Karen McLaughlin has helped me buy two homes and sell one home in Lake Oswego. She's also our Old Town neighborhood website sponsor.
She says about herself, "I began my career as a Realtor in Lake Oswego in 2007, I feel passionate about living in Portland, and I love sharing information about all the fun activities to enjoy in this beautiful place. I work diligently to guide clients smoothly through the process of buying and selling their homes, primarily in SW Portland. I enjoy working with first-time home buyers, investors, and luxury clients.
I know and love the lake and enjoy sharing expert knowledge of the unique locations and home values on the lake, as well as, the joys and benefits of lake living. I believe in the power of giving back to your community and that it's part of loving where you live. Feel welcome to access the most current real estate data and search for homes directly from my site. When the time is right, feel free to contact me so that I can learn about your dreams, take them to heart, and put the power of Windermere to work to help you make your dreams a reality."
What I say about her: she has high integrity; she's thorough and does what she says she will (and then usually more); she has incredible connections with people who can/will help you when you are selling or buying a home; she's incredibly calm and easy to work with; she knows Lake Oswego real estate well and all the "micro communities"; she's an excellent and fair negotiator; she is an exceptional project/process manager and a lot of being successful in real estate is doing that really well. I both like and respect her.
My favorite stories about Karen when she was my realtor:
I'm an optimist so I would ask her after every home I looked at, "what's wrong with it?" and she would tell me.
"Onward!" - how she ended most texts to me
She was at every showing on my home on the Lake and had a lot of funny stories for me about the questions people asked her like, "Why is this lake green? In California..." She answered, "Everything in Oregon is green."
She orchestrated a bidding war with three offers on my lake house
She is excellent at communicating with you throughout the process
She negotiated the deal on the house we live in now (and love) in Old Town
I'm grateful to know her and that can personally highly recommend her if you're looking for a realtor to help you find a home in LO or sell a home in LO. She knows our Old Town neighborhood well.
