Experience is something you cannot buy — it is earned. With more than 25 years’ real estate experience across New Zealand and the United Kingdom, Karen brings deep market knowledge, strategic thinking, and proven negotiation expertise to every client relationship. Her career has spanned both large international firms and boutique agencies, where achieving strong outcomes and maximising value for clients became second nature. Fifteen years ago, Karen and her family relocated from the UK to Christchurch shortly after the 2010/11 earthquakes. Never deterred, she is proud to have played a role in the city’s rebuild and evolving real estate landscape. Karen holds several higher education qualifications and achieved entry as a Member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (MRICS), a globally recognised mark of excellence within the property and construction industry. In 2024, she further enhanced her professional development completing both Branch Manager and Agent REA qualifications. Now joining Arizto as a residential sales agent, Karen brings her extensive commercial negotiation experience into the residential market. Known for her honest, down-to-earth and warm approachable nature, she builds strong relationships, communicates clearly, and guides clients confidently through the sales process. With two children growing fast, Karen is excited for this next chapter, helping homeowners achieve successful sales with clarity, confidence, and results. Call Karen today. She loves to chat.
