Kara Bartels, RE/MAX Alliance

Kara Bartels, RE/MAX Alliance Let Me Take KARA-U! My name is Kara Bartels. I especially enjoy the people, seasons, culture and many activities available to us in our local area.

I am a real estate broker associate and was born and raised in Waverly, IA and have lived in the Cedar Valley my entire life. In my practice of real estate, I am well known for great customer service, consistent communication, strong attention to detail and ensuring a positive experience for all parties in a transaction; buyers, sellers, cooperating agents. My approach to any transaction is this, "it is about the people, not the agent". During the last 12 years, I have helped many reach their real estate goals. "I am not number one, YOU are!"

Let’s schedule a time to meet and talk about the possibilities! 🤩

…because that’s what you’re living in every month. If you can afford it, buy now, negotiate for what you want, refinance later. Simple.

Happy Friday! I want to share a quote that really resonates with me:
“Desire and Decision trump everything.” - Jack Bannister

This could go a multitude of different ways, and you could use this quote in pretty much any situation. For me, I have the DESIRE to help more people buy and sell real estate, so I am making the DECISION to do so. 🥰 With that said, if you want to meet up and talk real estate (or non-real estate), let’s get you on my calendar! Send me a message and a date/time, and let’s do it! Your girl loves great conversation and hot green tea! 😍🫖

For now, take that quote, apply it to your life and RUN WITH IT!

Read that again. 🤍

There’s a lot your real estate agent will probably never tell you.

The missed meals. The family plans we cancel. The miles we drive. The money we spend before ever making a dollar. The deals we fight for when you’re not in the room.

You see the showing, the offer and the keys.

For many of us, this isn’t just real estate. It’s how we take care of the people we love.

Be kind to your Realtor. You never know what they’re carrying while helping you get home.

Your Realtor, Kara 👠
