About Me
“I take great pride in knowing I help others make their real estate dreams come true.”
My Story
Let me introduce myself, My name is Karen and I am a Realtor with RE/MAX Eastern Edge Realty. I am a figure skating coach and a dog mom to my little fur baby, Rosie. When I am not working, I love gardening/landscaping and I have a passion for travelling.
I grew up just across the bay in Dunville where I started figure skating at a very young age. It quickly became a passion for me, so much so that I made a career out of it for almost 30 years! Skating actually brought me here to Marystown back in 2007 where I became the head coach of the Ice Crystal SC and Cutting Edge SC in Fortune, where I still continue to coach part time. Skating has instilled in me a strong work ethic, the ability to set goals and go after what I want. I can relate many aspects of my real estate career to the skill set I have learned as an athlete and a coach.
I started my real estate career in May 2016 and could not be more grateful for the life I have built today because of it. I take great pride in knowing I help others make their real estate dreams come true, all while having some great laughs along the way 😉
For those of you that have worked with me in the past, you know I like to have fun! This industry has not only allowed me to meet so many amazing people, but to genuinely make a difference in their journey to find their dream home.
If you had told me 10 years ago that I would be a successful Realtor on the Burin Peninsula I would have never believed it. But I have quickly realized that I have found something that truly brings me so much joy (just like skating did all those years ago). Whether it is prepping clients for a new listing, helping “Come From Aways” move to the Island, helping folks come back to their roots or helping first time home buyers purchase their new home, I LOVE IT ALL!!!
I have earned many awards since starting my business including:
- Executive Award in 2017 and 2018
- 100% Club Award in 2019 and 2020
- Platinum Award in 2021.
I could not have done this without the support of my amazing clients over the years, so from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU ALL!!! I cannot wait for what’s to come.
"In the past year there have been many changes in my life and I found myself looking for a suitable home. It was a big decision for me and Karen Jones was with me every step of the way, she answered every call, text and email, she found houses to look at that fit what I was looking for. I never felt like I was looking for a house, we were looking for my forever home. Being a professional, it was easy to recognize her knowledge, respect, honest nature which showed thru at every house we looked at."
"Top notch professional service! Karen helped us every step of the way
and made the entire transaction a pleasure."
"When we found our house on line Karen came to our aid. We were in Ontario and wanted to buy our new home in Marystown. She went out her way to make this happen. We were amazed as to how she handled all the paperwork back and forth on the computer. I have bought other properties in the past but this went the easiest by far. Karen is a pro. Would recommend her to anyone who asked for help."
