Reviews on Zillow

We chose to have Karen Goddard, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Troth Realtors, represent us as we sold our home in the Antelope Valley. It really was an easy decision after talking with her given her tenure of working and living in the Valley for 30 years and her subsequent success. When we hired Karen to sell our home we didn’t just get Karen, but a really terrific team she assembled who are not only professionals in all the ways you’d hope: respectful, prompt, reliable; but also simply kind, a trait in short supply these days. While there are many homes in the urban AV, our home was a unique rural property with acreage in Leona Valley. Karen used both her local knowledge of the market to price our home as well as worked with a third party appraiser to support it and we sold our home within $5000 of asking price. Very impressive especially given interest rates were higher than they had been over 20 years! The photos and videos taken of our home made us question why we were moving at all (job relocation)! They did a spectacular job highlighting each aspect inside and out that made us swell with pride at what we had created. This attracted MANY hits on real estate sites and social media. Those, coupled with the work ethic and follow up of Karen and her business partner Cameo Bruckner, turned into actual showings. And even more, those who visited thought it was just as beautiful in person as the pictures shown - a testament to the skill of the photographer and videographer.Throughout the process, Karen and her team were there to answer our many questions and those of the potential buyers, be it suggestions of lenders and lending programs to homeowners insurance quotes in this dynamic market. Nothing can beat experience and knowledge and Karen has both in spades. We only wish she and Cameo lived closer now that we have sold and moved!

I connected with Karen and her team through my company's relocation program and I wouldn't work with anyone but her. At the time to buy your home, which is the most important purchase of your life, you need someone that takes the time to listen to your needs, and takes your cares away; that is simply Karen. If I could I would give her a galaxy of starts for review. She deserves them! She is the best! Karen and Cameo will search for the perfect home. While Karen will pulse the market to make the best offer or propose the best marketing strategy for you. I was out of state when I started my house hunting and Cameo did virtual tours for me and gauge my personal needs and taste. When I arrived I went directly to the home I thought was for me, and I didn’t really liked it and I got frustrated due to timing and market constrains. It was then when Karen simply looked at me and said, "I think I have one home that is what you are looking for.." I simply entered to that other home and was IT. Was perfect home, and it was simply me. That was MY home. Karen made it happen. It was not a simple buy and there were some issues, but Karen made the entire process simple for me to navigate. She simply resolved any issue that rose very professionally and caring for me. I finally got my dream home and it was a wonderful home.. I worked with Karen again for the sale of this dream home (had to move due to work); she was the only person I trust and she simply did it again. I was happy with the sell, the buyers were also happy and on their new home by Christmas and all I wish is that she could help me to get my new home here in my new state. Karen is simply the best!

Karen was a great realter and resource for us. We were moving from out of town and didn’t know the best areas or schools. Karen assisted us throughout the entire process. She took extra time to understand our needs and made suggestions for us. She even referred us to all our service providers and workers for home remodels and repairs. I don’t know what we would have done without her. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a smooth process, honest realter that goes the extra mile to support you.

Oh my goodness, so much to say. She was there for us every step of the way. Karen is extremely knowledgable, kept in touch with us. Worked around our crazy schedules. I would trust her in every step of the buying and selling process. Karen is one of those exceptional agent/brokers who deserve every bit of praise she gets!

This is my 2nd time asking Karen’s help with my real estate need. She is the best agent by a wide-margin in my experience. She is so knowledgeable about properties in the area and things that can be broken inside/outside the property (this is the huge PLUS since we're not buying a new home). Karen is very professional, courteous and patient throughout the process of selling our home. The bonus is she even got us above the listing price!

Karen makes life easy either you are a buyer or a seller. Very helpful in couching , takes time to explain timelines. This is our second time with Karen. She is organized and hard working. She is our angel.

Karen and her team are very experienced, hard working and knowledgeable about the market. We are very pleased with Karen and her professional services. She is a very responsive and excelent agent!I would hihgly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a house or trying to sell one.

I’ve worked with Karen to buy a house and sell a house, and I wouldn’t work with any other agent at this point. Both times she has made the transaction easy, and worked extremely hard to get us exactly what we want. She knows the area and the market very well, and when it came time to sell, she made our house look incredible, and got us a price much higher than we were expecting. If we buy another house in the area in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate to have Karen help us again.

Cameo and Karen were an awesome team in helping us find a home! We were moving to the area from Ohio without much notice, and they were there to help us find a home to line up perfectly with our move! With the market as crazy as it is, we weren't able to secure a home on our house-hunting trip out to California, so Cameo took us on virtual tours of many homes and used her knowledge of our wants and needs from our in-person visit to help us find a great home in a great neighborhood! Karen and Cameo made sure our house was move-in ready for us, and made our cross-country move go so smoothly. We can't thank them enough for their help in finding us our home and helping us through the process of buying a home in a brand new market and state for us. We will recommend this duo to anyone else we know moving to the area!

Cameo and Karen are AMAZING. They don't stop at the extra mile for their clients. They go as far as they need to go to make sure their clients best served and successful in their real estate transaction. We knew our property could go quickly in the market, but we had some unique issues to work with. None of which deterred Cameo. She was on top of the transaction from start to finish and had issues fixed before we even knew they existed. They are compassionate about what they do and their dedication to their clients shows. They even put in the research and interviewed out-of-state agents before they recommended one for a new purchase! There is no one else in Southern California I would trust with my real estate transactions.
