

My husband and I were first-time homebuyers.

Karen was an amazing resource. She helped us find the perfect home in our price point. She made some fantastic recommendations that we never would have thought of as first time home buyers, and the written guide she gives out is super helpful. She is a great communicator, transparent about the process, and makes the process as simple as it possibly can be. I would highly recommend her for any of your Real Estate needs!

If you are selling in Anderson, give Karen a call!

She has the experience and knowledge you want in a realtor. She sold my home in 2 days!! I can’t say enough about how great she was to work with!!

Cindy Pressley Gowan

We have bought and sold +10 homes in past 40 years, and no realtor has been so informative, supportive, professional and has demonstrated the highest levels of integrity, as Karen.

Being 4 hours away during this buying process, Karen went well beyond in helping us identify the right home, right area and secure the fair purchase. HIGHLY recommend Karen as your relator during your next search, as we have done in recent weeks to other interested parties buying in the Lake Hartwell area. Thank you Karen !!!

DAVE KOSTKA

Karen did an outstanding job assisting and protectecting us with the purchase of our home.

Gary G.

I cannot say enough good things about Karen and the experience of selling our home.

She did an exceptional job. She followed through on everything and was very communicative. She was prompt, professional, and made an otherwise stressful time much easier. I would recommend her to anyone . Her professionalism and knowledge, especially of the market and how to navigate it well were truly outstanding.

Sheri

This is our first home and I'm so thankful to have Karen working with us.

Karen is very knowledgeable and has been able to help us navigate all the complexities of the process. She has been very responsive in calling and texting. If I leave a message or text, I usually get a call within an hour and every time on the same day. She has been in touch with all parties involved and makes sure everyone has what they need to keep the process moving. We are buying new construction and Karen has been going every two weeks and sending us video updates since we live a couple of hours away. If you're using VA, Karen knows how to navigate that process. We are very happy to have Karen as our realtor and highly recommend her.

Steve

Karen was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable.

She gives updates throughout the home buying process and is on top of items to be completed. She is very kind and I'd work with her again and refer her to friends and family.

KadeNelson0

This is actually the second time that Karen has helped us find a home.

She is always very responsive and ready to show any homes you want to see. Her negotiating skills are spot on! This time she also helped us sell our home. We put our house on the market during the winter which is usually slower however, due to her marketing strategies our home sold in one day! I am sure that if she is still willing to help us we will use her services again!

Karen is incredible!

She has all the knowledge you need for an easy real estate journey. We had a hiccup come up that we caused, not Karen. She handled it will grace and class. That alone is impressive in this day and time. I will absolutely use Karen's services next time we buy or sell a property.

My house was built in 1960 and in need of repair.

I thought it was going to be a tough sell. Karen handled every challenge and aspect of the selling process with utmost professionalism. We got $10,000 over asking price. I highly recommend her.

cdmowry

Karen Binnarr is the ultimate professional.

Her appraisal was exactly what my home sold for.She was in constant contact, and her advice was always correct.My home sold in a just a few weeks. Because Karen requires that prospective buyers be financially pre-qualified, there were no issues with the sale.Karen's service was so personal that I felt I was her only client and, that I had made a friend. I cannot overstate how highly I recommend her.

et me first start off by saying you need to work with Karen if you are buying/selling a home!

She is absolutely AMAZING!! Coming from a first time home buyer, yes we were excited, but really had limited knowledge on the whole home buying process and the current market situation. But Karen stepped in and helped my fiancé and I through the entire process step by step. She is VERY educated and makes sure you are as well about the whole home buying process and breaks the real estate terms down to something you understand.. We told her what we was looking for, and she went over and beyond to found us our dream home in this very competitive market with have right now... She has wonderful communication, personality, and overall is great to work with! Would highly recommend. And when we go to resell and purchase again we will be working with her!

adamdurham1981

I can not recommend Karen enough.

She has an unmatched knowledge of the market and the ins and outs of helping clients buy and sell a home. There were numerous times throughout the process where because of Karen's wisdom, we were able to avoid big road blocks in the selling of our old home. She was both off the charts professional but also personal and relatable. You don't need to look any further than Karen!

She is professional, very knowledgeable about market trends, available to answer any question, and takes care of any issues. If you need a realtor, I highly recommend Karen Binnarr.

Would highly recommend.

We recently sold our home with Karen and could not be happier with the process.

She put together a detailed market analysis for selling in the winter so that we could set ourselves up for success. She was able to get the house under contract in less than two weeks and she kept all aspects of the process moving along smoothly. She even helped put out a small fire right near the end! She is so professional, knowledgeable and easy to work with. Thank you Karen!
