Karen Goodell Associate Broker ERA Team VP Real Estate

"It is my privilege to highly recommend Karen Goodell as your Real Estate Broker. Karen is professional, intelligent, and more than able in her profession. As an Executor of a large Estate, Karen came highly recommended in selling our Chautauqua vacation home. The recommendation as "the only Broker you should consider" became true from our first meeting in the dining room of our vacation home until the day when she informed our team that our home had been sold. Karen brought with her a vision on how best to sell our lake front property which included minor renovations and staging the rooms. All of which Karen not only directed but she rolled up her sleeves and pitched in as well. Lastly, Karen is a good and kind person who became part of our team. There was not a moment though out the whole course of time that I was at all ever concerned, and at the end of the day she did very well for the Estate in achieving its goals. The lake front property that we were selling had some challenges. It required a vision on how best to sell the property, but it also required a well-established Broker who had the right contacts and connections with buyers who could afford a higher-end property. Karen filled these requirements in spades."

"I can't say enough about Karen's work ethic, knowledge and professionalism. She is an expert in the Chautauqua Institution housing market. I valued her input and was very satisfied with the outcome. She was very responsive to every email, text and phone call I made. She is the best of the best and I wish her much continued success!"

"Karen Goodell helped us buy our house in 1998 so there was no question about whom we would ask to sell it in 2023. Karen was always responsive, professional, and works hard for her clients. She knows the Chautauqua market intimately and is able to translate that knowledge into a sale. We would never trust anyone else like we trusted Karen. She is simply the best!"

"We've worked with Karen a few times over the years, and I wouldn't want to work with anyone else. The collaborative approach with Karen and her team was excellent. Her knowledge of Chautauqua Institution was a perfect match."

"There are not enough superlatives to describe Karen and the service she and Nickole provided. Their staging of my property was phenomenal; their guidance on pricing & negotiations spot on. When it came time to get a few repairs done, Karen was there with suggestions and was also willing to arrange to get work done. She helped me find a mover, helped me get the house cleaned. Bottom line, she was full service; no task was too large or too small. AND, it was all done with an upbeat attitude. I was truly satisfied with the sale price and the buyers. I would highly recommend Karen Goodell as I cannot imagine a better real estate broker."
