We just love Kari. She is the exact opposite of those high pressure realtors who plaster their Glamour Shots photos on every billboard and leave promotional bottles of barbecue sauce on your front porch! Kari is a genuine, down to earth realtor with a fully intact moral compass. She was born and raised in the greater Lynchburg area, so she knows every nook and cranny of this market and cares deeply about her community. She also has long standing relationships with local contractors and renovation companies which means she can usually get you an "unofficial" but qualified ballpark estimate on any changes you're considering on that perspective house. When we found Kari our needs were very niche and somewhat evolving, but that didn't stop her from showing us over 30 houses! She never complained or made us feel like we needed to "just buy something!" She is a confident professional that lets her clients lead the process and patiently remains prepared to answer questions or offer suggestions. For us we never found that perfect house, but we ended up with something better....a lifelong friend.

My wife and I have had a fantastic experience using Kari as our realtor in selling our home and purchasing another. She was consistent and clear with communication and we were never left in the dark to figure anything out on our own, she was direct in her recommendations, and understanding of our concerns. She was able to get us a great deal during the negotiation process. I would highly recommend Kari to anyone who wants a realtor who pays attention to detail from the first walk-through to closing.

Kari listed my home, which was quite remote. She went to the property several times to arrange and check on things, as I was out of state. She went above and beyond. She was extremely responsive and communicative. I'm happy that I met Kari and she was the one that helped facilitate the sale of my home.

Kari is the most professional and through real estate broker we have ever had the pleasure to work with. As out of town buyers, her local knowledge and expertise was invaluable to us in making smart choices and closing this property purchase.
Her circle of qualified professionals have been a great resource for us in making any changes to our property.

If you are reading this, congratulations on finding a remarkable realtor, and rest easy. Your search is over. Kari Carlile is the single most gracious, professional, knowledgable, and kind individual I have ever had the great pleasure of working with. As a realtor, her connections to local organizations, businesses, and firms GREATLY aided my pre-purchase process (inspections, repairs, etc). As a person, her heart for her community and for families finding a comfortable home made me feel heard and safe. Kari made it clear that her priority was finding me something safe, affordable, comfortable, and that met my needs, and was readily available by phone, email, text, and in person for anything this first-time home buyer had need for. I will surely return to use Kari for all my future purchases and sales.

Kari Carlile is the full package realtor. She is kind, caring, knowledgeable, down to earth, and in incredibly hard worker. My husband and I have had the privilege of working with Kari on several property transactions, both buying and selling, and she most recently helped us land our dream family home while working with my mom to buy the neighboring property. As I sit in our new living room reflecting on God’s many blessings, I am so grateful for Kari! She proactively advocated for us every step of the process from the first showing thru closing, and was very transparent and responsive in her communication. All qualities a buyer needs in a high stakes deal. As we prepare to list our previous home for sale my mind is at ease knowing we’re in capable hands.

Kari is so much fun to work with! She is flexible and helpful in finding a home that suits the needs of the buyer. She gives sound advice and direction to first time home buyers, and she efficiently stays in contact with her previous clients. I absolutely would recommend using Kari the next time you need to buy or sell a house!
